All his secrets, all his undercover work. Every choice, all well thought out. Would finally have paid off. But if he is wrong. Then everything he did was backwards and when humanity might have and a slim chance at surviving the monsters. He has now put the final nail in the coffin. And has doomed all of humanity.
