Unfortunately, Alex wasn't the decision maker and at the present time, he was right there with Tony's way of thinking. While it might not be exactly what the Govenors were wanting of their Sentinels and Fatemarked, this is what they had. Sorry, Govenors!!

Alex had almost expected the 'right now,' but he's well aware that they were invited here to mingle and meet their fellow recruits; leaving early would certainly be cause for suspicion for anyone watching for such. A gradual build of friendship would make Tony's plan of after dinner snooping more believable. You meet a friend at a party and get to know them better later...

Although Alex 'getting to know' an attractive young man had always had entirely different connotations. The thought brings a grin to his lips, but he nods at the plan.

"Sounds as doable as any other option..." A beat, brow rising. "How are you with computers and he like?"

Because if this was even remotely like it was in the movies, they'd need someone capable of hacking the system and getting doors open. Yes, Alex could do a certain amount of physical forcing of doors, but it would look far less innocent than the door opening on its own.
