[Hermann is craftily hidden in a clothing rack near the back of the store. Maybe it isn't the best hiding place, but he figures he can just teleport to a new one if need be. All he has to do is stay within earshot and be ready for the signal.
He has his cane in one rubber-gloved hand, a loaded syringe in the other. His heart is pounding in his ears. He's been indirectly responsible for human loss before, in the form of deployed Jaeger pilots, but this is... very different. The only thing that keeps him steady is thinking of this as part of a larger machine. A larger machine designed to either get him home, or get a message back to the world he left behind.
If he doesn't do this, many more people will die.
Hermann freezes when he hears Newt shouting. There's no backing out now.]
