"Honestly, if it comes down to that-" which he doesn't want it to, but, "-I'd rather just EMP the whole city. Shut off the power grid. Shutting down the power grid gets the people too. That's why we didn't see 'em out on the street the night of the black-out. It wouldn't hurt 'em. They wouldn't even notice."

He doesn't want it to come to that, though. And the idea of doing that would tear him up. It'd save them. Maybe stop new people from coming in for a while.
