On 26 May the Kell Hounds were in the [[A2341CA]] system when the executive staff, along with a somewhat recovered Patrick Kell, met to discuss their next moves aboard the ''Cu''. Colonel Kell revealed that he and Janos had planned for "fleeing" into the Combine to throw them off, but knew that either their pursuers or a random patrol would find them sooner rather than later.

While this would recharge the drives in only 25 hours, there was a 28% chance of a misjump by doing so.
