[If Hiro was frightened before, it's nothing compared to the panic that jolts through him when Tadashi appears at the garage door. What had been an expression of bottled worry turns into open terror, and he glances back and forth between Callaghan and Tadashi, trying to gauge the professor's reaction. He's afraid of where this is going; this is exactly the kind of thing he was scared of happening.
He doesn't think for a minute that Callaghan wouldn't hurt his brother if it came down to a fight, even if the microbots were in his total control.]
Tadashi. Don't move. Please. [It comes off a little more shaky and nervous than he'd intended, and his voice cracks embarrassingly, but he ignores that. Never mind if he is bleeding, never mind that until a second ago the microbots had been pointing daggers at his skull. He flashes a look at Callaghan.] He doesn't have anything to do with this. Leave him alone. You got what you came for.
