Lei puts his groceries aside and starts helping Sam while helping him. He asks Sam about David and why the townfolks were afraid of him.Sam said that it was rumoured that David lied about the attack on his base and killed his comrades. Lei thought that this rumour was completely qnd utterly false so he helps Sam clean up and goes on his way.
