Gepard hates to admit it but Sampo is right. If this was an operation that they can easily sort out, Bronya or Pela can find a different person to join them. But as it stands, the role landed to Sampo, no doubt for his ability in the field. The fact that they even managed to catch him in time for the mission feels more deliberate than a coincidence, though Pela would've most likely found another way to get ahold of him if he weren't in jail.

He throws Sampo a look of suspicion, arms folded across his chest. It makes sense that he'd offer to help out, especially when they're on the same team for once. And he's not going to lie that his features are probably too distinctive, but—

"How certain are we that you won't do something ridiculous on my face?"

He's been too wary, he knows, but he's also aware of Sampo and his tricks. The last thing he wants is to walk out of the hotel looking like a clown. That's not going to help their mission at all.

But if the guy can assure him that this will work, then Gepard will have no choice but to relent.
