Luka's confusion makes sense, and Eight lets him work through his thoughts for several moments before he responds. The problem, of course, is that Gyre also throws in a question seemingly out into the air of the room that could be answered by Luka or by Eight himself and.

He doesn't know yet who Gyre was referring to, but he does know that the answer to Gyre's question is the same as the answer to all three of Luka's questions so he calmly answers them all at once:

"Yes."
