Cue disaster on the horizon. There's eventually a huge blow-up where Jet's telling her she should help him, he's just about to blow this thing wide open with the gangs and the Dai Li and how the one helps spread the message of 'can't talk about the war here' at the lowest levels in exchange for permission to work from the other. Zura says like hell, you're going to bring them down on us and I can't afford to be linked to you if you're going to do that.
"Where's all that noble's pride, that big talk about being a warrior and protecting your people being your purpose for existing?"
"I failed my people a long time ago."
Jet, being the sweet-talker that he is, puts his foot in it shortly thereafter and leads to the snippet above. Cue screaming in the streets, that boy has managed to get that girl to actually attack him. One way or another, it's broken up and Jet has to leave while his girlfriend is crying, only to encounter his erstwhile bosses.
"You just couldn't stay quiet, could you, kid?"
The Dai Li very shortly get a bruised sacrificial goat to play with.
