"No alarm clock," River says, which (to judge by the intent look on her face) is probably comprehension. "Okay."
The majority of the group have made it to the air lock by now, but not all. There's a good handful of wounded (and occasionally unconscious) people scattered around the floor, and a few more limping towards the shuttle more slowly than the rest. This isn't a group that necessarily helps each other, it seems -- not all that surprising, since it's really the remnants of three or four mistrustful groups.
Wounded does not necessarily mean unable to fire. All the same, it's time to judiciously begin the process of restraining them with more zip ties.
Even if it slows down their pursuit of the others, it's better than leaving wounded, angry, and armed enemies at their backs.
