They had also determined that the first order of business was to determine if they were actually back. There was, in their opinions, a high probability that - if they had been sent to an alternate dimension as had happened to Dr. Lenox - they could not force the mark to send them back without completing their "task" - whatever it may be, especially considering that Emilia still had the mark.
