After fifteen minutes of watching the Nektons interact with this "Nereus" character, Finn didn't think his going undetected on the Aronnax for so long was quite as impressive anymore. Because the Nektons didn't think.
When, five minutes later, three of the family members left Kaiko alone with Nereus, Finn wanted to run to the Moon Pool room and smack somebody.
Because, seriously. While Nereus looked like a harmless old man, he had to be anything but. He'd broken into the Aronnax, for crying out loud! Apparently without alerting anyone until somebody noticed a treasure missing. He'd carried the "Chronicle" with ease, while Finn had seen Will struggle a bit with it. And they were leaving that guy with Kaiko?
Then Kaiko literally turned her back on Nereus -while telling him to behave- and had the naivety to be surprised when he was gone.
Finn watched long enough to ensure that Kaiko found Nereus, then searched the tablet until he found the connection to the White Knight's cameras. If he didn't move on now, he wouldn't be able to stop himself from going to Kaiko.
