Coulson's really missing his sidearm right about now, so he understands that feeling. Any kind of weapon at all would be nice, but clearly they're not that lucky.

"Good idea. If something does come at us, I don't really like the idea of being unarmed when it does." And unscrewing a chair leg is vastly preferable to bashing it against something, but when push comes to shove, Coulson won't hesitate if that becomes necessary.

"How about we take a second or two and scope out a couple of rooms each and come back in ten minutes? Or less." He doesn't much like the idea of splitting up; if that makes him seem paranoid, well, he has no problem admitting that.
