It wasn't guaranteed to work, though, and she certainly didn't want to take the risk if she didn't have to.]
Not reliably. Are you?
[She has no idea what his technical proficiency might include, but he was clearly from a higher-tech setting and he supposedly had an advanced computer brain, so she figures it's a reasonable question.]
It's fine!
