Garibaldi has no sense of the passage of time, doesn’t know he’s been in a coma for weeks. The last thing he remembers is desperately trying to pass on what he’d learned about the assassination plot against the President to Sinclair, praying he’s in time to prevent it. So when he finally regains consciousness, it’s the first thing on his mind.

 
“Did you stop them? They’re gonna kill the President!”
 

It’s a punch to the gut knowing he’s failed, that despite everything, President Santiago is dead, and Sinclair is no longer in command.
 

He wishes he hadn’t woken at all.
