Well, do the scientists normally tell the guinea pigs what the point of all the 'research' is?

[The air quotes couldn't be seen through the audio channels, but it his tone made his thoughts on the subject amply clear.]

They haven't told us much, but I don't think they're gonna. Word is that things are divided internally too, so there's no way we're gonna get any straight info if we ask 'em. It's why I'm planning on waiting it out until the truth reveals itself.

...Unfortunately, I've got a hunch that it could take a while.
