There's a finality there that Carter can't fight, can't argue with. Because he hasn't just been kidnapped, he's been given away. Even if he made it out of here, it wouldn't just be Moreau's men after him, it would be his own parents.
For a moment he gets the crazy idea of just camping out in the ER's supply closet. He can just sleep in the empty rooms, eat at the cafeteria and work the rest of the time. Maybe the nightshifts. A little doctor goblin, helping out in secret.
But it's gone immediately, driven out by the thought of Moreau's men – maybe including Eliot – getting sent to the ER to bring him back and clean house while they're at it. No, he can't do it. He can't ever go back.
"W-what's there left to fight for? I don't..." He shakes his head, distressed. "I don't know what to fight for anymore."
