"Thank you," she says to Moran—he's also unknown to her, but if he's willing to risk dropping his real name to anyone who catches them...

Then she turns to Jacob and asks, "How is your acting?"

She's not much of an actor herself—not for lack of skill, really, but mostly for lack of committment—but she can be intimidating as hell. And she has a mean sabacc face, for whatever that's worth. Which may or may not be the ideal way to go, so Jacob might have to handle any servants they might come across.
