Hi everyone,

I read this and now I'm a bit confused. :-?

"Close the hatch behind us and be ready to open that hatch at a moment’s notice if we come running.”
“You think there may be some surprises left for us?”
I wouldn’t doubt it, but you never know. I’m probably just being overly cautious."
Considering that he adds "but you never know" to his answer.
Shouldn't the answer have been: “I would doubt it, but you never know. I’m probably just being overly cautious."?

Can someone help me out here please?

Yes, that makes more sense to me too.
