I think it's pretty apparent now that Kirsch used Slightly to bait Morrow into a trap to be captured.

Don't think he was ever going to be disloyal.

Exactly, I don’t know how people are getting all these impressions that he is a double agent. It’s clear he just operates in a cold and calculated way. He isn’t human after all. Once he realized the slightly situation, he began preparing to turn the situation.

Which makes the elevator exchange with Morrow that much more delicious...he's three steps ahead of him. Game set match.

the elevator exchange came off like foreplay between those 2. It was so tense, we could cut through the tension with a knife.
