i know that canonically, eric knew where jack was working and that he was from the evil company blah blah blah.
but there’s an angst to think about eric not knowing who he was meeting, just that it was a guy from an evil company. and this could be confirmed by how eric is happily telling his old best friend about meeting someone for Senator Reasons™️ and then he slowly realizes it’s jack who is the evil guy. the way he’s talking so fast and then slows down on his talking. the smile leaves his face. he’s face to face with someone he doesn’t know anymore and AHHHH. ANGST.
Wait wait wait wait did he KNOW? I assumed he didn't know who he was meeting and that he just put it together while talking with Jack?? 🥺🤔 I mean either way is good content 💯
i think it’s implied he knows because Eric says he knows what all his friends are doing, he just didn’t know why. but i choose to believe he didn’t know because that’s even more angsty imo.
