It's clear to Steve that Connor is uncertain. He's not fully sure why Connor is obeying him and while he's thankful that Connor agreed, he's uncomfortable himself with how it makes him feel that he did. It's the best way to protect Connor but at the same time, it feels wrong asking him to hide who he is.
"I'm sorry, Connor. I wish that I didn't need to ask you that of you." The lower lip is worried between his teeth again and he crosses his arms over his chest. "I assume they have undercover in the future? Would it help if we considered my request to be like that?" Another pause, then... "Tell me how I can help make this better or easier for you. Do you have questions or concerns?"
