Theoretical question: What if it's Tyce who is catching shit over Tupacalypse?
Going off of what I can recall, Eli was more of a friend to Tyce than to Jace, so much so that it was Tyce who supposedly was the one that convinced Eli to go on his stupid little crusade to go find Tupac and pretend to be a fucking SpecOps badass in the middle of a war for an Xboner.
Last we heard of Eli, he was effectively broke with no plans of getting home and somehow needing hours to just get his rocks off once or something in the middle of playing Runescape. That was weeks ago, during which it's safe to assume Jace hasn't been sending money over, much less any communication between the two since if there was a more private means of doing so, they wouldn't have used fucking twitter.
So, our broke Deagleite Eli has no choice but to go to the Embassy (either by his own forced decision or he got dragged there by local authorities for any number of reasons), where under fear of torture he would immediately spill everything. And while the whole thing was Jace's brainchild of idiocy, the one who ultimately convinced Eli to go along with the crackpot plan was Tyce Andrews. Where, if I have this right, it would be seen as Tyce effectively sending in an agent to conduct a kill and rescue operation with full indication it was an American doing it and in one of the most volitile hot zones on the planet that involves people who really would love a reason to attack America.
I don't think the government would simply brush this nonsense off as three morons with too much money and not enough brain cells.
