Jake decides to attempt his own brand at smoothing things over, so he steps up to the person guarding the entrance, hands held up loosely to show that he's not holding a weapon.

"Hey. My name's Jake, I'm from a group that lends emergency aid. We travel around helping out people in trouble, and thing is? We go a bit further than most. To the edges of the world and beyond, so we pick up all kinds of people. But we all want to help out. I know you're probably worried about a nefarious motive, and after what's happened here I don't blame ya. But we want to be put to work helping you, and I hope you'll let us prove it."

Yeah, he's just trying for the sincere approach here. The old puppy dog eyes.
