"I suppose it hasn't been too terrible. All things considered." Hang on. Is this teasing? It's a little bit somber, but Ford's still coming off the revelation that this wasn't all one big lie, which lightens it a lot. This is teasing. They work frighteningly well together, despite their occasional differences of opinion, and at points, when Ford's not thinking about how Bill's going to use this portal to get access to an unsuspecting universe and Ford's going to be confronted with a choice that's looking more horrible by the day, yes, it's even been fun.
It feels a little bit like they could do anything. Ford finds himself wishing for a moment that Bill had a goal besides...
"When you get there, to their dimension," Ford asks, a somber expression replacing the lightness from before, "what are you going to do?"
He knows he won't like the answer. He knows it won't stop him from helping Bill with the portal. He asks anyway.
