Summary
Grantaire leans against the edge of the door and looks out at him in bemusement. "You're the smartest man I know, Enjolras. I know your memory isn't this bad."
Enjolras's smile fades away to a bewildered frown. "What?"
"They're out again. They're always out on Thursdays. It's date night. I know you know this, I've only told you half a dozen times. And yet you keep showing up."

Summary
The possibility of not recruiting Neil at all is never discussed.
It brings up a lot of questions, the protagonist thinks later that night, staring up at the ceiling. He will recruit Neil because he knows who Neil will become. It’s a stunted paradoxical little loop. How did it start?
The protagonist knows how it will end.
Unless…unless he walks away. Lying in the dark, wide awake, the protagonist is tempted.
(Can we change things, if we do it differently?)
But…
“What’s happened, happened,” the protagonist reminds himself.
Besides (selfish, selfish). He wants to see Neil again.Somewhere in between the end and the beginning, Neil and the protagonist manage to find a little time.
