They are upset for good reason. They're angry at the injustice of the world, afraid of the humans, angry about corruption and power and hierarchy, all sorts of things.
At that point, the issue then isn't on the individual - the issue is the systemic problems that need to be fixed. And that takes time. Nothing's all going to get better once we kill Louis, and even when we fix things, they may still yet be broken. It'll take lots of time, but we hope not to put a bandage on a gushing wound, but find a way to suture it, messy as it may be.
Things keep getting... stirred up. But when this is over I can just relax and finally clear my head. Same as anyone else that's worn out after all this.

You ought to tell me about it, anyway. What's the worst that happens?

I'm fine. Feel like I've complained enough about my stuff. I'm just tired, and this is almost over, and that's all, so...

So what do you think about all of this? Our last week here and that... race? Apparently?
