Raglan is out the back door and in a car to the next scam by the time they let Louis in.
Daniel should be, too. He tells him as much. He's always told him that, about Louis. The actually dangerous one, which he still believes, even after all that's happened. You can trust an ancient to be committed to ancient stuff. Louis' too young. Too unpredictable. Daniel remembers now, right?
Whatever.
Bailing, even after such dedicated ignoring (well, it was dedicated at first, after that he just got preoccupied), seems like too much. He still cares about him. It was still him, telling him to live. He's still who Daniel decided to die over when he pulled the pin on the grenade. Did die over, ultimately. It's just—
It's just he kinda doesn't want to talk to him about it. About any of it. Frustrating. But he stays. Opens a window (legal in the UK? was the building never updated?), burns a cigarette, puts Raglan's half-eaten dinner in the microwave. Stupid. Louis will be able to tell.

Whatever, again.
Daniel opens the door.
