Jean definitely remembers the moment Annie grabbed him, but he pushes the thought aside. It's not important or something to get into right now. Armin explained what happened there, anyway. Back then they had no idea. Armin might have suspected what the Female Titan really was, but no one realized anything about Reiner or Bertholt.

"Connie had to write a report about what happened at the castle. He talked out loud about the events so he wouldn't forget anything. So yeah, he told me about that." While being heartbroken about Reiner's betrayal. Connie took it even worse than he did. He's always been the more sentimental one. Even if he tried to curse out Reiner and Bertholt's (and even Ymir's) names, Jean could tell he was more hurt than angry.

Even days after they had returned. Even weeks. Even as they prepared to leave for Shiganshina knowing they'd face their former friends again. Connie had been emotional. Sasha, too. Both had wondered if they could do it. But they also swore they would with a brave facade on that Jean completely saw through. He had known he'd have to likely steel their resolve.

Just like he had to, his own. While he wasn't as emotional about it, he was hurt, too.

"... Connie really misses you." He finally says, after a slightly longer silence, not bringing attention to his feelings. "He tries to pretend he doesn't, but he sometimes slips up when we're alone on patrols."
