The umbrella prods another jellyfish for a memory of he-who-is-still-jeansed poring over a map.

--she can't have gotten too far.

Another prod, this time more hesitant. Perhaps not hesitant; it is, after all, just an umbrella, it can't seem to emote. It's more as though its movements have slowed and become very deliberate, like moving it has become harder.

It nudges one more jellyfish, one last time, another memory. The viewer of the memory speaks now, to... someone, whose image doesn't seem to load properly.

I'm Taako. Y'know, from TV?

There might have been more to that message, but the umbrella doesn't prod at any more jellyfish, instead starting to float up, up, and up, no longer struggling against its buoyancy.

She can't have gotten far, but where was her starting point? McCree is considering this and takes note of the name Taako again before he realizes the umbrella is floating away.

Hey, wait! He makes a grab for it, not wanting this valuable source of information to just disappear on him. Despite all he's been shown he still feels a little lost. What if he's misunderstanding the memories? What if there are more clues here in these jellyfish that can narrow down his search window? He's still flying blind.

Unfortunately, it would seem that if whatever's in the umbrella can hear McCree, it can't respond again... yet. In the future, however, the umbrella may approach him again. For now, perhaps he should discuss his findings with those who have been in contact with the umbrella before.
