You see "exclusive" I see "cumulative".

Guess so. I see "exclusive" because if fear of harm was any factor, he wouldn't have called her to come pick him up in the first place. They didn't show him a picture of her, so why get her involved almost immediately? He had to know they were watching him (they had recordings of his activities). Why let them know of someone else in his life they could threaten almost immediately?

Had he been afraid for her life, he wouldn't have had her drive all the way out there to pick him up and then use that time to dump her. He called her to come pick him up, because she's his assistant. He broke up with her, because she was wanting to have a serious relationship instead of being just a ****-buddy, something that was building before his adventure when she wanted to celebrate, but he wanted to celebrate with Sydney.

The pieces fit better for me that way.
