Remember how we saw the scarab smoking slightly when Jaime picked it up in the flashback? Maybe the scarab was damaged during the explosion at Kord Industries, and intentionally or unintentionally, while putting Jaime in full control, he repaired whatever damage occurred during the explosion. Maybe the Reach couldn't bring it on mode because of this damage, but since the damage was repaired, they may be able to get it back on mode without killing Jaime. Whatever it is, Impulse definitely knows or suspects more than he's sharing with even Jaime. Remeber his reaction?
