What is the question French asks his father?

In Chapter 22, French visits his father’s room. Jean asks French what he’s looking for out there, and French explains that he’s looking for Minerva, since it’s the right thing to do. Then he angrily asks his father if he even bothered to look for him and Mitch. Jean explains that he looked for them every day, and that finding their lost community was the reason for bringing the Council and the others together.
