"We need actual details," Kitty added.

“Woah hey. You got it all wrong,” TK said. “The Trash King doesn’t care about people! He wants your trash!”

A beat.

“Allegedly.”

"He's been taking people for two and half weeks, asshole," Steve snarled. "Where is he? I'll give him all the trash he can handle."

Possibly by kicking him straight into a trash barge.

"Allegedly, what the hell does that mean?" Diego asked.

It meant TK had watched a lot of cop shows and thought he knew how plausible deniability worked.

“You guys seem real stressed,” he said. “Maybe you should try the hole app! It’s weirdly soothing, making everything fall down a hole. . . .”

"Yeah?" Miguel narrowed his eyes at the raccoon. "Show us this app." Maybe he could reverse-engineer it or something.

"No," Steve said flatly. "You took twenty minutes to tell us 'look at a pile of trash' and 'there's an app for that'." He got a little heated at the last part. "We're gonna lock you up and check your intel."

"What he said," Diego said, nodding his head over at Steve. "Then we'll consider if you get any reward."

Spoiler: Diego would say absolutely not.

“What?! I was super helpful!” TK protested. “It’s not my fault you suck at interrogation! Gimme the thing!”

"I'm not stringing you up. Yet," Miguel pointed out. "What else do we need to know?"

For the record, yes, Liam absolutely valued the people over the stuff. But given that the raccoons were apparently considering the people an afterthought, he was trying to appeal to their sense of priority here.

"Honestly," he told the raccoon. "You're probably better off staying locked up." Considering how often these sorts of things ended in a fight...
