Palmer respects Harley's courage, especially since he's a self-admitted coward who simply can't imagine taking a risk for the group like this.

He watches Furiosa go to get 2V, waiting for orders from Furiosa or Harley. They'll have to enter the open, and he's afraid the creatures won't let them go without a fight. What's going on, anyway? Why are the creatures so hellbent on giving them trouble?
"What do you want?" he asks them, both challenging and genuinely curious. They don't seem interested in conversation, but he wants to pry for information. They're clearly intelligent and social, if only among themselves. Maybe, if they can speak or could be bothered to answer, at least he'll get some insight into why they're attacking people. "The ship?"
