I'm not asking anyone to trust me. [ She'd never asked that. Perhaps because she'd known, instinctively, that this would happen—sooner or later. ] The moment our crew and passengers vanished is the moment this stopped being about anything but survival. I'm asking you to stay alive, Hotspur.
You think that us telling you everything will help. [ It's a flat tone, non-accusatory, but frank. ] It won't. It didn't help us, and we were there.
None of you asked to be here. No matter how much we say, and no matter how heartfelt it is, there will always be someone who will think we're lying. We're fine with that—but we don't want anyone else to die. There's been enough of that already.
