[B is, at heart, an optimist. But he's also seen a whole lot of really rotten people in positions of power. He's just not able to believe that everyone running a ship has the best interests of their passengers in mind. Especially not when one of them chops off body parts in response to transgressions, and another spies on people for the rest of their lives...

But he also can admit he's only seen or heard of five other ships total. Maybe the rest are better. And he's not really here to argue.]

I know. I know it's not cheap. I just. I guess it took me by surprise. And Yelena didn't take it well at all.

[There's a sigh, there.]

She's not taking any of this well.
