Scene 1C
CARTER
Hell-o operator.
​
CARTER
Before you start, I know we’re not supposed to use the admiral’s frequency for anything that isn’t official business. But there were some things I wanted to discuss.
​
CARTER
Now, I sent the last of my divorce papers up to you
today so send them on for me asap and...
​
OPERATOR
Why are you breaking comms protocol to talk about your divorce?
​
CARTER
What, you’ve never hijacked the dive channel for a cross-station booty call? Or to uncover a conspiracy?
​
OPERATOR
Not this again. You’ll get yourself fired.
​
CARTER
Look, I'll never be over losing Veronica. Sara might've moved on but I can't. I shouldn’t have let her go that day, those stupid observation deck grav couplers would’ve failed no one.
​
CARTER
Recently though, I’ve been thinking - all this time I’ve blamed myself but what if it’s not my fault?
​
OPERATOR
It doesn't have to be anyone's fault.
​
CARTER
Yes, it does. And if it isn’t someone else’s fault, it’s mine.
​
CARTER
Just hear me out okay? Something doesn’t feel right - someone did something and my little girl’s gone. We didn’t even get a body. Whoever it is has to pay - she was a child.
​
CARTER
Sorry, I… I don’t like who I am recently. Just help me put this to bed. I have a lead. I’ve sent you some recordings. Listen to them, please?
