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?
