Lt. Alisha Granderson : Everyone's looking for their families. I guess I'm lucky; I already found mine. Now she's gone, and all that's left is what she became.
CMC Jeter : This situation brings out the worst in people, but it also brings out the best.
Lt. Alisha Granderson : Part of me wanted to just stay in Baltimore, try to help repair that place. But how could I, after what she did there?
CMC Jeter : Your place is here, with your shipmates.
Lt. Alisha Granderson : Kara? My own bunkmate won't even look at me. After what my mother did to her...
CMC Jeter : Well, maybe she just doesn't know how to talk about it, because I can tell you, no one here blames you.
Lt. Alisha Granderson : I know that you're supposed to say that, but we walked into that mess because the captain put his faith in me.
CMC Jeter : No one's harder on himself than the captain right now. It's not just on you, you know.
