Maureen Hendrix, Staff Sergeant
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
record actions in progress, hijacked to elevate to QEC by stephanie
|
||
|
||
Maureen is working on something plant related, soil stuff. She's
|
||
interrupted by Eva coming in. They need to convince Maureen to
|
||
betray the primary mission and assist them with the hijacking of
|
||
the Melchizedek, machinary left behind on 4. They need to take the
|
||
ship to get Jerome if they want any chance of success. Doing so is
|
||
mutany. But they have her embryo in stasis and it's not planned to
|
||
be thawed out until the settlers arrive. That will be long after
|
||
they're dead and gone. She'll never know her child. Steal the
|
||
Melchy, re-implant the embryo, take control of the mission from
|
||
Prezzi and rescue Jerome. Afterwards won't they just take it back
|
||
from her? What do they have in mind for that? We need Spinelli or
|
||
Reed for the implanting and also to get Prezzi clear of the ship
|
||
itself. Once they have Jerome they'll demand things before return
|
||
of the ship. It's the only way around the courts martial they'd
|
||
face.
|
||
|
||
There is no planned connection from Earth in their lifetimes. They
|
||
have 43 crew (or 41) and that's it until the end of their days.
|
||
This mission is one way and they're to accomplish whatever they
|
||
can before the clock runs out. Why listen to the Ecclesia that's
|
||
not here? Why defer to Prezzi if she's willing to sacrifice their
|
||
limited crew. They are not disposable even if they volunteered to
|
||
die.
|
||
|
||
Side note, why did Stephanie volunteer for this? Is she hiding
|
||
something? The cheery, up-beat personality has accepted her
|
||
eventual death? Or was there something at home. Illness! She was
|
||
granted a cure of she couldn't afford in exchange for service. She
|
||
had days to live, now she has a life, but not at home. There's no
|
||
one for her back there either.
