[Barbara looks exhausted, but if anything, the light in her eyes is fiercer than ever. She was thrown some curve balls, sure, but nothing that could crush her.

She's becoming inured to trauma, she thinks. She's not sure how to feel about that.

Her voice is a bit dull when she speaks, thick with deep weariness and deeper aches, but it's steady.]

If you know me at all, please check in.

[The worst part, really, was what she couldn't see. She hadn't contacted anybody, save her hijack of Iris' call, and it ate at her, what the people she loved might be facing.

She needs to know they're all right.]

I wouldn't say usually, not it's not particularly uncommon.

Usually, though...people come back.

['What would Jim Kirk do?']

Is there any possibility of returning for them?

We could ask the Admiral, but that doesn't usually get us anywhere.

Hijacking the ship is possible, but risky.

Who attempted it last?

[The smile is more of a grimace, really.] That's...complicated.

Is it a personal matter?

[Since he wasn't here and all.]

Not for me. Not exactly.

But - one of our Wardens, Toshiko Sato, went a bit crazy. I'm still not sure just how in control she was, but - she jacked into the ship. The changes got progressively worse, until people were being tortured in Zero.

A few days later she came clean and put a stop to it.

[A long pause his end. Very unpleasant things happen on this boat, huh.]

May I inquire as to what changes occurred specifically?
