Shae had been nearing her room, when she heard Luis Silva's voice over the intercom. She thought for a moment, trying to remember who the voice belonged to, and recalled it was the man on her team. Grumbling to herself, she turned away from her room, without even having gotten her clothes, and began heading toward the science department. Her progress was slow, however, due to her wounded leg and the IV stand she was using as a crutch getting caught on occasion. As she went, she heard multiple things over the intercom, including Luis saying his notes would be left in the Science Department. Eventually, she reached the science department, and was appalled to see it. Her sanctum was a mess. Everything had been thrown about in the crash.
She slows walks through the wreckage, a depressed look on her face, until she notices an old friend of hers. Although it was wrinkled and had a few things thrown on top of it, her overcoat had still been in the department when she retreated to her bunk. She picks it up, and puts it on, to cover the bandages over her abdomen, then sighs as she sees the many small holes and tears in it. Continuing to scour, she finds the notes Luis Silva had mentioned, and begins looking over them. Although the calculations appear to be valid, Shae stands resolute against herself that it won't work. With complete disregard for her companion, she tears the papers in half, then tosses them aside.
Rummaging, about, she finds a small pad of paper, and reaches up to her ear to grab her pencil out of habit. However, there wasn't a pencil to be grabbed, so she instead reaches into one of the pockets of her overcoat. She feels a pencil that had been snapped in half, and angrily pulls it out. She finds a relatively clear spot on the "floor", and sits down, making notes in the pad, occasionally tearing a page off, crumpling it up, and tossing it aside.
