[Zack has no frame of reference for anything that happens on the Barge, so his instincts immediately return to his training. If somebody's been forcibly changed, it's PsyOps, and PsyOps means they've been turned. That's how he begins to grasp the concept.

He feels pride (I would rather die than go back there) and then an immense, overwhelming grief. It's only been a few months but the wound is raw, Tinga is the salt. Ben had chosen to die rather than go back. Zack would have seen it as quitting, not trying hard enough, but the truth was if he'd been in that situation, he would have chosen the same path.]


He's fine. Whatever they're saying, he didn't do it.

[Sharp, barely restrained anger. And fear too, that his brother will be taken from him if he's wrong. So he just won't be wrong.]
