- Jane Doe
- I've seen what unrestrained corrupted plating does to a person. Whoever's running this warband doesn't get a second warning.

- Chief Engineer Elena
- Grak's clan splintered after we brought him down, and one warband is reviving his corrupted-plating work with none of the restraint he at least pretended to have.
- PILOT
- Restraint. That is a strange word to use about Grak.
- Jane Doe
- He had exactly enough restraint not to wear the plating himself. That is the whole list. Whoever is running this warband skipped the list entirely.

This conversation uses an older floor number than the current mission length. It is included here for story reference; its original timing may differ from your playthrough.
- Chief Engineer Elena
- Warband broken, experiment logs seized and burned. That particular flavor of stupid does not get to spread.
- Jane Doe
- Grak would almost be proud. Almost.
