When we spoke privately, Hancock put his faith in me. It was his undoing, but...I'm still trying to do good on his word.

[ She watches for his reaction. She watches for any indication on if she assumed their conversation was anything other than "for the good of the ship". If Elizabeth was alone, she could be next to be killed and he came to her as someone with his own demons. His own torment. Putting that aside, she figured as such, he took the responsibility to address the elephant in the room. ]

Maybe in some... divine justice, me putting faith in you will be my undoing too, then. [ It was a joke, a poor joke. She's been hanging out with Jason Todd too much. She gives a half-hearted shrug. ] The first night without Hancock hurt. I wanted to keep doing... what he was doing. Order. Law. Whatever you call it. But, my words are nothing now. People are scared and there's no getting around that. You saw what happened - to me, to Rhys - ... there's going to be paranoia.

[ It's not about her. ]

You can do this. Hancock would be proud, I think. I have faith that you're able to do great things. Talking with a monster was the first step, right?
