[Secretary of Foreign Affairs Alex Rivera talks to Kara Green]
Kara, glad I caught you.
Secretary Rivera. What brings you to my office?
I'm worried, Kara.
About what, sir?
About you, about whose team you're on.
Sir, I am just as committed to the recovery of the United States as I was when I first landed in St. Louis with Captain Chandler.
Ah, yes. The great Captain Chandler. The legend, the man that we devoted enormous amounts of time and resources to get out of trouble.
I understand your concern, sir, but now that Captain Chandler has uncovered a genocide in Asia...
A-Alleged genocide. Kara, you have to remember, we're living in a post-apocalypse. Facts and truths are just as much the victim of this plague as everything else. Right now, the best thing we can do is focus on the American people.
I'm not sure exactly what you're suggesting. Can you be more specific?
What I'm suggesting, Kara, is that while everyone is looking eastward, our country is collapsing beneath our feet. And when the chips fall, it's important you know who your friends are. Is that clear enough?
Yes, sir.
I'm glad.
