Captain Anderson: Well. This is exciting.
Ambassador Udina: Well, what about Shepherd? She grew up in the colonies.
Anderson: She knows how tough life can be out there. She was the only one left when slavers attacked Mindoir.
Udina: Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Shepherd on Elysium during the Skyllian Blitz?
Admiral Hackett: Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Shepherd born in space and... a man?
Udina: Is that the kind of person we want protecting the galaxy? Someone who we have poor records of?
Hackett: I'm bored of this. Let's go get a pizz.
Udina: *Sigh* I'll make the call.
*Jane Shepherd comes into view of the window, she is staring out of it for no particular reason*
Shepherd: Note this window: You ain't gonna be seeing it on the Normandy in-game.
