Kat: You think I'm a traitor. You think I'm a traitor?
Starbuck: No. I don't think you're a traitor. You're a smart young woman, that's what the old man said. [Kat swallows.] You're just not smart enough to accept who you are. [Kat whimpers.] You see, you lied your way into the company of good people.
Kat begins to weep: Starbuck, don't tell the admiral. Please. Please don't, or I --
Starbuck: Or what?
Kat: Starbuck, please just let me tell him myself. Please just let me. Can you do that?
(Long pause.)
Starbuck, disgusted: Gods.
(Kat sobs as Starbuck leaves her, alone.)
Do you think Kara was voicing internal fears here? That she felt this way sometimes? (I know it wasn't intentional, at least as far as The Passage podcast transcript doesn't acknowledge it at all, and later Kara recants and says "she didn't mean that".)
