"I'm glad to see you, too, despite the circumstance," she answered with her own smile. "I missed you and April."
She shrugged. "I'm doing as well as expected. They are missing and we need to find them. It's not easy. If their disappearance weren't enough we have Jenna's death. It's not... It's not easy, but it's not like we have much of a choice. We keep fighting."
Savannah snorted. "I might have to record this and see what they say when we find them, because I don't think anyone believes that you trust Sam." Eliot missing them was probably the last thing they'd expect. "Since I know how well you communicate, I'll forgive the implication that my husband won't do the right thing," she added chuckling. This showed just how much Eliot didn't get them. G and Sam would do what was necessary. Marty would do what was right. "Or even that Derek and Emily didn't do the right thing."
She looked around at where Vance was talking to Brian. "He didn't say anything about threads, or even seeing you, and whoever was on the mission was tight lipped, but he never changes his mind on a whim. There is always a reason. G once said that no matter how far ahead they planned, Vance was always ten steps ahead. If you're here, there is a reason, and it's certainly not because he missed you. His goal is always the safety if the people here, his responsibility. Ours is to follow orders. You don't have to know what he's thinking." She thought back to the many discussions and arguments with Sam and G. "It's not a democracy. You don't have to understand the man in charge; you have to follow orders."
There was no way to know what anyone was thinking or what their agenda was, and she was sure that there were hidden ones. Someone like Brian had made it clear that he wanted to go back go his son and girlfriend. She had no idea what the Hammonds wanted. "I think in the end it's about trust. You just have to trust that they will do what's best for the group, and not just the people in charge, but everyone."
