[ Carolina meets York's eyes for a few seconds, then looks away. She's quiet for a long moment.
She almost says, Neither did I. But if what Wash told her is true, she had it backwards the whole time.
She wouldn't have saved anybody anyway.
She almost says something about that, too, but when she tries, her brain just... stalls out. She can't even begin to pull apart the layers of confusion and regret, never mind find words for them. Words she could say to somebody who's a stranger and not at the same time?
Forget it.
She has to wonder, now, how much of her York's planning was Delta's. One more unanswerable question, as though she needed more.
At this point, it seems like that's all she's going to get. ]

Seems to happen at the worst possible times.
