It's a real privilege, and I mean it. She's incredible—the work she's doing, there's really no one like her. Her people are fortunate to have her, and so many don't understand.
She's the best engineer you'll ever see—and that's the truth, friend, don't let any of those scientists in there tell you that it's them. She loves her work, even if her people forbid it—really fixing the canals that she was taught to take care of as a priest of the canals. Most of the priesthood's got it backwards, but not her.
...I, ah, see. [so work relating to the canals is religious, but actually fixing them or making some substantive change is...heresy? ] ...so she is, ah, accounted a heretic, then?
That is, ah...unfortunate. Especially with the importance of her work. I, ah, hope that someday, somehow....more people will understand.

Maybe with time... maybe. Once they see what it does for them, they have to.

I can, ah, believe it. It's, ah, unfortunate...but I can believe it. [foundation of their society, he guesses, based on the linguistic connection.]
Maybe, ah, maybe....

I can't save everyone, but maybe I can, for her.
Re: THE OUTER DECK
I hope you succeed. For, ah, her.
