I completely agree. I became really uninterested at this point. The whole thing felt very strange, especially since they were friends and lovers. They would be a lot closer than this or more should have been discussed at least to get a better grasp on how they both felt before and afterward.Christina Rose wrote:This is true.

I couldn’t imagine abandoning a best friend. In the very least, a note hidden away for Kylie to find later would have been a decent enough gesture.kina wrote:I completely agree.

That had crossed my mind also. If Kylie had become overly distraught, she wouldn’t have been much good either. Keeping the plan a secret was the selfish part, and not the smartest idea.prenaramesh wrote:I didn't have a problem with her choice to leave her team - everyone is allowed to retire, after all, and no one should go on a mission if they would rather not. However, I don't think she should have faked her death, and caused unnecessary grief to Kylie. In fact, this emotional upheaval might even have impacted the chances of success of the mission.

Yes! Exactly. And I don't think anyone in the team would have begrudged her the (for lack of a better word ) retirement. Or thought any less of her for wanting itChristina Rose wrote:
