[The video turns on to show Chloe, who is relaxing in her designated room. She's sitting on the bed, which is not standard issue but something new she picked up on the planet. That's just one of many.. many things she picked up on the planet.
For those who recognize the accent when she speaks, it's Australian with a deep timbre.]
Hello, all. Thought I might as well say 'hi' since I'm new here. The name is Chloe Frazer. I was assigned to be a transporter technician even though I don't know a bloody thing about transporters.
Anyone else have an odd job or is it just me?
[Maybe the captains just want to keep her out of trouble by making her work hard at something new.]
My theory is the captains are using a dartboard or a hat for assignments. I'm kind of leaning toward the dartboard at the moment. [She shrugs.]
Anyway, I hope we can all manage to get along here. Things seem a bit tense lately. Cheers.
[She nearly signs off, but then, before she forgets:]
Oh, and if you see a shitload of stuff in the hallway on Moro Deck, it's mine. Don't take it, and don't move it. I might have gone a little overboard with some of the shopping, but I'll find someplace to put it. Eventually.

Did you just ask me if I'm smart enough to learn to do my job?
[Way to insult a woman's intelligence, Kaz. This is going to turn into those failed conversations with Cecile all over again.]
no subject
Aptitude. More like are they asking this of a professional baseball player or ballet dancer as opposed to whether or not you have the intelligence to learn it.
If you didn't have any mechanical inclinations I could see how it would be a pretty big problem. After all, we have people that do magic here.
[He's still not completely wrapped his head around that.]

[That's still pretty much asking her if she has the skill to do the work, or the capacity to gain the skill. Either way, she won't take it
toopersonally.]I like to drive cars; I've never worked with them much under the hood, but I know a few things.
[Not enough that she'd call herself a mechanic, for sure.]
