[She thinks about Isaac and how there was nothing she could do about the things that happened back home. That if she had been able to take even a second of her experiences on this ship back with her that things would have been different. That doesn't happen though. There's a divide between here and there and whenever she gets yanked back and forth she ends up scrambling to make up for things that feel like they're out of her hands. She isn't sure if that's how Emma feels, but she knows that she's better off telling Isaac the truth and him hating her than it spiraling out from beneath her.]
