3
4Errinwright and Avasarala try to get Mao to make contact, the crew of the ''Roci'' try to find Mei on Ganymede and Bobbie makes a decision that changes her life forever. Mao invites Avasarala to a meeting, which she accepts despite Cotyar's opinion that it's a trap.
5
6!!Tropes:
7* HaveYouToldAnyoneElse: Errinwright does a more subtle variant, asking Avasarala ''what'' she's told the UN about his role in the Eros incident. The fact that she's told nothing gives him an advantage he didn't expect.
8* JackBauerInterrogationTechnique: Bobbie beats the truth out of Captain Martens.
9* LaymansTerms: Prax starts explaining the ecological collapse of the Ganymede agricultural station, but Amos (who heard the explanation from him in a prior conversation) cuts him short:
10-->'''Holden:''' What's happening?\
11'''Prax:''' The [[DisasterDominoes cascade]]. In real nature there's enough diversity...\
12'''Amos:''' It means this station is fucked.
13* PunctuatedPounding:
14-->'''Bobbie:''' What -- killed -- my -- ''team?!''
15* RunForTheBorder: Bobbie does one of these as she runs from the Martian embassy across the perimeter fence to UN authorities, surrendering and requesting political asylum.
16* TakingTheBullet: Amos takes one for Prax.
17* TitleDrop: Janus to Iturbi on the Arboghast, once they decide to use up the last two of their probes.
18-->'''Janus:''' You know what sailors used to say when their ships went past the end of their maps?\
19'''Iturbi:''' Time for a new map?\
20'''Janus:''' Here there be dragons.
21* TheWorfEffect: In-universe, Amos notices this and complains. Alex also notices.
22-->'''Amos:''' How come ''I'm'' the one who always gets shot?\
