It's hard for her to describe Maggie Scully any other way than as a mom. Archetypally maternal, or at least that's how it feels to Dana. She shrugs her shoulders as she considers it.

"She's not as strict as Dad," is where she lands, though maybe it's only half-true. The better way to put it is probably that she keeps the house and the family to her husband's standards. But if she says that to Fox it'll sound like a complaint, and it isn't, not really. It's just how things are, especially when her father ships out.

If anything it's strange how much he's been here in Craiger. She doesn't entirely understand the nature of his special assignment-- it's none of her business, she knows, which is maybe something she and Fox have in common. A lack of security clearance that goes beyond not being included in grown-up business.

"She's a good mom, I think."
