She's not talking much as a matter of course, but the most intricte part of the job is over.

Which is good, considering how much time she's spending on the ship. Makes it easier, in a lot of ways. She doesn't really have to talk to anybody -- and she can write it off as they know where I am if they want to find me.

And it's not as though she hasn't already done this job once before.

Kaylee says, a little muffled, "Simon, I want a house."
