[It won't suffice because it can't, not for Erin, not when she's been left behind or had something important taken from her so many times, but at least she seems to pick up that there's no point in continuing the conversation any further and doesn't harass Gliese any longer.]

Then why? Why would you pick a wounded man whose skills are needed here as much as somewhere else?

Why pick anyone? Rationalize it as you must to find your comfort, but I cannot provide it to you.

I'm not looking for comfort, I'm looking for a reason!
[j/k she's totally looking for comfort. Why does she keep looking for comfort from people who can't or won't give it to her? Heaven only knows.]

There is no reason beyond what you have been given. Let it suffice, for your own sake.
[ Gliese and comfort is like a rock and sandpaper. ]
