The only gap I think not covered above is that during the flash back, you saw the Anubis fire nuclear torpedoes at the Canterbury and those torpedoes flew around the Knight (the little ship with our Roci crew aboard) in order to get out to the Cant. That happened in E1 so it was a while back but it was the same scene. You have good insights, that is all I am going to say!

I guess she also knew that DeGraaf tended to conceal his secure data storage as ordinary office supplies like pencils. So she took all of them when pretending to visit to "say goodbye". And she was right. She found file, Frank must have found, that proved that the drives where built on Earth not Mars, in this episode also confirmed by Fred Johnson (and the Martian data). Which begs an interesting question: Why did Frank commit suicide if he had found prove that Earth (not Mars) built the stealth ships?

2020-08-11 11:09:13 +0000 UTCSo much was revealed by what the scientist, Dresden, told Julie's father. He called the substance they found on Phoebe, the Protomolecule. He told Julie's father that "we can only learn by letting it learn". And now they've locked down the station and injected the Belters and now they have an isolated petri dish of hundreds or thousands of Belters, and as we've seen, the protomolecule loves radiation. The flashback was retracing all the steps that Julie took and syncing up with other known events including the destruction of the Canterbury, which was shown at one point during Julie's incarceration. Nothing is by accident in this show. The vision that Julie had just before she died showed Miller wearing his hat and following the bird into her room. Miller left his hat on Ceres. Might be an important detail to remember.
