#gisu is much more casual like 'i didn't think it was my duty to tell you? it'd hurt your feelings' and chloe is upset!! because okay yeah!!

chloe must be one of the strangest interns to come to the program. hollis is just sitting her down, going through her paperwork with her mentor (gisu), and asking her why she wants to be an agent.

"oh, well, i would like to contact whatever entity has been communicating with me since i was a kid. i feel like i'm finally close enough to reach them, and this program is the final key."

and hollis stops typing to stare at her because that is not a fucking answer she has ever heard in her life. she looks at gisu, expecting the same uncertainty, but gisu is just nodding like that was as simple as commenting on the weather.

"gisu-" "yeah, she says she's from space. she's cool. don't worry 'bout it." "oh, i will worry about it."

chloe insists she's from outer space, and she's an alien, so hollis decides to drop it...for now. they'll have another evaluation, so maybe, chloe will realize otherwise! (hollis is not ready to for chloe's teen life crisis when she's hit with the realization that she isn't an alien, a great majority of her life was spent thinking otherwise, thus distancing herself with her parents (who love her, though there is a distance created by chloe), and discounting her relationships with those who either believed or kept going on for way too long (bobby, lili, gisu, etc - not tala, who really thinks she's an alien when bobby already figured it out years ago but didn't have the heart to tell her).)
