… So just as we were expecting exposition about Snowfall, the story skips elsewhere, to dear Dr. Noori and a potential problem with Silverback (which I assume from the humanoid shape in panel 1). Which, of course, adds a new layer of questions when we already had a lot. Wonderful!
(Also, for whom could “this” be a real problem? For Silverback himself? Or for S.I.D.H.E.?)
Last, I wonder how competent the coffee-bearer is in metabiology and genetics. Is she shutting up because she can’t particularly read Dr. Noori’s display? Or because she knows from experience that there’s no talking to her when she’s deeply pondering a question? (… Or is she a spy for M.A.N.T.I.S, Yeoman, the Guard or another power player, pretending to be hardly skilled in biology, while having understood most of what she saw and going to relay it to her true employer?)
Only one person knows; only time will tell.

Or Noori is just tired of getting coffee when she orders tea over and over and over again…
Ha! That’s quite possible indeed!
