Inside, he's fuming. God knows what kind of trouble the man's caused for Carter and her career. There's only so much Ross himself can do to mitigate it if someone decides to make an example out of her.
Hasn't Barnes done enough? The last thing Ross needs is for him to argue over this. "If I thought Agent Carter had made the conscious choice to betray the Task Force and her government, I'd have locked her up, too," he adds, snappishly. "No matter how long we've worked together. But intent or not, there was a security breach, and it's my responsibility to stop it back up again. Ideally, with Agent Carter's cooperation. Whatever recourse might or might not be called for after that is another matter."
He slants a look at her. "Carter?"
"Yes, sir," she says. "Of course I'll assist however I can."
