segadores-y-soldados:

Since tumblr has decided it will NOT be uploading videos, y’all get converted MP3s instead.

Full interaction:

Soldier: 76: You were a disgrace to Overwatch. If I had known what Reyes had been planning, I would never have allowed it. 

Moira: It seems to me that it was convenient for you not to look too closely into Gabriel’s business.

Alternate full interaction videos:

Mine: Part 1 and Part 2

User geckowo: full

Discussion:

This interaction shows us a few things:

The first: Jack blames Moira for the downfall of Overwatch.  This effectively confirms she was, in fact, a double-agent working for Talon at the time of “Retribution.”

The next few things are mainly speculation:

1) Jack and Gabriel eventually disagreed on their plans to handle Talon, resulting in a genuine falling out or a separation of methods.  It is entirely possible that Gabriel wanted to continue infiltrating Talon, while Jack wanted to bail.  This is indicated by “If I had known what Reyes had been planning, I would never have allowed it.”  The full “idea” could arguably be rewritten as: “If I had known that Reyes had been planning to completely ‘lose himself’ to his role as Reaper, I would never have allowed it.”

2) Jack is “playing boy scout” just as intensely as Gabriel is playing “the bad guy.”  In an effort to convince Moira of both roles, Jack is “doubling down” here, putting on a “masquerade” of his fake falling out with Gabriel.  In essence, his line “I would never have allowed it” is a lie or a twisted truth.

Now, in my opinion –

It is the second one that makes the most sense out of Moira’s response.

Because Moira sounds suspicious of Soldier: 76 and Reaper here.

Yes, arguably, you could take her reply at face value and interpret it as, “It was convenient for me that you, Morrison, did not watch Gabriel’s actions.”

However, from the full audio, it sounds significantly more like Moira is saying, “It was very convenient that you basically let Gabriel do whatever he wanted…a little too convenient.”

Moira does not actually say directly that she and/or Talon benefited by Jack not watching Gabriel closely.  Instead, she implies that she finds Jack’s lack of oversight…convenient, possibly for him.

All in all, I’m very intrigued by this.  Very excited to see that the vast majority of Moira’s new interactions definitely imply she was the “double-agent” in “Retribution.”
