Imagine the Eridians set up some kind of far space satellite relay system so they can actually communicate with Earth at a reasonable rate (like hours/minutes instead of months/years).
And they get Grace to send his first message to Earth in years.
And a female voice comes back saying "It's good to hear from you, Doctor Grace."
"...Eva Stratt?!"
*Person who sent Grace into space, question?*
"Yes Rocky but..."
*BAD HUMAN! BAD BAD HUMAN! SENT GRACE TO DIE ROCKY NO LIKE BAD BAD BAD %@#$#*
Cue Grace trying to wrestle the speaker away from Rocky while apologizing profusely
And then the next transmission that comes in is Eva Stratt laughing her ass off as she's getting cussed out by an alien in the most chaotic first contact scenario ever.
Bonus Bloodymary: Grace awkwardly trying to explain "uh yeah we also found another human in a wormhole in a weird bloody submarine"
And then Eva "...would that possibly be connected to the space stations full of very confused tramatized humans that showed up here a few years ago? they said the black box from the blood ocean led them out?"
(screw it let Simon save his remnants of humanity as well he deserves a win)
