Amos's not about to minimize Alex's experience, not when he can see the fear in his eyes, hear it in his voice. But maybe that's why Alex is here, talking to Amos - some rationalization. The two of them have gone through a ton of shit with each other, and Alex had to know that Amos would try to make sense of shit, find a solution, as desperate as it could be, sometimes.

Like blowing up the Cap'n instead of letting the Hybrid get to them.

"Alex, that was a hallucination. Got to be, right? You must have - I don't know, some kind of flash flu, or something? Who knows what kind of viruses are around this station. You were feverish."

That's - all he can think it could be. That it had to be. His voice was still soft, though, not judging, not mocking, not disbelieving. Just trying to make sense of what Alex was telling him.
