The opening to 1.06, a couple of years after 1.05, plays with the audience's expectations. We are expecting Margo - the first woman in Mission Control - to be flight director. We even see Margo fiddle with index cards right at the beginning, as if she is planning to deliver a speech. Margo may not be a team player - but she is cool under pressure and she knows what needs to be done. She is the last person to look up from her work to view the explosion - she is also the first to turn to Irene, awaiting orders. It's not quite clear but it's almost implied that she catches Irene's eye, which jolts her into action. Red is not a colour we see often on Margo; we see her predominantly in more muted palettes. This highlights her difference in the wide shots, signifying her difference amongst her colleagues. It also suggests that she is done playing the game, her expected part, after being passed over for Flight. To the best of my knowledge, the next time we see Margo wearing red is in 2.08, where she has also decided she is done playing by the rules of others.

Margo, I wanted to ask, will you be at the ICSE conference in the UK this summer? I’m not sure. Why?

He's ready to be dead. And you're starting to realize you might not want to be buried with him, because who is he to you if he's not playing tennis?
