PowellHe jumped on the cargo train and headed over to the other platform. Probably going after the beacon.
PowellI knew that beacon was trouble. Everything's gone to hell since we found it. First that damn mother ship showed up. Then the attack.
PowellThey killed everyone. Everyone! If I hadn't been behind the crates I'd be dead, too!6 choices

The geth didn't find you?

Shepard says

How come you're the only one who survived? Why didn't anyone else try to hide behind the crates?

PowellA shipment of grenades came through last week. Nobody notices if a few small pieces go missing from the military orders.
Ashley WilliamsYou greedy son of a bitch! We're out here trying to protect your sorry ass and all you can think about is how you can rip us off?!
PowellI never thought you'd actually need those grenades! Who'd want to attack Eden Prime? We're just a bunch of farmers! How was I supposed to know?3 choices

Kaidan AlenkoWait a minute. You were hiding behind the crates before the attack?
PowellI... sometimes I need a nap to get through my shift. I sneak off behind the crates to grab forty winks where the supervisor can't find me.
Ashley WilliamsYou survived because you're lazy?6 choices
FriendlyChoice 1

Wheel

Lucky break for you.

Shepard says

If you hadn't snuck off for that nap you'd probably be dead just like all the others.
