Asari CouncilorThe geth attack is a matter of some concern. But there is nothing to indicate Saren was involved in any way.
Turian CouncilorThe investigation by Citadel Security turned up no evidence to support your charge of treason.
AmbassadorAn eyewitness saw him kill Nihlus in cold blood!
Salarian CouncilorWe've read the Eden Prime reports, Ambassador. The testimony of one traumatized dockworker is hardly compelling proof.
Saren ArteriusI resent these accusations. Nihlus was a fellow Spectre. And a friend.
CaptainThe hearing's already started. Come on.
CaptainThat just let you catch him off guard!
Saren ArteriusCaptain Anderson. You always seem to be involved when humanity makes false charges against me.
Saren ArteriusAnd this must be your protégé, Commander Shepard. The one who let the beacon get destroyed.2 choices

How did you get involved?

Shepard says

The mission to Eden Prime was top secret. The only way you could know about the beacon was if you were there!

Saren ArteriusWith Nihlus gone, his files passed on to me. I read the Eden Prime report. I was unimpressed.
Saren ArteriusBut what can you expect from a human?3 choices

Wheel

That was you, not me!

Shepard says

You're the one who destroyed the beacon. Then you tried to cover it up.

Saren ArteriusShift the blame to cover your own failures, just like Captain Anderson. He's taught you well.
Saren ArteriusYour species needs to learn its place, Shepard. You're not ready to join the Council. You're not even ready to join the Spectres!
AmbassadorHe has no right to say that! That's not his decision!
Asari CouncilorShepard's admission into the Spectres is not the purpose of this meeting.
Saren ArteriusThis meeting has no purpose. The humans are wasting your time, Councilor. And mine.3 choices
Saren ArteriusAre we allowing dreams into evidence now? How can I defend my innocence against this kind of testimony?
Turian CouncilorI agree. Our judgment must be based on facts and evidence, not wild imaginings and reckless speculation.
Salarian CouncilorDo you have anything else to add, Commander Shepard?3 choices
AgreeChoice 1

Wheel

You won't see the truth.

Shepard says

You've made your decision. I won't waste my breath.

Asari CouncilorThe Council has found no evidence of any connection between Saren and the geth. Ambassador, your petition to have him disbarred from the Spectres is denied.
Saren ArteriusI'm glad to see justice was served.
Asari CouncilorThis meeting is adjourned.
