It's worth noting that in Destroy (or at least a Destroy ending where Shepard takes that breath), your LI doesn't actually put the plaque up on the board, which s/he does in all other endings. The feeling one gets is almost that they're taking it off after finding out Shepard is still alive.

And I can't stop thanking the video game gods that the indoctrination theory is dead for good.
