At the end of Priority: The Citadel II, Shepard and squad will race to save The Council from a Cerberus attack facilitated by Donnel Udina. The Council will be guarded by either Ashley or Kaidan, who recently became a Spectre, depending on which character survived the Virmire mission in Mass Effect 1. As you exit the elevators to pursue The Council, your old squadmate will have their weapon trained on you, perhaps wondering if Shepard is involved in the attack, given The Commander’s past ties to Cerberus.
The following factors all play a role in influencing the trust meter of Ashley / Kaidan
-Romance (minus points for any infidelity in ME2)
-Fate of the Council in Mass Effect
-Fate of Salarian Councilor in ME3
-Conversation with Ashley / Kaidan in Mars Archives
-Visiting Ashley / Kaidan in the Hospital
-Visiting Ashley / Kaidan in the Hospital a Second Time
-Paragon / Renegade Interrupt at Beginning of the Standoff
There is a laundry list of factors that influence Ashley or Kaidan’s trust in Shepard during this confrontation. A variety of decisions from each game in The Mass Effect Trilogy are taken into account. These decisions are scored on a points system and tallied up in what we’ll call the trust meter. This information comes from the Mass Effect wiki page, which I’ll link in the description.

Depending on your level of trust with the Virmire survivor, one of three things will occur:
They will automatically side with Shepard against Udina
They can be convinced to side with Shepard via a speech check
Or they will automatically side against Shepard and get killed
