Mission dialogue/talk-to

Is there any way a non-leader of a mish can read the exchange going on between team leader and the NPC we need to talk to? It is common in a lot of the newer missions but most of the team doesn't get in on the exchange. It seems kinda ridiculous if that is the case.

Newer missions have had the habit of putting in-mission conversation text in NPC dialogue speech bubbles. When the dialogue portion is too long to fit in a speech bubble, the speech bubble will instead summarise what is being said in fewer words. It causes dialogues to be more broken-up, but it also forces the writers to not meander and ramble, so it works out.

This isn't the case for older missions, however, nor some of the newest, bizarrely enough, and it doesn't work for mission debriefings, but it's a start.
