It might be the former, since it looked like she was talking to Annette Bening, who may or may not be her mom. If so, I hope they keep it different enough to where it doesn't remind me of Star-Lord's origin again.

Based on this trailer, I'm thinking more of the latter, mainly based on what Annette "Still No Oscar" Benning said in her monologue about how she "made" Carol one of them. We know from the flashbacks that Carol had a life on Earth, but we also see her bleeding blue blood in a few places. Therefore, I believe she was modified into a part-Kree, and then had her mind wiped. I could see the Star-Lord and Winter Soldier similarities there, so hopefully they can disambiguate some more. Of course, it could also be a red herring, but that would probably be disingenuous given they seem to have put emphasis on characters such as Maria Rambeau and we don't want A Beautiful Mind situation occurring. With making Carol's past a mystery, I could see them implanting false memories into her making her believe that she is Kree, Hala is her home-planet, and the woman being her mother. And with her powers coming from Kree experimentation, then it leaves open the possibility of other characters in the future gaining powers that way, among them maybe Maria's daughter Monica.

I noticed when Fury looked at the cat's necklace (which has been confirmed in high-def to say Goose, after the character from 'Top Gun', and not Chewie), it put its paw on Fury's hand as if to move it away from the necklace. So maybe that's how Fury lost his eye from "trusting someone," since it brings up the question why there would be a cat there in the first place.
