Transcript

- Skitter: I don't get it: If your family has all the power in the empire... why do you guys still do the cruddy grunt-work in the Ring?
- Fernando: Because the Ring is where our power comes from.
- Fernando: Look, if you want to control an empire, you need to control transport. And if you want to control transport, you control the Ring.
- Fernando: ... And only we control the Ring.
- Skitter: But that don't mean you gotta work the wrenches. Hire some doofus for that.
- Fernando: No way. Because eventually that doofus sells all he knows to the highest bidder.
- Skitter: But you can't keep the secret forever! Eventually some company's gonna steal a ship and figure it out.
- Fernando: IndústriaGlobo did, once. My great-grandfather sent half the armada to destroy their shipyards until they returned it.
- Skitter: Oof
- Fernando: And during my great-grandma's reign, they tried it again. She had their entire headquarters razed.
- Fernando: ... Got it back the next day.
- Skitter: OOF
- Fernando: And when two officers broke into a Ring and locked themselves inside, my great uncle ordered the captain to fly the ship into a star.
- Skitter: No way.
- Fernando: And later, when plans for a Ring were stolen, he had the thieves ejected into space naked.
- Skitter: Jeez! OK! Point made! I ain't goin' near the dang Ring.
- Fernando: Also, it's like super cold in there. Like, for reals.
Trivia
- This is the first time we've seen 'Nando without anything covering his head.
