Transcript

• "Nature," it is said, "abhors a vacuum."
• [thoop]]
• As it turns out, nature abhors a great many things. Such as scout ships that pinch space meters from a moon.
• [FAMM!]
• The moon, in such a case, ends up taking it in the kisser.
• Taneel: [off-screen] Nosh! We're Here!
• Nosh: Yes. Yes. ... Is not subtle.
• Taneel: [off-screen] How fast can you get to the airlock?
• Nosh: I will go like cheetah! Big, fat cheetah! We arrive in no time!
• Taneel: [off-screen] Whoa whoa whoa...
  "We"? Who's we?
• Nosh: A new friend, captain! We must give him quarter - he risked his life to save mine. I owe him a life debt.
• Taneel: [off-screen] Good Lord. You and your life debts. How many are you up to now?
• Nosh: ... Is now a baker's dozen!
• Taneel: [off-screen] Learn to defend your dang self!!

Trivia
