Mission Briefing

Briefing Room, TCS Concordia.

ANGEL Pilots, let us get down to business. We have detected a small Kilrathi listening post. Using a pair of fighters, we will attack that outpost ... ... and destroy the Kilrathi's ability to intercept transmissions. You will be flying Epees for this mission. Maverick, you and Amp will... wait, forgive me, mes amis, I was mistaken. Buckaroo, you and Amp will fly the mission. Maverick, I have another mission for you. You will conduct the morning patrol, touching all Nav Points. You will be flying Rapiers for this mission.

MAVERICK Colonel Devereaux, may I speak with you in private?

ANGEL Of course. Pilots, you are dismissed.

STINGRAY I'll wait on the flight deck, Maverick.

A few minutes later...

MAVERICK Angel, why are you doing this to me? You know I can fly the mission against the listening post!

ANGEL I know you can. But if I favor you ... ... with the more challenging missions, the others will talk. Already, I have heard them say uncomplimentary things about you ... ... and why you are still aboard the Concordia.

MAVERICK Do you really care what people say about us?

ANGEL Maverick, you must go to the Flight Deck now. Good luck on your mission. Captain, you are dismissed.

Mission Debriefing

Colonel Devereaux's Office, TCS Concordia.

ANGEL What exactly happened out there, Maverick?

MAVERICK We were ambushed by Drakhri. We didn't complete the full patrol. I had a bad feeling about it...

ANGEL We devise these missions for a reason. I do not appreciate you changing them.

MAVERICK Paladin's Free Trader was under attack.

ANGEL He was fleeing from the Kilrathi attack in Tesla. Please continue, Maverick.

MAVERICK We finished off the Jalkehi... ...and continued on our mission, escorting the freighter. We skipped the Free Trader rendezvous point completely. It didn't feel right to us.

ANGEL I am very disappointed. Did you, at least, blast some Kilrathi?

MAVERICK I got ç. I blew it. Stingray nailed ê. And Stingray was blanked.

ANGEL Just before you came in, S & R reported a successful pick up on Stingray. This was a very difficult mission for you, mon cher. I'm glad you returned unharmed.

MAVERICK I always land on my feet...well, most of the time! Angel, you look tired... ...you should get out of your office a while ... ... maybe go up to the O-Deck? I'm sure Paladin would want to talk with you.

ANGEL I can't. I have too much work to do...

MAVERICK Is something wrong?

ANGEL Paladin told us...Tesla Station... We've just received word...Tesla Station...

MAVERICK What...What is it?

ANGEL It has been destroyed...no survivors... Tactical thinks the strike force responsible may still be in-system.
