Transcript

CAG: Now, I suspect what I'm about to say will rub some of you the wrong way. The squadron you are rendezvousing with is from one of Feudal Planets of Kilrathi Empire manned by the T'Agg A'Bren Clan.

MANIAC: Oh great! Now were flying with the Cult of Sivar! Why don't we dig up Tolwyn, while we're at it?!

HAWK: Sir, you can't be serious! Those religious zealots have been raiding our colonies ever since we nuked Kilrah. They'd love to get another crack at us.

CAG: That will be quite enough out of you both! Unless you'd like to do your belly aching in the brig. Look around you. We don't have the luxury of picking and choosing our allies right now. We either work with the Cats or we die. Is that understood? Do it! Dismissed.

Empire--manned by the T'Agg A'Eren

The murmuring grows even louder.

Oh great, now were flying with Cult
of Sivar! Why don't we dig up
Toiwyn, while we're at it??
HAWK
Sir, you can't be serious! Those
religious zealots have been raiding
our colonies ever since we nuked
Kilrah. They'd love to get another
crack at us.

The CAG glares them down.

(CONT)CAG
Said squadron is manned by the T'Agg

Hawk and Maniac leap to their feet. Furious.

HAWK
T'Agg A'Bren? Sir, they're Cult of
Sivar!
MANIAC
Those renegades have been raiding our
colonies ever since Kilrah cracked
open!

The room is in an uproar. The Captain steps forward and glares at his
pilots. As the room finally quiets:

CAPTAIN
Look at the empty seats around you. We
work with the Kats or we die. It's that
simple. You're dismissed.
