dekker Admiral Tolwyn's escaped.
blair How?
dekker looks at maniac.
maniac (sheepish) I let him go.
blair You let him go?!
maniac He's the Admiral. I served under him a long time.
blair So that entitled him to a get-out-of-jail pass in your puny little mind?
maniac (bristles) You got any idea what kind of firepower would come down on us when they found out we were holding the Admiral prisoner? (more)
maniac (cont'd) War hasn't even been declared yet. Half the Confed fleet is probably heading this way right now. If you ask me, I probably just saved all our asses.
blair looks at dekker.
dekker He's your friend.
no help there. he looks at maniac again.
blair Now he knows our position and what we're up to.
maniac (long beat) All right. So I mighta screwed up. (beat; softer) Seemed like a good idea at the time.
dekker He can't be far. Let's go after him--
blair And do what? Shoot him down? Talk about acts of war. (beat) No. This is a 'Maniac move' we're gonna have to live with. (to Maniac) I just hope we don't live to regret it.
