- Well, it’s Ensign Rutherford – I think his Vulcan implant has malfunctioned. The defense array is still offline, and I’ve lost contact with him on the surface. The Gelrakians will be here any minute!

- Look, I know this is a little unorthodox, but I was hoping we could keep this one off the record. Captain Freeman suggested that I’d be in line for a promotion if this mission was a success.
