Orac?
A formal application was laid before the High Council on Earth within the last thirty days. I could get you the exact date --
Uh, I don't wish to interrupt, Master --
Then kindly don't.
I wasn't talking to you.
You were attempting to override a superior system. Be silent. [continues] -- the exact date, if you wish. But the importance of the application lies not in its exact date, but in its general requirements.
Which are?
That the citizens of Gauda Prime put their house in order. Law must be established before the benefits of law can be restored.
It is the day of the bounty hunter. [cut to close-up of Vila] Thieves, [cut to close-up of Dayna, pan to Soolin] killers, [cut to close-up of Tarrant] mercenaries, [cut to close-up of Avon; he smiles] psychopaths, are as unwelcome now as the farmers once were. [Scorpio's alarm goes off.]
Slave, what's wrong?!
Well, nothing is actually wrong, sir, yet.
Explain the alarm, Slave. [Alarm cuts out.]
I had to get your attention, Master, and I was forbidden to speak unless spoken to.
All right, you're spoken to. What is it?
I beg to advise you, Master, that we're approaching the planet Gauda Prime. And Scorpio is under attack! [An explosion rocks the flight deck.]
