If you don't mind my saying so, Mister Van Lutyens, I think this is a very bad idea of yours. You don't know what you're up against.
Aye, you wouldn't catch me down there.
Why don't we wait until Mister Harris comes back, sir?
The only way to find out if this weed stuff of yours is blocking the base of the impeller is to go down and have a look.
Look, Mister Van Lutyens, I have no authority to send my men down there.
I realize that. That's why I'm going down.
By yourself?
Oh yes.
I wouldn't go down. Well, I hope you know what you're doing, sir.
I think so.
I wish you wouldn't do this, Mister Van Lutyens.
I can't sit about waiting any longer. I have no position of authority here but I do have the run of the company installations, and if I can do nothing else I can at least inspect the base of the impeller shaft. [puts on a gas mask and steps through the airlock onto the impeller shaft lift platform] Tot straks.
Good luck.
Aye, you'll need it.
All right, lower him down.
[Oak and quill are at the lift controls]
