Narrator: Behind Jupiter, hiding from a really big bang.

Brad: Sir, a very, very large object just popped into existence 2 K-klicks to starboard.

Tagon: What are the odds. . .

Breya: This is Admiral Breya, aboard counter-weight station. Captain Tagon, is that you?

Tagon: It is. What brings you to Jupiter, Admiral?

Breya: Ennesby said that, from a purely statistical point of view, it was the safest place to ride out this blast.

Tagon: Well, the conversion bombs should have gone off by now.

Breya: So, why don't you pop back and have a look?

Tagon: I'm not gonna look. You go look.
