[[Meanwhile, not far away... Otto is listening to Emily and Flavoura from around a corner.]]
Emily: So ~ How're we going to even get back onto the base to gain ACCESS to our TIME VESSEL ~ much less REPAIR it?!?! I heard the place is crawling with SECURITY!!

Emily: We're going to be STUCK HERE forever~!! And, I'll never see my beloved LEO again!! It's HOPELESS!!

[[Otto pokes his head around the corner.]]
Otto: Excuse me!!
[[Emily jumps, startled.]]

Emily: [whirling to face Otto] Huh?!?!
