Pi: Open the comms.
[[Everyone on the bridge turns their attention toward the view screen. Just in front of it, the holographic image of the Grand Protuberance shimmers into existence. His voice booms over the intercom.]]
Protuberance: Vessel Omicron Tau Sigma XQR-3864! This is Protuberance Omicron! Explain your presence! Why can I not sense Skaboola Tau Sigma?
Pi: [Diplomatically but sternly] This is the drone formerly known as #3141592. I act as the democratically elected captain of this vessel. Skaboola Tau Sigma is no longer in command.
Protuberance: [Scowling] Then it is as I and the Supreme Fu have feared. The stench of human individuality has tainted that ship beyond repair. I suppose we have YOU to thank for this, Wellington?
[[Nick steps up and stands next to Pi's command chair.]]
Nick: [With a slight, satisfied smile] On the contrary. This was a decision these drones made on their own. And before you ask, the Great Skaboola is alive, well, and dare I say, has been treated humanely.
