Great Protuberance: Explain this "infection". Do you know its source?
Nick: We think we do, but there isn't enough time to go into that now. You and the "clean" Physarics must work together.
[[Behind Nick, on Planck's shoulders, Socrates and Fred seem to be having a whispered conversation.]]

Protuberance: That would prove most difficult, since there is no way to tell the two factions apart.
Fred: We may have a solution for that.

Socrates: I'm relaying instructions to my contact aboard the lead Physaric ship. Once they make their move, concentrate your fire on the marked ships.

Protuberance: [Angrily] And how, pray tell, are we to identify which ships are "marked"?
Socrates: Well, I don't want to say over open comms, just in case they're listening, but you'll know it when you see it.
