At least I did... 555 00:46:33,001 --> 00:46:37,172 Twenty years ago when your mother and I decided it was best I leave for your sake. 556 00:46:37,256 --> 00:46:40,801 Due to the nature of my business, you see, 557 00:46:40,884 --> 00:46:45,389 having a child, a vulnerable spot, was out of the question. 558 00:46:45,472 --> 00:46:48,433 But I always made sure that you were well cared for. 559 00:46:48,475 --> 00:46:51,103 And when you were old enough to go to work, I couldn't resist... 560 00:46:51,186 --> 00:46:54,898 Seeing that a job was offered to you in my company. 561 00:46:54,982 --> 00:46:58,443 An indulgence which almost proved disastrous. 562 00:46:58,527 --> 00:47:01,196 I don't believe you. 563 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:04,616 Good. It's best that you don't... 564 00:47:04,658 --> 00:47:09,121 So that none of this will ever be repeated outside these walls. 565 00:47:23,510 --> 00:47:26,305 I believe you have something else for us, don't you, Mr. Armat? 566 00:47:26,388 --> 00:47:28,640 Ah, yes. 567 00:47:28,724 --> 00:47:32,144 Complete technical schematics for the Hatchet fighters. 568 00:47:32,227 --> 00:47:36,648 I believe it will explain why your computer control system... 569 00:47:36,732 --> 00:47:38,775 Has been ineffective against them. 570 00:47:38,859 --> 00:47:40,861 Who needs schematics? 571 00:47:40,944 --> 00:47:43,989 The key to doing battle with them is good old-fashioned intuition. 572 00:47:44,072 --> 00:47:46,992 Uh, since you have gone to all the trouble... 573 00:47:49,244 --> 00:47:52,956 Practice makes perfect, Marla. Lots of practice. 574 00:47:57,961 --> 00:48:00,797 Hi, Buck. How did it go? Rough. Very rough. 575 00:48:00,839 --> 00:48:03,800 Being 9,000 credits richer is rough. Where'd you hear that? 576 00:48:03,842 --> 00:48:05,802 From Tangie. I talked to her briefly... 577 00:48:05,844 --> 00:48:08,805 Before she was escorted over to your... Apartment. 578 00:48:08,847 --> 00:48:13,018 Don't get the idea I enjoy doing these little favors for you people. Of course not. 579 00:48:13,101 --> 00:48:16,814 Very dangerous work. There were at least five instances when I could've been killed like that. 580 00:48:16,897 --> 00:48:19,942 How much did you win again? 9,732 credits. 581 00:48:20,025 --> 00:48:24,029 You know, Ten-and-Eleven really isn't as difficult as you think it is, Wilma.
