NARRATOR: The Sanctum Adroit command cruiser Sequoia, near Celgate...
MENENDEZ: Welcome aboard. I am Colonel Menendez.
MASSEY: Massey Reynstein, corporate attorney.
MENENDEZ: I understand you have an offer to extend, Mister Reynstein.
MASSEY: Yes. We need a police force for an instant city on the Eina-Afa interior.
MENENDEZ: We have principles. We don't do "company town" enforcement.
MASSEY: It's not a "company town." The station interior is going to become a destination for science tourists.
MENENDEZ: You've built a city for exploring a space station?
MASSEY: The city is inside the station, perched on a wall a thousand kilometers above the interior surface.
MENENDEZ: A thousand... I am having trouble picturing that.
What is Eina-Afa?
MASSEY: Picture this:
We need law enforcement for a city whose population is about to jump from less than two hundred to over twenty thousand.
MENENDEZ: You're in a hurry. How soon does bidding close?
MASSEY: Yours will be the only bid. We want Sanctum Adroit.
MENENDEZ: Flattering, but what about due diligence?
MASSEY: What about "Name your price, the tourists begin arriving in eighteen hours?"
