NARRATOR: Parnassus Dom, near the galactic core...
TAGII: Doctor Bunnigus is calling, sir.
TAGON: Thank you, Tagii.
TAGON: Doctor, how are you? Have you gotten things all straightened out yet?
BUNNI: Not really, no. Shep has been poisoned and abducted, Kathryn isn't coming back, and Schlock and Ennesby just found a big pile of corpses.
TAGON: "Found?" Is that what they told you?
BUNNI: It's not Schlock's work, sir. Ennesby sent pictures. There's some sort of nanny-induced decomposition going on.
TAGON: Listen, we're still trying to figure out how to come and collect you. Just stay put, okay?
BUNNI: No, sir. Not okay. If I'm right about things Shep doesn't have much time left. We're going to get him now.
TAGON: Fine. You're the one in the trenches. It's your call, Lieutenant.
Is there anything we can do back here? What do you need?
BUNNI: Besides a bunch of men and materiel you can't provide?
Nothing besides permission, Captain.
TAGON: Permission?
BUNNI: To make the news.
LEGS: Well?
BUNNI: "Permission granted," only with lots of extra, angry syllables.
