Book 14: Broken Wind — Part II: Can Full of Sky

Transcript

NARRATOR: Bristlecone, bound for the Eina-Afa spindle at Mach 4...

TAGON: *shouting* HOW DID WE MISS A FIRE THE SIZE OF BRAZIL?

BRISTLECONE: It was on the far side of that strut.  It only erupted around the edges moments ago.

TAGON: It was *shouting* RIGHT ON TOP OF US!

BRISTLECONE: There was no camera drone observing that area.

TAGON: You two didn't leave a camera drone watching the giant fire you set?

BRISTLECONE: I...  No.

No, we did not.

TAGON: Cox'n, did you hear that?  Just now, her voice, when Bristlecone sounded almost humble, admitting you two made a mistake?

PARA: Yes, sir.

TAGON: I would like to be able to see that on her face.
