MURTAUGH: Ambassador, Meld-Minister, we shall shortly be receiving U.N.S. inspectors.
HIOEFUA: Is there a problem?
MURTAUGH: No, an opportunity. This ship is an example of the vast riches at your disposal.
Wowing some U.N.S. inspectors now will save you time climbing the "take-a-number" ladder later.
HIOEFUA: Of course. Good thinking.
HIOEFUA: Oh, and Captain? I follow the ladder metaphor, but it exposes your heavier-than-air biases.
MURTAUGH: *thought bubble* Don't make a "diplomats are full of hot air" joke, Murtaugh.
