NARRATOR: Back in Admiral Devereaux's office...
UNNAMED LIEUTENANT: Admiral, Madame Secretary Andreyasn has called an emergency briefing with regard to the developing situation in the Plenipotent Dominion.
DEVEREAUX: Pull up the abstract. I can be ready by the time she holos in.
BREYA: The gathered admirals and I are quite excited for this opportunity to observe your legendary speed-reading.
DEVEREAUX: Lieutenant, the inclusion of the words “right now” following hotly behind the words “emergency briefing” would have spared both of us some embarrassment.
UNNAMED LIEUTENANT: Aye, sir. Your abstract, sir.
