We get back to the Banana Republic and I go take a sonic shower. Something about talking to Mordecai makes it necessary to get cleaned up. Afterward, I go for a walk around the ship and run into Jangir and Artie. I make small talk with Jangir to find out what Artie has been up to. Then I go talk to Artie and get the name of the last job he and his brother took on. A detector of small alien flying bugs (hunter-seekers) that seem to be popular in the Vor empire. I get the details on the name (Lev Ysadora – Vanya’s uncle, corporate magnate, CEO of a conglomerate, worth billions) and the bugs from Jangir. I see Shree walking by with a box and go catch up with him to see what he is up to. He is working to save our salvage and minimize the costs we have to pay for the clean-up.
Suddenly, we feel an explosion from the station. Our teammates are in trouble and I get into my ship and head over. I use my tractor beam in reversed mode to push the dock back together. I can’t tell if it worked or not so I ask Shree to check. He can’t tell me and so I ask Greelo and he says it is back together at least enough. I take the tractor beam off the station and ask Morticia if she wants a “lift” and I tractor her out of the docking bay – keeping her away from the ship on fire.
I land on the dock, secure the ship, send Chakarr to Rushlight, tell him to be nice to her, and head to Dizzy, and run into Mordecai. He tells me that his apprentice has a PTSD reaction to tranqs and he still wants him back.
