PANEL 1: Now on the other side of the hologram, we see the FIRST MINISTER and the BUCKTOOTHED fillipod as their side of the hologram “boop”s off.
FIRST MINISTER: I worry about him, sometimes. He’s too alone among the humans.

PANEL 2: The FIRST MINISTER looks to the BUCKTOOTHED fillipod.
FIRST MINISTER: They lack a certain joy: an ability to see the magic this life can offer. 
BUCKTOOTHED: He knows the sacrifice he’s making. And he knows how critical his role is. BECAUSE OF HIM, we were able to heal Tesskil, and begin building the star dancer fleet.

PANEL 3: The FIRST MINISTER turns to look at the BUCKTOOTHED filipod, holding one of his arms out.
FIRST MINISTER: Speaking of which: how many ships are we up to, this week?
BUCKTOOTHED: Well, we took that break for the bi-monthly Crêpe-a-thon…

PANEL 4: As the two fillipods continue talking, a third fillipod wearing a FLAT CAP runs in, all 14 of his limbs active in running.
BUCKTOOTHED: But we’ve now produced two hundred and forty-n—
FLAT CAP: SIR! SIR! Huge news from the engineering team!

PANEL 5: From behind the two fillipods, the FLAT CAP fillipod talks excitedly.
FLAT CAP: Your new initiative worked! It’s a major breakthrough! Now when the drive starts up…

PANEL 6: Same scene, then the FIRST MINISTER reacts with eyes bulging.
FLAT CAP: …It sounds like the most COME-HITHER FLAMENCO.
FIRST MINISTER: By god THEY’VE DONE IT!
