Panel 1:
Supreme Advisor: I shall make it very simple for ow. Withdraw your vessel to outside the Neutral Zone.
We will be in contact to arrange the return of your officers within the day.
Details will be routed through your excellent diplomatic officer, Mr. Talbot.
Suffice it to say, though, I that I believe we shall be satisfied with a lifting of certain trade restrictions. Perhaps on ale exports?
Colonel Hank Reynolds: Anything else?
Supreme Advisor: As I said... we'll be in touch.
Panel 2:
Hank: Very well. We'll withdraw. We're still having a problem with our plasma vents, though.
Do you have any object to our flushing the system before we go to warp?
So we don't blow up in orbit.
Supreme Advisor: As a gesture of goodwill, I will allow it.
Hank: Talia, execute the venting as discussed.
Helmsman Talia: Yessir.
Hank: And warp us out of here.
Panel 3:
SFX: Warp!
Panel 4:
Guard Captain: Did that seem easy to you?
Supreme Advisor: Perhaps. But I think you may be forgetting how much planning went into this entire venture.
Still... deploy a vessel to examine their plasma exhaust.
Guard Captain: Yessir.
Panel 5:
Supreme Advisor: And relax a little, Captain.
If all continues to go this well, we shall be dining in the Imperial Palace on Romulus by this time next year.
Guard Captain: I look forward to it, sir. I mean... Mr. Supreme Advisor, sir.
Supreme Advisor: And I look forward to that title becoming "Mr. Emperor, sir."
Now have a drink. We've anticipated their every move.
Panel 6:
Supreme Advisor (offscreen): They have no cards left to play.
Narration Box: Spoogian Rebel HQ...
Ezzok: Still clear outside.
The Intrepid left orbit. Like we planned.
Nothing else on sensors.
I thinkt he feint worked!
Panel 7:
Stickleback: Good. I only wish the Commodore and Commander could have evaded capture, too.
But they knew this might happen. It is why we split our team up and beamed to both here and there at the same time!
I only pray Pavembril is still safe.
Lieutenant Jurak: You have a layout for the prison complex, right?
Stickleback: We do. Study this. And I will send word to our allies that Starfleet's marines have joined our cause. In force!
