:31:01
But you didn't know it was worthless!
:31:09
I would never hurt you, sir.
:31:14
I'm unarmed. You can't shoot me.
It's against regulations, sir.
:31:20
I can make this up to you, sir.
I promise. I swear.
:31:23
Please, sir.
:31:27
You do not have to shoot me, sir.
:31:38
Shoot you? My most trusted colleague?
:31:42
Of course not.
We have work to do. Come.
:31:47
Tomorrow morning, we must warn
the Planetship of the mutiny.
:31:51
What mutiny?
:31:52
The one you're going to pretend
is in the works. . .
:31:55
. . .Iike your life depended on it.
Because it does.
:32:00
If the worker revolt takes place,
my informants tell me. . .
:32:04
. . .that the first order of business is
to separate you from your head.
:32:08
Which is why there will be no revolt.
:32:12
I am authorizing you to use whatever
means necessary to prevent it.
:32:16
The best way is to increase profits
and stop cutting the workers' pay.
:32:20
Production equals profits.
:32:23
And I've already ordered
as many new workers as possible. . .
:32:26
. . .to boost production.
:32:28
But we have to pay the new workers.
:32:31
Maybe you were absent the day they
taught economics at the academy, Ker.
:32:36
But nobody works for free.
:32:39
Man-animals do.
:32:42
What if we were to train them
how to mine?
:32:49
Man-animals operating machinery?
:32:53
Have you blown a head gasket?
:32:56
I will be the laughingstock
of the universe.
