1:20:00
- Who are you?
- Hierarch Yondalao.
1:20:02
Triumvirate Council.
1:20:04
Eidelon faction
of neutrality.
1:20:07
There is no such thing
as neutrality.
1:20:10
You travel with my prisoners,
you are a prisoner.
1:20:13
Emperor Staleek,
you wish power,
1:20:18
acknowledgement of
your personal intelligence,
1:20:21
and to gain acceptance
1:20:24
in the upper echelon
of civilizations.
1:20:28
What do you know of my aims?
1:20:31
Only that there are many
paths to accomplish them.
1:20:35
War is our path.
1:20:37
At the peace table,
we know how we're viewed:
1:20:41
Brutish, ignorant.
1:20:43
Then what greater victory
than to prove them wrong?
1:20:46
And without the loss
of a single Scarran...
1:20:50
life.
1:20:57
I am listening.
1:21:05
Now you will tell me this one
Human holds such fascination
1:21:08
that Scorpius would desert,
1:21:09
the Scarran emperor
would pursue.
1:21:12
And we would all tremble at the
power of his magical wormholes.
1:21:16
Did you not tell me
Crichton was powerless?
1:21:19
His doomsday weapon
a myth?
1:21:21
That was my belief.
1:21:24
This moment, however,
is not without opportunity.
1:21:26
Agreed.
1:21:27
Knowing the emperor's
whereabouts
1:21:30
allows us to negotiate
a peace proposal
1:21:33
before our position
becomes so eroded
1:21:36
as to be laughable.
1:21:37
Yes, my love.
Of course.
1:21:45
It also gives us the opportunity to surprise the
Scarran leader
1:21:49
and decapitate his empire.
1:21:51
The sudden chaos in their ranks
might tip the balance.
1:21:56
And if that fails?
1:21:58
No, I will not be remembered
by history
