Yay! That was close.

*Poseidon, over the radio* Very, very impressive. Just a heads-up as a reward - keep an eye out for little grey big-headed aliens armed with death rays. They are contained in the stasis bays, and it is possible that in your file-searching you accidentally deactivated the stasis tanks and woke them up.

This isn't good.

Thanks, Poseidon. We'll keep a camera open for them. *Inspects stasis bays carefully*

Why the heck is he helping us?!

*Poseidon* You've earned it. Unlike Zeus or Ares, I'm not going to have assassins come and shoot you in the back right after you've solved an almost impossible puzzle.

Okay. Honor. I can respect that.

*Turns and looks down the sights of the plasma rifle* I see movement!!!

Well if he's telling the truth, I like him.

Hey Poseidon, do those "aliens" get knocked out when you gas 'em?

Ho hum.

No matter, they're still life forms.

Don't worry, I just want to put them back in their stasis tanks. It's Q9 who's trigger happy.

*Poseidon* To be honest, I'm not even sure if you can have any effect with nerve gas. Chemical weaponry just gets filtered out.

Would a hard whack on the head work?

*Poseidon* Yes, and electric shock. They've been trained from the earliest point possible to do nothing but kill and fly spacecraft, though, so it will be difficult to get close.

So we're gonna have to kill them?

*Poseidon* They don't exactly have the best senses in the world, so it should be fairly easy to knock them out if they are alone. They tend to operate in groups, though.
