Episode #379: Names to run away from really fast
Episode Notes
Yeah, the Phrankenstynians have a dry wit... very, very dry. Practically arid.
They may dedicate their lives to science, but they still know how to dress for awesomeness!
Transcript
- Panel 1: Admiral Slog and the Cloaked Telepathic Alien are in a private meeting.
- Caption:
- Diplomatic Suite, Tranquility Base
- Admiral Slog:
- Welcome Commandant Thalamus, I hope your journey was not too arduous?
- Commandant Thalamus:
- Greetings Admiral Slog, my journey was quite satisfactory, thank you.
- Panel 2:
- Admiral Slog:
- I understand that you previously met with Admirals Cain and Crichton?
- Well, as you know we had a slight, um, massacre on Earth, leaving me in charge of the Space Agency.
- And, I'm sure you can appreciate that we had some rather pressing issues to deal with, but now I've read all the relevant files, or at least the ones we could recover.
- Panel 3:
- Commandant Thalamus:
- I completely understand, and I believe we offered the expertise of our Medical Corps?
- Admiral Slog:
- Yes, thank you.
- Commandant Thalamus:
- Our time was not completely wasted either, we had plenty of opportunity to study many of the Federation's species.
- Panel 4:
- Admiral Slog:
- Alas, we had no opportunity to study your species, the Phrankenstynians, but I understand you dedicate your whole lives solely to the study of science?
- Commandant Thalamus:
- That is correct.
- Admiral Slog:
- So tell me, what happens if one of you wants to be a painter, or a poet, or another of the arts?
- Panel 5:
- Commandant Thalamus:
- Simple, we eradicate those tendencies in childhood with targeted brain alteration.
- And if that doesn't work, we just kill them, or use them as living organ donors.
- Admiral Slog:
- Ha! Good one, you have a very dry sense of humour.
- Ha... ha...
- ...Ha.
- So um, let us discuss the Chandelier Project.
