[The Admiral is in his apartment looking over some paperwork concerning the farm in Wisconsin they'd recently discussed.] Ziggy, you out there?

[A moment later, sounding slightly annoyed.] Yes, Admiral, what is it?

[alavicci_cay]

[He's used to that, so he just moves on.] Got anything more for me on that farm in Wisconsin? Land titles seem to be in order -- the land's been passed through the family, and nothing about them seems nefarious. More struggling farmers. [It reminded Al of the Becketts.]

[Heaves a put-upon sigh.] I do not have all the time in the world to look after you and your interests. [Adds snippily:] I am almost entirely devoted to keeping Doctor Beckett's body alive per your request.

[Mutters something about it not being a request and then brings his voice back to level.] What does "almost entirely devoted" mean here? Ninety-nine percent? Ninety-nine-point-nine percent? How about a little perspective?
