I just wanted to, uh... apologise to anyone I shouted at or insulted [WITH CULTURALLY INSENSITIVE REMARKS ABOUT CLOTHES] in port. I wasn't-- My head wasn't on straight that day. Y'know how it goes, with the, ah... interdimensional travel. Thanks for trying to clue me in.

I think that's a great idea. I would make a joke about the duck thing, but, well. I remember having a room full of canines, so I'll just hope that somehow ducks are able to use these things to communicate.

I'm glad you're back, and yourself.

You and me both, Sam. But for that to be true, it would mean the Admiral would have to be paying attention to these conversations, right? That's probably expecting a bit much.

...So I guess that means we should be saying we want to be ducks. That our lives will be incomplete until we experience life as water fowl?
