If you manage to escape the confines of this ship and have not been found within two weeks, you win. I will not ask the Admiral to continue hunting you, as he will no doubt wish to do.
However, if you are immediately and unceremoniously returned to the ship before two weeks is done, you will not attempt to escape again, and will instead turn your formidable ambitions towards rehabilitation.
I've decided not to punish you for your involvement in this escapade with Akio. Mrs. Sexby seems to agree that her inmate preyed upon your desire for power.

[He paused and leaned back in his chair. The fingers of his good hand drummed on the arm for a moment.]
Rehabilitation, in your case, probably includes a fair amount of growing up.
