Val yelled to Gerek through the bridge communication system, "But how'd you survive? You were thrown out an airlock!" Gerek replied, "Us Bollycks are pretty durable. Anyhow, I should go. Yakky, I apologize that my fellow Bollycks murdered your brother. Please know that i don't share their values." Yakky said, "Your brawling here didn't exactly paint you as a pacifist." Gerek said, "I understand. You keep believing what you gotta believe, my friend. And Lasper, thank you for trusting me. I don't get a lot of that." Lasper said, "You deserve it." Gerek said, "Thank you. And Kniff... I don't know you well enough to have anything to tell you. But you know, good travels and all that." Kniff said, "The feeling is mutual?" Gerek then finished with saying, "And Val, take care of yourself and Audri. I hope you two find your bodies, wherever they're tucked away." Val said, "That's something one would say to a mass murderer, but i'll take it."
