Dialogue
[edit] Briefing
Penumbra Administrator Pearce:
- The key-logging software you planted intercepted a very suspicious email thread. Seems we've got a dissenter in the ranks!
- Corporal Cottman at Charon Crossing just received an email from General Bailey on Foreas, asking a lot of questions about Penumbra's activities on Abyss. in particular, the Thraxus Machina project. Cottman's been telling him all kinds of lies about the program, and we need to put a stop to it!
- This data disk contains some incriminating evidence about Cottman. Seems he's been a bit too much time with the daughter of a certain Major, and we've got some hi rez images of them together, and they're not playing parchesi, if you get my drift. If this major sees these pictures, Cottman's career as an officer is finished.
- Tell Cottman that we know about this correspondance. If he doesn't tell Bailey he was wrong, these pictures will be all over the AFSnet by morning.
[edit] Blackmail Corporal Cottman
- What? But... you can't release those pictures! My career will be finished! And Gwen, she... she'll never forgive me!
- All right, all right! I'll tell Bailey I was mistaken if you'll give me the data disk. Why do I get the feeling Penumbra's got backups? They're going to own my ass from here on out. You guys are seriously evil!
[edit] Return to Pearce
Penumbra Administrator Pearce:
- Well, look who's back.
[edit] (Optional) Report to General Perry
- ToDo
[edit] Debriefing
Penumbra Administrator Pearce:
- Cottman just emailed the General, saying that he made a mistake. You're a natural at this kind of work, soldier!
