The Last Scout Page #3

but what have I always told you?

The truth.

That's right.

Pete always tells you the truth,

doesn't he?

Because I will never lie to you.

Now don't you have some

studying for Hayley to do?

Ok, if Hayley asks where I am,

will you say

you haven't seen me?

Of course I will.

But only because you're

my favourite member of crew.

I guess I can lie to everyone

else. Go on, go.

I hope that doesn't include me,

Mr. Burton.

Of course not.

An engineer never

lies to his captain.

He might exaggerate sometimes

just so you appreciate

the miracles he works down here.

Good stuff.

Now you can fix the

oxy-generation units on C deck.

The other units are working

overtime to compensate,

and if they start burning out

then the minor problem of

breathing becomes a major issue.

Especially when you waste oxygen

by using welding equipment.

They're not gonna burn out,

for one,

I replaced the knackered unit

with the one

from the escape pod,

so we're all ok there.

You can't use the unit

from the escape pod.

First, it's not big enough

to replace a unit

that serves a whole deck,

and second,

it's from the escape pod!

If any of us ever need it,

we won't survive more than

a few minutes in there!

Oh, you've got your eye

on it, have you?

Oh that's not even funny.

Enough, Gentlemen!

Pete, I know

you have a lot to do right now,

- but Edward's right.

- Edward's right.

You need to put

the generator back

on the pod where it belongs,

and I need the one on level C

fixed in the next 24 hours.

Otherwise you can go in the pod

and free up some oxygen

for the rest of us.

Yes, boss.

Anything else?

Nope.

I'm sure we'll all be

quite hungry soon.

Hmm.

It is your night

to prepare dinner, isn't it?

Such a great day!

Well?

The plasma overload did more

than screw the valve.

Mmm-mm, thank you.

Truly, your generosity

knows no bounds.

Yeah, can I get that box back?

Cos I may need that again

next year.

It's mine, you gave it to me.

Thanks.

There are crumbs in that.

I want in!

All right. I guess, here you go.

Thank you.

Good you know how to share.

It's delicious.

Mmm, I did good, right?

Oh that is good.

- You got a little... Right here?

- Huh?

No no, no, I'll get it.

Yeah, right...

- I'm just trying to-

- You're hitting on me!

- What? I'm not hitting on you.

- You're totally hitting on me.

No! You had something, you had-

That is a move!

- That is totally a move!

- It's not a move.

Oh come on,

you think I don't know a move?

What, seven years on a ship

and I don't know what a move is?

- I was-

- Come on.

Ok look, it's my birthday.

It's my birthday.

All right,

I'm gonna allow this. Come here.
