But no spoilers yet.
Funny that when breast for further comment on this,
a representative,
the cartel said,

You're going to trust the word of this kid we've known for like a week.
It's him.
(03:38):
Uh guys,
I don't even know where he keeps his nuts.
So like how could I eat them if I don't know where they are.

Is that what he sleeps with his nuts in that mix?
He has special fruits.
They come only from his planet.
Do you know how hard it is for me to get those?
I can't just go back and get to myself.
(04:43):
I mean,
yeah,
I'm sure that it's very difficult for you to mix your fruit nuts together.
But like I cannot explain to you enough that like I didn't even know you had fruits and nuts.
So how could I be digesting them and like savoring them if I didn't know you had nuts to begin with.

picked me up,
threw me into your ship and took me across the goddamn galaxy to turn me in for a bounty.
Uh if that sounds about right to you,
let me tell you how I remember it.
Ah the rift,
I always hated the rift.
A desolate place filled with the scamming villainy that was rejected from that desert planet.
(06:33):
Everyone's always talking about being born here is probably the second worst thing that could happen to someone in a mega star seven.
The first being spaghetti fied by a black hole and served with a pair of meatball moons from the bangle solar system.
That's a favorite dish by the gigantic gola people of cadarache.
If you can believe it,
you may think I'm joking,
(06:54):
but remember a huis motto,
we serve all patrons any size and like all things washed up by the sea of stars.
That is a megastar seven.
We ended up at a no holly's house.

When the war ended 10 years ago and the rift of regions of Omega star seven were free from the seven system Federation.
(21:13):
The real problem started.
The cartel was always an issue,
but with no seat of power,
the oven would took hold.
No one's ever seen him.
They've only seen as overseers.
HVAC was one of them.
A shrewd amphibious creature,
sadistic and cunning,
all things considered.
I was glad we were on his side,
(21:33):
but I was about to find out.
We're going to have a new ally.
Hey,

Pleasure's all mine.
I'm here to turn in a bounty TuVOk.
(21:54):
Where is he?
Vac has been retired and I am his replacement.
I didn't think your cartel fellas could retire?
You're right,
we can't.
So just who are you then?
What the Seven systems has brought you here And what's happened Tuvok?

Because I think you're gonna be very impressed.
(22:56):
Hold on,
friends like mine typically don't wear armor like that covering their face in all you seem like the kind of type that would stab someone in the back and me and my friends like to stab him in the front so we can look at them as they die.
Oh,
slip.
(23:16):
I'm hurt.
You don't recognize me,
but I assure you I am your friend,
be that as it may friends or not.
I do have a bounty for Voc.
And since you've graciously taken over his position,
you'll be covering it then?
No slip.
I do not lower myself to petty bounty.
(23:38):
So what do I do with this kid then.
That sounds like your problem,
not mine.
You sound like one of my friends just here in the seven systems,
