:32:03
What mutiny?
:32:04
The one you're going to pretend
is in the works. . .
:32:07
. . .Like your life depended on it.
Because it does.
:32:13
If the worker revolt takes place,
my informants tell me. . .
:32:16
. . .that the first order of business is
to separate you from your head.
:32:21
Which is why there will be no revolt.
:32:24
I am authorizing you to use whatever
means necessary to prevent it.
:32:28
The best way is to increase profits
and stop cutting the workers' pay.
:32:33
Production equals profits.
:32:35
And I've already ordered
as many new workers as possible. . .
:32:39
. . .to boost production.
:32:41
But we have to pay the new workers.
:32:43
Maybe you were absent the day they
taught economics at the academy, Ker.
:32:48
But nobody works for free.
:32:51
Man-animals do.
:32:55
What if we were to train them
how to mine?
:33:02
Man-animals operating machinery?
:33:06
Have you blown a head gasket?
:33:09
I will be the laughingstock
of the universe.
:33:13
So you should have me
take man-animals. . .
:33:16
. . .with equipment,
out to a remote area. . .
:33:18
. . .better that you don't know where,
and try and train them.
:33:21
Have them do some test mining.
:33:24
If it doesn't work out,
no one will know.
:33:27
-Right.
-And if it does work. . .
:33:29
. . .I will be vaporized.
:33:31
It is against the law.
:33:33
Regulations say. . .
:33:35
. . .a Planetship faced with
a profit-threatening situation. . .
:33:39
. . .is relieved
of all other ordinances. . .
:33:42
. . .to pursue, to protect
and to acquire said profits.
:33:47
There you have it.
:33:55
We stick to the original plan.
:33:58
Bring in new workers. . .
