ATRIUM SECURITY RECORDING 0361
[INTERCOM]
DIRK: Howdy everyone. This is your captain speaking. And this is my best impersonation of an airline pilot.
DIRK: Anyway, as you might have noticed, we are no longer on LOCAS. If you hadn't noticed, I hope you didn't try to leave.
DIRK: Our next destination is a place called LOMAT, as suggested by Jolene. Says its a good place for us to pick up some supplies in bulk for a good price, and maybe even make a few extra space bucks as well. I'll hold a meeting with the council to discuss that at a later date.
DIRK: That's it for now.
DIRK: ...
