Tucker and Ruby returned to Blue Base with groans, seeing Simmons standing before the gravity lift.

Tucker: This blows, we don't know the first thing about fixing intergalactic space radios.

Ruby: *mutters* And Allison went dark on me. . .

Simmons: Uh-Huh.

Tucker: Every movie I've seen with a repairman always glosses over the actual repairing part! It's just, "Hey lady, I'm here to lay some pipes," then BAM! Two scoops of raisins.

Ruby: *sighs*

Simmons: Uh-Huh.

Tucker: Dammit woman, if you let the man do his job-

And Ruby's SAW was raised.

Tucker: God, I miss when you didn't have a fucking light machine gun.

Simmons: Hey Tucker, what the fuck is this thing?

Tucker: It's a gravity lift. You step in it and it takes you upstairs.

Simmons: I know that, but what the fuck is it doing here?

Ruby: To take us upstairs.

Tucker: And to glow and make cool noises.

Simmons: So let me get this straight, we're the survivors of a shipwreck living off the bare necessities, and in the middle of the room is this incredible feat of modern day technology.

Tucker: I don't know, Wash found it on the ship and so we put it in the base. What's so weird about that?

Simmons: It's like finding a car made out of rocks, plastic, and a Bluetooth radio.

Tucker: Oh, we've got that too. Siri, play song dance team.

SIRI: Did you mean Bomb Andy?

Tucker: Aw, piece of shit.

SIRI: Calling Bomb Andy.

Simmons: How are you able to power all this?

Ruby: Now that you mention it, I'm curious too.

Tucker: We're hooked up to the ship.

Simmons: You mean you have a direct line to a limitless power supply?

Tucker: Well, no. We'll definitely run out of fuel eventually, just not any time soon. So who cares, take as much as you want.

Simmons: God bless the American way.

Ruby: What are you up to?

Simmons: Just a side project!

He jumped onto the lift and went upstairs, leaving the Aqua Soldier with the Magenta Girl. The two heard something and looked outside to see Wash and South returning.

Wash: Hey, Caboose! We've secured the perimeter. No bad guys to be found.

Caboose: Excellent work Commander Washington!

South: Ouch.

Caboose: I admire your determination. Why, maybe some day you could be the leader of Blue team!

South: Ouch.

Wash: Yes, maybe some day.

Caboose: Now, I have a very important question for you two!

Wash: Okay. . .

Caboose: Um. . . Do you think Freckles would look. . . silly in a hat? Possibly a sombrero.
