Shrike is watching his show, while you and Beebs were just chillin'.

Beebs, trying to play his guitar: "Did you really have to keep THAT?"

Y/N: "Keep what?"

Beebs pointed at the sword from Agness, made from the Lythops.

Y/N: "It's a memento."

Beebs: "Oh. Just asking." Messes up a note, gets shocked "Dammit!"

Shrike: "Trying to watch my 📺 here."

Beebs: "And I'm trying to play."

Y/N: "You got a screen in your room, right? Watch it in there."

Shrike: "But I'm driving." His foot is on the thruster

Beebs: "I trust cruise control better than your's." Only to get zapped again

Shrike, snatches the guitar: "Here! I'll show you how a master does it."

Shrike tried to play the 🎸 but poorly.

Y/N, grabs it: "Gimme that."

You handed over to Beebs.

Beebs: "Not bad."

You simply shrugged.

Shrike: "Well I tuned it up for you. Now keep it down, it's showtime."

As Shrike went to watch his cartoon, Beebs looks at his cybernetic arm, having second thoughts.

Y/N: "You okay?"

Beebs: "Uh...are we cut out for this?"

Shrike: "Huh?"

Y/N: "What do you mean?"

Beebs: "I...can't stop thinking about the Lyhops...that poor little fella."

Y/N: "..."

Shrike: "The LAW will set him up with some stupid job and he'll still keep going. Just look at me; I turned out fine. Ya can't keep hung on that stuff, amigos. Can't have regrets."

Y/N: "Don't you have that voice in your that tells you about right from wrong?"

Shrike: "Right? Wrong? Whatever! Just no regrets. Where we headed anyway?"

Beebs: "Just dropping a crate for the LAW guys."

Shrike: "New rule; Don't take any jobs from ANYONE who looks like LAW! Buncha jerks."

Beebs: "And what does that make YOU?"

Shrike: "An ex-jerk."

Y/N: "Kinda still active in my POV. I mean you're still wearing that suit."

Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!

Beebs: "What is that sound?"

Shrike: "I dunno. It started doing that by itself."

Beebs: "A 🖥 can't do things by itself."

Y/N: "Sounds like a distress call."

Shrike: "A de-dress call?"

Beebs: "DISTRESS! Someone might be calling for help!"

Shrike: "Oh a DISTRESS call! Could be more money for us."
