1.38 Transcript
Kiro: So, why this warm welcome?
Penny: It would reflect poorly on the council if you had died.
Kiro: Figures.
Penny: Where have you even been, anyway?
Darien: Foreign object?
Penny is quick to recover her composure but she ‘was’ in panic mode a few moments earlier. Ever the politician she’s back to her normal self.
So you can’t keep the jerky secret now. Maybe a nice healthy bribe can get you back into dining privileges and score a point or two with the council. Darien would probably go for it and if Jack is really his lackey that makes 2 out of 3 votes.
Why would they allow her to bribe them when they can simply confiscate the whole bag?
I should clarify, Kiro’s banned from eating camp food, but whatever she finds outside is supposedly “off the books” so they might allow her to keep it…
Them? I guess you have a higher opinion of them than I currently do. ^^
Future posts will tell. 🙂
Its not about my opinion of them. I know if they thought they could get it, they would take it in a heart beat but Kiro has proven faster than them and only got caught last time due to not knowing her way around. That’s less likely to happen this time. Better to have part of a whole than nothing at all.
Depending on how politically savvy Penny is will dictate how this goes. I have a feeling the other two default to her in matters of finesse. Kiro is proving resourceful. That might be an asset the council wants. Not to mention there are benefits to having someone everyone else considers a pariah on the payroll, so to speak.
Smart answer: “Found it on the cropse of some poor girl. Looks like she was mauled by an elk, what a sensless waste of human life”.
