The Parliament.

Your broadwave about Miranda

has weakened their regime.

They are not gone

and they are not... forgiving.

That don't bode

especially well for you...

...giving the order to let us go,

patching up our hurt.

I told them the Tams were no

longer a threat, damage done.

They might listen...

...but I think they know

I'm no longer their man.

They take you down, I don't

expect to grieve over much.

Like to kill you myself,

I see you again.

You won't.

There is nothing left to see.

Sir, we have

a green light.

Inspection's pos and

we're clear for up-thrust.

Think she'll hold together?

She's tore up plenty.

But she'll fly true.

Make sure

everything's secure.

- Could be bumpy.

- Always is.

Taking her out...

...should be about a day's ride

to get you back to your girls.

Right.

Ready to get off this heap,

back to civilized life?

I, uh...

I don't know.

Good answer.

So, you gonna ride shotgun

with me, help me fly?

That's the plan.

Think you can work out...

Okay.

Clearly some

aptitude for the...

It ain't all buttons

and charts, little albatross.

You know what the first rule

of flying is?

Well, I suppose you do, since you

already know what I'm about to say.

I do.

But I like to hear you say it.

Love.

You can learn all the math

in the 'verse...

...but you take a boat in

the air that you don't love...

...she'll shake you off just as

sure as the turn of the worlds.

Love keeps her in the air

when she ought to fall down...

...tells you she's hurting

before she keels.

Makes her a home.

Storm's getting worse.

We'll pass through it

soon enough.

What was that?
