I'm sorry you've waited so long
VOICE: Ten. Nine. Eight. Seven. Six. Five. Four. Three. Two. One. We have lift-off.
[The rocket lifts off.]
AVON: Meegat, I'm sorry you've waited so long.
MEEGAT: Our waiting brought you.
AVON: That seems like a poor reward, somehow.
[The rocket is climbing through space.]
[Liberator flight deck. The whole crew is present.]
ZEN: The rocket is now beyond sensor range.
AVON: Have the navigation computers made a projection?
ZEN: It is calculated that the rocket will make planet-fall in the system Magdalen Alpha.
AVON: How many suitable planets are there in that system?
ZEN: There are four with compatible biospheres.
AVON: Flight time?
ZEN: Five hundred earth years.
VILA: You won't be a legend in your own lifetime, then.
GAN: Fertility cells wouldn't know about us, anyway.
CALLY: Meegat does. [To Avon] Did she really think you were a god?
AVON: For a while.
BLAKE: How did it feel?
AVON: Don't you know?
BLAKE: Yes. I don't like the responsibility, either.
