03:58It looked suspicious, so I passed it on.
04:00I'm a representative for Mr. Thax. He's very grateful to you.
04:04Please accept this as a gift for bringing the shipping irregularities to his attention.
04:09What happens to the shipping agent who is cheating Thax?
04:11That depends on how sincere her apology is, and how willing she is to correct her mistake.
04:17Do you want help finding the person who cheated Thax?
04:21Thank you, but that won't be necessary.
04:23Mr. Thax will be making a series of polite calls. Hopefully a confrontation will not be required.
04:29It was my pleasure.
04:31Have a pleasant day.
04:33I am unable to find much information about Thane Krios. He is understandably difficult to locate. Your former teammate, Liara Tassoni, may have more information. Her office overlooks the trading floor.
04:46I can't believe how lovely your scalp looks. Mine is so gangly and asymmetrical. You want to know a secret? I had it done a few years back.
05:01We were always told that Ilium is one of the safest places in the galaxy, until you fell off the grid. Sign the wrong contract, join up with the wrong company, or walk down the wrong alley, and it's as dangerous as anywhere else.
05:15Don't let this place fool you. It's no safer here than Omega.
05:25Pardon me, I'm dealing with damn Ilium travel bureaucracy.
05:29Are you trying to get them to help you find this locket?
05:32Oh... Steven. Thank you. Thank you so much. My daughter was young when he died. This is the only memento she has of him. Please accept this.
05:45It's much less than I would have had to pay the bureaucrats to authorize a search.
05:59There we go. Run away, you bastards. Give up your colony plans.
06:09That's disgusting. You're making money off people's fear.
06:14Yes, I am. Buy the shipload. Whereas your stock just fell like it was in a high gravity environment.
06:22Damn it!
06:40If this is the best you have, I'll make do.
06:43But you're certain the neural stimulators are compatible with both my suit and Asari's physiology?
06:48Coming up later today, we release our annual list of Ilium's ten richest people.
06:52Are the heavens still bright Asari blue?
06:54I'm sorry blue, I'm sorry blue.
06:55I'm sorry blue.
06:57The clock is no big for luck.
06:58It's the best fo-pawn as the commerce of war itself last week.
07:02All this and more on financial entertainment day.
07:05If you're hurting for things to do, maybe after work we could catch a vid or something.
07:18Oh, that's sweet. But I'm okay. A little dry spell isn't gonna kill me.
07:22We could watch Fleet and Flotilla. It got awards for its portrayal of the Turian and Quarian relationships.
07:29Anyway, if worst comes to worst, I did have the nerve stimulation program built into my suit.
07:37And I hear that the love scenes are... what?
07:40Oh yeah, standard equipment for any responsible adult. Oh here, let me fire it up.
07:46Uh, excuse me, human. Private conversation.
07:51A little space, please.
07:53Good luck talking to the weapons, merchant. Remember, she's at the shop by the carport.
08:01All right, let's do it.
08:31So far as the carporting. Next effect, so the total thing is $1.16,000 for you.
08:39Oh, of course. All right.
08:42We hope to be honest with us, whether we have time left or just as far as we can.
08:47Listen, I know the data is vital to the Kurosa family.
08:51Nassana Dantius didn't give us time to pack.
08:53I'm lucky I got out at all. Her mercenaries were starting to shoot.
08:56If she lets us back in, I'll get it. I promise.
08:58If not, well, we'll just have to hope.
09:03Excuse me, I'm on an important call.
09:05Tired of training employees only to lose them to your氏?
09:22Tired of training employees only to lose them to your competitors?
09:36Perhaps indenture check can help.
09:38The leading provider of running edge indentured service.
09:41For example, you know that new drug, the one that causes permanent neural scarring?
09:45That's horrible.
09:47There's a 12-page contract for shipping, then a waiver for use.
09:50I charged for 50 hours plus overtime.
10:20She's the last of a dying breed.
10:37There'll be many pure-blood Asari left in a few generations.
10:40I feel kind of sad for her.
10:42Don't.
10:43I heard she married an Asari herself.
10:46Had pure-blood kids.
10:47She's part of the problem.
10:51Pure-bloods are a waste of genetic potential.
10:53That's how we get throwbacks like the Ardat Yakshi.
10:56Hey, I don't like pure-bloods either, but that's going a little far.
11:00You can sell something that dangerous with just a contract and a waiver?
11:03These are the terminus systems.
11:05Everything's dangerous.
11:06And everything's for sale.
11:08Either we tax and monitor it to keep you control, or the slugglers get a monopoly.
11:13Just a Swing out.
11:43Oh, blue rose of Ilium, let your roots dig deep into the hot soil of Tuchanka.
11:51Let our scorching sun and sheeting rain turn your supple beauty into strength.
11:57For if our love is to survive, it must grow thorns to pierce the hand of any that will up...
12:06You're sure gateway weapons and armor are good enough for Eclipse?
12:13Yeah, I've got a friend in Eclipse. She told me what I needed to get.
12:18Good. I'm pretty good at bypassing firewalls. Maybe they're looking...
12:21I don't know. That still sounds like an awful thing to legalize.
12:24All the dangers are right there on the package. It's legally required.
12:28Who reads labels, though?
12:30They should be prohibited from breeding.
12:32What was your father again?
12:34Solarium.
12:36Oh. So...
12:39You probably never would have gotten to know what I did you.
12:41Shut up.
12:43You got the damn star charts? Let's go.
12:55Okay, listen. Give Fax a full refund. Do you hear me?
13:00He knows. I don't know how. It doesn't matter. Credit him a full refund now.
13:04And then get your ass someplace safe.
13:06Leave me alone. I can't talk to anybody.
13:13Leave me alone. I can't talk to anybody.
13:13Can I help you with something?
13:26Can I help you with something?
13:28I talked to an old friend, Conrad Verner. You told him that the Eternity Lounge was selling red sand.
13:36Oh. You're Conrad's friend. Yes. That place is really dangerous.
13:41I should know. I should know. I'm an undercover cop. Did you get me the deed to the bar? I need the deed to, uh, stop the red sand dealers.
13:48I softened up the bar owner, but you need to go in and finish them off.
13:54Really? Are you sure?
13:56Absolutely. You just need to close the deal.
13:59Go in, be tough, and let them know you're with me. They'll hand the deed right over.
14:03Well, great. Here, I'll set you up for a discount. Thanks for the help.
14:09Blue Rose of Ilium. You have blossomed in a tower of glass and plastic.
14:35What do you want? Sorry. Sorry, that damn Krogan's love poems are getting on my nerves.
14:42Is that Krogan bothering you?
14:43No, no, you don't need to hurt him or anything. He's harmless. Which, I know, Krogan, so it's hard to believe.
14:50His name is Char. We're kind of dating, but, well, we're on a break.
14:55And he's trying to show me how sensitive he is by, well, wooing me. It's really bad.
15:00Why are the two of you on a break?
15:01But he's serious. Serious, as in talking about kids. Char is a great guy to date, but for something permanent...
15:10Krogan's live long lives. It's not like dating a human where you just stick it out for a century till they die.
15:17Uh, no offense. It made me wonder if he really likes me, or if he just wants kids.
15:24He can't have them any other way, you know, because of the genophage.
15:27That sounds like a question you should ask him.
15:31I did. I don't think he realized that our kids would always have been Asari.
15:36Non-Asari don't always get that we're not taking alien DNA. We're just using it to randomize some of the genetic information.
15:42Anyway, Char was quiet for a long time. Then he said that he'd love our girls no matter what color they were.
15:49I will build you a garden.
15:51It doesn't seem common for Asari to date Krogan. What brought you two together?
15:56He's a fun guy. Really smart. Especially for a Krogan. And he's got a good job as a transport technician.
16:02It's fun to join a mercenary guild or dance at bars for a few centuries, but eventually you hit the matron stage, you know?
16:09Then you get your back tattoo removed, let your scalp go back to its natural blue, and settle down with someone dependable.
16:19You need to talk to your boyfriend. He's just going to keep shouting poetry until you do.
16:24I know, but it's tough. I like him a lot. Hell, I love him. But I don't know if he's permanent bond material.
16:32Look at him. He's obviously crazy about you.
16:34Is he? I mean, what if he just wants to have kids? Am I just his baby-making machine? He said I wasn't, but...
16:41If he said that, then you either trust him, so you have nothing to worry about, or you don't, and you've already decided.
16:46I guess I hadn't thought about it like that. And I do trust him, if he said it. I'm going to talk to him.
16:54Here, I've given you a discount at the terminal. Thanks for the help.
17:01Sometimes you say these things, and I don't know. Maybe it's because you had a Batarian father.
17:23Wow, you're pulling that on me? My father was an epic caretaker.
17:27And here, here, the word you're looking for is pure blood.
17:31...wearing employees, genetic paradigms invite you to consider environmental adaptive therapy.
17:37Our train staff has a success rate approaching 40%.
17:40Come to genetic paradigms.
17:42The council thought the blast-out, the first NR specter, would play by the rules.
18:10This one has forgotten whether its heatsink is over capacity.
18:15It wonders whether the criminal scum can...
18:17I'm looking for the best tech upgrades you have.
18:27Of course. I can help you with the confines and figure out what...
18:31Enkindle this.
18:32Blasto, the jellyfish stings available for extranet purchase this fall from Elium Entertainment.
18:51Dammit! This is just a misunderstanding!
18:53Tell it to the judge. My surveillance vids caught your extortion attempt from four different angles.
18:59I was misled! I was told that you had agreed to sell!
19:04Take her away. Before I have my bartender throw her out.
19:07What happened? The undercover cop from the weapons kiosk just got arrested.
19:22She wasn't a cop. She was a deep cover operative from a terrorist cell.
19:26I'd never have found her if not for you.
19:29Really?
19:29Really? You did a great job, Conrad. Now please go home. Let me take it from here.
19:35Can do, Shepard. And thanks. It's really good to have you back.
19:39Welcome back, babe. Can I get you anything?
19:53Sorry. No sex. Just cleaned the bar.
19:57Just looking around.
19:58Pleasure, as always.
20:09We'd like to offer a clarification of our spec-
