 "What are we looking for again?"

 "You saw the orders, same as me.  Energy signature associated with a
 class A gas supergiant planet.  Some evidence that these so-called
 Jjaro S'buuth keeps talking about actually exist."

 "Jjaro, huh.  Do you have any idea how many gas supergiants we've
 catalogued in M64 already?  And even so, we probably haven't
 discovered more than one percent of the total number that exist in
 this galaxy, even with the Jia Ron Drull's scan data."

 "This search could take..."

 "Weeks.  Months!"

 "Yes, weeks or months!"

 "So what?  So it takes weeks.  Or months.  Do you have anything
 better to do?  Want to get your head handed to you by the Pfhor
 again?"

 "Hmph.  So, we find this energy signature... find the Jjaro.  Then
 what?"

 "S'buuth claims that every bit of technology the Pfhor have is
 reverse-engineered from the Jjaro.  If we find a Jjaro artifact,
 maybe *we* could have anti-proton energy weapons, too.  Did you
 think about that?"

 "So we find the Jjaro, or better still, some Jjaro ruins and then we
 loot the hell out of them."

 "That's the plan."
