Seventh Trial

[Once again the stretching room descends and the Hatbox Ghost seems impatient.]

Ugh where's that Serling guy's stupid death elevator when you need it? This is taking forever.

[But soon enough you arrive in the trial room, now with Freddie and Jyn's voodoo dolls on their podiums. And your 100% new friend Hatbox Ghost is there too!]

If you guys don't all die next week, I'm installing the death elevator.

[He doesn't know, fam.]

Jyn was in the bar last night, but...

[Leia shakes her head.]

I can't recall for the life of me if she was drinking or not. We were too wrapped up in conversation.

[...no, Stan—]

Aspirin is a blood thinner, though, that’s not fake.

. . . No, I'm pretty sure they're chemically different.

Oh, sure, maybe chemically. But functionally it's all the same. You got pain, you take it, you don't got pain.

[Stan, is your plan here to piss off Ford enough that the sheer force of his WELL ACTUALLY breaks into the manor or...]

[Hiro knows enough chemistry to be like "that sounds fake?" but not enough to argue about it. And this is kind of not. On topic? So he's just gonna let Stan have this.]

Okay sure, Mr. Pines.
