Tove shook his head.
"If that's old 228, she ain't got but the one 50mm rifle," Chip said. "She cain't figure on jumpin' the whole planet."
"Hard to say what she figures on," Retief said. "Mr. Tony will be in a mood for drastic measures."
"I wonder what kind o' deal the skunks got with the Sweaties," Chip said. "Prob'ly he gits to scavenge, after the Sweaties kill off the Jorgensens."
"He's upset about our leaving him without saying good-bye, Chip," Retief said. "And you left the door hanging open, too."
Chip cackled. "Old Mr. Tony don't look so good to the Sweaties now, hey, Mister?"
Retief turned to Bo Bergman.
"Chip's right," he said. "A Soetti died on the ship, and a tourist got through the cordon. Tony's out to redeem himself."
"He's on final now," the tower operator said. "Still no contact."
"We'll know soon enough what he has in mind," Tove said.
