"By all means." His face took on the serious look again and he glanced
around the viewscreen, as if to see who else was within earshot. "Admiral
Brennan was part of a team that went in and, umm, liberated one of our most
valuable deep cover moles in Orion territory. I'm not supposed to know

to help, Admiral, you have my commcode. I promise my secretary won't put
you off next time."
