Hey, Shepard here. I know we have an eclectic bunch on this ship, and I could really use some help right now. I'm not affiliated with the Halcyon - just passing through.My ship is going to be coming into Batuu on the 29th and it's carrying some very precious cargo necessary for my capacitators. They need a little more Resistance to be fully operational, yeah?I'm hoping that you'll help me.I can trust you, right?

Transmission interrupted.

<Shepard> For the Order? Please tell me you aren't one of those First Order sympath---

Intercepting Transmission...

Connection established.Receiving Holocall from Lieutenant Dave Audette.Transmitting...

This is Lieutenant Dave Audette of the First Order. Your loyalty is both commendable and appreciated. However, we have work to do.I suspect rebel activity aboard the Halcyon - specifically, a twi'lek that goes by "Shepard". We've been intercepting some encrypted messages.The First Order needs YOU to help decrypt the message. No doubt it will bring valuable intelligence to help restore order to the galaxy.Will you assist us?

<Lt. Audette> I knew I could count on such an upstanding citizen. I've attached the encrypted message we intercepted below. Please make quick work of it and deliver me the results.

Receiving transmission...

<Lt. Audette> I knew I could count on such an upstanding citizen. I've attached the encrypted message we intercepted below. Please make quick work of it and deliver me the results.

<Lt. Audette> Well? What does it say?

"Galavant"? Really? What else did it say? Hmm. Whoever sent the transmission has some connection with Shepard. The good news is we can use this passcode to decode the next transmission that comes through.I'm certain there will be vital intelligence on resistance and rebel sympathizers. Wherever that woman goes, chaos follows. No one gives her enough attention because she's just one twi'lek, but I'm -certain- we will be able to find something of value.For the Order!

Receiving transmission...

<Lt. Audette> Scroll through the message and enter the passcode. Let's see what we have here. How many rebels will we be arresting today?

Decrypting transmission...

<Aidan> Connection established Kat.<Shepard> I can always count on you Aidan.<Aidan> Have you made a decision? I know it’s a difficult choice. So much is riding on it…<Shepard>I know – it could be aces and eights or the whole thing can blow up in our face. I know I need to decide.<Aidan>I’m certain you’ll make the right decision as I’m sure the sun will be out in Batuu when you get there.<Shepard>There are far too many suns on Batuu. If the first order wants to destroy something – can’t they destroy one of the suns? Wouldn’t that be a public service? Instead of destroying people's lives.<Aidan> Kat, you need to need to decide.<Shepard> What do you think, Aidan…Tip Yip or Bantha? Tip Yip would be a change, but Bantha is my favorite. I wonder if they’d do it over a flame and get those nice grill marks…<Aidan> I have an entire line behind me, love. WHAT DO YOU WANT TO EAT…<Shepard> Bantha.<Aidan> Ok—<Shepard> No no.. no Tip Yip.<Aidan> O—<Shepard> NO Bantha. Final decision--

<Lt. Audette> I'm sorry - what were they talking about?Are you telling me our only resistance lead can't decide where she wants to eat for DINNER? THAT'S the message we intercept?Never mind that - she has a first name? It's not "just Shepard".We haven't caught anything suspicious I suppose this time. But be on guard! The resistance can be anyone or anything.Good work decrypting...whatever it was that I just read that I wish I hadn't.

Incoming Transmission...

<Lt. Audette> It looks like the integrity of the transmission is questionable at best. You need to select the right code letter to complete the circuit. There must be a pattern...

<Lt. Audette> That seems to have done it. Let's see what we have here...

Incoming Transmission...

Signal jammed...

<Lt. Audette> Karabast! The signal has been jammed.Is...is that a raspberry?Citizen, we must find incriminating evidence on Shepard if it is the last thing we do. No one should ever dare giving a Lieutenant of the First Order the raspberry!Quickly. Decipher the jamming signal pattern and get us past that raspberry!

What number fits that last sector? There must be a pattern of some sort...

Signal Connection Reestablished...

<Lt Audette> Great. We're in. Let's see what we have here.

<Begin Transmission>We've been trying to reach you concerning your Tie Fighter's extended warranty.You should've received a notice in the mail about your spacecraft's extended warranty eligibility.Since we've not gotten a response, we're giving you a final courtesy call before we close out your file.Press 2 to be removed and placed on our do-not-call list. To speak to someone about possibly extending or reinstating your spacecraft's warranty, press 1 to speak with a warranty specialist.

Well, that certainly could have gone a lot worse. Thank you for your guidance. You are truly to be commended. It looks like we aren't picking up any more signals to intercept currently, but stay vigilant - Resistance spies could be anywhere!What do you get for assisting the First Order? Is my gratitude not enough?
