Oh Nogg. I love your kind heart. And practicality.

On the wingship, Nogg and Krep addressed Picknar, Thoos, Rodrigo, Knox, and Purrloin. Nogg said, “Listen, I don’t know how things played out when we picked you up, but I suspect Krep was awful to all of you.” Krep said, “By ‘awful’ he means ‘effective’.” Nogg said, “So, if you feel that us dropping you here puts you in real danger, just tell me and we’ll all leave. now.” Thoos said, “You do know that we’ve already landed on my parents’ estate, right? If you try to leave without handing us over, they’ll just blow us up. They have the tech to do that.” Exiting the wingship, Nogg said, “Glad we had this little chat. Well, look at that, it’s time for you to disembark.”

Ah, back to the other folks involved. I’d almost forgotten them.
Howdy Ma, Howdy Pa! Its me, your wayward Sonny boy! Don’t shoot!
Things are about to blow up anyway.
Classic Nogg. Well-meaning, a touch noble, but in a way that always undercuts the gesture through sheer incompetence.
Somehow, he’s always *just* incompetent enough to frustrate the rest of the characters and make it funny, but not enough to do any real damage.
well,* that’s* one really good incentive!
“[…]They’ll just blow us up. They have the tech to do that.”
…so, a big gun?
Yeah… But it is used to eject their garbage into the nearest star.
And now the masquerade reaches its incomprehensible climax. Misunderstanding and misinterpretation so thick you can’t walk through it. Whee!
