James raises his head towards Jason.. "Good day?.. Well, I guess you could say so, it's been going pretty well so far today.. So far.."
He lowers his head again as he raises the cup towards his lips, sipping from it. "Usually we get swarms of outcasts with warships, not today though.. Do you think they're planning something?" James turns his head towards Jason again.. "Something big."
As Jason was about to answer that question, a very loud alarm goes off:
"Alert! Station is under attack, assume defensive positions immediately!"

"Ah, I knew it!" James thought to himself as he ran towards the Docking Bay. He ran as fast as he could and jumped straight into his Liberator. Then, he tried to start the engines.. and they just didn't.. Something seemed to be broken, or perhaps he was doing it wrong? No way, he's done it so many times before and it has worked just fine so far. He tried again and again, but it wasn't working, not even a slight indication of the ship systems being online.

"You have to be kidding me!" James exclaims as he disembarks his ship. He takes a walk around it.. Two.. Three. He looked at it in detail, but he couldn't find anything. Everything was in order! Or.. that's what he thought at least. He tried to get into the ship once again and start the engines.. Still no response at all. He kicked back, looking around himself, trying to find some sort of a clue. A few seconds later he did it. He looked at the newly installed coffee machine in his ship. It seemed alright at first, but then he noticed that it was turned on. The power supply on it was set to "MAX POWER - ONLY EMERGENCY USE".. James thought to himself.. No way he could have left it on.. In fact, why would he ever set it to Max anyway? He shrugged, and after a moment of thinking he extended his hand towards the power supply and turned the machine off.

The engines of the ship started as soon as he did that.. "Power Online, welcome back, pilot." could be heard emitting from his on-board computer. "Uhhhh..." said James as he shook his head. He knew it definetly wasn't him whom turned the beast machine on, but who did then? Maybe it is some kind of a newly invented prank for Recruits.. He could only guess..

He shook his head once again, before finally taking off. As soon as he flew out of the docking bay he saw an explosion. That was the last remaining Rogue attacking the station. The explosion was followed by his fellow officers cheering.. Indeed, they must've been some kind of psychopaths if they decided to attack the Police Headquarters... or any Sunbucks cafe in existence.
