Blimey! Already recording! Well, yes. It's me, Paul Kirkpatrick, former first mate and weapon officer, now only first mate.

At least you listen to me without giving stupid advices. So. There's this new girl aboard, Ms. Gates. Logan said he met her in a bar on Leeds a few days ago and he just promoted her to weapon officer 40 minutes ago. Now that's a bit hasty, isn't it? At least I brought him to terms and told him to leave her under my supervision. She might probably be a more skilled gunner than I am but you simply don't leave people in charge you barely know when you're not on the bridge. We don't even know her first name. She's quite tight-lipped in general. I don't trust her. I mean, she could be a Kusari agent or something, couldn't she? It's a matter of Bretonia's security to observe her. And Paul Kirkpatrick won't let the Queen down in these troubled times, that's for sure!
