You misunderstand my intent, Kabal. I'm not just here to scold you. Quite the opposite; I want to make you a proposal.
Cut me in. With my expertise, you won't run the risk of blowing up the station or setting loose some deadly xenoparasite. I'll even let you take most of the credit, and should something go wrong, I'll go to bat for you.
I don't ask much in return - just an equal share of the loot, first refusal on pieces of scientific interest, and to be included in all such attempts in future. What do you think?
