Interviewing the New Man

At the committee building the members were busy interviewing Raymond on his race. Where they had come from and their history. They also asked for a detailed description of the cube.

"Ok, now here is a question maybe you answer for me," Jimmy asked finally taking his turn.

Raymond turned to him, "Sure ask me anything."

"Do you know of anyway we could access this planets A.I. system without the cube?"

Raymond shook his head no and his whole irises light up.

"Bitch, please," Zerek snapped at him. "Did you think we wouldn't know that that means you are lying?"

Raymond had actually planned on telling them but he had wanted to see how they would react to his lie meter. Seeing him break into a smile they understood what he had done. They knew he had questions of his own and didn't hold a grudge.

"On an orbit around this sun a little further back, there's a moon sized asteroid that has access to all the main systems of the closest planet. That is actually where I was trying to flee to," Raymond informed them.

"Well then I guess we know what Jessica is doing tomorrow," the Q's said in unison.

"That is a little creepy just so you know," Raymond said in response.

"How" "do" "you" "like" "it" "when" "we" "do" "this" passing the sentence back and forth and both saying this.

"It is creepy as all get out and cool at the same time," Raymond replied, "Why does Jessica need to be the one to go? It is my system I know how to operate it."

"Do you also know the password?" Jimmy asked sarcastically.

"Well not if it has been changed but I doubt anyone is smart enough to do that," Raymond said.

"Who here would change the password right away if they got their hands on the cube?," Jimmy asked and everyone raised their hands.

"I take it the races not of your world were all a less intelligent than your own," Zerek asked out of curiosity.

"Yes but it seems the universe may have changed since my time," Zerek said sighing. He really did want to help them. He would not do well on his own for very long.

"How about we have him create a 3d model of the asteroid and its path around the sun so Jessica has a chance in actually hitting it?," Zalora suggested. They all nodded. They talked him through how to program a hologram and he got started. When he was done they decided the Q's would go with Jessica in case she ran into any problems. She had worn herself out the day before and even though there was plenty of daylight left today they thought they should wait to tell her.
