1 Paris: So what are those two idiots up to anyway?
2 Spanners: Buying illegal weapons for the ship.
3 Paris: But... That's illegal! They could get themselves arrested, or shot, or worse! How could you let them go?!
4 Paris: Oh... clever.

The light of dawning realisation.

2017-05-06 Rerun commentary: In hindsight, what actually ends up happening to Serron and Iki Piki probably is worse than those things Paris mentions. Though for the benefit of anyone reading along these reruns as they happen for the first time, I won't say any more about that here...

Thinking about it a bit more, Paris could just as easily have said, "They could get themselves arrested, or shot, or killed, or worse!" And what I said above might still be true...
