woman:
It's frustrating! Our factory was in business for well
over three generations!
We could hold our heads high, sent our products to the most discerning
buyers?
man:
What else we
could do?!
We can't get the gasoline we need to run our equipment anymore!
And even if we could, it would add too much to our costs!
The only people who would lend enough money to people like
us
to buy new machinery are those low life loan shark thugs.
woman:
You don't thinkthose people will chase us all the way to the
moon, do you?
man:
No...
woman:
Who was it who discovered resources out in space,
anyway?
man:
That's why we decided to die xxxxxxx in space...
It'll be much easier on Sia that way.
woman:
You're right.
She really does love being space, doesn't she...
