			`	You walk over to ask what might be wrong. After some glances back and forth a bespectacled woman answers. "Our research just ... took off." Her shoulders droop as she looks at the ground. "Years of research, now running around uselessly above us." She sighs, then looks back up at you. "Sorry, manners. I'm Dr. Danifry, and we're scientists with Kraz Cybernetics. We had just finished loading prototype equipment onto a ship for field tests when the ship took off without any of us aboard. Would you be willing to disable the ship for us? It shouldn't have left the system, and if you can disable it, we should have no trouble taking a shuttle up and continuing our work."`
			choice
				`	"Of course, no problem."`
					goto ready
				`	"What do I get out of it?"`
			`	The scientists trade worried looks until Dr. Danifry speaks up. "We don't have budget to hire you properly, but if you help us we can ... redirect one of our prototypes to you." One of the other scientists starts to object, but Danifry cuts him off. "For security reasons, I can't tell you what it is, but I can say that it's intended for eventual retail sale at over one hundred thousand credits. A single prototype won't be missed, but only if we can recover what's in that ship. Agreed?"`
			choice
				`	"That sounds reasonable."`
					goto ready
				`	"Sorry, no dice."`
			`	Dr. Danifry frowns, then nods stiffly. "That's all we can offer, sorry." The scientists turn and walk away.`
				decline
			label ready
			`	Dr. Danifry's face relaxes. "Thank you. The ship is just a freighter, so it shouldn't be too difficult to disable. And as mentioned, it should still be in the system." You turn to head to your ship. "Oh, wait! One more thing! The equipment is a a bit unpredictable, so please don't board the ship. It may be dangerous if it's malfunctioning."`

			`Dr. Danifry is waiting for you when you land. You tell them about the lack of life signs, and she looks at you blankly for a moment. Then she seems to figure out what you're implying, and says, "That's ... not unexpected, and nothing to worry about. Here, let's get your new equipment set up and I think you'll understand."`
			`	She turns to a nearby dock system console and types a few things in. Robots load two items covered in tarps into your cargo bay. Once inside, she pulls the tarp from one, and underneath is a robot in the shape of a human! Dr. Danifry looks pleased at your surprise.`

This second package is the robot's docking station, where it sorts and processes the day's neural input and shares data with any other connected robots."`
			`	She installs the docking station and explains how to use the robot. Apparently, it should last for at least two centuries in working order, as long as it gets an hour of downtime each day cycle. "Of course, you didn't hear any of this from me. And I'd appreciate it if you kept her hidden until they hit the market."`
			`	"Fortunately, since you saved our field test, that should only take a couple weeks. I'd rather not imagine how badly we'd have been set back if you hadn't helped us. Thank you again."`
