Oh. Oh, no. That was such a potentially bad idea, depending on exactly what "info" was leaked.

Just when they were starting to talk...

Yeah, Riff is going to be even more upset when he sees who's on the other end of that call. The last time he saw Sasha, she shot at him, right?

Didn't Torg and Zoe see her on Nifty News during the political scandal? Riff might have seen that too. Either way, the gun shot was likely the last tiime in person, yup.

This time, I consider Riff's reaction justified... and so, I think, does Torg, judging by his obvious embarrassment.

Seriously, Torg? You didn't think to mention Gwynn's side mission to Riff?

There's lots of interpretations, though. One of them being that now Russia and China know that this technology exists. And that hC has it and is attempting to put it into orbit. Countries have started wars for much less.

I'd assume the info was all sent. Baiting a country to help without telling them what they're up against is cruel. And as soon as they TRIED going up against it, they'd quickly learn how powerful it is. Sending them in blind wouldn't help anyone.

Technology gets spread out into the world all the time. The nifty universe will have to adapt eventually, just as they did with steam power, mass production, nukes, etc. Add DFA to the list and place your bets on the future.

I figured this was Pete's way of saying "It's the world's problem now. Riff and Torg can't be responsible for the planet by themselves"
