You might be overestimating their manpower and competency. -- nm - Bery the Hutt May 4, 12:54 9
- I'm pretty sure they can scrounge up 4 guys for something like this. - Reagen May 4, 12:58 8
  - I dunno, I always thought of Air Marshals as being a scarcer commodity than that. -- nm - Bery the Hutt May 4, 12:59 7
    - It's a dude that tried to set off a bomb. They'll call guys in. - Reagen May 4, 13:01 6
      - You assume they had enough time. He didn't buy this ticket days in advance. - Ender May 4, 13:05 2

        Better, because he might give more info accidentally. - Reagen May 4, 13:03 1
        
        Interesting thoughts. I see what you're saying. - Bery the Hutt May 4, 13:04
