Prime Time

Solid premiers.  Of them the most interesting to me are Secrets of the Dead Lost Ships of Rome and Circus, both on PBS.

Keith is bringing back ‘Worst Person In The World’.  I wonder what’s behind that?

I’m Burke. Carter Burke. I work for the company. But don’t let that fool you, I’m really an okay guy.

…

Look, this is an emotional moment for all of us, okay? I know that. But, let’s not make snap judgments, please. This is clearly-clearly an important species we’re dealing with and I don’t think that you or I, or anybody, has the right to arbitrarily exterminate them.

Those specimens, are worth millions to the bio-weapons corperation. If you’re smart, we can both come out of it as heroes and we’ll be set up for life.

You’re really crazy Burke, you know that. You really think that you can get a dangerous organism like that passed ICC quarantine?

How can they impound it if they don’t know about it?

They “will” know about it, Burke, from me. Like they’ll know that you are responsible for the deaths if 158 colonists here.

You’re wrong.

I just read the colony log. Dated 0-6-1-2-7-9 signed Burke Carter J. You sent them to that ship and you didn’t warn them. Why didn’t you warn them, Burke?

Okay. What if that ship didn’t even exist, huh didn’t you ever think about that? I didn’t know. I went in and made a major security issue out of it, and everybody steps in, and the Administraor steps in., and I made a decision and it was a bad call, Ripley, it was a bad call.

Bad call? These people are dead Burke! Don’t you have any idea what you have done here? I ‘m gonna make sure they nail you right to the wall for this, you’re not gonna sleaze your way out of this one. Right to the wall.

You know Ripley, I was hoping that you would be smarter than this.

I’m happy to disappoint you.

…

You know, Burke, I don’t know which species is worse. You don’t see them fucking each other over for a goddamn percentage.
