The warbot gives a quick karate chop to the pack of the ship, the residue sparking and sending Tester-Three hurtling backwards with a resounding thud. A second thud soon follows, as a small chunk of the outer fuselage, rusted and rotten, finally detaches and hits the ground, scraping off some of the garish yellow paint with it.

Yelana goes to the cockpit, and sees that it was unlocked, a green light on the side signifying as much. It seemed that the ship droid was programmed to act as something as a key fob as well. Convenient, if you were the ship owner. A bit dour, if you were having your ship looked at illegally. Disastrous, if you yourself were a felon and a smuggler. The agent had access to the cockpit, and found that it was a rather dated system. A simple red leather seat, a bit worn and stained from food.

The computer itself was incredibly simplistic, and only contained flight data from the most recent journey he had taken... a breakneck jaunt from the GLESP headquarters to the very docking spot they were in now.

Step through, knock on the left four times. Wait a minute. Knock again. Follow these instructions precisely, Jek. See, that wasn't so hard. Why the wait before the fifth knock? 567086: Don't question that. Just show up as you promised. Destroy this data pad. But it's brand new. 567086: Sorry, sorry, so sorry, Jek.

I checked the flight logs - The ship came directly from GLESP, so it must've been docked there for a while. Otherwise, Vannoy would have reported that Jek also stole a ship. My guess is that this was Jek's personal ship, and that he's somehow involved with the workers' rights movement. This is very interesting - I definitely need to talk to Faeja again.

Hmmm. . . Scan for genetic material - That might give us something to track. Oh - And speaking of: Find that tracker Vannoy mentioned, and cross-check the data with the ship's flight log. Look for discrepancies, and make sure to download everything. By the way, remember when I said that something's off about this mission? Yeah, that. Vannoy said that Jek was a "fine worker", but "fine workers" don't join workers' rights movements. "Fine workers" do their jobs, keep their heads down, don't make noise, are grateful for whatever they're paid - That kind of thing.
