Nah... the Admiral let me have that one as a freebie, actually. Except-- only in one timeline, I guess, or only in half of them, or whatever... I just know, I mean, I know I took it back, but when I went home he was still dead. [And now he's frowning, because that's really been bothering him.]

I think the Admiral did it to show me what could've happened without the Barge. What did happen, in some worlds.
