The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Leon continues.
Leon: Two of those armored cars contain some very nasty surprises; the others are empty.
Leon: Not even I know which vehicles contain the devices.
Panel 2
Leon presses a button on the electronic gear resting in a case in front of him.
Leon: I am now arming the devices and starting a countdown.
The Device: Chirp!
Panel 3
We see the screen of shocked representatives.
Leon (OP): The only way the countdown stops, is if I periodically send out a reset signal. If I am not here to reset the countdown...
Takahashi: You are bluffing.
Panel 4
The US representative broke the silence.
US Rep: I don't know about any armored cars, but the US wants to go on the record to say that this grand mission to Mars was vetted and approved by President Taylor shortly after his inauguration.
US Rep: It was kept a secret in order to protect the project from terrorist threats.
Panel 5
Closer shot of the US Representative.
US Rep: I believe my colleague from the Russian Federation was aware of this need for silence and that his government approved from the very beginning.
US Rep: Isn't that right, Sergei?
Panel 6
Sergei confidently supports the US Rep.
Sergei: Da, from beginning. And attack on ISS is an attack on Russian modules, which are Russian territory. Would be act of war.
