thrown out as an anchor. The Liver was now working on a plan of enlarging the door or shrinking Drag so the latter could also fly inside the Mess.

era lançado como uma ancora. Liver não estava trabalhando em um plano para aumentar a porta ou encolher Drag para que esse também pudesse voar dentro do Mess. Parecia que teriam que encolhe-lo já que ele era maior do que o avião de qualquer maneira. Enquanto isso, dentro do navio Otto tinha seus olhos colados ao telescópio. Otto nunca gostou de cola-los assim, mas foi isso que Captain Past o mandara fazer, então ele o fazia. De qualquer maneira, não era tão ruim já que isso deixava o resto de seu corpo livre para passear pelo navio; não que houvesse outro comodo para vaguear. "Eu sabia que um modelo tão barato seria pequeno", sibilou Otto. "Bom, isso era tudo que tinhamos" desdenhou Liver do outro lado da cabine. "Pare de respirar na minha cara", ciciou o android. "Não é minha culpa", escarrou Liver. "Se você não gosta vire seu rosto para lá". "Eu não posso", respondeu Otto. "Minha orelha ficou presa na escolilha". "Não consegue sair?" perguntou Liver, desdenhando uma vez mais. "Sim", respondeu o android. "Mas você sabe que a companhia do modelo não fornece assas para o Mess". "De acordo com meus olhos que estão acima do telescópio, estamos próximos da Terra", resaltou Otto. ... Um terrivel estrondo ressoou pelo ar. "É isso que acontece se você ficar olhando pela lado errado do telescópio", disse Captain Past, calmamente removendo uma helice do seu pescoço. Ele então juntou sua cabeça de volta ao corpo
