Thorax says, "My own species evolved on a very warlike planet… xenophobic, reactionary, with an ethnocentric, fundamentalist zeal to cleanse the universe of all but our own kind." Thorax says, "In time this zeal focused on a highly civilzed world in a neighboring star system." Thorax says, "Upon it lived a race of beings who had progressed beyond conflict and conquest to a philosophy of strength through peaceful example. It was their belief that their image would draw all who beheld them onto a higher plane of being... and verily they arrived on our world, and we saw their faces and heard their words, and we knew we were in the presence of greatness." Thorax says, "And we bade them welcome with outstretched hands." Woman says, "And did these beings contribute to your culture?" Thorax says, "Indeed they did." Thorax says, "They are especially good with bechamel sauce, and just a hint of nutmeg."
