> "I vote we split up," Ted suggests. "Half of us go fore, the other
> half go aft. We can meet back here in an hour. Objections?"

> [Koba]
> "Sounds like a good idea Ted. First thing we need to do is see
> if we can get an idea of who's ship this is and if they are still here
> somewhere. Keep an eye out for them. I'll stay here and look at
> these monitors to see if I can learn anything about how much life
> support we have for all of us."

> [Ted]
> "Thanks, Koba. Owen, can you sense where the passengers are
> located right now?"
> [/Ted]

> [Carlos] Carlos will watch the techies do their work, but rifle in
> hand, always jittery, in case something bad happens.
> [/Carlos]

> [Alex]
> "I doubt the boat is that large," states Alex. "I don't think we should
> be out of contact that long. I would suggest twenty minutes."
> [/Alex]

> [Owen]
> "It should be quick, looking at the size of this sub.  I'll head with
> those headed aft."
> [/Owen]

> [Ted]
> "That will work," Ted replies. "I will lead the team going forward. Who
> is with me?"
> [/Ted]

[GM]
In the end Ted takes Alex and Carlos with him, while Owen takes Lyle and
Louissa with him.  Koba and Osiris remain on the bridge.
