"My intitial impression of Mr. Steiner is this. He annoyed me. I
tried on more than one occasion to meet with him privately and was
never able to have a meeting with him. I didn't speak to him more
than a couple of times in the corridor of the ship. That's all I
would put in a report Lieutenant. And I always keep my eyes open. I
stay out of more trouble that way. There's nothing else to report
really. And I have my instructions about who to report what I see to.
I'm afraid you'll have to take that matter up with a higher authority
Lieutenant. I'm sorry but even on the beach. I have my orders."

Now I am annoyed, truly.
In a truly sarcastic tone.
"I'm sure I wouldn't know what my uncle was planning. I'm sure you
are much better informed on that than I."
