- Narrator: The time: the future. The place: deep space. Aboard the mother ship "Scavenger", the shuttlecraft "Vulcher", prepares for take off. At the helm Commander John Leslie and a trainee rookie squad. Their mission: To locate the stricken cargo ship "Cyclops", legacy of a long gone intergalatic war. To scavenge, salvage and survive with honor! These are... The Scavengers!
- John Leslie: We've lost four good Scavengers there.
- Android: Yes, Commander. It is a shame. We forfeit their salvage. Nigel and Angela would had scored 203 salvage points. Ian and Joanne.
- John Leslie: Never mind the points! What about the people?
- Android: Forget the Scavengers, Commander. Take Vulcher home.
- John Leslie: Android.
- Android: Yes, Commander?
- John Leslie: As it is just you and me, perhaps we could take this opportunity to get to know each other a little better.
- Android: But, Commander, I already know everything there is to know about you.
- John Leslie: Not everything, Android.
- Android: Well, I will look forward to an update.
- John Leslie: I'll take you home.
- John Leslie: At least you can say "Thank you!", Android!
- Android: An interesting lesson in defence, Commander.
- John Leslie: Why do I bother with you? You overgrown anarchists? - Androids!
- Android: When you depart Vulcher, you will face an alien environment. If you wish to succeed in your mission, you will use my information wisely. I will guide and monitor your progress from the control room. Let us hope you survive.
- Android: Cyclops. Length, 16 kilometers. 156 levels. Condition degenerating. Environment hostile. Multiple salvage units available. Landing possible to level 19 control room. Let us hope you survive.
- John Leslie: Come on! forget the salvage. Just get yourselves on-board.
- Android: 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1. Blast off, Commander!
- John Leslie: No! I'm not flying this thing, Android!
- Android: The choice is yours, Commander. Either you do or I will. Prepare to clear Cyclops, now!
- John Leslie: I need more time, Android! More time!
- Android: 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 -1.
- John Leslie: No!
- Android: Blast off, Commander!
