 How does Burleigh feel about Moran?
From the viewpoint of the Nadine's ship's company, it was simply necessary to get rid of Moran. The fact was verified by the thick, dense cloud-masses which covered most of the surface,—all the surface, in fact, outside the ice-cap. But since there were ice-caps there would be temperate regions. In short, the ice-cap proved that a man could endure the air and temperature conditions he would find. Moran observed these things from the control-room of the Nadine , then approaching the world on planetary drive. Burleigh said encouragingly; "It doesn't look too bad, Moran!" Moran disagreed, but he did not answer. They didn't seem to resent what he'd tried to do, or that he'd brought them an indefinite distance in an indefinite direction from their last landing-point, and they had still to re-locate themselves. Wherever the yacht landed, such a disparity between its documents and its crew would spark an investigation. Moran, at least, would be picked out as a fugitive from Coryus Three. A liner could re-locate itself without trouble. The process would be to find a planet and check its climate and relationship to other planets, and its flora and fauna against descriptions in the Directory. "It's weak," observed Burleigh. Burleigh said they'd been Underground people, fighting the government of their native world, and they'd gotten away to make it seem the revolt had collapsed.
 Burleigh is angry with Moran for putting the crew in this position. They don't want to kill Moran, but they can't arrive with 6 crew. A marooned man at least has a fighting chance.
 Burleigh thinks Moran is annoying. They would be at their intended destination now if Moran hadn't highjacked the Nadine.  Burleigh respects Moran. He doesn't want to kill him, but he can't keep Moran on the Nadine. A marooned man at least has a fighting chance.  Burleigh is angry with Moran for putting the crew in this position. They don't want to kill Moran, but they can't arrive with 6 crew. A marooned man at least has a fighting chance.  Moran intimidates Burleigh. Moran took control of the ship once, if the crew is not careful, he may do it again.
