 Which term does NOT describe Moran's tone toward the other five crew members?
Moran, naturally, did not mean to help in the carrying out of the plans which would mean his destruction one way or another. The plans were thrashed out very painstakingly, in formal conference on the space-yacht Nadine , with Moran present and allowed to take part in the discussion. From the viewpoint of the Nadine's ship's company, it was simply necessary to get rid of Moran. Moran observed these things from the control-room of the Nadine , then approaching the world on planetary drive. Moran disagreed, but he did not answer. Moran, at least, would be picked out as a fugitive from Coryus Three. And Moran was the extra man whose presence would rouse space-port officials' suspicion of the rest. Only people accustomed to desperate actions would have remained so calm when Moran had used desperate measures against them. Moran wondered, momentarily, what sort of world they came from and why they had revolted, and what sort of set-back to the revolt had sent the five off in what they considered a strategic retreat but their government would think defeat. Moran's own situation was perfectly clear. His victim would not be mourned by anybody, and somebody formerly in very great danger would now be safe, which was the reason for what Moran had done. Moran had needed to get off-planet, and fast. But his present companions got the drive dismantled two days later and once the yacht was out of overdrive they efficiently gave him his choice of surrendering or else.
