    I suspect that the Ofans will (politely) grab the ship saying it was theirs/stolen property and leave the Toughs hanging and the UNS "displeased".
    How this plays out is going to turn my opinion of the reawakened Oafans.

    If they're here to grab this ship and leave the Toughs and embassy staff in a lurch, then they're just another "powerful idiot" faction.

    If they're here to free up the ship and crew so that the Toughs can carry out the contract they (the Oafans) have with the Toughs that's been referenced by Tagon, then at least they're not total idiots.

    It is one thing to suspend your disbelief. It is another thing entirely to hang it by the neck until dead.

    Verisimilitude -- n, the appearance or semblance of truth, likelihood, or probability.

    The concern is not realism in speculative fiction, but rather the sense that a setting or story could be real, fostered by internal consistency and coherence.
