It's a little strange -- when fabbers have been a thing in the strip for well over a decade and functional immortality has become a thing and the main cast is approaching saving the galaxy from 3 different fronts -- to see someone trying some basic nepotistic graft over a single shipment of physical goods. Reminds me of the earlier hand-to-mouth days for the mercenaries where enough money to eat out at a fancy restaurant was a couple week's plot. :-)
