That will not be necessary, Ethereal lackey.
For, this fool, this cadaver, is now property of the MIND and the QUEEN and
the SWARM and the SPAWN.  In a matter of minutes he will have constructed
the first dimension gate for us - from playing cards!  Muhahaha, you
starspawn fools would enver have expected that, and you will pay for it.
Prepare to reap the whirlwind of the alien dimension, muhaha-
<pause>
Um, never mind.  Looks like someone wants to play Solitaire.  The dimension
gate project has been put on hold whilst it is forcibly dismembered.  Ahem.
So, yes.  X-COM then.
