Something’s afoot. This ambassador has some inside dope.
Funny, I just watched a Star Trek episode where a Romulan Admiral defected. He was being pursued by a Romulan warship and barely made it to safety on the USS Enterprise.
It ended with the Admiral giving up all kinds of worthless misinformation and the Romulans having tested him for loyalty. His family (now the family of a traitor) was left behind on the home world in disgrace.
He had sacrificed everything for naught...wound up committing suicide.
