Several months later, as the ship was over [[Joyous Exultation]] with the rest of the [[Combined Fleet of Righteous Purpose]], Kwassass discovered a [[NOVA]] bomb that has been taken aboard along with the rest of the equipment for study by the [[Engineers]]. The control panel for it became detached, but Kwassass managed to activate a recording of a threat from [[Admiral Whitcomb]] without any harm to the vessel or the fleet. After listening to it several times, he had a vague understanding of what it meant, but not the specifics of the message. However, the Control Panel's power went out, sparking an interest in the nearby Engineers to fix it and give it power.
