And certainly wasn't expecting to have to defend them against a line of questioning from a TALKING CAT.
Skellig makes a bit of a face at that detail, then glances up at Cylon. "And you have proof of the death of the original debtor, I would imagine?" Because while yes he has heard it from Xenophon, can Cylon prove it? Or perhaps there is another angle further down they can try to take advantage of?
(He does not want to make Cylon too nervous, as it might make negotiations of price risky. They could easily buy these outright, he assumes. But he needs to know what exactly the debt is... and how much has been paid on it so far. Clearly both Kirke and Xenophon HAVE been working towards it.)
