I don't really blame the guards. It was a crunch situation, and they fell back on their prime directive: Never let a host escape.
But honestly, they could have handled things a little more intelligently. They knew the involuntaries considered us traitors to our species; didn't it occur to them that locking me in a small cage with one might not be the best idea? Especially if he happened to be a professional hockey player who was suspended twice for "unnecessary roughness"?
Oh, well.
Niss, if you're still down there, I just want you to know that I love you.
