Dib looked back at Gir on the computer screen. "I have to go. Talk to you later, Gir."
"Okie-dokie!" The screen phased out.
Dib turned around. It was Tak all right... "How did you get out of jail?"
"Those cells were built by Irken slave labor." She narrowed her eyes. "I know how to get out of them."
Dib raised his mirror like a weapon. "Don't think I won't hit a girl."
"I'm not going to fight you...yet." She glanced around the room. "Why are you here and not on your own planet?"
"I can ask you the same thing, but either way the answer is the same - because I helped destroy Irk!"
"So I've noticed... While I was stranded on a lone asteroid, there was a huge slave rebellion - and they enlisted your help, am I correct?" Dib nodded. "And you killed everyone."
"I didn't really do any fighting," Dib confessed, feeling rather flighty under Tak's ominous gaze. "I...just...infiltrated..."
"So, in a sense, it's ALL your fault!"
"No, I did nothing! Zim was the one who - "
"Zim is DEAD!" Tak backed Dib up against the computer. "You took care of him already - but now I need to destroy YOU!"
Dib's left hand was on the Resisty Communication Button. He tried pressing it, but it was no good - the computer needed to be on in order for it to work. Curse that new-age technology! But he had an idea...
"Uh...before you destroy me, can I order pizza?"
"Huh?" Tak gave the cloaked human a skeptical glare.
"Pizza - I want to order a pizza." He smiled nervously. "I'll share it with you, if you'd like."
"All right, make it quick." She stepped back to give him room to work.
Immediately, Dib turned the computer on. He couldn't believe Tak had fallen for that! As soon as the screen turned on, Dib opened his mouth to say that he was being held hostage by an escaped convict, but a decorative vase came crashing down against his skull, knocking him out.
"Stupid human," Tak muttered. "As if I didn't know he was going to call for help." She approached the computer disdainfully.
"I am Tak, Last of the Superior Irken Race!" she boldly announced. "And I have your precious Emperor. If you ever want to see him alive again, you must pay me six hundred and sixty-six million monies!"
"The Resisty is at large," an effeminate electronic voice replied. "Please leave your message after the beep."
Tak grumbled angrily as the machine gave off a high-pitched beeping sound, then repeated what she said word-for-word (but without the previous gusto). Then she dragged Dib's body out of the pile of ceramic shards and out the automatic door.
