The next morning, the crew prepares to leave for the International Space Station, and the chief butler tells them that they'll have to make the final decision about whether they're going to go ahead with the mission or not. They're all excited, but the chief doesn't want to make a big deal out of it. Instead, he wants to make sure that the backup crew is ready to go when the crew leaves for the moon. The chief asks if they've heard about the new astronauts, and they all agree that it's a good idea. They also agree that if they go ahead and do the mission, it will be eight years before they get to go back to the moon, which is why they need a backup crew. The butler then asks if he's in love with the new woman, and he says he isn't. He says that she's not interested in becoming an astronaut because she hasn't had men interested in her, but because she wants to do something she loves. He's sure he'll make the right choice, and that's all he can say.
