The Sacrifice turns and faces the Gynophage. She then unzips the front of her catsuit and steps out of it nude. She steps forward toward the Gynophage.
As soon as the Sacrifice is within tentacle range two “grabber” tentacles seize her and yank her towards the Gynophage. The Sacrifice GASPS as this happens.
Fred focuses intently on his electronics, fiddling with knobs, peering at screens, etc. The Sacrifice MOANS.

INT. THE MAIN WAREHOUSE SPACE – NIGHT
Terrorists #3 – #5 return.
Fred moves to a position well outside of of tentacle range of the Gynophage and unslings his backpack, He unpacks a variety of complex-looking electronic equipment, with which he proceeds to do various operations stuff.
The Sacrifice steps to just outside tentacle range.
The four terrorists form a militarily-precise line, standing shoulder to shoulder. The Sacrifice looks at the line of terrorists and nods.
The terrorists make a crisp weapons salute directed at the Sacrifice, then they disburse to four compass points around the Gynophage and wait, facing out in kneeling position, their weapons at ready position.

Panel 1: View down the deck. A bunch of men, sailors and science guys, are lined up a few feet from the rail, leaving a path between themselves and the rail for Eliza to walk along. Eliza is emerging up onto deck from a gangway to below decks, just coming into view in the panel.
Panel 2: Same view as in Panel 1, Eliza walking down the deck toward the viewer of the panel, past the lined-up men, still a bit distant from the P.O.V. of the viewer.
Panel 3: Eliza, a bit closer to thew viewer of the Panel, in the act of lifting off her cotton shirt (which, at the discretion of the artist, can read GNOSIS COLLEGE), exposing her breasts. This elicits a reaction of mounting excitement from the men lined up. The lifting-off of Eliza’s shirt shows that she wasn’t wearing any bra.
SFX – EXCITEMENT AMONG THE CREW (1): …murmuring…
Translation (1): …бормотание…
Panel 4: Eliza, now quite close to the viewer of the panel, in the act of whipping off her skirt, which reveals that she wasn’t wearing any panties either. The men around her are reacting quite excited by now.
SFX – MORE MALE VOCAL EXCITEMENT (2): OH YEAH OH YEAH BABY OH AWESOME OH YEAH!

After a final such report, Terrorist #2 speaks briefly in the same unknown language into his radio.
Fred enters the main warehouse space, escorting the SACRIFICE. The Sacrifice is an attractive young woman who wears a catsuit-like garment with a zipper down its front.
