The pilot begins with the Plutonians set to go to warp speed on Oglethorpe's orders, for no other reason except his wanting to "tear ass" across the galaxy. While warping through space Oglethorpe sees someone flip him off, then the scene cuts to the Mooninites' ship where Ignignokt is indeed giving the Plutonians the finger. Oglethorpe orders Emory to stop the ship despite the rate of speed, and he does sending the Plutonians flying into space.
