"You have reached Count Dooku. I regret that I am unavailable to answer your hail. Kindly leave a message, and I shall respond at the earliest opportunity."

[The Count spreads his hands outward, a gesture of offering. Life is your restaurant Duo and he's your maitre'd: just tell him what it is you want, you've never had a friend like Count D.]
You have already received reconnaissance photos from my courier. They should assist in your planning. But if you require further assets, they can be arranged. You need only name them... And ensure they cannot be traced to the organization if you are compromised.
They're helpful. [Duo agrees. He's pretty sure he's had better friends than Count D, and they were the heirs to resource satellites, but hey- taking advantage of a little twisted political influence while double-dealing behind it never hurt.]
[Probably.] But I'm thinking something more like ...manpower. Y'see, I can get in on my own just fine, probably. But having someone who can ensure that whatever... goods I get make it safely out of the compound, you know, just in case- never hurts to have a friend.
Preferably, someone as familiar with the technologies involved in space travel as you and I are. Someone who really values what we're going after. Think you could recommend someone like that to me?
[Dooku thinks a moment, his cold, mechanical mind sifting through names and histories and qualifications. Then that half-smile pokes through his beard once more.]
I think I might, yes. But they will need to be tested first, to ensure they are truly suitable. You will be kept informed.
Oh yeah? [Duo turns to give the Count a raised eyebrow, piqued interest. His grin never leaves him, making it hard to tell how he actually feels about anything, but curiosity shines in his eyes.] ...Testing's fine. I don't got time to be babysitting a newbie, y'hear?
If I'm doing a serious run on this government, you don't gotta talk to me about compromise. I know how it goes. Just make sure they do, too.
