You think over what Bill has just told you about
Omicron.  It sounds so wild that it's hard to believe.
"If Omicron is so powerful and dangerous," you
say, "how are we going to stop them?"
   "I wish I knew," Bill replies.  "Right new we need
informaion-how and when they intend to
launch their takeover.  That's what I was hoping to 
discover with my electronics.  Now that I'm out of
action, I'm afraid it's up to you.  This should help."
As he speaks he unrolls a small detailed map of the
island.
   You study the map carefully, trying to ignore the
warning: DANGER GRADE Z.  You know about the Danger
Grade Z.  It means that there is nowhere on the
planet more perilous than Bounty Island.
   Whatever you're going to do, you can't leave
Bill on the boat.  Omicron is bound to find it.  Your
eyes scan the map.  There's no beach on this part of 
the island, only cliffs, but there is a water-level cave
where Bill should be safe.
   Following Bill's careful instructions, you manage
to inflate the Starbuck's lifeboat, ease Bill into it,
and find the cave.
   "You'll have to return to the Starbuck," he says
as you get him settled in the cave.  "You'll need
whatever electronic equipment hasn't been destroyed."
   A short while later you're back on board the
Starbuck.  You go below deck to see what you can
save and load onto the inflatable boat.  Unfortunately
things don't turn out the way you plan.
