The Scorpion on Life

GL:            I wonder if we have something like that. You know, a weapon that can shoot down satellites.

Scorpion: Yeah, we got one of those. If we have the missile defense shield, we got one of those too.

GL:          But the Missile Defense Shield doesn't work. It failed all of those tests.

Scorpion: It will work when it needs to work.

GL:            What do you mean? It might fail all the tests, but it will just "work" when it needs to?

Scorpion: Yeah.

GL:            How is that going to work?

Scorpion: Divine Providence.
