Douglas Adams Harmless
Mostly Harmless by Douglas Adams focuses on the chaos and potential destruction of the Galaxy. Arthur Dent travels from planet to planet in order to find a new life. Ford Prefect fights the corporate regime. Tricia McMillian has an alien encounter. All three lives help decide the fate of the Galaxy.
In chapter one, the history of the Galaxy is a confusing mess. People try to exceed the speed of light, but it is impossible to do. Only bad news travels faster.

Tricia mentally prepares to be tough with Gail. Gail should not be unhappy with her interview because Tricia gives her free publicity.
