Perhaps Priest had been using Hal as a pawn against Malvolio?
Nope. Priest was ultimately going to replace the Guardians, whom Denny and I both thought were a little 1960’s, as Hal’s “big brother.” Priest was legit. Andy did not like Priest. Andy had Priest killed. Thanks Andy. I guess being marooned on an asteroid 3000 light years from Earth wasn’t far enough out of the story!!!!!!
