    Only in Rimmer’s logic :)

    I think it was something like “If Lister hadn’t been imprisoned in stasis for smuggling a cat on board, he would have been there to help me mend the drive plate, so I wouldn’t have made the mistake which caused the failure, which killed all the crew”.

      Lister smuggled the cat that caused the malfunction on to the ship in the first place unless I’m remembering that wrong, but I haven’t seen Red Dwarf in about 2 decades.
