Ship's Log, Stardate 11801.07, Tio Ayidee recording.  Our incarceration continues and out options have gotten no better.  We are working now on ways to get around the Orderlies, which is far easier said than done.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Resume Mission>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Earhart_XO_Price says:
::In the Common Room hoping to discuss plans for escape::  OPS Cash: Don't worry, we'll find you kids.  We won't leave them here.

OPS_Nash says:
::with the others::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::In common room, looking about for any signs of weakness from the Orderlies.::

Earhart_OPS_Cash says:
XO: Thank you, Sir.  Hearing that helps.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Price/ Cash: Yes, we are getting out of here together.  The Federation needs to know about this set up, just to keep travelers aware if nothing else.  But we are not leaving any behind.

Earhart_XO_Price says:
CO: We haven't been able to figure out the orderlies’ power source.  I've never seen a recharging station or seen one of them plugged into an outlet.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Shakes head.::  Price: They wouldn't let us see that, it gives them more of  a sense of invincibility.

Earhart_XO_Price says:
OPS/OPS Cash: Captain Ayidee was right.  You two are our best hope of figuring the orderlies out.

OPS_Nash says:
::looks to OPS Cash::  OPS Cash:  No pressure.  ::smiles::

Earhart_OPS_Cash says:
All: I'd give anything to be able to closely examine one of them.
OPS: It's so nice to be needed.  ::Returns the smile::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
All: What about that?  If someone showed signs of being useful, handy let us say, would they give "more responsibility"?  Maybe even giving access to systems more key than the sporks?

Earhart_XO_Price says:
CO: It seems to me the ones that are useful, like engineers, are targeted for removal more often than not.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Price: So how do we show said skills?

Earhart_OPS_Cash says:
All: I guess the Rabidus are afraid they'll figure a way out of here first.

Earhart_XO_Price says:
CO: Your TAC officer is still in time-out?  We could use him with us.  I don't get it.  He's got some luck.  Anybody else pulled the stuff he pulled, and they'd be out of here, just like your counselor.  It seems he can do no wrong.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Price: I think they are using this area as a kind of staging area, processing.  Technical ability gets you sent to one area, one market.  Combat ability likely gets you sent elsewhere.  Not sure if I want to know what is preferred or what happens if no "talent" is shown.
All: What can we do to show some engineering skills?

ACTION: An orderly approaches the group gathered in the Common Room.

Earhart_XO_Price says:
<Automated Orderly>: Patient Five one two three six nine, Patient Seven two three one six nine, Patient Seven six five one five two Patient Five four five eight four five and Patient Four six nine three two eight you are ordered to report to the Conference Room immediately..

Earhart_XO_Price says:
OPS Cash: That included you and I.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Orderly: Very well.  Will there be donuts and cocoa?  ::Stands up and heads to the conference room.::

Earhart_XO_Price says:
<Automated Orderly>: CO: Move it!

OPS_Nash says:
::looks to the Orderly then to the CO as she stands up::

Earhart_XO_Price says:
::Heads to the Conference Room with OPS Cash::

OPS_Nash says:
::she follows everyone to the Conference Room::

Earhart_XO_Price says:
::Enters the Conference Room next door::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Enters the Conference Room and looks about.:  All: Just as well, guessing they don't do donuts well.

ACTION: The CTO is present in the Conference Room sitting quietly in a chair.

OPS_Nash says:
::she sits down in a chair::

Nurse_Ratched says:
::Enters the Conference Room and stands at the head of the room.  ALL: Take a seat quickly.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Takes a seat.::

Nurse_Ratched says:
All: I hear you have questions about your blonde haired friend.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Ratched: We have a lot of questions about a lot of things, but yes, you have that set right.

Nurse_Ratched says:
All: If you must know, your friend has had his trial.  He was found guilty.  He's being processed.  And that's all I intend on saying about the subject.
All: You have been discussed.  This group has a habit of causing trouble.

OPS_Nash says:
::she begins to think about her family::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Ratched: We have a different legal system background and a far different view on the value of life.

Nurse_Ratched says:
All: It has been decided that this group, as you are new to Pleasant View, will attend tomorrow night's event to learn more of our ways.  However, you must promise to be on your best behavior.  ::She glances at the CTO::

OPS_Nash says:
::she lets a stray tear fall and rundown her cheek.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Ratched: We will comply if it will give us some answers.

Nurse_Ratched says:
CO: It will... oh, it will.

Earhart_OPS_Cash says:
Ratched: What's tomorrow night's event?

Nurse_Ratched says:
ALL: Why, The circus, of course!
