Previously on the USS Scorpius:

Host Gerry says:
The ships in Task Force Zulu under the Scorpius have given chase to K'Rass, his fleet of old K'Tinga-class ships, and the subspace planet-killing weapon.

Host Gerry says:
The commanders of all the ships of the fleet have beamed back to the Scorpius to take care of last-minute things...and the possibility that they may not return from this mission.

Host Gerry says:
The atmosphere on the Scorpius is somewhat subdued, but strained by the tension in the background of the coming fight...

Host CO_VanSickle says:
MO: Just a slight twinge in my right foot, but everything's OK so far.

CMO: I will do my best.

TO_Lane says:

TO_Lane says:
SO: Agreed, a good practical joke will do just that, but there are times that they are strictly trouble.

OPS-Anari says:
<Jake>:: Looks back to his mistress and the child and the others in the room ::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
OPS: Rhythm is important for Jeni to be relaxed

Host CO_VanSickle says:

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Jeni, you just let us know if we aren’t doing this right.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
MO: That cat just doesn't know what he's doing sometimes.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
