USS Scorpius - NCC 50666 - 10502.12

"Rock and a Hard Place"

Episode 2:  "Rotten in the state of Denmark..."

Previously on the USS Scorpius:

The USS Scorpius had been charged with the restocking of a Medical Research Facility after a bout of the Rigosian Blight that resulted in a few casualties and fatalities, including the former Ambassador to the Federation.

K’Valt, a generally likable and kind man, had been chosen as the new ambassador, and was eager to take over his new assignment.

As the Scorpius pulled into view and began preparing to re-supply the base, the ambassador prepared to beam down and assume his position...Except for one thing...

Fifteen minutes ago, the Ambassador was found dead in his quarters, the door locked from the inside, and not an apparent mark on him.

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

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::on the bridge fuming yet again::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Pacing back and forth on the bridge, quite upset with the Ambassadors death, and the lack of evidence showing who is responsible or how he died::

CIV_Serok says:
:: heads to sickbay to observe the autopsy.

Adm-Alexander says:
::wonders if these people know what they are doing as she makes copious notes on her padd::

FCO_Heath says:
::maintains orbit::

OPS_Raash says:
::enters the bridge feeling a bit woozy from the meds::

CTO_Horn says:
::Searching around the ambassador’s room::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: This isn't good.  Not only do we lose an Ambassador in our care ::lowers his voice to a whisper:: But we have a nosy Admiral taking notes of everything we do.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
XO:  I want answers and I want them now, Commander.

CIV_Serok says:
:: enters sickbay and looks around. ::

Adm-Alexander says:
::tries to keep from smiling as folks forget she is half Vulcan and can hear a pin drop 30 decks below::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
*CTO* Answers, Mr. Horn.  We need them now.  Have you found anything?

FCO_Heath says:
::double checks systems to make sure that the quarantine markers are still functioning::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
XO:  Any word from our medical teams on the Station?

Jenise says:
::waddles into the morgue to check on the autopsy::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: not as of yet, Ma'am.

OPS_Raash says:
::takes her station::

CIV_Serok says:
:: walks towards where she knows the morgue is ::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
OPS:  How are you feeling, Lt?

CTO_Horn says:
::Taps his com badge:: *XO*: I have sealed of the room to everyone but myself, you and the Captain. I am searching it now.

Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  Captain, if you will excuse me, I will wonder down to the Ambassador's room and take a look around.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
*CTO* I will join you there shortly.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::nods:: Admiral:  Of course, Admiral.  XO:  Escort the Admiral to the crime scene ...

OPS_Raash says:
CO: Better Ma'am, thank you.

Adm-Alexander says:
::turns to look at the XO::

Jenise says:
::grabs a tricorder and starts a scan of the body::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: I was just going to head there myself, Ma'am.  ADM: Follow me please.

Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  Right behind you XO.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
OPS:  Good.  FCO:  Status of the quarantine?

FCO_Heath says:
CO: Containment protocols are being maintained by Scorpius personnel,  Quarantine markers are still in place

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
ADM: I will show you to the Ambassador's quarters, then I have to make a separate trip to the morgue.  If I know my wife the way I think that I do, she will be there trying to assist.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
FCO:  Well at least that part of the mission is going right ... ::sighs::

CIV_Serok says:
:: waits outside for Jenise to appear ::

Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  The body has been moved XO?

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
ADM: The body is in the ships morgue, pending autopsy.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
OPS:  Prepare a message to Starfleet, Lt.  Apprise them of our current situation and that we will need yet another Ambassador ...

Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  Then that is where I want to go.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Wonders why the ADM is so intent on seeing a dead body::

OPS_Raash says:
CO: Aye Ma'am.

CIV_Serok says:
:: sticks her head in the morgue :: Jenise:  Excuse me, might I be of assistance?

Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  Because it is important for the investigation #1.  Are there any other questions? ::smiling at him::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::sits and waits for more information before making her next move::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
ADM: With all due respect, Admiral, please don't enter my mind without an expressed, engraved invitation.

Jenise says:
::looks up:: CIV: Come on in Captain. ::sneezes:: I could use all the help I can get.

OPS_Raash says:
::prepares the message for Star Fleet::

Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  Sir, I did not... the expression on your face stated what you were thinking loud and clear.  Do I make MYSELF clear XO? ::raising her eyebrows, as her voice softens::

CIV_Serok says:
:: nods and enters ::  Jenise:  What can I help you with?

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
ADM: I offer my apologies, Sir.  I just have a thing against people probing my thoughts, and I allowed that to cloud my judgment.

Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  If you can misjudge me XO, then I can only imagine what you will do with this investigation.  ::begins to make more notes::

FCO_Heath says:
::adjusts orbit::

Jenise says:
CIV: Well, what can you tell me about this Ambassador.  I was called in to do the autopsy from my leave.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
ADM: Permission to speak freely?

Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  You better believe XO, as I do the same.

OPS_Raash says:
FCO: Looks like life has been interesting while I was in sickbay.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
ADM: Once again, with all due respect, how I judge you and how I perform in my duties are two entirely different things.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
ADM: I allowed one slip up with you, and that will never happen again.

Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  Would you care to explain the difference and I cannot see any... if you jump to a conclusion in one, what keeps you from jumping to a conclusion on the other>?

FCO_Heath says:
OPS: It certainly has been busy.  First a mole and now a dead Ambassador

Adm-Alexander says:
::watches as the TL doors open::  XO:  Are we on the ambassador's deck or sickbay?

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::is getting impatient:: *CIV*:  Bridge to Capt Serok.  What is happening?

OPS_Raash says:
FCO: A mole?  Hmm, sounds like somebody's pet got loose.  At least a mole on board had better not be housekeeping's fault.

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  According to records, he was well liked and kind.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
ADM: I am aware of your telepathic abilities.  Since my thoughts were primarily on this investigation, I allowed my thoughts about you to roam.

OPS_Raash says:
::sends the message to Star Fleet::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
ADM: We are by sickbay.  Please follow me.

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  He appeared over excited and impulsive to me.

Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  So now you are saying XO that you cannot focus on the task at hand?  ::makes another note in her padd::

FCO_Heath says:
::chuckles:: OPS: No, not housekeeping at all

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
ADM: Not at all, Sir.  The task at hand is this investigation, which my thoughts were on.  However, your telepathic abilities are not the task at hand, which I gave only minimal thought to.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::overhears the OPS and FCO chatting but doesn't say anything .. likes her crew to interact::

Jenise says:
CIV: I found a puncture wound about three days old.  That tells me that I should have...::sneezes:: have found something in the tox screen. ::shakes her head::

OPS_Raash says:
CO: Message is away Ma'am.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Arrives at the morgue:: ADM: Here we are.  After you, Admiral. ::Stands aside so the Admiral can enter first::

Adm-Alexander says:
::enters then waits for the XO to perform his duties::  XO:  Thank you.

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  And what was it that caused his demise?

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Sees his wife is here, which he suspected all along:: Jenise: Have you found anything?

Jenise says:
CIV: He died of a brain aneurism.  My gut tells me that puncture wound may have something to do with it but the tox screen is perfect. ::sneezes::  Way to perfect.

Jenise says:
XO: Answers that I don't like.  That's what I've found. ::sneezes::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
OPS:  Thank you, Lt.  Let me know as soon as you hear anything.

OPS_Raash says:
CO: Aye Ma'am.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Jenise: And what were  those answers that you don't like?

OPS_Raash says:
FCO: Looks like I missed an adventure.

CTO_Horn says:
*Jenise*: Horn to Garta N'mbarri.

Adm-Alexander says:
::continues to make notes as the XO speaks to his wife on the causes of the Ambassador's death::

Jenise says:
XO: His tox screen is a bit too perfect considering the puncture wound I found. ::continues with the tests as she talks::

FCO_Heath says:
OPS: I think many of us would have preferred to miss it, rather than find than one of our own was working against us

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Jenise: Too perfect?  

Jenise says:
*CTO* How can I help you Commander?

Adm-Alexander says:
*CO*: I think we have a problem Captain.

CTO_Horn says:
*Jenise*: Just checking to see if you found anything with the Autopsy.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
*Alexander*:  In what way, Admiral?

Jenise says:
XO: For any species, there is a base line average.  Levels usually fluctuate a bit. ::sneezes::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Jenise: And with the Ambassador?

Adm-Alexander says:
*CO*:  I have the distinct impression that perhaps some tests have been manipulated.

Jenise says:
*CTO* Come on down and join the party.  At least I won't have to repeat myself.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::is puzzled:: *Alexander*:  I'm on my way down, Admiral.

Jenise says:
::sneezes again::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Turns and looks at the Admiral:: ADM: To what do you base such an impression?

Adm-Alexander says:
*CO*:  Good idea Captain.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
FCO:  You have the bridge.  I'll be in sickbay if I'm needed.  ::turns and heads for the TL::

Jenise says:
Self: What in the prophets is that? ::moves to the small console::

CTO_Horn says:
*Jenise* : I would love to but I can’t leave the scene right now.

FCO_Heath says:
CO: Aye ma'am

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::enters the TL and orders it to Sickbay::

CIV_Serok says:
:: lifts her eyebrow ::

FCO_Heath says:
::whispers:: OPS:  Here we go again 

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::continues to look at the Admiral, not noticing his wife has moved away from him::

Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  If the tests are not as she expected, and she stated the only wound she could find was the stab wound, what would you surmise until proven XO?

Jenise says:
CIV/XO: What do you know about Einsteinium?

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
ADM: well, since I am not in the medical field, I can't give you a good answer.  However, my instinct would tell me that the cause has yet to be found, and to continue running tests.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::exits the TL and makes her way to sickbay::

Adm-Alexander says:
XO:  Excellent idea #1! ::makes another entry into her padd::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
ADM: However, I wouldn't automatically jump to the conclusion that the tests have been manipulated

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::enters sickbay::

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  Einsteinium, symbol is Es......

Jenise says:
::turns around with both hands on her extremely pregnant belly::  All: How about you all either get out of the morgue or just shut up unless you are talking to me.   ::turns back around to her console::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Turns at the sound of the opening door, and sees the CO enter:: CO: Welcome.

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  Atomic number is 99, atomic weight is [252]

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::looks at  Jenise:: Jenise:  You have a problem, Doctor?

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Either she found something, or her pregnancy is really getting to her.  I suspect a bit of both.

Jenise says:
CO: Yes Ma'am, I have a Commander and an Admiral arguing like children and ::sneezes:: screwing with my concentration.  I have been on leave for a reason. ::pats her stomach::

CTO_Horn says:
*Jenise*: I know nothing about it, Fill me in please. You have my undivided attention.

Jenise says:
::sighs:: CO: Yes, I found something.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
Jenise:  What?

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  From the group actinide, it is classified as metallic and is solid at 298 K.

Jenise says:
CIV: Please go on with what you know.  I don't know why it was in his heart along with pieces of organic matter that I'm trying to identify.

Adm-Alexander says:
::closes her eyes, then opens them again::  CO:  Captain, I am sensing the people on the planet.  They are glad we are here and can help them.  What has been done for them at this point?

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Listens to the CIV and his wife intently::

Jenise says:
::runs a further test on the organic matter::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::thinks to himself that perhaps the Admiral should go to the planet and investigate for herself::

FCO_Heath says:
::continues to monitor their orbit::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::looks over to the Admiral:: Alexander:  We have medical teams working on the blight issue, Admiral.  We will help the planet when we are in a position to do so.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: May I have a word with you, in private?

Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  Captain, if you will excuse me, I need to make a report.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::nods to the Admiral as she leaves::

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  It is an isotope.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
XO:  Certainly, Commander.  ::nods to the Admiral as she leaves::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Leads the CO into a private office::

Jenise says:
CIV: How would that get into his heart?

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::follows the XO:: XO:  Now what is going on, Commander?

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: It's the Admiral, Ma'am.  There is something odd that I can't quite put my finger on.

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  I would have to consult the computer for a more extensive explanation  I do apologize for my neglect at not having all the information.

CTO_Horn says:
*Jenise*: How did it get into his system?

Jenise says:
::pulls up information on the Blight and compares it to what she found in the autopsy.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::looks at him:: XO:  Explain.  I have known the Admiral a long time, Commander.

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise, I do not know, it liquefies at 860 C.

Jenise says:
CIV: I don't think either of us knew it would be here Captain.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Far be it for me to question the integrity of an Admiral, but there were times that I got the distinct impression that she wasn't all that concerned with what is going on in the morgue.

Jenise says:
*CTO* I found a puncture wound.  It may have entered there.

Jenise says:
::moves back to the body and scans the puncture wound again carefully::

CTO_Horn says:
*Jenise*: A puncture wound?

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
XO:  I wouldn't read too much into it, Commander.  Obviously the Admiral is here for some reason ...

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: She called you to the morgue under the pretense that the tests may have been manipulated, but did she even speak of that once you arrived?

CIV_Serok says:
:: goes to a console ::

CTO_Horn says:
*Jenise*: Can you tell me the angle of the wound?

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
XO:  No, she didn't.  I'll talk to her later.  Stay here and get the report from Jenise.  I'm heading up to the VIP quarters to see what Cmdr Horn has found.

Jenise says:
*CTO* Like a small needle or maybe...::looks at the wound carefully:: maybe a dart?  It goes straight into the subclavian artery.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Very good, Ma'am.  I will let you know the minute that anything is found.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
XO:  Thank you, Commander.  ::turns and leaves sickbay:: *CTO*:  Horn to Cmdr Horn.

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  Named after Albert Einstein, einsteinium is a highly radioactive metal. It was discovered in the radioactive fallout of an Earth standard 1952 atomic bomb test. It has never been found naturally and less than a gram is produced each year. Its chemistry and appearance are not known with any certainty but should be similar to the other actinides.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Re-enters the morgue, and goes back to observing the autopsy::

CTO_Horn says:
*CO*: Horn here Captain. I was about to call you and the XO.

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  Einsteinium is too rare to have any commercial or industrial application. The most stable isotope of einsteinium has a half-life of 1.3 years.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
*CTO*:  I'm on my way up there now.  I take it you found something.

FCO_Heath says:
OPS: Anything unusual; on com channels?

CTO_Horn says:
*CO*: I have a working theory that I believe is what happened.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Jenise/CIV: Have you found anything solid yet?

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  No known benefits for life processes in plants and animals.  Einsteinium has no biological use.  It is highly radioactive.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::enters the TL:: *CTO*:  I should be there in a few minutes.  Please enlighten me.

Jenise says:
CIV: Radioactive...::scans the body again for traces of radiation::

CTO_Horn says:
*CO*: After you get here.

OPS_Raash says:
FCO: Nothing strange about the COM's at all.

Jenise says:
XO: Still looking.

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  It is obtained by particle bombardment of plutonium.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Jenise: I will remain here, but I will take a seat in the corner, to remain out of your way.  ::goes and sits down::

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  That is all I have been able to find on it.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::feels the lift stop and she exits and heads towards the VIP quarters .. arrives and enters::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  What have you found, Commander.

FCO_Heath says:
OPS:  Glad to hear that

CTO_Horn says:
CO: I believe I have figured out how the Ambassador was killed

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  Go on ...

CTO_Horn says:
CO: He had just answered his door...........

Jenise says:
::looks at her husband and smiles::  XO: I'm sorry I snapped, but it's hard enough to concentrate without adults arguing.  You two reminded me of Smurf and DeeDee when she stole a pancake from his plate this morning.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: He had turned and started back into the room...........

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::listens::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: When he turned his back the assailant pulled out a needle of some sort..........

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Jenise: I know, Dear.  But, we will save any discussions about that Admiral till later, when we are both off duty.

Jenise says:
::moves back to the console:: Computer: Isolate the organic pieces found within the body.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: He then rushed up behind the Ambassador grabbed him and thrust the needle into his chest.........

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  So you are sure  he was murdered ...

Jenise says:
CIV: I'm finding some slight radioactivity at the puncture wound but more in the brainstem. ::hands the tricorder to the CIV::

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  I believe that with what is said to have to occur for this material to be manufactured, there would have to have been a rather large nuclear reaction,  especially in this quantity.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Absolutely.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  Can you tell how long ago this happened?

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Jenise would have to tell you that.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: I can tell you this, Our perp is very good because that puncture wound was straight in.

CIV_Serok says:
:: takes the tricorder and looks :: Jenise:  I will analyze what you have found against what is known of the compound.  Perhaps we can find a commonality.

Jenise says:
CIV: The only wound I find is that puncture wound.  It is three days old.  Would it take that long for the radioactivity to kill him? ::tries to concentrate but sneezes several times instead::

FCO_Heath says:
::adjusts orbit slightly::

OPS_Raash says:
FCO: You think they will find some answers?

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  I want to know about every person who transported on or off this ship, Commander.  It's likely our attacker is still onboard.  Coordinate with OPS.

FCO_Heath says:
OPS:  I'm sure they will, but I'm not sure it'll be easy

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  The quantity would most likely have something to do with it.  It was either injected or ingested.  Test his stomach for traces of radioactivity.

Jenise says:
::moves the pieces of organic material on the screen::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Whoever did this is familiar with the ships security systems as well

Jenise says:
XO: T'Lok, come take a look at this.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  Which makes it likely that a Starfleet officer or crew member did this ... Go through the records of the replacements we are transporting.  This room is to remain sealed until such time as I order otherwise.

Jenise says:
*CTO* I have something for you Ryan.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: I suggest we go to General quarters until further notice.

CTO_Horn says:
*Jenise*: Go ahead.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Goes over to his wife:: Jenise: What have you found?

Jenise says:
*CTO*/XO/CIV: Those organic pieces I found in the heart.  It is bits of a dart from his subclavian artery.  He was shot with a dart three days ago.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::overhears as she is with the CTO:: *Jenise*:  Three days ago?  You're certain?

Jenise says:
*CTO*/XO/CIV: That dart could have been laced with the Einsteinium.  I'll remove the pieces and check them.

Jenise says:
*CO* I'm sure.  The wound is three days old.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Jenise: Three days ago?  Would it take that long for the Einsteinium to take affect?

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  Then this happened before the Ambassador came onboard ...

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  I'd like to take a look at that as well.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: It’s looking that way now. However......

CTO_Horn says:
CO: I believe the murderer is on this ship.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: He came to make sure the job was finished.

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  I want to know why he did not mention he was attacked or if it was an accident, why was it not mentioned on his record?

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO: I tend to agree with you.  Initiate general quarters, Commander, and do the background checks.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CIV: How deep is that wound?

CIV_Serok says:
XO:  I do not know Commander.

CTO_Horn says:
::Steps out into the corridor and activates a Comm unit::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CIV: Is there any residual radiation emanating from the body?

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::steps into the corridor and stays to ensure the room is sealed as per her orders::

CIV_Serok says:
:: turns her attention back to the screen ::

CIV_Serok says:
XO:  I seem to have found a computer chip.  It appears to have a bio neural interface.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CIV: A chip? Where is it located?

CIV_Serok says:
XO:  It is in a concentration of the Einsteinium at the base of his brainstem.

CIV_Serok says:
XO:  That would explain why he didn't report it.  He perhaps was being controlled.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CIV: He did seem to be overly chipper and happy.

CIV_Serok says:
:: nods :: XO:  That could perhaps be the reason for it.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  I'm heading back down to Sickbay.  You have your orders, Commander.  ::with that she turns and heads back towards sickbay::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CIV: so, that would tie the two together, the fact that the chip is in the Einsteinium?

Jenise says:
CIV: I wish you could ask him that yourself Captain.

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  So do I Commander.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Jenise/CIV: Well, it would appear that we now have something solid to report to the Captain, and the Admiral.

Jenise says:
CIV/XO: I'll get those pieces removed.  Perhaps remove the chip also.  We can proceed from there.

Jenise says:
CIV: I would like a hand during the procedure.  If you need to report to the Captain, I'll ask Sopok to assist.

CIV_Serok says:
Jenise:  I am at your service for the time being.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CIV: If you like, I can report your findings thus far to the Captain, that way you can stay and assist.

CTO_Horn says:
*All Hands*: This is Commander Horn........

CTO_Horn says:
*All Hands*: The Ship is on a security alert level 1.......

CTO_Horn says:
*All Hands*: All crew are in a state of general quarters.........

CTO_Horn says:
*All Hands*: Only authorized personnel are allowed outside of their quarters...........

CTO_Horn says:
*All Hands*: When it is time for shift change only necessary personnel will report for duty and you must check in with the bridge before you leave. That is all.
