Mission: Consult the Anomaly
Location: USS Albion
Timeline: Current

ON:

{USS Albion, Bridge}

Sprague: ::finishes speech to the crew::

Rubbletree: "That was great, Dick! Fantastic job!"

Sprague: "I owe it all to you... you wrote it, including all of the great jokes!"

Rubbletree: "I know."

Sprague: "See you in an hour for the next speech?"

Rubbletree: "You've got it."

Sprague: ::starts for his Ready Room::

Rubbletree: ::exits Bridge::

{USS Albion, Corridor}

Rubbletree: "Computer Arch, Rubbletree Sierra Tango Bravo."

Computer Arch: ::appears::

Rubbletree: ::exits holodeck::

{USS Albion, Corridor}

Random crewmember: "Good morning, Mr. Rubbletree."

Rubbletree: ::nods and continues on his way::

{USS Albion, VIP Quarters}

Rubbletree:: enters:: "Computer Arch, Rubbletree Bravo Uniform India."

Rubbletree: ::exits holodeck::

{USS Albion, Corridor}

Rubbletree: ::enters a deserted corridor:: "An empty ship... just as I had planned... excellent!"

OFF:

It seems Rubbletree has somehow tricked the entire crew: The crew is unaware that they're in the holodeck, and Sprague is unaware that he's in a holodeck in the holodeck.
