Mission: Naming Conventions
Location: Various
Timeline: Current

ON:

{USS Albion, Bridge}

#SNIP#
Townsend::Watches them enter the room:: "Man, This ship might really [EDITED] me off"
#SNIP#

Genno: ::chuckles:: "Mr. Townsend, you better get used to that around here."

Andrews: ::enters from the turbolift::

Florian: "Commander, I think you might find this rather interesting..."

Andrews: "Oh?"

Florian: "Yes, sir." ::a picture of Brad James appears on the main viewer:: "It turns out that Mr. James isn't quite the marketing whiz we were led to believe. Well, let me clarify--he once was, but he hasn't had a hit drug name in over 10 years. In fact, all of his recent names have been duds--Udyed, Slideffekze, and bucketekick."

Andrews: ::remembering 'Shitehead' for the new Hydra Gamma compound::

Florian: "And then there's last year's debacle--he tagged one with an unpronounceable Romulan word... for a drug exclusive to Klingon physiology!"

Andrews: "It seems our 'marketing genius' has lost his golden touch."


{Hydra Gamma II, open field}

Janeway and Nabarati: ::having a blast demonstrating all their weapons for the Hydra Gammatian recruits::

Janeway: "Now it's time for our shipboard phaser demonstration!" ::motions to the Albion's forward phaser array behind them that they previously beamed down::

Nabarati: ::counting the recruits:: "I thought there were 20."

Janeway: "There are, what's the problem?"

Nabarati: "Then why am I getting 22?"

Janeway: "Probably because our demonstrations have been so amazing! Let's go out with a bang..." ::doesn't notice the two Klingons in Hydra Gammatian disguises::


{Shuttle Craft}

The shuttle starts a decent toward tot he planet with too steep an entry angle...

Voomy: ::realizes he doesn't know how to pilot the shuttle:: "Uh Ohhhhhhhhhh."

OFF:
