WHO: Prince Gorak
WHERE: Suid Sidal...

Gorak is in the shower getting himself clean of the slimy and smelly water that the podquids call home. Ever since the ambassador mentioned that they don't use restrooms the prince is somewhat nauseated when he considers what he fell into. He thinks to himself that he doesn't much care if the Suid Sidal's entire contingent of fully armed marines were heading towards him at this very moment. He is taking a bath and getting clean clothes.

Just then the automated alarms started blaring over the ship's PA speakers, "Intruder Alert! Intruder Alert! The ship has been compromised at multiple locations.”

Suddenly the shower water gets COLD and Gorak jumps back surprised and annoyed.

Gorak: (thinking to himself) "What the Helg?! That’s a pretty idiotic intruder contingency that moron Pupuhed has programmed. We wouldn’t want any intruders taking hot baths I suppose. Wonder what other innane contingencies that fool has set up?”

Then his face drops and he says out loud, “Oh no.”

The prince immediately uses the shower stall’s intercom to call the bridge.

Gorak: “Science officer, I hear the alarms and can surmise that's the GREASERS. But tell me, what is the status of the marines?”

Sci Off: “I was just about to contact you, sir! I fear that the intruder alarm has freed all their weapons! The captain must have previously programmed that on his own. I never even knew about it.”

Gorak: “Damn. If he has given them this kind of leeway he must really trust them. It is as I feared. What are they doing?”

Sci Off: (Looks at his shipwide monitors) “They appear to be donning their full environmental powered armor, gathering all their guns and armaments, and forming battle formations. Looks like a most unfortunate situation, my lord! What shall we do?”

Gorak: “We wait for me to finish this cold bath.”
