Timeline: MD02 - 1500

Anony Mouse - So that Avian pollen is gone but it certain seems to have had permanent effects, hasn't it?

Other Mouse - You aren't kidding. Is this a Starfleet vessel or a love boat?

Anony Mouse - Maybe a brothel?

Other Mouse - Don't tell Red that! What's with her and Security Officers? Did you see her making googly eyes at Jericho or Zim?

Anony Mouse - Isn't Jericho with Capac?

Other Mouse - They do seem cozy too.

Anony Mouse - Seems Helm and Navigation are traveling the stars and planets together.

Other Mouse - Oh, yeah, Young went from dressing prim and proper to full fledged swim suit model. She has the body for it, but to beam off that way?!

Anony Mouse - Has Radars finally given up on Red?

Other Mouse - Seems so. No more slobbering all over her, just Fibel.

Anony Mouse - It makes me want to puke. She's got to be a Stockholm Syndrome victim!

Other Mouse - Speaking of which, whatever happened to Pendragon or T'Pruk?

Anony Mouse - I don't know. I know I've seen them a lot together, but suddenly, they're gone.

Other Mouse - I heard that they put in a request to share quarters!

Anony Mouse - No Way! Tjhose two?! How do they fit?!

Other Mouse - I don't know. I put it down to Avian pollen.

Anony Mouse - Affecting a Vulcan?

Other Mouse - Do you have another logical explanation?

Anony Mouse - Though, in the slobbering department, it seems that Heskin has taken over for Radars over Red.

Other Mouse - Oh, I know! It is so disgusting! May I lick your boots, Captain? I want to get noticed Captain! Pick me! Pick me!

Anony Mouse - Maybe that's how he got his promotion from her. Did her some special favors, if you know what I mean.

Other Mouse - Do you really think Red would stoop to that level?

Anony Mouse - Not likely, but you never know. That pollen and all. Maybe he bottled it. After all, he was the person that found the cure.

Other Mouse - That's an interesting theory. I wonder....

Anony Mouse - Are you kidding? It has to be something like that. After all, she was thick as thieves with Ross and you know she liked having them be twin reds!

Other Mouse - That's quite the point!

Anony Mouse - You know who would know? Our cantankerous laundress. She knows a lot. After all, she would see if any laundry that would not normally come from a place came from a place, if you know what I mean.

Other Mouse - Maybe that's why Red and her have been at each other's throats lately.

Anony Mouse - Makes sense to me.

Other Mouse - I feel a headache coming on. Maybe I should visit sickbay.

Anony Mouse - And see who? Stallworth and Devin seem to be missing every time someone is looking for them.

Other Mouse - Maybe the pollen has them intimately away.

Anony Mouse - Not cured?

Other Mouse - Maybe not! After all, they had to implement it. Maybe things just got too much and they succumbed!

Anony Mouse - I really should look into it. Oh, shoot! Someone's coming. I can't get associated with this tape!

Other Mouse - Keep it Real!
