- That's ensign Roz to you Mister.

- Oh? Gotta a l'il attitude there don'tcha.

- Quit that baby talk - I know this is a private line but I want respect - even in private!

- Ok, Ok, - You're still gonna come across tho' - right?

- "Come across"? What are you, Archaic Man now?

- Save it for the next world, buddy.

- OK OK! Did - You - Get - the Tickets?

- Noo... WAY!

- AND?

- So - the press wire is burning up - signal everywhere - Ottis gets up to conference... Starts saying how she's been framed because of her views, whining on - then 'oh my!' a little nose bleed on the nosebag. Cuts off the conferance, indisposed.

- Yeh...?

- Five minutes later, Dead. Haemorrhage, brain haemorrhage

- That is too weird...

- no response -

- Honey? -
