Deep Space Disaster
“There’s a problem.”
“I know, I checked the stabilizer pods yesterday and they were running a little hot. I’ll look into it.”
“No, I mean a real problem.”
“Don’t tell me we’re leaking something?”
“No, Jeffrey, we’re out of milk.”
“Scheisse!”
“I didn’t drink any, I swear!”
“Where’s Lars?”
“I haven’t seen him since launch.”
“Find him.”
…
“Lars!”
“Oh, hey Ollie, you startled me. What’s up?”
“We’re entering the Oreo Nebula and somebody drank all the milk, that’s what’s up.”
“Oh. Wow. I mean, hmm. That sucks. Did you check with Jeffrey?”
“Of course I checked with Jeffrey, he’s only the bloody captain.”
“So you think I drank it.”
“I know you drank it.”
“Um. Okay, fine, you got me. I drank it.”
“Did you not see the flight plan? What do we ALWAYS do when we pass through here?”
“We have a cookie party, but…”
“And you thought this time would be any different from usual?”
“I didn’t realize—! I thought we had more.”
“Only that evaporated crap.”
“I’m sorry!”
“I’m taking you to the brig now.”
