(B'Elanna Torres is trying The Doctor's program)
'Chapter 5: Out of the Frying Pan', in which our protagonist must confront abusive colleagues. [A female crewman walks into sickbay]
I'm here for my physical?
Why don't you have a seat? Over here. [Lieutenant Marseille comes in]
Doctor! You'd better get down to engineering! [B'Elanna Torres smiles at his mustache, but straightens her face]
What's wrong?
A plasma conduit just exploded. At least 10 people are hurt. [B'Elanna Torres tried to leave sickbay, but she cannot leave because she is a hologram] Hey, genius! Forgetting something? [B'Elanna looks dumbfounded] Your mobile emitter?!
Oh, right! [Looks around sickbay] I don't see it. [Marseille points to a giant backpack behind her] THAT'S my mobile emitter? [Marseille picks up the extremely heavy backpack and puts it on her] Ugh, this thing must weigh 50 kilos!
You should be glad we let you out of your cage at all--now get going! [Scene changes to B'Elanna entering engineering, a character that looks like B'Elanna--named Torry--is observing the work of a crewman]
[to the working crewman] I'm impressed.
Really?
Absolutely! I haven't seen a dilithium matrix this far out of alignment since I served aboard a Ferengi garbage scowl. [Pushes crewman out of the way] I'll fix it, myself.
[To Torry] Hey, excuse me!
How many times have I told you?! Engineering is off-limits to holograms!
Maybe you should waive that restriction during emergencies. [Torry looks confused] A plasma conduit exploded?
Does it look like anyone here is covered with plasma burns?
Lieutenant Paris--uhh--Marseille told me there was an accident.
Cognitive subroutines are malfunctioning again. I'm surprised a matrix as primitive as yours can function at all.
Maybe you should be nicer to your shipmates, you never know when you might need their help.
[Pushes B'Elanna] Get one thing straight: you're not my shipmate. You're a tool--like this hyperspanner! And tools can be replaced! [Continues pushing B'Elanna ] So why don't you go back to sickbay before I start doing a little reprogramming?! [B'Elanna re-enters sickbay to find that the lights are off]
Computer, lights. [Discovers Marseille making out with the female crewman from the beginning on the surgical bed. The two get up and looked surprised at an unamused B'Elanna]
Didn't I tell you to go to engineering?
Oh, I get it. Interesting plot twist. You get me out of sickbay so you're free to give my patient a tonsillectomy.
[Walking towards B'Elanna] If you even think about mentioning this to my wife, I will purge your memory buffer. We understand each other? [Another female crewman walks into sickbay]
I'm here for my physical? [B'Elanna looks at a smiling Marseille]
