SCENE STARTS

SCENE:
THE CAPTAIN IS SITTING IN HIS CHAIR WAITING FOR AKEENA TO SHOW UP. THEY ARE WAITING FOR HER TO PROVIDE THE COORDINATES OF HER HOME PLANET SO THAT SHE CAN GET HOME. THE CAPTAIN IS READING THE DAILY LOG FROM HIS STAFF. THE BRIDGE DOOR OPENS UP. AKEENA WALKS THROUGH AND THE REST OF THE CREW STOPS IN THEIR TRACKS AS THEY NOTICE WHAT AKEENA IS WEARING. THIS CAUGHT THE CAPTAINS ATTENTION AND HE TURNS AROUND. AKEENA WAS WEARING THESE BROWN LEATHER BOOTS AND  THESE TIGHT PANTS WITH A SLIT KNOTTED IN A PATTERN ON THE SIDE AND A TIGHT SHIRT THAT IS A BIT HIGH ON HER BELLY. SHE HAS A LEATHER JACKET WITH SOME PATCHES ON IT AND HAS A PIRATES HAT ON HER HEAD. SHE WALKS TOWARDS THE CAPTAIN WITH A SWAY IN HER STEP.

Captain: I see you've found the clothes replicator satisfactory?
Akeena: Yes, it made my outfit just like my old one. I dare say it's maybe better.
Captain: Well it definitely looks tight, I mean right.
Sr. Officer Vine: Does the cat have your tongue Captain?
Sr. Officer Bird: I don't have his tongue?
Sr. Officer Vine: No Bird it's...
Sr. Officer Winchester: Don't tell her, let's see if she gets it.
Captain: Winchester, be nice.
Sr. Officer Winchester: Yes, sir. Teachers' pet.
Sr. Officer Bird: I'm nobodies pet, especially teachers.
Sr. Officer Winchester: This is too easy.
Akeena: Are your crew always this chatty?
Captain: Not usually. I guess the sign of a guest on our ship has them feeling a bit happier.

SCENE:
SR. OFFICER VINE COULD TELL THAT THE OUTFIT AKEENA IS WEARING IS VERY NOTICEABLE TO THE MALE EYES. IT BOTHERS HER A BIT, BUT SHE ISN'T GOING TO SAY NOTHING MORE OUT OF RESPECT TO THE CAPTAIN.

Captain: So Akeena, can you provide my Cadet here with the coordinates of your home planet.
Akeena: Yes, I can.

SCENE:
AKEENA WALKS VERY SEDUCTIVELY TOWARDS THE CADETS PANEL. SHE BENDS OVER VERY SLOWLY AND PRESSES THE COORDINATES OVER HIS SHOULDER. THE CAPTAIN TRIES HIS BEST TO NOT SHOW ANY SIGNS OF WEAKNESS TOWARDS HER FLATTERIES. HE NOTICES SR. OFFICER VINE STARING AT HIM. HE PERKS UP A BIT IN HIS CHAIR AND TRIES TO COMPOSE HIMSELF.

Akeena: There you go. They're in your database.
Captain: Great, Cadet how long will it take us to get there?
Cadet: At level 10 sir, it would be about 1 hour.
Captain: Okay, let's go ahead and start the coordinates.
Akeena: Gee, a whole hour. What is a lady to do in that time?
Sr. Officer Vine (Whisper): I'd like to tell you what to do.
Captain: Did you comment on something Vine?
Sr. Officer Vine: No, sir. Although I do know a place where I think Akeena would have a blast?
Akeena: Oh, what do you suggest?
Sr. Officer Vine: She might be able to help herself to the break room and get something to eat? I would love to escort her if you'd like?
Captain: That's a great idea. Maybe you might like to try some Nirvana food.
Akeena: Oh, what is Nirvana?
Captain: That is our home planet.
Akeena: I'm not familiar with that planet. Where is it at?
Captain: It's in the Milky Way galaxy.
Akeena: I'm not familiar with that. Is it a nice galaxy?

SCENE:
AKEENA LEANS OVER THE CAPTAINS CHAIR AND PLACES HER ARMS OVER HIS SHOULDER AND STARTS TO CURL HIS HAIR. SR. OFFICER VINE STANDS UP AND HEADS OVER TO AKEENA.

Sr. Officer Vine: Okay, I'm ready Akeena lets take you to the break room.
Akeena: I'll see you later Captain.

SCENE:
SHE TAKES HER FINGERS AND PRESSES THEM TO HER LIPS AND PLACES THEM ON THE CAPTAINS CHEEK. HE TURNS A BLOOD RED AS HIS WHOLE CREW WATCHES HIM TRY TO KEEP HIS COMPOSURE. SR. OFFICER VINE ESCORTS AKEENA TO THE BREAK ROOM AND THE WHOLE CREW STARES AT HER AS SHE LEAVES. THE CAPTAIN LETS OUT A LOUD BREATH AND GETS BACK TO HIS TABLET. JUST THEN THE BRIDGE DOOR OPENS AND A CADET WALKS IN. SHE APPROACHES SR. OFFICER BIRD.

Sr. Officer Bird (Yells): What! How is it gone?
Captain: Bird, is everything okay?
Sr. Officer Bird: It would appear that my head is missing.
Captain: Missing? Where was it last?
Sr. Officer Bird: It was in my office. I was running the test results on it.
Captain: Hmm...Winchester, can you send someone to Bird's office and see if you can find some clues as to who would take the head?
Sr. Officer Winchester: I will go Captain. Cadet, I need you to watch my station while I'm gone.

SCENE:
SR. OFFICER BIRD ASKS HER CADET TO WATCH HER STATION ON THE BRIDGE AS WELL AND SR. OFFICER WINCHESTER AND BIRD HEAD TOWARDS HER OFFICE TO FIND OUT WHO TOOK THE HEAD. MEANWHILE, VINE IS ESCORTING AKEENA TO THE BREAKROOM.

Akeena: So how long have you had a thing for the Captain?
Sr. Officer Vine: I don't have a thing for the Captain.
Akeena: Hone, I'm a Yriaf. I can sense the pheromones on the bridge. Hone yours were so powerful I'm surprised the Captain couldn't sense them.
Sr. Officer Vine: For your information, Humans can't sense pheromones.
Akeena: Interesting, what about that Drapoel.
Sr. Officer Vine: You knew Bird's species?
Akeena: Yes, they are an older species. They use to have a planet here in the Andromeda Galaxy. However, they moved on when the Regit laid claim to there planet.
Sr. Officer Vine: I didn't know that. Anyway, Bird wouldn't have said anything about the pheromones because she is an officer of the USFD.
Akeena: USFD? What is that?
Sr. Officer Vine: It's our government, they are the ones who tell us what we need to do.
Akeena: So there like your king?
Sr. Officer Vine: Not exactly, although the General acts like he is a king.
Akeena: My planet we have a king that rules over it. He is a great King. Very handsome king.
Sr. Officer Vine: Is everyone on your planet this seductive?
Akeena: If you mean loving, then yes.
Sr. Officer Vine: I see. I'll make a note to not allow our deployment team to take you down there, instead, they can transport you from the shuttle.
Akeena: You have no need to feel threatened. Now that I know you have laid your claim on the Captain. I'll leave you two to be.

SCENE:
NOW SR. OFFICER VINE IS BLUSHING. SHE REALIZES THAT AKEENA CAN TELL SHE LIKES THE CAPTAIN. SR. OFFICER VINE APPROACHES THE BREAK ROOM AND TAKES AKEENA IN THE BREAK ROOM. MEANWHILE BACK IN BIRDS OFFICE.

Sr. Officer Winchester: Where was the head?
Sr. Officer Bird: It was right there. Cadet, did you see anyone come in my office?
Cadet: No ma'am. However, I had to step out for a brief moment.
Sr. Officer Bird: I understand. Thank you, Cadet. That will be all.
Sr. Officer Winchester: So why would someone take your head?
Sr. Officer Bird: A joke?
Sr. Officer Winchester: That would be some twisted sense of humor.
Sr, Officer Bird: Yes, I guess it would.
Sr. Officer Winchester so are you just that clueless when it comes to sarcasm, or do you really not understand it?
Sr. Officer Bird: No, my people don't use sarcasm. We take every serious and no form of humor either. That is why your jokes don't seem to amuse me.
Sr. Officer Winchester: I know, I've told some great ones too. Well...no signs of any forced entry. I'll have a detail come in and see if they can find anything.
Sr. Officer Bird: Okay.

SCENE:
SR. OFFICER WINCHESTER WALKS OUT OF SR. OFFICER BIRDS OFFICE. SR. OFFICER BIRD IS ABOUT TO FOLLOW HIM WHEN SHE GETS A WHIFF OF SOMETHING. SHE TRIES TO MAKE A GUESS AS TOO WHAT THE SMELL IS, BUT SHE CAN'T QUITE PUT HER NOSE ON IT. SHE WALKS OUT OF HER OFFICE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THAT SMELL.
