On:

{Close to the Foward torpedo launcher, USS Excalibur}

::After leaving the Observation lounge and Captain McCloud, Myhon and 
Ingoldo walks down the corridors of the ship talking about how they 
are to modify the probe and torpedo. After a short ride in the 
turbolift they arrive outside the area close to the
torpedo launcher were there are some workshops::

::They enter and begin work on the probe::

Myhon: "What kind of probe must we use?"

Ingoldo: "A Class VIII will be perfect for the job."

Myhon: "Begin working on the shield generators and I will begin to 
program navigational sensors."

::While they work Commander Ford enters the room.::

Ford: "I am here to help with the probe."

Myhon: "Roll up your sleeves and begin with the guidance 
system. ::Smiles::

::They get working on McClouds specifications. After twenty minutes 
the modifications are done. Myhon fine-tune the engine and they are 
done with the probe.::

::They begin with a torpedo and remove the warhead. Ford is summond 
to the Bridge and leave them.::

::Myhon and Ingoldo modify and install the pulse-wave unit. It is 
dangerous work. You could cut the tension with a knife. When..::

Tolbin: ::Enters the room:: "How is the work progressing?"

::Myhon almost drops the unit::

Myhon: ::Sighs:: "Commander never _do_that again."

Tolbin: "Do what?"

Ingoldo: "You surprised us, Commander. We are installing the pulse-
wave unit and we must be very careful with it. One wrong move and the 
pulse-wave begins here."

Myhon: "It would be a interesting experience." ::He installs the unit 
and close the hatch on the torpedo::

Myhon: "We will run the final tests and then load them in the 
launcher, Commander."

Tolbin: "Very well."

::McCloud checks in and tells them of the 2 hours deadline. With the 
help of Tolbin they run the tests and load the launcher with the 
probe and torpedo. When they are done there is only 27 minutes left 
of the deadline."

Off: Will we make it?
