Last time on The USS Scimitar:

Host Rob-AGM says:
The crew sent an Away Team over to the Freighter MoneyBags to investigate the freighter.

Ops_Ander says:
*Hansen* Bridge to Hansen...Chief, stand by in Transporter Room 1. If something goes wrong, I want to be able to retrieve the Away Team on a moment's notice.

XO_Wnters says:
@Surk: Perhaps you could give our Ops officer your codes.

XO_Wnters says:
@Surk: There are still a number of unanswered questions.

CEO_McLir says:
@XO: We ready?

Host Surk says:
@XO: Give me access to the core and once I unlock it grant access to your Ops Officer.

CSOBandra says:

Host Surk says:
@XO: Your crew has full access to the core.  Simply use their normal Starfleet access codes.

CMOMcCell says:
MO: Not yet. ::Prepares hypo anyway, getting blood all over the place::

XO_Wnters says:
@*Ops* You now have access to the MoneyBags’ core. Terminate the Squad 51s access.

CEO_McLir says:

MO_Maor says:
CMO: Total.

XO_Wnters says:
@:: Follows the CEO and CTO ::

Host Surk says:
@::Follows the XO::

CEO_McLir says:
@XO: I'll check on the fire suppression system.

Ops_Ander says:
CO: Captain, we have full access to the freighter's computer core.

MO_Maor says:
CMO: I’m reading a massive drop 23% total.

XO_Wnters says:
@:: Whispers :: CTO: Take up the rear. You remember what I said, right?

Ops_Ander says:
CO, *XO* The ship's logs indicate no signs of attack...however, there are several hours' worth of logs missing.

CMOMcCell says:
::Removes the heart::

XO_Wnters says:
@All: Keep Comm channels open.

CTO_Bucha says:
@::Nods to XO::

CSOBandra says:

MO: Well what do you suggest we do now?

COIan-Ban says:
Ops: Good see if you can find out anything.

TO_Bishop says:
::Patches Comm signal through bridge speakers::

CMOMcCell says:
MO: New heart please.

CEO_McLir says:
@::Nods to XO and moves to freighters Engineering department::

Ops_Ander says:
CO: Those logs might have been damaged by an attack...or possibly erased by a crewmember.

MO_Maor says:
CMO: I told you rct 20cc.

CTO_Bucha says:
@:: Pulls out tricorder and begins to scan::

CMOMcCell says:
MO: Do you not remember he has no heart...no circulation, drugs won't reach him...

COIan-Ban says:
Ops: I know. That's why I want to find what we can.

CMOMcCell says:
MO: New heart. PLEASE.

XO_Wnters says:
@*Ops* Acknowledged.

MO_Maor says:
::Hands the CMO the new heart::

CEO_McLir says:
@::Steps into Engineering and pauses shaking his head::

CTO_Bucha says:
@XO: I'm picking up a faint DNA scan of Orion life forms sir.

Host Surk says:
@::Over hears the OPS Officer::

XO_Wnters says:
@*Ops* Sabotage perhaps?

Ops_Ander says:
CO: Aye, Captain. ::starts combing through the records::

MO_Maor says:
CMO: But rct is handled to increase the life signs by stimulating the brain.

CTO_Bucha says:
@XO: ...    and a weapons discharge!

Ops_Ander says:
*XO* I wouldn't rule it out, sir.

CEO_McLir says:
@*XO* This place is a mess!

Host Surk says:
@XO: Have him check data location 123A beta.   There should be back up data there.  It will not be complete but he should be able to pull an echo if he is any good.

CMOMcCell says:
MO: It won't reach his brain. ::Begins re connecting the blood vessels::

XO_Wnters says:
@CTO: Any possibility that they are still onboard?

MO_Maor says:
CMO: It's a direct to the brain injection..

CTO_Bucha says:
@XO: I'll need better scanning equipment to tell, sir.

XO_Wnters says:
@Surk: Lead the way.

XO_Wnters says:
@CTO, CSO: You are with me.

Host Surk says:
@XO: Aye.

Host Surk says:
@::Leads the way to the core::

XO_Wnters says:
@*CEO* Be careful Chief, there is evidence this ship was boarded.

TO_Bishop says:
::Continuing scans of freighter, relays data to Buchanan's tricorder::

CMOMcCell says:
MO: Impossible.

CTO_Bucha says:
@::Motions for Ens. Baker to cover the CEO and then follows XO...   monitoring tricorder::

MO_Maor says:
CMO: If you say so..

CSOBandra says:
@XO: Aye sir... sir, I think I’m picking up Orion DNA, very faint, I’d need to get a sample back to the Scimitar for a positive ID though.

CEO_McLir says:
@*XO* Acknowledged.

XO_Wnters says:
@*CEO* Ensign Baker is going to cover you.

CMOMcCell says:
MO: Hypo's are designed for non-epidermal puncture, intravenous injections.

XO_Wnters says:
@ :: Nods to CTO :: CTO: Good choice.

Host Surk says:
@::Arrives at the core and enters code:: XO: There you go

CTO_Bucha says:
@*TO* Thanks for the scanning info...   continue the link.

Ops_Ander says:
*XO* Commander, does the freighter's XO have any suggestion as to what happened? Extra data, backup logs?

XO_Wnters says:
@CSO: Take a sample. The important thing is they aren't here now.

CMOMcCell says:
::Finishes reconnecting the blood vessels and gets rid of equipment::

XO_Wnters says:
@*Ops* We are heading for the backup core now.

MO_Maor says:
CMO: Remind me to show you rct information when this is done.

CEO_McLir says:
@*XO* You're right, the fire suppression systems been monkeyed with.  Sent in O2 instead of CO2.

CSOBandra says:
@XO: Aye sir.

TO_Bishop says:
*CTO* Aye sir, don't want any nasty surprises down there.

MO_Maor says:
CMO: Life signs are steady at 83%.

CTO_Bucha says:
@*TO* You got that right....   Buchanan out.

XO_Wnters says:
@CSO: Begin scanning for the lost files.

MO_Maor says:
CMO: Let's turn the heart on?

CMOMcCell says:
::Glares at MO:: MO: Start the heart, then give him the drug intravenously and close it up. I'm going to scrub out, when you're done, scrub out and meet me in my office.

XO_Wnters says:
@*Ops* Relay the missing file times to the CSO.

CEO_McLir says:
@::Turns to red shirt and motions him to clear some screens::

MO_Maor says:
::Nods and walks to the computer terminal and starts the new heart::

Ops_Ander says:
*XO* Acknowledged... COM *CSO* I'm sending the log gap times to you now, Commander.

Host Surk says:
@XO: You might want to pull those chips over there and have your Ops officer check them.

CMOMcCell says:
MO: The RCT should stabilize him.

CMOMcCell says:
::Heads for wash room to scrub out.

CTO_Bucha says:
@::<Ens. Baker> turns to assist McLir::

CEO_McLir says:
@::Makes some adjustments to FSS and checks the SIF for the freighter::

XO_Wnters says:
@*CEO* Status of the fire?

CEO_McLir says:
@::Motions to red shirt to follow him::

XO_Wnters says:
@Surk: Which chips?

CMOMcCell says:
::Finishes washing and reenters office and sits at his desk reading PADDs::

CTO_Bucha says:
@::Periodically checking tricorder for changes in scanning data.

MO_Maor says:
::Closes the patient’s chest and performs last scanning::

CEO_McLir says:
@*XO* Checking now sir.

Host Surk says:
@::Points to a data bank:: XO: Those over there.

MO_Maor says:
::Walks to the other room to wash his hands::

XO_Wnters says:
@:: Opens carrying case and starts placing the chips in holders ::

CSOBandra says:
@*Ops* Acknowledged. :: reads information from tricorder, ties tricorder in with MoneyBags’ computer::

CEO_McLir says:
@::McLir and security each grab an extinguisher and put out the last of the fires::

MO_Maor says:
::Goes back and prepares a rct::

CEO_McLir says:
@*XO* Fires are out, but this ship isn't going anywhere soon.

COIan-Ban says:
::Gets up from chair and starts walking around:: Ops: Anything interesting in what you found?

CSOBandra says:
@:: Following AT, running through MoneyBags’ computers ::

TO_Bishop says:
::Recording tricorder data as it comes in from freighter's CPU::

MO_Maor says:
::Injects him and walks to the CMO’s office::

CMOMcCell says:
MO: Sit.

CMOMcCell says:
::Sharp voice giving commands::

XO_Wnters says:
@*CEO* Acknowledged Chief.

CTO_Bucha says:
@::Glancing around the freighter looking for physical signs of an onboard struggle::

MO_Maor says:
::Sits down::

Ops_Ander says:
CO: Nothing new, Captain. Commander Bandra is accessing the freighter's backup logs. He may be able to answer some of our questions.

CMOMcCell says:
MO: What is your position in this sickbay?

XO_Wnters says:
@CTO: You may begin your investigation.

COIan-Ban says:
Ops: Okay. ::Nods her head and continues walking around the bridge::

MO_Maor says:
CMO: Your assistant.

CMOMcCell says:
MO: Yes you're right, along with other duties. But being my assistant I'd like it if you would conform to my rules.

XO_Wnters says:
@*CEO* Is the ship stable enough now so we can tow it away from the nebula. I would like to be backed up by our transporters.

CSOBandra says:
@XO/*Ops* I think I’ve found it. We’ll have to pull some of the chips and take them back with us, it's pretty fragmented but with the chips and what Ops has already recovered we should get 95% of it. 

MO_Maor says:
CMO: But I have a right to give my opinion.

CTO_Bucha says:
@::Tricorder reveals new data::.....      XO: I'm reading very faint particles in the air....   it is some sort of knock-out gas, sir!

CEO_McLir says:
@*XO* We're going to need a tug for this thing.  Its SIF is almost gone.

XO_Wnters says:
@CSO: I think I have the chips here. Any I have missed just add them to the lot.

XO_Wnters says:
@CSO: Powerful enough to knock us out?

Ops_Ander says:
*XO* Sir, if I may...we could try to install a rudimentary SIF onboard, then use it and our shields to edge the ship away from the nebula.

CMOMcCell says:
::Stands, getting irate and raises voice:: MO: You're opinion does not include constantly second guessing me.

CSOBandra says:
@XO: Aye Sir. 

CEO_McLir says:
@::Checks M/ARC and fuel::

CTO_Bucha says:
@XO: It is a gas typical for an anti-intruder system aboard a freighter like this.

MO_Maor says:
CMO: So what you’re saying is that I can't express my opinions, and you are always right?

CTO_Bucha says:
@XO: The gas is not concentrated enough to hurt us, sir.

XO_Wnters says:
@CTO: Any evidence of beam-ins?

CMOMcCell says:
::Slowly sits back down again::

MO_Maor says:
CMO: And if you think that you are dreaming.

CEO_McLir says:
@*XO* This thing has been rigged to not give proper responses to commands.

XO_Wnters says:
@*CEO* Great. But can the ship be towed now?

Ops_Ander says:
*CSO* Can the contents of the isolinear chips be transmitted back to the ship?

CEO_McLir says:
@*XO* Suggest we get what we can from its computer, shut it down and get out of here.

CTO_Bucha says:
@XO: I'm picking up transporter evidence incoming in the computer core....   and outgoing from the core as well as cargo bays.

XO_Wnters says:
@*Ops* We are checking the structural integrity fields now.

CEO_McLir says:
@*XO* Not by us, need a space tug if not two.

CSOBandra says:
@*Ops* I’ll check...

CTO_Bucha says:
@XO: Whatever cargo they were carrying is gone.

COIan-Ban says:
::Stops, sensing something on Scimitar:: Self: Those two need to calm down. ::shakes her head::

XO_Wnters says:
@*CEO* I want to get it away from the nebula.

XO_Wnters says:
@:: Figures Ops is busy enough :: *TO* Notify Starfleet that we will need two space tugs.

CMOMcCell says:
MO: How Dare you.... ::Pause:: I said you are entitled to an opinion but it is up to me to take it into my  consideration and make a proper decision about the situation, as I do and then I will choose a path to pursue. Now, if you have any serious complaints about my judgement and actions as Chief Medical officer, I suggest you come to me in private and discuss them without the rest of the ship hearing. DO I MAKE MY SELF CLEAR?

Host Surk says:
@XO: I suggest calling McKinley station or UPF for two ships.

TO_Bishop says:
CO: Captain, it seems like someone went to an awful lot of trouble to disable this ship.  Should I contact Star Fleet Command?  ::Notices data coming in from tricorders::

CEO_McLir says:
@*XO* The SIF won't take a tow by us, and if we try to extend ours we'll be leaving ourselves open.

CTO_Bucha says:
@::Moves over to security systems and recalls recent history for breeches and alerts::

TO_Bishop says:
::Sends Comm to Starfleet command, relays brief summary::

MO_Maor says:
::Starts to shout:: CMO: You make your self very clear.... sir.  ::Leaves the room in a hurry::

CEO_McLir says:
@*XO* Someone went to a lot of trouble to disable this ship.

TO_Bishop says:
*XO* Aye sir, transmission sent and acknowledged.

XO_Wnters says:
@*Surk* I want to know what it was exactly that you were carrying, anything that might be worth all this trouble.

XO_Wnters says:
@*CEO* Indeed they did.. But why? Any suggestions?

CMOMcCell says:
::Follows MO and grabs his arm to stop him::

CEO_McLir says:
@*XO* I suggest I shut her down and we get on the SAR.

MO_Maor says:
CMO: What the hell do you want?

COIan-Ban says:
Self: That's it. TO: Send someone down to the sickbay to keep the doctors apart.

TO_Bishop says:
*XO* Sir, Starfleet command has 2 tugs en route.... ETA......  15 minutes.

Host Surk says:
@*XO* I told you dilithium crystals...for McKinley station.  If you do not believe me ask them.

TO_Bishop says:
::Contacts closest security team, relays Captain's order::

MO_Maor says:
::Turns around:: CMO: Let go of my arm or else.

TO_Bishop says:
CO: Captain, they will be there shortly.

CTO_Bucha says:
@XO:  The security logs show that the intruder alarm was triggered about an hour before we got here.

CMOMcCell says:
MO: LISTEN. ::Quieter:: Unless you change your attitude I will take further action, otherwise, if you have any real problem file a formal complaint about my practice.

CEO_McLir says:
@::Moves from Engineering, taking security with him::

COIan-Ban says:

CTO_Bucha says:
@XO:  Hence, the knockout gas particles.

COIan-Ban says:
::Walks back to her chair and sits down::

CEO_McLir says:
@::Approaches the rest of the AT shaking his head::

XO_Wnters says:
@Surk: Were you knocked out by your own gas?

CSOBandra says:
@ *Ops* Yes I’ll send it over now but we'll bring them with us for better analysis. :: Begins transmitting data::

Host Surk says:
@::Checking over the data in the computer::

MO_Maor says:
CMO: ATTITUDE?! You have the attitude problem here! Now let go of my hand!

CEO_McLir says:
@XO: Did we download the computer yet?

Ops_Ander says:
COM *CSO* Acknowledged...ready to receive data.

Host Surk says:
@*XO*: Unknown. I suggest scanning Zuk or Krug for traces of the gas.

XO_Wnters says:
@CEO: Completed now. We are going to send it to the Scimitar soon.

TO_Bishop says:
::<TO Johnson, TO Williams> enter sickbay, notice arguing, and approach the doctors::

CEO_McLir says:
@XO: I'll scan it when we get back, but from what I saw it's sabotage.

CSOBandra says:
@XO: Transmitting the data to the Scimitar now sir, they can have it started by the time we return.

MO_Maor says:
CMO: ::Shouts:: Let go of my hand now!!!

TO_Bishop says:
<TO Johnson> CMO: Sir, the Captain wishes to speak with you.  Could you accompany me to the bridge?

CMOMcCell says:
::As calm as he can make his voice:: MO: Calm down.

COIan-Ban says:
::Thinks:: Computer: Records on Merchant Marines ship Moneybags to my screen  please.

XO_Wnters says:
*CMO* Were your two patients knocked out by any gas about an hour before we found them?

CMOMcCell says:
TO Johnson: Could you wait one minute?

CMOMcCell says:
::Checks readings on PADD::

Ops_Ander says:
::Scans incoming data stream::

CTO_Bucha says:
@XO: I suggest inspecting the cargo bay, sir.

CEO_McLir says:
@XO: There's nothing we can do to get this thing going.  I suppose we could transfer their cargo for them.

MO_Maor says:
::Walks away from the CMO and then turns around::

TO_Bishop says:
<TO Johnson> CMO: Afraid not sir, she is requesting that you come with me now.

XO_Wnters says:
@CTO: We will make out way there now. Surk: Mr. Surk will you accompany us?

CMOMcCell says:
*XO* The CO and Klingon yes, in fact the gas caused the heart problems.

XO_Wnters says:
@*CEO* Very well. Meet the CSO on the bridge and see if you can help out. Surk, the CTO and myself are going to the cargo bay.

TO_Bishop says:
<TO Williams> MO: You are needed in Engineering... can you come with me?

XO_Wnters says:
@Surk: Not a very good deterrent is it now?

CMOMcCell says:
TO Johnson: I have staff problems.

CEO_McLir says:
@Surk: So, where did you get those crystals?

Host Surk says:
@XO: Yes. ::Follows XO::

MO_Maor says:
TO Williams: What for?

CTO_Bucha says:
@::Overhears Comm from Doc McCellan::   XO: Well, it was a pretty smart and quick way to infiltrate the crew, huh.

Host Surk says:
@XO: I believe the intruder gas was triggered to knock us out then they beamed over.

TO_Bishop says:
<TO Johnson> CMO: Yes, sir.... but the Captain's waiting...

XO_Wnters says:
@Surk: Did you copy the CEO's last question?

CEO_McLir says:
@::Moves to CSO's side:: CSO: K'vin, what can I do to help?

CMOMcCell says:
TO Johnson: OK, MO: I'll take this up later. TO Johnson: Take me to your leader then.

TO_Bishop says:
<TO Williams> MO: Not sure, but they sent me for you.... please, come with me.

MO_Maor says:
CMO: You bet we will finish that later, one way or another.

Host Surk says:
@CEO: From Starbase 175.

COIan-Ban says:
Self: Well so much for that. Ops: They check out.

CSOBandra says:
@CEO: Getting these chips together would be a big help. 

MO_Maor says:
