CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
TO:  Is the cargo bay ready as well?
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Ens_T'Lorn> CSO: Security of the cargo bay is confirmed. Authorized personnel and command level only. Passengers and non-authorized personnel with clearance, and security escort. Per lieutenant Arinoch, sir.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Ens_T'Lorn> CSO: Cargo will be routed to bay 3.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Nods::  TO:  Thank you.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: Just a heads up as you already heard we are now expecting passenger so you will need to make sure that he has an escort as well. Also Starfleet feels that there might be more to this cargo transfer than just helping out the Ferengi Alliance. So keep your eyes and ears open.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Looks up as an ensign approaches, handing her a PADD.  Taking it, she reads through it then signs off::  Yeoman:  Take this to engineering.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
CO: I'll adjust things accordingly, captain. If he can hold a weapon, he's considered on standby for this mission.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Informs operation to prepare for a guest::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: Roger just make sure that they aren't real trigger happy.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
CO: I'll make arrangements to have him escorted 24/7. When not serving as escort, the assigned officer will maintain position on his door.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
OPS:  Contact the freighter for their manifest as well as the name of our guest.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: Roger I have no reason to doubt you work do what ever you feel necessary.

<Duty_OPS> CSO: Roger Ma'am doing so now. :: contacts the freighter::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::produces the PADD, and slides it across the desk:: CO: An outline for procedures regarding the cargo bay, sir. Authorized personnel at the moment includes command staff, and members of the security team. Everyone else will be considered unauthorized, pending clearance from you, Commander So'tsoh, or myself, and will require a security escort once the said clearance is received.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:: looks at the PADD:: CTO: Looks good I will check with you later and see if you have any thing further.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
CO: Yes sir. With your permission then? ::gets up to leave::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<Duty_OPS> CSO: Ma'am I have that manifest from the freighter and well as the passenger's name.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:: nods to the CTO::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:

CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: As each department checks in, she marks them off.::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*CO*: Captain, all departments have checked in and are secure.
Host JonB says:
<Doctor Feelgood>  *CSO* there is problem here, I have a crate of linier chips, and I am missing a supply of  new medical tricorders.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::exchanges a few words with T'Lorn, who vacates the station for the secondary console, opens a line to the TIC and begins relaying new instructions rapidly while Donavin logs himself in::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*MO*:  Acknowledged.  I will have operations look into it.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
OPS: There appears to be a shipment issue with Medical.  Please look it over and check with the station.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<Duty_OPS> CSO: Roger Ma'am it is mostly large mining equipment and tools for digging in the mines as well as supplies and provisions and the passengers name is Zurg. He is the minister of trade 4th in line for the Alliance trade commission. :: send the information tot he CSO::
CIV_Savar says:
:: Rides a rear turbo lift up to Deck 1, avoiding the Bridge in the process ::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*CSO*: Roger keep me informed.
Host JonB says:
<EO Rachet>  *CSO* I was wondering, how are we suppose to check the engines with Medical tricorders that were just delivered?
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::absently, he takes another idle sip from his coffee as he goes over the morning reports::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*EO*:  Indeed.  I believe you are missing linear chips?
Host JonB says:
EO>  *CSO* How did you know that?

Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:: goes to the replicator and get himself another cup of coffee and returns to his desk::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*EO*:  A slight error in delivery.  It will be taken care of shortly.

<TO_Lt_Toral> ::manning the central desk in the TIC, supervising the deployment of personnel to their assigned area while ensign Mills goes through a weapons drill with his people::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Turns toward the front of the bridge::  OPS:  Cancel previous order.  Send someone down to medical to pick up the linear chips and trade them with engineering for the medical tricorders.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::bites off a small snicker at the new instruction from Sin, and just shakes his head... it was always fun at your local neighborhood Starbase::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<Duty_OPS> CSO: Roger Ma'am I am on it now. :: contact OPS department and give them the orders from the CSO::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Her sensitive hearing does not miss Donovin.  She turns to him with a lifted brow.::
Host JonB says:
Action: Station OPS is hailing again.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::receives word from Toral that personnel have secured their assigned areas, and sends an acknowledgement, not catching Sin's attention on him before the incoming hail::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<Duty _OPS> CSO: Ma'am the station is hailing us again.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
OPS:  Send it through.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<Duty OPS> :: puts the COM on screen:: ON Screen Ma'am.
Host JonB says:
<Yeoman Bruce>  ::walks onto the bridge and goes to the CSO::   CSO:  Ma’am, science sent me here to ask, did you authorized a shipment of phaser power cells?
Host JonB says:
Action:  A young office appears on screen.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::raises an eyebrow, and with a gesture, motions the yeoman over to him::
Host JonB says:
<Station OPS> COM: Shari: The freighter has arrived, and the Daimon is requesting to speak with your captain to arrange transport.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Lifts a brow and glances over at the new operations officer.::  Yeoman Bruce:  No, check with engineering.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:: hears the chimes:: Door: Enter
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
COM: Station OPS:  Acknowledged.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*CO*:  Captain, the freighter has arrived.
Host JonB says:
<Yeoman Bruce>  ::turns to the CTO::  CTO: Are they yours?
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*CSO*: Roger I will be out shortly.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CTO:  I need your people to go over the inventory with operations.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
Bruce: I can tell you in a moment. Don't go anywhere. ::offers the junior officer a faint wink, then taps a control:: *security*: Arinoch to security. I want whoever's going through our new stock to contact me ASAP. Possible shipping difficulty.
CIV_Savar says:
:: The doors part to reveal the frame of the Vulcan ambassadorial envoy ::  CO: Captain McDuggle.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::passes off a nod to Sin, and awaits the return call from his folks::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
OPS:  There appears to be issues with various departmental items.  Please have your people double check where everything is and where they are supposed to be.
Host JonB says:
<Yeoman Bruce>  ::smiles at the wink and winks back::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CIV: Savar old friend it is good to see you again.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<Duty OPS> CSO: Roger Ma'am :: wonders whose head is going to roll over this mess::
CIV_Savar says:
CO: You desired a conversation?
Host JonB says:
<STATION OPS>  ::still on screen::  COM: Shari: What shall I tell them.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::repeats the page again, and this time adds the threat of his request being delivered in person::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
COM: Station OPS:  The captain will be with them shortly.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CIV: Yes I do. I have just been informed that we will be taking on a passenger along with this cargo. I want you to meet this person when they  arrive, the CSO should necessary information. Also this also kind of indicates what Starfleet suspects that there is more here than just a simple cargo transfer.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::finally gets the response from a petty officer Davidson, and offers a nod, before ordering him to have a team assigned to retrieve the power cells, in exchange for whatever it was that got tossed at them from science:: Bruce: If you'll go down to tactical command, I've arranged to have you cleared through. Whatever you were expecting we'll make sure you get.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
OPS:  Prepare of transport of shipment.  Security will be with your people to verify the manifest is correct.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:: rises:: CIV: If you will follow me I am needed on the bridge.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::nods once at Sin's order, and orders the TIC to send in the security team assigned to the cargo now::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:: heads for the Bridge::
Host JonB says:
<yeoman Bruce>  ::CTO: thank you Cmdr, and if you are fee later look me up.  ::winks at him and walks off::
CIV_Savar says:
:: Follows the Captain to the Bridge, wondering how his role will fit into this mission ::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:: enters the Bridge:: CSO: That Ferengi Daimon still on hold :: grins::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Nods::  CO:  Aye, sir.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
OPS: Put him on screen.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::raises an eyebrow, but decides to just shrug it off... although, were his wife still here the ship may have one less yeoman onboard::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<Duty OPS> CO: Aye Captain on screen.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Turns toward the screen curiously::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::gets word the team is in place, and forwards notification to OPS before going back to reviewing and signing off on the previous night's reports::
Host Daimon_Trog says:
Action: The view screen switches form Station to  Ferengi Daimon aboard his vessel.
Host Damon_Trog says:
@COM:CO: Captain. Thank you for taking on this wasteful use of my space off my hands.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Lifts a brow::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Turns briefly to the COM system and orders all departments to double check their supply list.  If there were any discrepancies, they were to contact operations immediately.::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::has long ago stopped being surprised by much the Ferengi end up getting involved with... idly, he wonders if it wasn't around the same time a former first officer turned commanding officer drilled one square in the face::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
COM: Daimon: Your welcome we do like helping out our friends every so often. My CSO and Operations department will be taking care of the Cargo transfer once you are docked and Envoy Savar will be meeting with the Passenger you have for us as well.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CIV:  Ambassador, if you could join me.
Host Daimon_Trog says:
@COM: CO: I don't care, I'll have you know I was forced to loss out on a very profitable job taking on this shipment. I just want it off my ship, along with Zurg.  ::looks at his console::  and we have just secured. my officer is forwarding the coordinates to you know. you can transport at your leisure.
CIV_Savar says:
:: Nods his head slightly to So'tosh and rounds the command center to her side ::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
<TO_Lt_Toral> ::gets up from the desk as Mills returns, and returns to his office within the special investigations wing... much of this mission needn't concern his department, and hopefully, though he knew that would about render his department redundant, it wouldn't start to::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: As he arrives:: CIV:  Ambassador, your passenger is called Zurg.  He is the minister of trade, 4th in line for the alliance trade commission.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
COM: Roger we will start as soon as we have everything we need. McDuggle Out. :: nods to OPS to close the COM::
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::just shakes his head... even politics is all about the almighty dollar... or is it the almighty bar, now?::

CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CIV:  According to the data base, that means he is in charge of supply and demand of mining operations charge of profits.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
CSO: Which means someone's probably got some explaining to do when he gets there. The Ferengi hate shuttling diplomats around unless they have to... more so than the Klingons.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:; walks over to where the CSO is::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Lifts a brow at Donovin::  CTO:  Or it means more then the eye sees.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CSO: Which is what Starfleet indicated when they sent me the Mission orders.
CIV_Savar says:
CTO: Every task has its price.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Stands as the captain approaches::  CO:  Due to some issues with our own cargo, Lieutenant Arinoch has sent a team down to work with operations in verification of the cargo.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::just shakes his head... there was always something more, but if this diplomat doesn't wind up exploding on arrival, Donavin will more than happily consider it mission accomplished::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CIV: I need to know exactly what this Zurg has planned when he get to the mining operation.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CIV:  Our guest is not in good standing with his people.  This assignment is more of a punishment for a deal he made that cost the alliance allot of credits.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::another raised eyebrow as he listens to the conversation::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CSO: I want to know exactly who shipped all of the supplies around the ship and who signed for them. I am a former Operations officer and I will not have a sloppy operation department on this ship. Understood.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO:  I already have operations on it.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CSO: Good when you find the person I want him in my ready room for me to take care of.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Simply nods, more then willing to pass that duty over to the captain.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CSO/CTO: The ship should be docked and the coordinates sent lets start transferring the cargo.
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::drains the last of his coffee, and gets up to recycle it:: CO: Aye sir. My people are ready when they are.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CIV: I believe you have a VIP to meet?
CTO_Lt_Arinoch says:
::returns to his console, and rechecks his display:: CO: coordinates have just come in now. Relaying them to operations. My people are moving in.
CIV_Savar says:
:: Inclines his head and heads for the Bridge turbo lift, calling a car ::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO:  I will be in cargo bay three.
