<Lt. Cmdr. Max Mortimer, His Quarters>

Mortimer walks over to his replicator. "Water. Ice cold" 

A glass of ice cold water materializes and he drinks it straight down.

What was I dreaming about. I can remember Romulan ships attacking me. I was alone on the Lafayette. That's all I can remember....

Mortimer notices that he has slept in his uniform, and steps into the sonic shower before changing into a clean uniform and throwing the dirty one on the growing pile next to his bed.

Must remember to take my laundry down to stores. There isn't room to move around in here.

[Stores don't actually clean uniforms. They re-process them into their constituent materials, and these are used to create new uniforms.]

It would be good to get the First Officer position permanently, if only to get larger quarters.

He steps over to his workdesk, and activates the terminal.

"Computer. Access file Refit-One"

"Add entry three. Replace beds in senior officers quarters with drop-down models to gain more space. Terminal off"

I need something to do.

Mortimer leaves his quarters and heads to the holodeck.
