A/N: Just a little one-shot from the realms of my imagination for you, I have about 3 either half typed up or half-written, so please let me know what you think and I'll get cracking on some more!
Disclaimer: I don't own Nintendo Wii, Wii Fit or anything New Tricks related.
It had been quite a good day at UCOS. Until Strickland walked in.
"I'd like to introduce a new initiative to you, since all of you are over fifty," This statement earned a death glare from Sandra," We're giving you a Nintendo Wii and Wii Fit, free of charge, to ensure your health remains…satisfactory."
Gerry stared at him as though he was completely mad.
"Sorry sir, but what's a Wii and a Wii Fit?" Jack asked, frowning.
"You know, one of them board things that you stand on in front of the telly" Gerry explained.
"It's an interactive games console ,controlled by a wireless remote. The Wii Fit is a board that calculates your BMI. You can do activities like jogging and yoga using it." The DAC elaborated.
They all snorted.

"The Wii has arrived!" Gerry declared as Sandra came into the office.
" Oh joy."
"Stricky's coming in a bit to get it set up, says he's got one himself. Can you imagine him doing his yoga after work?" he chuckled.
She frowned, screwing her nose up. "Thanks for that, Gerry ,you've just put me right off my coffee!"

"Cheeky sod, I'm not that fat!"
"My eyes are BLUE!
"I hate yellow!"
"I'm taller than that, for gawd's sake!"

Shortly after the conflict causing catastrophe that was creating their Mii's, Strickland breezed in again, looking particularly happy.
"Having fun?"
Sandra forced a sweet smile. "Yes sir."
"Right, I'll leave you to it then." He nodded and left the room.
"Why does he keep coming in looking like he's won the lottery? He never stays longer than a minute. I reckon he fancies you, Sandra!" Gerry laughed.
She paused for a moment, looking quite frightened at the thought. "Well he'd better bloody not do!" she exclaimed, getting to her feet, "Come on then, let's give the thing a go."
"You're the boss, you go first." Jack smiled.
While Sandra was distracted, Brian decided to sneak in a quick Tweet on his secret new account: 'Sandra's about to be the first one to use the new Wii Fit. Rather her than me.'
"How the hell can I be at risk of being overweight?" ,she cried, "I either am or I aren't!" After much grumbling, she returned to the red loveseat, putting her feet up.
Gerry volunteered to go next, as Sandra had done it.
"Overweight. What a bloody surprise."
Then Jack:
"30.83? What the hell does that mean?"
"Brian? Are you having a go?
"No, definitely not. It's depressing. You lot will be worrying about your weight for days on end. Don't tell me it hasn't lowered your self-esteem?"
The trio glanced at him before looking at each other uncertainly.
"Nope," Jack declared finally, "We are not worried about our weight whatsoever, Brian! In fact, you are the one that should be worried. You haven't got a clue what your BMI is."
Sandra and Gerry nodded convincingly.

"Esther?"
"Yes dear?"
"Do you think I need to lose weight?"
