The alien spacecraft zipped through space, its engines propelled by energy unknown to man. As Elizabeth Shaw sat at the "pilots" cabinet, a sudden pang of curiosity entered her mind.

"David", she asked the android head lay next to her.

"Yes Ms. Shaw, is there an enquiry you would like to make?" responded the synthetic android.

"Yes there is, what exactly did you say to that Engineer?"

"It was a greeting phrase that I picked up from the crew members, it seems to generate laughter from them, and I believed that it was an appropriate to proceed with a warming welcome."

"Well, let's hear it"

"I believe it went like this: Hey, I just woke you up, like I woke up your mother last night." The android replied cheerily.

"…"

"Is there something wrong Ms. Shaw?"

"I fucking hate you."
