NOTE: This is not meant to make sense, it is just a thing I wrote for fun. (I do not want to offend any religious people, but the'pope-disease' had to be)

WHAT YA NEED TO KNOW: Max and the others never escaped Manticore (But Eva and Jack are still dead). They're grown up now (at least physically), and they're loyal and obedient and all that crap. So, to ensure a 'better education' for the next generations of soldiers, a supervision unit is chosen, directly commanded by Big Daddy Colonel Donald Michael Lydecker. Guess who's the unit.

19:11 Col. Lydecker spits out the mouthful of water he was about to swallow.

19:15 Laughter ends. Writer is asked to cross out the last point, but refuses. Therefore writing duties are taken over by X5-210.

19:20 X5-599 suggests a field exercise to show the abilities the new units already possess. Second round of beer - X5-656. X5-452 buys another glass of water for Col. Lydecker. Writer allows herself to call 452 'everybody's darling'.

19:21 Writing duties and report paper are returned to X5-656, as X5-210 is temporarily knocked out. Col. Lydecker accepts the suggestion of a field exercise, but tells the staff members that 'certain amusements' will not happen this year. Reaction of X5-701 : 'What ? No Halloween Party ?'

19:25 Laughter ends. X5-471 decides to get some additional money to his payment and joins the guys at the roulette. X5-734 slaps her forehead in disgust.

19:30 Col. Lydecker tries to bring conversation from physics back to the actual problem.

19:40 Col. Lydecker succeeds. X5-798 says that the bugle corps should play the national anthem when the Committee arrives. Suggestion is accepted. X5-452: 'And how about a poem ?'.

19:41 X5-599 has to protect X5-452 of staff members who are not as humorous as she is. Writer has to go to the toilet ('Gaah ! 205, you moron, your beer does NOT fit with my tank top !'). Therefore writing duties are turned over to X5-493.

19:45 Third round of beer - X5-734. X5-452 has to assure Col. Lydecker of her capability to handle another pint. 'Everybody's darling, everybody's darling...', X5-210 whispers on the floor, but is quickly silenced again.

19:50 Col. Lydecker asks X5-734 to look for X5-656.

19:51 Writer is asked to write only results, not every piece of the conversation, but refuses,referring to the 'Rules for Writing Official Documents - Basics for Officers'.

19:52 X5-471, calling over from the roulette, says that such a book does not exist.

19:53 X5-656 takes over writing duties and adds point 19:52

20:00 Col. Lydecker realizes that further attempts to discuss the Committee Visit would be useless. He asks writer to re-read today's list of topics. Writer refuses because nobody is listening. Col. takes his Desert Eagle out of his pocket and adds a silencer, then fires a shot under the table. Everyone is silent. Writer re-reads list of topics. Col. Lydecker puts Desert Eagle back in pocket.

20:10 Staff is thrown out of club because X5-471 started a fight about the 5000$ he won. Writer has to admit that writing while walking is difficult.

20:15 X5-701 holds a leg out and X5-471 gets the 'pope - disease'...kisses the ground.

20:16 Writer is threatened by X5-471 to cross out last point, but refuses.
