"Do you have the reports I asked for, Scotty?" Kirk asked as he entered engineering.
"Well, of course," Scotty said, somewhat surprised to see the captain. He handed Kirk a couple PADDs. "To what do I owe the pleasure? Surely you could have sent an ensign down here to get these reports."
"Can't a captain visit the engineering department on his own ship?" Kirk said with a grin. "Ah but... I was checking in on you. How have you been since we left Argelius II?"
"We've been busy here sir," the chief engineer said, before adding, "Frankly, I'm glad to be far away from that planet as possible. I know I'm innocent but I'd rather not think about those poor women."
"That's understandable. And your concussion is healed?"
"Nearly, sir. The doctor said that I should be back to a hundred percent in a week or so."
"Good to hear." Kirk clapped Scotty on the back before turning away.
"Captain?"
"Yes, Scotty?"
"You – you didn't think I did it, before we figured out, did ya?" Scotty asked nervously.
Kirk shook his head. "Not in a million years."
"Boy, I have to say that is a relief, sir!"
