Holodeck.

"Tom, *this* Klingon program is acually quite good."

"Plain *good* or realistic?"

"Somewhere in the middle of those two."

"Ah, I´ll have to try again then."

"Shouldn´t you try your food?"

"I´m not in the mood for the Klingon kitchen right now. Besides, I always loose my appetite when a male Klingon warrior is heading straight towards me."

Big Klingon appears.

"My name is Mur´Akh. Human, fight for your mate."

"Look, Mur´Akh, I´m notcapable to fight you right now. You see, I haven´t eaten anything tonight and - "

Suop´s over Tom. Tom licks his fingers.

"Not so bad, acually. There I missed something."

"Eat later. First, fight me - "

B´Elanna hits Mur´Ak´s head with chair.

"Thanks, I was really in trouble for a second or two."

"You could have shutted down the program."

"Cowardly."

"Did you really mean that you think the suop´s good?"

"When the aftertaste kicks in, it´s not so tasty anymore. "

"I thought so. Do you know what to do the next time a Klingon warrior challenges you?"

"Bring a phaser rifle."

"Play dead."

"Does *every* Klingon warrior count?"

"With me, you don´t *dare* to play dead!"

"No, since it´s your tip, you´ll see through it."
