"Welcome back!" -Hess shouts over the cheers of the crowd-

"First of all we'd like to thank you all for the messages you've been sending to the studio! All were much appreciated!" -crowd cheers again-

"Now we all saw some of my sneaking around earlier, more of that later, but now it's time to meet out judges!" -she says excitedly and jumps over to the left hand side of the stage where there is a table and three empty chairs behind it facing the stage-

"Judge number one! We all know and love him, the voice of reassurance all though Enterprise's mission, all the way from Starfleet headquarters in San Francisco . . . give it up for ADMIRAL FOREST!" -crowd screams and cheers as Forest makes his way onto the stage and over to Nic-

"Thank you, thank you! It's great to be here!" -he says into the mic. before taking a seat at the table-

"Okay Admiral Forest everybody!" -crowd cheers again-

"Okay judge number two. You either love him of hate him, although he does neither. It's the voice of logic and reasoning . . . . AMBASSADOR SOVAL!" -crowd cheers but boos and hisses are heard as well-

"Ambassador over here! Are you exited about being one of our judges?" -she asks-

"Excitement is an-"

"Emotion, right, sorry. Intrigued? Interested?"

"You could say that, yes."

"Great, thanks, Ambassador Soval everyone!" -more applause- "And now, our final judge . . . isn't quite ready yet." -crowd 'ohs' and sighs- "So to keep you entertained, let's see some more of what I got up to this afternoon!" -crowd cheers-

-camera cuts to Hess in the dressing room corridor again-

"Now I was just in Travis' dressing room, and it was empty." -she says to the camera- "And I've heard rumours that Ensign Sato was seen hauling what looked like a water cooler water tub around a few minutes ago." -she stops and looks up when a shriek is heard- "Come on." -she motions with her hand and begins to run in the direction of the shouting-

"Travis no!" -Hoshi shrieks just as we turn a corner and see Travis empty a large tub of water over her head, he grins evilly-

"Is this your method of preparing to perform?" -Nic questions, they look sheepish-

"Not usually." -Hoshi glares at Travis-

"As we've got you here, anything you want to tell us about what you're doing this evening?" -Nic asks earnestly-

"Sorry, my lips are sealed."

"Mine too." -Travis adds-

"Not even a hint?"

"Nope."

"Sorry."

"Like hell they are." -Nic mumbles into the camera- "Okay never mind guys!" -she says louder- "Good luck for tonight." -she looks down the corridor and then back at the camera-

"We're coming up for a commercial break, but if you want to send a message in to the studio, hit the purple button on the bottom left hand corner of your screens! We'll be right, I think I just saw Malcolm at the bottom of the corridor, so don't go away!"
