It was about 09:30 Athena time when Mariska and Ted walk down one of the main corridors of the ship with a heavily laden trolley. Normally they wouldn’t undertake such an endeavor but this was a special situation. Such a coffee break was in order for one of their favorite members of the crew. They had been sick for quite some time and had just been cleared for duty so a bit of a surprise party before going on shift was in order. Finally, the approach to quarters was made and Ted was getting ready to ring the chime.
