[Erax]

"Chief Engineer Erax, who is your loyalty to? I also want access codes to Jean Luc Le Grand Chats log, i believe you have something that could help me?And is it true you're having an affair with Kamog down here...? "

Erax valiantly tries to resist, although the flashing lights are worse than the time he turned on Katchoo's disco simulation in the Holodeck by mistake. In desperation, he concentrates on the first thing he can think of.

"If we... integrate dee-theta from zero to theta... that is equal to MCp over UA times dt over T minus t... integrated from t1 to t2... which comes out to... theta equals..."

The flashing lights grow dim and then go off. Erax has put the probe droid to sleep ! He tries to drag the chair he is tied to, but it's bolted in place. Fortunately, the droid forgot to remove the tools from his back pockets. A few minutes of sawing at his bonds with a pocket knife and he is free. He quickly stabs the intercom.

"Engineering to Bridge, we have an intruder aboard ! Send security doon here immediately !"

Not wanting to be around when the red-shirt ensigns arrive and start shooting, Erax quickly leaves Engineering.
