On the bridge, Lasper said, "what makes you think that Valerie and I would-" Yakky cuts him off and said, "Love-" Kniff corrects yakky and said, "Lust." Yakky continued, "-always makes you act like a fool. How soon after meeting val did you check your approxiscan for sexual compatibility?" Indignant, Lasper said, "You are so not a romantic, Yakky." Yakky persisted and said, "Well....?" Lasper admitted, "Two days." And then he exclaimed, "Yes, I fell for Val! And yes, we're lovers! Okay?! I was going to tell you both eventually." Kniff looked over at him and said, "Wait, you really thought we wouldn't figure it out?" Feeling empathy, Lasper said, "They're just lost. two sweet women who are lost and in the wrong bodies." Yakky yelled back, "They were traveling with a Bollyck, Lasper. That spells t-r-o-u-b-l-e." Still confused, Kniff said, "Wait, like, you really thought we wouldn't figure it out?" Annoyed, Lasper justified with, "Come on, it's not like i'm going to do anything stupid. I just really like her. okay?" Baffled, Kniff persisted, "You reallllly thought we wouldn't figure it out?" Fed up with it, Lasper exclaimed to Kniff, "Yes, Kniff. Okay?! It's true. I didn't guess that you'd figure it out." Calmly back to work, Kniff said, "Consider my faith in your captainship not reassured."

Oh, and medi-bot, wherever you are, check out Valerie and make sure she’s okay.” Val brushed him off with saying, “Don’t need it. Don’t want it. Thanks.” Typing info into his console, Lasper said, “Let’s head towards Tornitus-6. We’ll have to think about what to do next.” Going up the stairs, Val said, “I’m going to go check on Audri.” Lasper asked one more time, “Um, okay, are you sure everything’s alright with you?” Val said, “Fine. I get it. Trust me. At this point, I don’t want anyone to know either.” Surrendering to this, Lasper sighed. Then Yakky said out of the blue, “So, how was she in the sack?”
