Second Contact

Ensign Tendi: I can't believe we are going to serve side by side. Scientists and commanders, an elite team.

Ensign Mariner: Yeah, no, we're not really elite. We're more like the cool, scrappy underdogs of the ship. You know, we don't wash our hands, we're doing kick flips all the time.

Ensign Boimler: But with focus and dedication, you could be chief medical officer someday.

Ensign Mariner: Ugh, senior officers are overrated. They're always like stressed out and just yelling about directives. It is better down here where the real action is.
