" I can't be a smart mouth all the time." McKenna smirked. " I've got a bit of a problem. My patient wants to speak with, he pretty much demanded it. And he wants Frankie to treat him, and the jerk doesn't seem to be taking no for an answer from me. Would you mind dealing with him?"

On the Bridge
Tawfeek mulled it over. He wasn't jumping out of his seat. "You do realize this is the guy that challenged me to a duel because I wouldn't let him make a move of Stephens, right?" Tawfeek asked, rhetorically. "I'll go talk to him. You'll watch the controls. it's on auto-pilot. Just watch out for comets and bread loaves."
As he headed for the door he added, "If there's a problem, call Stephens or me, first."
A few uneventful hours later, Tawfeek came back. "The matter is resolved." He said, grimly.

McKenna snapped out of her semi-sleeping as the door opened and Tawfeek spoke. She gave him a stern look as she got out of his chair," Is he in the same condition I left him?"

With the adrenaline and caffeine wearing off, and the medication taking full hold, Flip slips into an ever deeper sleep not even seeming to dream as his body tried to rebuild its energy stores from the exertion he put them under performing the complicated escape manuever that the captain suggest and later reprimanded him for.

In Foreman's quarters
Luckily, as he slept, Foreman didn't hear anything.
In the galley
Flash-scene cut to Jessica still sipping coffee with Mensk.
On the bridge
Flash-scene cut to McKenna eye-contacting, soap-opera-style, with Tawfeek while she waited for an answer.
Tense soundtrack music played while she waited for an answer.
Tawfeek looked ready speak...

OK, you waited enough...
"I'm not his doctor. I couldn't tell you." Tawfeek answered with a shrug. Turning away from McKenna, to look outside into space, he continued. "But, whether or not you are is probably not a question worth answering, either, anymore."

Puzzled at first, McKenna's eyes suddenly backed away from Tawfeek, " You killed him? Why?"

On the bridge
"I don't like the word 'killed'." Tawfeek answered, tonelessly. "I prefer 'smothered with kindness.' I am a suffocating nurse, I'm told."
Keying the comm, he said "Stephens, Foreman, can you come to the bridge?"
Turning back to McKenna, he said, "You are dismissed. I can fly the ship, now."

Foreman startles at his name over the Comms, and struggles to shrug off the sleep that the GM/Captain made him partake in.
He sits up with his feet hanging off the bed and rubs his face to push the sleep further away from his eyes. 'hope those drugs have worn off. I do feel refreshed though.'
He gets up freshens up then heads up to the bridge to see what the captain needs.

McKenna looked at Tawfeek in disbeleif. She was about to say something when she stormed out. " Unf..kingbeleivable," she sputtered as she headed for med lab, nearly running Flip over in the corridor.
"Sorry Flip, I... ," she cut herself off, ducked around the pilot and continued towards medical at a brisk pace.

Flip tosses the Doctor a confused, concerned, half asleep look before walking onto the bridge, "Captain, is there a problem, the doctor looked pissed."

On the Bridge
"I am a very bad man." Tawfeek answered Foreman, as the door closed. "Are you rested?"

Hearing the page, Jessica starts to head toward the bridge. However, seeing McKenna looking as upset as she did, Jessica frowns in concern and asks, "Is everything ok? You look upset."

McKenna didn't want to stop. She had to see for herself. " I..., I don't know if the captain is messing with me or not. I have to find out, and check on my patient." she answered, and nearly ran towards medlab.

In the Medical Bay
As McKenna turned the corner, she saw Franklin leaning on a counter talking to Captain Stewart.
