'I suppose the Engine Room is aft, is it?''At the end of the Grand Axial Canal, Second Class, through which you are now entitled to pass. Here is another voucher entitling you to a free glass of Moon-swill at the Bar.' The Deskbot handed Nettie another ticket and switched itself off.Nettie went as fast as she could - her high heels echoing round the loggia - towards the entrance to the Second Class Area.Meanwhile, Lucy and Dan were trailing miserably round the SGT corridors pointing their Personal Electronic Thingies at each door in turn. But to no effect.'What was Nettie's plan?' Dan decided to take their minds off the present hopeless task... 'She said something about the Engine Room,' grunted Lucy.'Maybe she knows about engines?' said Dan.'Nettle?! Oh sure! Hey! There was a click! I swear!' Lucy tried one of the doors, but it was resolutely shut against them.'Well, you know, for one of Nigel's bimbos that Nettle's pretty bright.' Dan nodded to himself.'Oh. I didn't realize you were interested in her mind,' replied Lucy.'What's that supposed to mean?' Dan was taken by surprise.'It's opening!' exclaimed Lucy as one door seemed to give for a moment. 'Oh! No, it isn't.'She's a nice girl,' said Dan.'You ought to know. You've been ogling her ever since dinner... God! When was that? It seems like a lifetime ago!''I wasn't ogling her.' Dan's 'injured innocence' count was incredibly high some days.'Anyway' Lucy was now working off her frustration - 'if Nettle's so bright, how come she allows Nigel to treat her like a Barbie doll?''Does she?''That sort of woman makes me sick! Why doesn't she stand up for herself?''She still might be quite bright,' Dan ventured without much hope. Lucy's powers of certitude always had a crushing effect on him.'There is no correlation between size of brain and size of tits, penis-head!' Lucy had a cruel side.'Got it!' Dan had just pointed his PET at a door and it had - wonderfully and graciously - swung open for them.
