Gunther laughs enthusiastically then asks: "What is a camel citizen? And what is Siberian? I realize it is an adjective for its usage before the noun "camel" but what quality does it entrusts the noun in question?"

Seth's laugh slowly fades after hearing Gunther's remark.  He turns to Lynn and says "Yes, it makes a wonderful rime for candle, but now that I think of it I've never actually heard of a robot called 'Siberian Camel' before.  Are they a specialized model used in your service group?"

Lynn says, "Obviously, you must have defect in your programming before your decanting to not know such a thing.  Or perhaps The Computer did not see fit to bestow you vith that knowledge.  But remember, ignorance is bliss...and be happy."  She slaps her crop across her knee with that demand.

She gives a Personality Stabilizer Drug to Seth after his smile fades and orders him to take it.

"Are you claiming that The computer picked a defective troubleshooter for our team leader?"

(Seth's smile nevere wavered, he just finished laughing)

"Ah Lynn, your zealous execution of your duty is noted and commended." Seth says as he accepts the drug, "However, your joke failed to make me sufficiently happy so I feel it necessary to recommend a fine in order to motivate you to redouble your efforts as happiness officer.  Joseph and Bruce did not laugh at all; I found it moderately amusing with my simple upbringing in the placid and loyal halls of creche BCK... but I feel that the entire group would benefit from a deeper understanding of the joke.  Proper comprehension of the humor will directly aid mission success by improving morale.  You are hereby ordered to execute your duty as happiness officer by telling us about your 'siberian camel' and its 'humping'.

The Team leader calls Bruce to his side before preparing to take the pill.  He requests the loyalty officer ready his notepad, then addresses Lynn:
 "Certainly I welcome the PSD if in your professional opinion I am suffering from SSM.  To ensure proper pharmatherapeutic dispensation protocol is followed with regards to the timing and quantity of future doses, please make a statement for the loyalty officer's records that you believe the computer assigned a clone with an unstable personality, defective programming, and sub-standard morale as Team Leader.  Further assert that you are taking the proper course of action to ensure the condition is properly treated and will not resurface."

Suddenly seeming more alert than he had since being released from the chair, Bruce salutes, "Right away sir. Excellent idea."  Bruce hurries over to Seth's side, and gets out his ILTR1, opens it, and starts taking notes.

After a moment of writing, he briefly stretches his hand, resulting in a loud [grindPOPPOPcrackle] as he bends his fingers back to the back of his hand.  Turning to the next page, he looks at Lynn for her (possible) statement.

holds the carema

Lynn says to Seth, "Ah, I vuz testing you only, yes?  I do not know these vurds either.  Vut is Siberian camel and humping?  I do not know.  But those laughing must know of some treasonous knowledge, no?  Vie else do they laugh?  You as team leader should be votchful."  She makes some notes on her PDC after looking at each person who laughed at her joke.

"Vee must go to R&D, no?  Vie do you pause in taking us there, team leader.  Some hesitation in carrying out The Computer's assigned duties?"

Gunther wonders what a carema is and starts chewing on his pencil due to the tension.

All troubleshooters must maintain constant vigilance for any disloyal activities Lynn, but delaying the mission for random tests and questions is not the happiness officer's job and could be considered insubordination.  If you have a legitimate suspicion of treasonous activity then it is your duty to inform the Computer of it immediately. You cannot leap at every shadow and make veiled accusations against some of the most demonstrably loyal citizens of Alpha Complex.  If we were not all implicitly trustworthy then friend computer would not have elevated us to troubleshooters and allowed us to serve.
Friend Computer has made Alpha Compex the best possible utopia where all citizens may be happy and productive.  Believing all of one's companions to be traitors without any evidence is a sign of personality disorder. Please evaluate yourself for the personality disorder known as 'Paranoia' and medicate accordingly to restore happiness.

Seth claps her on the back with a big smile on his face now that the small matter had been set straight, then announces-

"Now, on to R&D!  We are officially on the job and must proceed with caution.  Those with multicorders should deploy them, the rest of you pay close attention to our environs."

So saying, Seth takes out his PDC and checks on the coordinates for the R&D facility we are to report to and sets off to lead the way.  He periodically takes his multicorder and waves it around at seemingly random people and things for good measure as they proceed on.

Gunther follow closely behind on the team leader chewing his pencil sharp.

Quickly scribbling in his ILTR1, Bruce noted "But where would you learn not one, not two, but three treasonous words?  And did you not laugh at your own joke about this 'cybeerian kamle'?  I shall have to inform The Computer about this at a later date."  Putting his ILTR1 away, he followed after the leader, noting to himself that Seth was recording things as they walked, just in case a Communist plot happened as the Troubleshooters passed by.

Let It be noted that I only laughed at the joke due to citizen's Lynn-R's funny way of speaking. She can say "Hi" and I will be laughing at her speech, another great pick from our valorous team leader as he picked the funniest Clone for keeping our morale up, AND it was me who first declared not to know what a "camel" is and what does the adjective "Siberian" refers to, so I was just trying to understand what Citizen Lynn-R meant by that, which she hasn't explained yet... But let us hurry to R&D I can't wait to see the Gadgets! Gunther states to his fellow mutant.

Gunther-R wonders why Seth-R is writing ECHO

"Is ECHO some kind of communist sign or code valorous team leader?"

Answering some questions I got:


Suddenly, the lights go off.  "Oh no, not again," says the Outfitting RED citizen in the pitch black darkness.  "I was just getting your destination for R&D.  I suspect some traitorous engineer is making the lights go off from time to time.  Give it about 30 seconds and it'll come back on.  That darned switchboard with all the outfitting equipment is blowing circuits or something."

IT IS PITCH BLACK IN THE OUTFITTING ROOM.  If you want to do anything during the long monologue of the outfitting officer or until the lights come back on, here's your chance!

CL stays quiet during the conversation trying to notice if anyone was spitting during the talking. He notes down some unclean behavior and watches.

"I don't hear anyvun laughing," Lynn says.  "How can I judge your happiness in darkness unless you are laughing?"

Seth lets the outfitter's monotonous monologue wash over him, listening intently for any sign of a threat.

Are you saying that you are unable to fulfill your duty citizen Lynn-R?

Lynn says, "I am saying you are insubordinate by not cooperating with me so I can fulfill the mandatory bonus duty The Computer has lovingly given us."

PM

Lynn says, "Why did the faithful Troubleshooter cross the road?  Because our friend, The Computer, told him to."  She utters a short laugh and listens for more laughter.

Bursting out in great guffaws of laughter, Bruce replies to the joke with a, "It's funny, because that it exactly why a Troubleshooter would cross a road!"  Calming down slightly from his short fit of laughter, Bruce will say, "I would officially include that joke in my review of this mission, but it is too dark to write in my ILTR as of now."
