Panel 1:
Narrative Text: Meanwhile... Romulan Security Station:
Romulan Guard Captain: All right, I'm here.... now what was so sensitive you couldn't explain it over the comms?
Romulan Guard: Sir, we've lost signal in the queen's quarters.
Guard Captain: What?! And you're just sitting here? Arm up and--
Panel 2:
Guard: No no... I didn't want to cause a panic. The servant put a towel over our camera.
And we're getting garbled audio. I think the water is running.
Guard Captain: You should have led with that. So the perimeter is secure?
Guard: Yessir... no movement in the hallway or outside the building.
And no unusual energy spikes.
Panel 3:
Guard Captain: Still... we should be cautious about an escape attempt.
Accompany the prince and ensure the queen is still in her quarters.
But be discreet! And allow a few more minutes. We don't want her to know she's being observed.
Guard: Yessir.
What about the servant? She placed that towel perfectly.
Should I have alerted the supreme advisor?
Guard Captain: No, he has enough to deal with. It's likely a coincidence. She's just a Spoogian, after all.
But do keep a close eye on her. Just in case.
Panel 4:
Narrative Text: And shortly...
SFX: *KNOCK KNOCK*
Prince: My queen? It is I, your betrothed! Have I arrived too soon?
. . .
My queen? Are you all right?
Panel 5:
Guard: Stand aside, my Lord. I'll check on the situation.
Prince: Absolutely not! I won't have you barging in on my dearest brandishing a disruptor!
Guard: But--
SFX: ka-click
Pavembril: Apologies! The door was stuck. Come inside!
Prince: You see? Now stand down and go back to... whatever it is you do.
Panel 6:
Pavembril: My Prince! Her ladyship is nearly ready. May I offer you a refreshment?
Prince: Oh, yes, please! Do you have any soy sauce ale?
Pavembril: Yes... I think we have the bottle you left for the queen still.
Panel 7:
Prince: I do hope you like the accomodations, sweetums!
Natashia Starrat: Oh yes, they're very nice. Thank you.
Prince: And I wanted to tell you... the advisor and I came up with some wonderful ideas for our photo op later!
Panel 8:
Natashia: Oh did you? I wanted to talk to you about that...
I had this fantastic idea while I was taking a bath.
Prince: Oh, you did? What was it?
Panel 9:
Natashia: Well, I thought... what if we went to the particle defense control?
Prince: Particle defense control?
Natashia: Think about it... it's the central nervous system that defends Spoogie from certain devastation!
We could be filmed operating it... even defending against a particle shower!
Prince: Oh, I love it! We'd be like heroes!
I'd love to be a hero. Like in the stories! But the advisor says I'm living in a fantasy. I need to be more serious.
Natashia: Well, you know... why don't you tell the Supreme Advisor it was your idea?
And maybe he'll start taking your other ideas more seriously.
Prince: Really?? You'd do that?
Natashia: Absolutely.
Panel 10:
Prince: Wow!!! I'll go and tell him right away!
You're the best!
