It was one of those days...
Quite frankly it had been one of those days for well... a very long time. So this one’s less than amazing beginning didn’t faze Rimmer too much as the alarms went off. So he was stood in the cockpit of the Starbug when he heard Lister’s reaction to the situation.
“Rimmer if this is one of you’re smegging drills again…” Lister had said threateningly until he realised that Rimmer wasn’t stood shouting over him, like the last time they’d had an enforced drill. No this could just be the real thing.
Rimmer was trying to figure out what was happening, something major or just the baked potatoes burning. The alert sign blinked behind him in red. He actually wished Holly was with them, as useless as the computer was it might have been able to give them some clue. He peered at a screen.
Lister finally joined him in the cockpit and then Cat turned up, rollers in hair and a dressing gown. Kryten waddled in last, apologising for being so late as he was offline.
It was Kryten who solved the mystery of what exactly was happening.
“One of Mr. Lister’s socks has escaped.”
Rimmer pulled a face, just what was needed, today didn’t look as if it was going to be any different than usual.
