[The screen flickers on to a view of Max walking though the New Arrivals area. She's examining her Guide with some interest, dark brown eyes scanning the screen quickly.]
Let's see... what was it they said could access the Grid. Ah, FlamingFerret, there it is. Functions... functions... Text, audio, video. Hmm, some sort of multi-user blog I guess. And the settings are...
[Right then a big burly alien (who looks like a cross between a turkey and a racoon) taps her on the shoulder. Max jumps and turns around quickly.]
Um... hi...
You haven't gotten your Babel fish yet, miss.
[Except all Max hears is GOBBLE GOBBLE GOBBLE GOBBLE.]
Uh... okay... that's nice...
[And she's slowly edging away from the guy, because seriously... he's kind of freaky looking to her.]
Wait, miss, your Bable fish!
[And he holds up a little yellow fish.]
N-no thanks... I'm not hungry...
Oh for crying out loud, I am not paid enough for this. Look, I'll make this quick.
[The alien sighs and grabs Max's arm, which of course she does not like. In the process of trying to get her arm free, she drops her Guide.]
Hey! Let go of me!
[The alien quickly stuffs the Babel fish in her ear. Cue screaming. The alien, his job done, releases her arm and walks off, while Max tries to get the fish out of her ear.]
Oh god, oh god, it's in my ear! Help! Somebody help me! Some lunitac just shoved a fish in my ear!
