Good Doctor Zomnker (This must be Tuesday," said GDZ to himself, sinking low over his Dr. Pepper, "I never could get the hang of Tuesdays.")

Might I suggest we leave someone, maybe one of the bots, in the room to ensure we have access?

It wasn't when we left it back in 2004, but things change.

I'll make a fresh brew of smiley - tea and smiley - coffee seeing as how the raft is collapsed away. Mind you, no matter how good a smiley - tea dispenser is, there is nothing like a freshly brewed pot.

*with the aid of the smiley - tea kit soon gets a fragrant pot of smiley - tea ready, along with another of smiley - coffee*

You know, that 'bot with the mustache reminds of the Maitre d' from Starship Titanic.

Garius Lupus

*Looks at the bot*

Yes, he really does look like he came out of that game. I wonder if he's as neurotic as those bots - he's certainly had the time and the provocation to develop some neuroses.

*Turns to Lil.*

Ooooo, roast beef sandwiches! I'm starved! And smiley - tea! Nothing like roughing it on an adventure. smiley - biggrin

I couldn't get past that Maitre d' bot, wasn't there something you had to pick up off the table behind him? I got so desperate that I went to look for a cheat or spoiler and that didn't work either. Ooooh I got so cross!

*holds the smiley - tea pot out*

Anyone?

Witty Moniker

*Holds her out for a fill.*

All I can recall is that along with having gotten some other item of inventory first, I had to be very persistent with that bot. I think I had to pick a fight with him.

That's right, but there must have been a bug in my version of the game as I couldn't get him to respond. One day I will have another go at it.

*fills Witty's cup with smiley - tea*
