The EMH's eyeballs ping-ponged between the two women and the situation for him became curiouser and curiouser.

"You mean you're the captain?" he said looking at B'elanna who nodded, "and you're B'elanna?" he asked the captain. "How did this happen? And why wasn't I informed immediately?"

"This is as immediate as possible, Doctor. There is an alien diplomat who can solve our dilithium shortage problem, but in order to make that happen I need to be on their ship in about five minutes. So unless you have any ideas..."

The EMH slowly drifted towards his medical equipment resting on a nearby bracket table mindlessly loading a hypospray, pondering then suddenly turned to face the two women.

"Hold on a minute," he said suspiciously. "How do I know you're telling me the truth? For all I know you could both be under some alien influence or hallucinating!"

:comm: Bridge to Captain Janeway. Sorry for the interruption, captain. But the Prime Minister insisted that I remind you that you have under five minutes to begin the Ritual of Trade. And she wanted me to keep her up to date on your status. What should I tell her? :comm:

"Almost ready," Janeway whispered to Torres. Because it looked as though the situation was not going to be fixed in the next five minutes, she made some preparations.

:comm: Torres to engineering, I need an unnoticeable way to transmit audio to and from a person's ear from one ship to another, and I need it in sickbay in three minutes. Torres out. :comm:

"This can't be happen! I can't do this. I won't! I don't know anything about this being. I only spoke to their Supreme Engineer for 10 minutes to check out the dilithium. I can't do a ritual! I'm an engineer not a diplomat!

Torres: It was pretty boring, until Ensign Farley started snoring and then no one could keep a straight face. Of course, the Doctor wasn't at all amused.
Paris: Oo! Hockey!
Torres: It was a shame that we had to cut the lecture short, but the warp core overloaded and then the Borg invaded and we were all assimilated.
Paris: Ah ha.
Torres: You haven't heard a single thing I've said, have you?

"Oh," B'Elanna whispered turning red. "Well, everyone as you can see B'Elanna and I were doing some role playing, to work on.... social skills. And I have to say B'Rlanna, you reay are improving. Now Harry please tell the prime minister I will be there on time. Janeway out."

ooc: LOL, can't wait to see what the bridge crew does with that! :D

ic: "I suppose that's the best possible way that could have gone.." Janeway faced Torres squarely. "You can do this, and you have to. From what I did read in their cultural documents, they won't accept body-switching as an explanation for me showing up looking like you. You'll have a comm, I can talk you through it."

There really wasn't anyway out. The captain was right. She was. Going to have to do this. "Fine. Can you tell me anything at all about these people."

Janeway quickly went over the most significant facts. "They're extremely focused on propriety. You can't offend them, or they take it very personally. Make sure you make eye contact with the Ambassador when you beam over, otherwise they'll send you right back. Don't speak to anyone but her unless she asks you to, and," this was a weird one, "don't touch anything with your pinkie fingers." Janeway figured that warranted a better explanation. "They only have four digits, and consider it rude to make use of what they consider to be "redundant appendages" in front of them."

B'Elanna׳s face turned white. "This is why I didn't become a captain. That and the fact that I dropped out of the academy. " She swallowed. "Ok, don't be offensive, eye contact with the ambassador, don't speak unless spoken to, and don't use pinkie. Anything else."

"Those are the basics, but they sent me a 200,000 page database, so there's no way to give you a short version. To be honest, I'm not even sure that I found all the significant parts."

"And if I mess up," B'Elanna asked in a whispered.
