As John and Kat approached Thunderbird Seven, they were greeted by Nikki, who was preparing the next triaged patient for treatment. She looked at them critically, running her experienced eyes up and down. "What do you need?" she asked bluntly. "Are you injured?"

"No, uh, Angel," Kat said, a bit stung by Nikki's abrupt question. "Einstein has broken his glasses and we need some dry clothes for our work with the hospital's second generator."

Nikki gave both of them a strange glance. "Well, why didn't you call Mobile Control and let... Maverick know? Or call us directly? We could have had them ready for you."

Kat blinked then smacked her forehead with her hand. "I didn't even think of it. Neither did Einstein." She glanced up at John, "Why didn't you think of that?"

He held up his hands in a defensive gesture. "Don't look at me! I assumed you'd already done it."

Just then, Dom came to the entrance. "Doc is ready for the next one." Nikki activated the antigravity stretcher on which the patient lay and began to push it up the ramp. Dom took control of the head, and pulled. The stretcher floated easily up and into the cabin. The dark-skinned nurse stopped at the top of the ramp and shucked her gloves, then called into her hands-free unit, "Doc, does Einstein keep a pair of spare glasses aboard? He does? Where are they? Oh, Okay. And can we spare some clean, dry clothes for the mechanical team? Okay. I'll get them." She glanced down at John and Kat and motioned to the control cabin. "I'll meet you in there."

The two of them climbed into the cab, and John opened the cooler. He grabbed a bottle of water then looked down at Kat and said, "Looks like you've got things under control here. I'm going to head back to the Mobile Crane."

"F-A-B, Quasar. See you later," Kat replied. She pulled out a bottle for herself, and one for Brains, pocketing them as Nikki came out with a bag of clean rags and a small, hard-sided case.

"Here's what you need, MGM," she said with a sigh. "Next time, give Mobile Control or us a holler and we'll get things ready for you."

"I'll remember that," Kat said as she took the item. "Good luck here, Angel."

"Thanks, MGM," Nikki sighed again, looking out the viewport and adding softly, "We're going to need it."
