<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">"Your kidding me right...?” she gave an exasperated sigh, “I swear when I find out who’s been jamming these things up there going to get my size nine shoved into them.” Taking a small moment she
tapped her trusty engineering kit and gave a small smile back, “which one is it today? I feeling like I know them all intimately.”

Janice followed him over to the malfunctioning device an slowly helped to pull the casing away, “You know I serviced this thing just last week. It was perfectly fine then,” Putting the casing to one side she heard Alistair’s surprised tone.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">Taking it out Alistair examined it. It was a metal rolling pin, slightly dented, with the words property of the Nine and Dine engraved on it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">Janice looked at it then back to one of the hands. “Excuse me?” she shouted over, “When did you guys get into the habit of storing utensils in the replicators?”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">“Something like that doesn’t exactly end up in here by accident,” she looked at it then paused before turning to face Alastair, “Wait – hold on - what was that last thing you said there? For a moment
I thought you said murder?”<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">She looked at him- then back to the pin as her security training kicked in pulling him back from the replicator, “Hold on – don’t touch anything. This classifies as something odd enough to get looked
into properly. Might be innocent but who leaves something like that in there ?” <o:p>
