A warning signal beeped on the weapons monitoring system.  He moved over to the display and was surprised by what he say.  There was a malfunction in the torpedo tubes on deck 10.  There was no apparent cause to the malfunction.  He had to see it for himself.

“Cadet, monitor these stations,” he called to a young Bolian cadet that had been standing in the background.

“Sir?” he replied.

“I don’t have time for this, Cadet.  Stand here or get out of main engineering,” he said sternly.

“Yes sir,” the Bolian nodded and stepped up to the monitoring station.

Bohb grabbed his tool box and headed out of main engineering.

Bohb got the the torpedo launchers at a dead run, knocking the people between himself and his objective out of the way.  When he got to the launchers he pulled out his tricorder and began to scan the systems.  There was nothing physically wrong with the launchers.  He could not see why they were not functioning correctly.

He went to the control relay and pulled the cover off with more violence than intended.  ~I will have to fix that later.~  Then he scanned the inner workings of the tubes.  Then he noticed something odd.  Something that could only have one explanation.  He reached into the panel and pulled out a single isolinear chip.  He inverted the chip and slipped it back into its position, then tapped some keys on the launch tube.  It suddenly came back to life.

He tapped his comm badge, “Bohb to the bridge, the torpedo launch tubes are now in working condition.”  He looked at the damage he had caused getting to the panel, “Mostly.”
