Turbo-lift doors opened and Captain Branson enters as he walks over to the Captain's chair where Lieutenant Smith is sitting.
LT. SMITH: Captain you're early the day shift wasn't suppose to start till 1130 hours?
He raises his hand.
CAPT. BRANSON: Couldn't sleep report how is it going??
LT. SMITH [Sighs]: Slow going we had to alter course five times to avoid Klingon patrol ships.
Captain Branson crosses his arms.
CAPT. BRANSON: Well Starfleet Command said that these medical supplies are critical to Kastra Four, they suspect that the Klingons will try to stop this convoy like they did to the last two convoys.
Julia gets up from the chair as Captain Branson sits in the chair and slumps in it as she chimes in.
LT. SMITH [Sighs]: And the most powerful warship in the Federation fleet is on babysitting duty.
CAPT. BRANSON [Sighs]: True so true Julia.
She sits at the communications station.

Doctor Carlson and his medical staff are doing final checks on the medical supplies bound for Kastra IV, when his wife T'Lar enters the sickbay.
STEVE (Smiles): T'Lar hey sorry I left early I wanted to check the medical supplies before we get them to Kastra IV.
T'LAR: Hey you got a minute I was wondering when you are done with this we have dinner in our quarters.
STEVE [Smiles]: Sure honey.
T'Lar looks at one of the PADDs showing the list of the medical supplies.
T'LAR: These are the medical supplies for Kastra IV?
STEVE [Nods]: Yeah Captain Evans dropped them off at Starbase fifty-five, and we picked them up and we're also escorting the medical convoy as well. I'm just making sure that everything is in order and according to Doctor Tanner from the USS Yorktown the situation isn't good, it makes more difficult with us altering course everytime we detect the Klingon.
Before she could speak klaxon blares and Captain Branson's voice comes over the communications system.
