Seven rubs her head as her and Five walk down the hall

They see Three

"Hey." Three and Five say at the same time

Three tosses something to Seven

"Painkillers." Three tells her

Three makes a hand motion through the air and Adrian flies forwards

"What--" Five tries

"Yes, it is a fine morning, and no, it's not a faulty relay switch." Three says, passing the Android who's fixing some of the ship. "I didn't take it. Check behind the night stand." Three tells Two
