 To her utter surprise, there is a flicker of light and then Mel is back in 22<sup>nd</sup>-century Paris! She's sitting in a chair right outside the Office of the Federation President, and then a moment later President Jonathan Archer steps out into the room wearing a sleeping robe and slippers. He seems completely unsurprised to find her there, and says, "Didn't they tell you how to activate this thing?" Mel retorts, "Meridian gave it to me, so... no." Archer sighs but says, "Don't squeeze it, just tap the top twice. How can I help you, captain?" To her utter surprise, there is a flicker of light and then Mel is back in 22<sup>nd</sup>-century Paris!

-Still unsure if this is a simulation or not, Mel explains, "I have to defend a fellow captain in a Dominion show trial. And I just realized you have probably no idea what the Dominion is." Archer replies, "I assume you can't settle this with an //Ushaan// dual?" Mel shakes her head and says primly, "I have never been in a sanctioned //Ushaa//duel."

-Mel wonders, "Wait, you do know what the Dominion is? How?" Archer grumbles, "It's complicated. Do you want coffee?" Mel nods enthusiastically and admits, "I shouldn't tell you this, but I'm a big fan." Archer replies, "I know. Meridian told me." Mel groans and adds, "In an inspirational way, not a sketchy way!"
