Alice in Not So Wonderland

Plot Synopsis


The crew is joined by Alice Tolman who takes on the job of ship's counselor.

Plot Summary


On orders from Alliance Command the Muffin is ordered to rendezvous with the Lollipop? and pick up a new crew member, Lieutenant Alice Tolman who will act as ship's counselor.
Upon boarding the ship Alice is immediately hit on by Johnny Danger who acts are first patient to psychoanalyze. He proceeds to regail Alice with tails of all of the women he's "scored with" and how quickly they got into bed with him in an attempt to get her to sleep with him as well. She is, of course, disgusted with him and turns him down, though less violently than most others have.
She then deals with Robin Cunningham and his various phobias, quickly learning that he is also afraid of milk, Shauna Finelli and her love of Starships and boys, and Red Shirt and his dislike of electroshock therapy.
After careful consideration she prescribes Prozac to the entire crew, save Skip, whom she gives Ritalin.
