NRD-101 restarted and found himself in Engineering. His chest plate was open and Murb was poking her appendage into it. "Excuse me," said NRD-101, "but why am I in Engineering?"

After some fuming, NRD-101 was examining himself in the shiny metal plate of the main reactor assembly. "I really should have gotten colors that didn't clash for spare parts," he mused. His right arm had a blue panel, his left a magenta one. His chest plate was green, while one leg was base white, the other was peach and cherry stripe pattern. "At least my head is the original mustard brown," he said looking at his image. Something about the head caught his attention, and he turned on his camera hand and examined it. As he passed it behind his head he froze. "Son of a circuit!"

There, on the part information plate was the serial number of his missing spare head. "Oh my," he said softly. "The last crew assignment may have been that much harder than I thought."
