{USS Independence, Brooks Balrog's Quarters}

Balrog had been waiting weeks, no months, to visit the famed plastic beach on the north shore or Risa's eastern most continent. He had read much about it and knew the holodeck just couldn't it justice.

"Copy Plastic Beach coordinates," he said into his PADD before tossing it on his desk, which was already full of other PADDs.

He continued to pack, put on his swim trunks, and his inflatable duck float. He was ready.

"Off we go!" he announced before grabbing a PADD from his desk... a PADD next to the one with the Plastic Beach coordinates.

{Transporter Room}

"Where ya headed, Lieutenant?" asked the transporter chief.

"That's for me to know and for you to find out," Balrog replied with a smile.

The chief looked at the coordinates. "You sure about this, Lieutenant?"

"I've never been as sure about anything in my life."

"Well.... Okay."

"Energize!" Balrog called from the transporter pad.

OFF:

Uh oh! Where did Balrog accidentally send himself???
