- Mars Space Control calling the crew of Probe One. Mars Space Control calling the crew of Probe One. Come in, Captain Omega, and give us your location.
- A sandwich.
- I have a close sighting of the space crew, sir
- Excellent. Make voice contact
- Captain Omega to Mars Space Control. Lieutenant Iota, Segment Oop, and I have arrived on Earth without incident. We have taken shelter in this - this square place. Have you any idea where we are, Lieutanant Iota?
- Perhaps the Great and Mighty Think-Tank will give us the benefit of his thought on the matter.
- I haven't a clue. I've been to 7 galaxies, but I've never seen anything like this. Maybe they're hats. Say, maybe this is a haberdashery!
- I can't figure it out Captain. I've counted 2000 of these peculiar items. This place must be some sort of storage barn. What do you thing, Sergeant Oop?
- That item in you hand is called a sandwhich.
- Elementary, my dear Omega. Hold one of the items up so that I may view it closely. Yes, yes, I understand now.
- Oh, no, no. But poor Lieutenant Iota has not had herbreakfast. Lieutenant Iota, I order you to eat this —this sandwich.
- Eat it?
- That is correct, sir.
- To confirm my opinion, I order you to eat it.
- Sandwiches are the main staple of Earth diet. Lookat it closely.(Omega squints at book.) There are twoslices of what is called bread, and between them issome sort of filling.
- Do you doubt the Mighty Think-Tank?
- For the glory of Mars, Oop!
- Who, Lieutenant? Me, Lieutenant?
- Eat it? Oh, Captain! It’s a very greathonour to be the first Martian to eat a sandwich, I’msure, but — but how can I be so impolite as to eatbefore my Sergeant? Sergeant Oop, I order you to eat the sandwichimmediately.
- Well, Oop?
- That is correct, sir. It was not delicious. Idon’t know how the Earthlings can get thosesandwiches down without water. They’re dry asMartian dust.
- Was it not delicious, Sergeant Oop?
