Reposting from Crescent Coral Base....... Sorry for the delay in posting this week, I've been holding on to see if the 'mania would come back up...... unfortunately it's being stubborn so I will repost over there when it decides to co-operate! So onto this week's prompt and I hope we can have some fun with this..... "It's not you.... it's me!" Feel free to be as cheesy as you want!

Pour a cup...sip...spit it out...empty cup in the sink with a curse. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Jason even tried brewing a new pot, but the result was the same: the coffee tasted like something that could pass as radioactive slime from one of Spectra's moons. He finally looked at the coffee can's label. It was a plain white rectangle with two words: COFFEE Cure Coffee cure? he thought, What the -- An electronic chirp came from his communicator. "Ears on." "I just wanted to let you know that it's not you, it's me." "Zark, what are you --" "I've observed that certain members of G-Force have been consuming far too many caffeinated beverages. Therefore, I've taken steps to cure you of this habit." The robot sounded far too smug. Jason decided Zark should be tied to a set of tracks of an oncoming steam engine followed by a steam roller. And then the Condor would start getting mean.

I could see that happening. How dare that smug controlling robot steal the REAL coffee.

LOL! I can see Jason plotting his next move. Zark can probably cut the power to any outlet in the Center Neptune/Science Center complex, so step 1 is to obtain an air-powered drill handpiece and a small cylinder of compressed air with the appropriate fittings. Step 2, select drill bits and cutting discs. Step 3, conceal same in a lead-lined backpack. Step 4, take an elevator ride to Nerve Center. Step 5, it's all right, kids! Everyone's fine. Just ignore all those bits of mangled metal on the floor. Zark's fine. He'll be back next week!

What are those metal bits? Oh...uh...well, Rover was a bit naughty. He got into the bin containing the wrenches he likes to chew on and gobbled up every one before getting sick!
