Katherine, the story's heroine, and her robotic Lab partner, Blip, have made an invention that links Albia to Earth, called the HoloDeck. After doing a trial on a Banana (Bald) norn named Jenna, they show a friend of theirs, Susan, what the HoloDeck can do. They transport Jenna into their world. The trio decides that Jenna must be hungry, and go to the kitchen to find some cheese. Katherine forgets to turn of the 'Deck, giving Jenna the oportunity to use the device. She imports a Purple mountian male named Jack. Katherine & her friends discover what she did this just as they KissPop. However, they can't put Jenna back into Albia, because the HoloDeck reacts with fetal fluids to make toxins strong enough to kill a pregnant female on import.

And so it goes...

"So, let me get this straight." said Susan, looking Katherine in the eye. "Jenna, if she is pregnant, can not go back to Albia."

"Right." Said Katherine.

"Because if she does, the fetal fluids would kill her." Susan slowly repeats.

"Right." said Katherine.

"SO, if she is pregnant, we have to keep her on earth for... How long?" inquires Susan, realizing she has no idea how fast norns age on earth. Katherine looked to Blip.

"According to my calculations, around... 12 earth hours." Blip spat out.

"Oh my gosh... It's one in the afternoon now!" said Susan, placing her head on the doorframe.

Jenna, having no idea what was going on just yet, went up to Susan. "Bibble" she said. She could tell Susan wasn't happy, and wanted her to feel better. She gave Susan a big tickle.

"Jenna yes" sighed Blip. Jenna giggled.

Katherine thought a minute. "We really don't know if she's pregnant or not." she said. "SO, if she's not, we're home free. We just need to employ a simple 'lab test' on Jenna. You stay up here, get Jack back to Albia, and take some notes on the grendel or something. Blip and I will go back to the lab and employ some... tests." Susan knew not to ask to follow, because the lab was a "secret", and no one becides Katherine, Blip, & Jenna had seen or been alowed in.

Katherine and Blip and managed to get Jenna downstairs, and in the lab. Katherine, once in her lab, dug in a medicine cabnet and found a special pill. She handed it to Jenna and told her to "push plant". Jenna looked at the pill. It wasn't like any other plant SHE ever saw, but she knew if she diddn't follow Hand's directions, she would get a good smack. She downed it, and instantly fell asleep.

The partners imediatly started into using their lab talk. "Patient under. Prepare for exploritory procedures." Said Katherine, picking up Jenna and laying her on a nearby table. On the table were some cables. "Blip, you ready?" Asked Katherine.

"I don't think I'll ever be..." replied Blip. But it was too late. Katherine was hooking the cables into Blip. Then, she connected the end of the cables, which had special electrodes, to Jenna.

"Katherine," Blip interrupted, "Why do we do it this way?"

"Think of it this way: Jenna was once computer code, just a bunch of 0's & 1's." Explained Katherine. "Now, MOST of her is flesh, but still, some parts remain 0's & 1's, like a good part of the reproductive system. You, my dear friend, can decode those 0's & 1's, and tell us what we want to know. There's reasons your initials stand for Binary Linear Intersystem Platform. Now, Data communtications link established?"

"I don't think I can handle this..." stammered Blip.

"Are you hooked up or not?" Katherine demanted, slipping out of her lab talk.

"Yeah... I guess..." Blip answered.

"Then, read me the Female Hormone Levels." Katherine asked.

"Estrogen, 0, Sex drive, 10, Gonatrophin, 255, Progesterone 20, Fetus present." Blip said, trying very hard to sound professional.

"Excellant, we get a positive readout." Katherine sarcasticly said. "Now, I'll take these cables out, and hook you to her during the entire pregnancy."

"No, NO, PLEASE..." pleaded Blip.

"I'll hook you to her Ear, don't worry." Sighed Katherine, fixing an Electrode to the inner part of Jenna's Ear. Jenna began to stirr. Katherine, looking at the situation carefuly said, "Let's carry her upstairs before she wakes up." And with that, she did.

Susan met them at the stairs. "What are the results?" She asked.

"Care to ask your mom if you can spend the night? It'l be a long one." Katherine said, with a limp Jenna over her sholder. "Gosh, these things are as bad as sleeping cats..."

"Positive? Are you sure?" Said an awestruck Susan.

"I'm NOT double checking." Snarled Blip.

"I'll go call my mom." sighed Susan.

It was 1:03 am. Blip was plugged into the wall. Katherine and Susan were watching Jenna. Jenna was looking at her tummy. It had grown very big within the last few hours, and she wasn't quite sure why.

"Why does her tummy grow here, but not in Albia?" Asked Susan.

"Didn't have the sprites, I guess." replied a groggy Katherine.

"This makes me glad I don't need sleep, just recharging." sniedly commented Blip.

"Shut up, Robot Boy." snarled Susan. She was in no mood for this.

"I don't understand! It should have been born by now! Hey, Blip... think we could just take her down to the lab and have you check for..." Asked Katherine.

"NO. I've had enough sex education for one day, thank you very much." replied Blip.

All of a sudden, Jenna bent down. A funny feeling was comming over her. It diddn't hurt, but it sure felt bad. What was going on?

Lucky for Jenna, Katherine knew exactly what was going on. "Oh my GOSH..." shouted Katherine, who was now wide awake.

"It's comming! Jenna's finaly gonna have the egg!"
