Mission: Cleaning Up
Location: Mac and Scott's quaters

Mac was sitting in their quarters look through rosters when Scott had entered. She looked like she wants to leave the ship. Command was not what Mac had wanted to do. The captain had faith in her, even if she did not have any belief in herself. She was looking over the rosters for the ship. Mac had not heard Scott come over to her and hugged her.

"I don't belong here." She said.

Scott looked at her "You belong here because I want you here."

"I belong in Engineering, not the Bridge. Yet here I am the Executive Officer aboard the ship I built plus there are issues I don't want to go into." Mac sighed.

Scott massaged Mac's shoulders as music played in the background "A whole New World."

Mack just shrugged her shoulders. She moved to the sofa and fell asleep.
