So, I'm on some sort of space station/ship thing and the person apparently in charge (commander?) is relating to me the procedures for entering the escape pod in case of emergency. So I go about my business which apparently meant tending to some pseudo-monkey creatures that were teaching some plebes to properly operate video screens. The 'commander' (who I now recognize as Martin Landau )comes up to me and explains there is going to be an escape drill. It seems like you need to don your 'jump suit' to enter the pod or you were left behind. It was just a drill so many of my crewmates were lackadaisical about retrieving their suits. Somebody was exclaiming during the commotion of alarms and lights that their suit was missing and failed to gain entry into the pod and was left behind. There was a simulated pod ejection as we watched the ship/station engulfed in some explosion. Upon exiting the pod, it seemed that the 'monkeys' were gone and replaced by some 'reptilian' beings that acted like they were there all along so nobody took notice. Somehow the 'commander' was replaced by Water Koenig and during a macaroni lunch the alarm goes off again! It was not a drill. I rush to my bunk to fetch my jumpsuit and this little man is there claiming it was his jumpsuit. Being three sizes smaller than me, I confronted him and grabbed it from his hands, quickly put it on and headed for the pod. Upon arrival I find the pod full (which I find weird). A moment passes and an elderly gentleman and his companion volunteer to stay behind and give me their spot. I get in (this is where it gets weird) it ejects away from wherever and now I'm alone in the pod. There were crackers, cheese, chips, dips and chili in this pod. Which I found strange. After an undetermined time, there was an apparent landing of sorts and the doors open. I exit the pod into a huge mall with my wife nagging "Where the hell have you been?". It seems we had a little shopping to do to get my daughter ready for her 'pod'.
We purchased some supplies and I gave her some of my leftover 'spacecoins' kissed her and the phone rang. I woke up.
