Drink on the house

Dren arrives at Parrotts 2000 after talking to Smegg. Of course Dren did all
the talking, Smegg just stared at him. Come to think of it the captain had
the same response to him. Maybe Dren wasn't a people person. Maybe it was
because he hadn't shaved, showered, or brushed his teeth since coming out of
stasis. He'd have to ask Bell about that. Dren saw Bell sitting at the bar.
"Dirk! What's up? Hey, Does my breath smell?" Dren yelled across the bar.
Just then Sweeble and his robot crashed through the wall, slammed into Bell
and the three of them took off. "A simple yes would have sufficed." Dren said
as he decided he probably should clean up before Robot Wars. But that was
days away, just a few drinks and then he's head back to the room. Dren sat
down where Dirk had been.
"Bell didn't pay for his last drink." the barkeep said.
"Put it on my Tab." Bell replied.
"You havn't got a tab."
"I do now. By the way, Barkeep, how come nobody ever seems to do any work
around here? Don't we have a mission? What does a third technitian do? Can I
have my own room." Dren asked. The barkeeper just looked blankly at him.
