Lt (No, Lt. Cmdr. now!) Smegg: "How many a's in ar(a)cade?"

Vega 22 Battlestation
Shortly after docking
"Boring," said Lt. Cmdr. Smegg.
"Yeah, if we didn't know better I'd say this was a shopping mall not a
high-tech defense starbase," Ensign Kayn replied.
"Because they won't let us into the top-secret weapons development areas.
Those I'd like to see." His mouth watered.
"Or the latest subspace radios and fighter designs."
They noticed a roped-off clearing in the midst of the crowd of base crew
and other spacers. In the middle was a hologram announcing various
places, events, and things in general on board the station.
"Senior officers meeting at 1900 hours in the Kennedy Room," the hologram
announced. "Weapons engineers involved in 'Project New Haven', go to deck
42 section C immediately, there is an emergency. New crew members, please
remember to visit our brand-new arcade, just past the McKFC
foodcombostop."
"Let's try the arcade," Kayn suggested.
"Good idea, hope they have 'Marvel vs. Capcom' there... Nah, fat chance,"
Smegg said.
They approached the arcade.
"ARACADE" the sign read.
"Looks like someone's gonna get fired in the sign-plasing department,"
Smegg commented.
"No, that's actually an archaic spelling," Kayn explained. "But where are
the games?"
"I dunno. All I see in there are a bunch of arches. Like some sort of
museum of architecture."
"What a ripoff."
