Hey, at least it shows I'm just making normal 
language errors when I rearrange a Klingon 
sentence and it comes out stupid. I'm certain if 
you read the chapter you can figure out who is playing games with whom.

Ha a you've just made me imagine that there are a 
bunch of people following the super-condensed 
version of the story, consisting only of the 
chapter summaries. Just for that, I will now make 
the so-called summaries wander off the main story 
and tell an entirely different one. :-)
