Movie night

Trip had been looking forward to this all day. On this Enterprise he could have held movie night in one of the crew lounges, but with the holodeck he could make a proper movie theater. He'd made it a small one, to begin with, so the first people arriving wouldn't be intimidated by the amount of space. But he'd set the parameters to add more seats once most of them were full.

The food had been easier when it had been chef's job and it only had to be available in the mess hall. But Trip had strong-armed some Engineering Ensigns to bring along the snacks and beverages. It was all on a table at the back of the theatre, where people would have to pass it on their way in. There was plenty of popcorn, in boxes, so people could take it to their seats. There was candy too, and ice cream in containers that kept it cold. To drink, there were soft drinks and he'd also brought along some synthehol. All of the comforts of home, in a holodeck.

For the first film of the new movie night, he'd chosen a classic: Casablanca.

He'd been telling everyone about movie night, and asking them to tell their friends. By now the whole ship should know and hopefully he'd get a good turnout.
