Lifeboat
Also known as Dark Inferno.
DISASTER!
The passengers were the usual varied lot, some nervous, some boisterous, some smart-aleck, some quiet.
The ship's Medical Officer was brand new and didn't anticipate having to do much more than take care of a few queasy stomachs and bruises among his charges - from learning how to handle weightlessness...
It was a routine trip.
And so was the safety drill.
Until the disaster call went out.
