"Hmm," said Jon. "I wonder exactly what it can make. Replomat! Make me a girl!"
"Jon!" yelled Karyn. "If you say that it's going to turn you into..."
"Nonsense. They wouldn't make a machine that dangerous."
"Well, even it works I don't think that's a good idea. I mean..."
At this point the Replomat interrupted saying "Function locked."
"Replomat, how about a blonde? The first blonde you have."
"Jon..." growled Karyn, who was blonde and right next to him. "Don't do that."
"Function locked," said the Replomat.
"It doesn't matter," said Jon. "It isn't working. I think it's going to need a wish to get it to work."
"Aside from the fact that I'm right here," said Karyn, "you can't just make people. First, it's impossible. Second, if you did, getting rid of them would be murder, so you'd have to keep them around forever."
"Remember the episode with the extra Riker?" asked Jon. "They did it on Star Trek. And we're just visiting this world. We can leave behind anything we want. Now, I need to figure out how to get this thing to work.... Replomat, make that a brunette."
"Function locked."
Jon sighed. "Maybe I should use a wish to figure this out. But I've been doing pretty good without one so far..."
