You're not the only one with tribbles invading your workspace, Mr. Sulu.

Well, if there's anything you need from me, don't hesitate to ask. I think I might be a bit responsible for the inundation, considering we left behind a bag of chips ourselves during the hunt...

Excellent! I'll definitely need backup in case something goes horribly wrong they try to escape. I hope cooing furballs didn't make your list of fears.
