Ford opens the hatch to the EVA pod -- Apple, as Trillian insists her name is -- and lets Arthur and Truman go in first. He follows them in and seals the door.

"So, whaddya think, Truman? First actual spaceship. How is it?"

Truman gave a whoop of delight, and peered at everything excitedly.

"This is great. Really hoopy, frood," he was beaming so widely that his head looked ready to split in half again. Heck, he was almost bouncing with excitement.

He turned to face them again, "So when can we take off?"

"Soon as I get to the controls," Ford replies with a grin.

He sits down in the pilot's chair and straps in. "Hitchhiker offices, Trintranix Five, present day according to my personal timestream.

"Okay, strap in you two, and we're off and running."

He smiles at Truman's enthusiasm as he buckles his safety belt.

"You're lucky. My first space flight wasn't nearly this pleasant."

"It's a space flight, how can it not be great?" Truman exulted cheerfully as he scrambled into a seat, and buckled himself in. He made sure it was one with a good view to watch the flight.

"What happened on your first one, then?" He asked with some curiosity.
