 Once the non-humanoid races heard rumors of the ship, they too began pushing for its construction.  The ship was finally completed in 2334.  It was built in a hurry and largely out of spare parts, and the betting was 10-1 against it successfully completing its first mission in some quarters.
+The name "Trouble" is a curruption of the Shzhet word "Trghbo" which means something akin to "smooth sailing." Someone (among the many) who couldn't pronounce it said "Here comes Trouble!" and the name stuck.

 {{ship:bridgenew.jpg|the Bridge during downtime}} **Deck A** contains the bridge, the Captain's ready room, environmental controls for the bridge itself, a replicator room which has been turned into a pub of sorts, a single-person transporter and various other oddments. The bridge contains the usual stations, all of which can be individually configured for the various persons using them. The turbolift has been decorated as a Tardis, "for luck."  One of the stations is reserved for Rosie the Robot, the crew's "Tea Lady," who keeps everyone supplied with their own version of tea and scones, and sometimes pizza.
 {{ ship:corridor.jpg?300|Outside the Ready Room}} Outside the Ready Room, the captain keeps a potted palm tree, on the idea that if ever the potted palm is thrown overboard, the crew has decided to be done with her. A sign on the door reads, "Lasciate omne sperante, voi ch'intrate," or "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here."

 **Deck E** is concerned with life support systems, emergency equipment, a small docking bay, emergency engines, and equipment needed for keeping meteoroids from hitting the ship.

+==== Bridge ====
+{{ ship:bridge.jpg?600|the Bridge in its usual configuration}}While much of the //Trouble's// workspaces are small and fairly cramped (as well as made from extra or experimental parts), the Bridge is completely new and meant as an example for other ships of the //Trouble's// size.
+Cats and other pets are welcome on the Bridge, so long as their caretakers take care of them. Facilities such as food, water and litter boxes are provided for them.  A long-haired calico named Sumiko is almost always to be found on the bridge. Food is also welcome on the bridge provided it's cleaned up afterward.
+While it still takes time to get from place A to place B even at Warp 9, Alpha Watch plays Dungeons and Dragons to pass that time.

+==== Deck B Cafeteria ====
+{{ ship:cafeteria.jpg?600|the Deck B Cafeteria}} The Deck B Cafeteria features a [[https://nathansfamous.com|Nathan's Famous]] franchise, alongside a full-time chef. A hot-dog eating contest idea is occasionally floated there, but none has so far taken place.
+It is a cozy place where, as in [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice%27s_Restaurant|Alice's Restaurant]], you can get anything you want. While the preferred place for making clandestine plans is the Deck D cafeteria (Deck Decaf) because it is considered to have the best coffee, Deck B is a better place for a general shmooze.
+The Deck B Cafeteria is also home of a monopoly game that has been going on amongst various members of the crew for about ten years and spanning at least three different starships.
+----
+==== Engineering ====
+{{ ship:engineeringempty.jpg?600|Engineering}}The engineering area in the Nacelle section is the typical Star Fleet Standard, but a much cozier area, from which everything can be controlled anyway, is included on Deck E. Its main features, aside from what is considered to be the very best coffee-maker on the entire ship, is a box marked, "In Case Of Emergency, Break Glass," which contains three slide rules.
+This area also contains an airlock, and a number of devices belonging to [[singh|Jaskeerat Singh,]] the purpose of which is anyone's guess.
+----
+==== Sickbay ====
+{{ ship:sickbay.jpg?600|Sickbay resting room}} One might thing the one truly modern area of the //Trouble// would have been Sickbay, but one would be wrong.  Sickbay was deliberately made bare-bones, on the "you want better, you can pay for it yourself" idea.  Chief Medical Officer [[ratty|Dr. Opp "Ratty" Ji]] did indeed make a number of modifications herself. Most of these are not usually in evidence, as Ratty prefers the "surgically clean" look for the whole place.
+----
+==== The Brig ====
+{{ ship:argumentclinic.jpg?600|The Brig}}The Brig, usually just a storage closet, has a bed, a cupboard, and a TV that only plays reruns of //Candid Camera// with Alan Funt on infinite loop, and very loudly.
