Why is Worf in Engineering anyway?

So i know this is just a joke, but I imagine the simulation limits one's options to those present in the room. If she wants to send someone more likely to survive, like Data, there would be a roadblock:

  • Not enough time to get there from the bridge
  • Site to site transporter is down
  • Spot ate Data's communicator badge
  • Data is commanding the saucer section in another sector
  • Data is on Risa hooking up with Sela

Something limits the options to those in the room. Georgi is the most qualified, and time is short

Oh, absolutely. There are good reasons why that wouldn't be an option.

But those would get in the way of the joke, so I'm choosing to ignore them.

A most excellent choice I may add.

Well, those points weren't in the room, so you can't use them anyway.
