"Well, what about staging one in the halodeck? We may be able to accomplish the main goal of showing the Felinids that the Federation is not what they have been told, and yet not risk a fight... Naturally, Admiral Kitanya would need to bless the idea. Comments, recommendations..."
"It might worrrk," said Tr'Lawsh, "but they would know it was falssse. Holodecksss prrrovide beingsss you can touch, hearrr, and sssee, but everrry one of them would know it wasss falssse becaussse the sssmellss would be absssent orrr wrrong. They might feel they werrre being decieved. We can ussse the holodeck forrr humansss - we could prrrogrram in ssimple sssmellss, and prrrobably fool them. But they would sssee a Caitian and know the sssmell wasss wrrrong, orr the subtle body language that isss sso much of ourrr communication. Unlesss yourrr holodecksss arrre morrre advanced than I know, they might asssume thisss wasss jussst a way to trrrick them."
