>look around
Vogon Hold
This is a squalid room filled with grubby mattresses, unwashed cups, and unidentifiable bits of smelly alien underwear. A door lies to port, and an airlock lies to starboard.
There is a satchel here.
Ford is in the corner, snoring loudly.
Along one wall is a tall dispensing machine.
In the corner is a glass case with a switch and a keyboard.
It looks like the glass case contains:
an atomic vector plotter

That's easy for you to say since you don't even have the satchel.

>activate tall dispensing machine
You can't turn that on.

>Grab satchel
Taken.

>put junk mail in satchel
Inspection reveals that the satchel isn't open.

An announcement is coming over the ship's intercom. "Ekonfiml mp wimbr girbx jw culp ofudd tefto soshorki si sfudzit oirbeftoshzitl mchotruimbi sosh oo tthau na rkontoyimbi le ha b oefti lcavi simbzitollgryimbz z ocavp wquifimollu ne hirbkwaerl okwai lfimtoytruerlimbimba ro t oi szitimbkonimbquivupfudkonirb oollcavkwaa rtoyollcava bimbeft oi ss ga boshe he hulpo sorktha."

>Inspect tall dispensing machine
The dispenser is tall, has a button at around eye-level, and says "Babel Fish" in large letters. Anything dispensed would probably come out the slot at around knee-level. It bears a small label which reads "Another fine product of the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation."

Vogon Hold Score: 33 Turns: 52

>smell
(darkness)
It does smell a bit. There's something pungent being waved under your nose. Your head begins to clear. You can make out a shadow moving in the dark.

>examine shadow
The shadow is vaguely Ford Prefect-shaped.

Vogon Hold
This is a squalid room filled with grubby mattresses, unwashed cups, and unidentifiable bits of smelly alien underwear. A door lies to port, and an airlock lies to starboard.
Along one wall is a tall dispensing machine.
In the corner is a glass case with a switch and a keyboard.
It looks like the glass case contains:
an atomic vector plotter

Ford removes the bottle of Santraginean Mineral Water which he's been waving under your nose. He tells you that you are aboard a Vogon spaceship, and gives you some peanuts.

Ford says, "Hey, Arthur, keep your hands off my satchel!"

>Open satchel
You can't. It's not yours. It's Ford's and it's private.

You begin to feel distinctly groggy.

>put junk mail into satchel
Inspection reveals that the satchel isn't open.

You begin to feel indistinctly groggy.

You feel stronger as the peanuts replace some of the protein you lost in the matter transference beam.

>Press button on dispenser
That sentence isn't one I recognise.

>press dispenser button
A single babel fish shoots out of the slot. It sails across the room and through a small hole in the wall, just under a metal hook.

Ford yawns. "Matter transference always tires me out. I'm going to take a nap." He places something on top of his satchel. "If you have any questions, here's The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" (Footnote 14). Ford lowers his voice to a whisper. "I'm not supposed to tell you this, but you'll never be able to finish the game without consulting the Guide about lots of stuff." As he curls up in a corner and begins snoring, you pick up The Hitchhiker's Guide.
