Okay, let's try insane then. I'm making first contact. I'm about to hear the music of the spheres. Mr. Pang's boogeyman is an agent of alien forces about to whisking the whole ship off to some etherial nirvana on the other side of a black hole.

Electric ghosts wouldn't be worth waking the captain. Dozens might, but not the first few. It was when switch, camera, and fuse failures started spreading from aft field dynamics that he required human confirmation. Ekaatma woke Tambe. Tambe ordered manual degaussing. Ekaatma woke the engineer. Tambe went back to sleep. Standard protocol.
