Why are there no toilets on the starship 'Exciting Undertaking'?
DISCLAIMER: Any resemblance to other starships (living or dead) is purely coincidental.
The starship 'Exciting Undertaking' is a brand new ship about to set off on a five and a bit year mission to explore mostly new lands and go where only a couple of people have gone before. As space is boring, it has wrap capability (no, not warp, wrap), and to relieve some of the mundanity of existence it also has Duplicators (like replicators but completely different) and Translocation technology (which moves people from place to place by overloading the Plot Buffers).
The one thing it needs, oh noble starship designer, is a method to avoid any main cast crew member needing to leave for a bathroom break.
As many suggestions as possible are needed to make sure that there are multiple redundant systems in case something new needs to break in an entertaining and mildly perilous manner.
