And the redshirts are a blueshirt and a yellowshirt. That makes a change. Hope they survive!

They're all the same anyway. Kirk investigates something, Spock tries to get him to see sense, McCoy grumbles, Nurse Chappel sighs a lot and the crew member with no name dies.

You may recall it when the cornetto appears. It's a classic ep


Don't recall a cornetto - but perhaps when I see it . . .

Careful now. The same can be said for B7 repeated tropes

Don't I know it! At least Servalan isn't guilty of repeating herself. She always has new ideas for how she's going to win.

I don't remember the cornetto either. Is it a big orange swirly cornetto in space?

William Windom is brilliant as Decker.

Yes.

At least with Trek you get a sense of the distances they travel in

In B7 it's very inconsistent.

Cornetto time!

What did I miss? I had to go and see what the dog was barking about (answer: nothing, as usual).

I remember it now! But it looks more like a hollow log than a cornetto.
 
AnneArthur
It is actually very like the whale probe in the fourth film.
 
M1795537OCVirn
Ah, the cornetto! What flavour do you think it is?

Possibly the burnt-out carcass of a Worm from Arrakis?

Brimstone and wormwood?

Ginger and lemon curd

That would work.
 
M1795537OCVirn
Random chance? Surely chance is, by nature, random??

Quite the depleted cast.

Why can't Decker take over from Jim every week? He's great. Wrong, but a lot more likeable than Mr Do-gooder.

I don't think he's had the interview yet. Still in cadet college.

I think being so wrong might be a large downside.

Plus the Enterprise would be dead after 1 episode...

How does Spock know these things? Sensor readings didn't show anything, yet he instantly 'feels' the tractor beam. Is he telepathic?
Why do tractors do this, anyway? Why don't they just stay on their farms?
