Captain's log stardate 45652.1
I've been invited to the annual Star Fleet Admiral's Banquet
Captain, incoming message from Adermiral Nakamura
That call was probably initiated over a thousand years ago
Oh?
On screen
Admiral
Captain. We were expecting you this morning
Is there a problem?
Mute
No sir please don't touch that
Coolant leak
Bridge we have a coolant leak in engine core I can't shut it down
Sealing doors to core chamber
Come on now lets move it people move it
Actually we have been experiencing a few minor difficulties with our new warp core
You're not trying to avoid this particular engagement are you Picard?
No no certainly not
I'm really looking forward to it
Good
I'll expect you soon
Nakamura out
I think he's on to you sir
Mmmm
LaForge to bridge
Go ahead Geordi
We've just started it up captain
All systems are holding steady
Ready when you are sir
Damn you
Mr.Crusher how long would it us to get there?
At warp 7... 34 minutes
Mmmm
What?
You're staring at me
Mr.Crusher make it so
Sir?
Set course from the admiral's banquet 500kph
Aye sir
Thank you Ensign
Engage
Aye Sir
What is our ETA?
At our present speed approximately nine billion years
We may be a little late but we'll be there sir
That's fun
Ugh, damn
Admiral I can explain
Let me guess your new warp core is malfunctioning again
Unfortunately it has affected our gravitation systems
At the moment our new warp core is floating about the ship
Are you expecting to have this problem fixed soon?
Or shall we send out a tow ship to bring you in?
That will not be necessary
I have every confidence in my engineering staff
I will be at the banquet on time
Picard out
Sucker
He's been sitting behind that desk too long
Picard
Oh no
Mr.Data I don't know if you've had a chance to meet our host
Commander Hutchinson call me Hutch
Lieutenant Commander Data our second officer
I was serving on Admiral Mitchels staff at star base 97
Awful place by the way
Cold. Muddy. The crew without a soul
If you can imagine that
Mating with Captain Edwell was a pleasure
I can well imagine
He reminds me of another officer I knew years ago
Captain Picard
Amazing man
But are you aware Picard is one of seven known captains
with no hair whatsoever
Really? Oh no that's fascinating
They're still at it
non-stop
I have to admit it has a certain strange fascination
How long can two people talk about nothing?
Precisely
Geordi
What happened to the captain?
Oh he went back to the ship to get his saddle
His saddle?
I bet he's ten light-years from here already
Lucky him
I would not like to become a permanent resident of this planet
I need you to get to that computer panel
and stop that ship somehow
I will try sir
Data to Captain Picard, do you read me sir?
You're very smart Jean-Luc
You're damned right
They'll never think to loof for you this far away
Mmm Hmm
Do we stay out here years? Decades?
The banquet will be completely over by then
I know...
Why don't I take you back
Q I do not believe even you are capable of such an act
I assure you I can
Noooo!
Oh that must be Commander Riker
That is not who I am
Excuse me
You having a good laugh now Q?
Your food is getting cold captain
Please tell me this is one of your illusions
