- In the beginning there was a void.....a dark, absolute void...a place of

- Episode 7
- ---------
-
- [The two guards push Scotty and Sulu into the detention cell]
-
- 1st Guard: "Now you two behave yourself"
-
- 2nd Guard: "Yeah...no funny business"
-
- [They switch on the invisible force barrier and walk off down the
- corridor]
-
- Scotty: "WHAT are we going to do now?!!"
-
- Sulu: "I dunno...we've got big probs....If we don't get out of here
- soon then we'll have no chance of stopping it all happening
- again....and I don't fancy another trip through that black hole."
-
- Spock: [who has just appeared in the corridor] "Your worries are over
- gentlemen"
-
- Scotty: "Spock!..how did you get off the bridge?"
-
- Spock: "I was inside the computer cabinet remember?..Well I heard all
- the commotion on the bridge...so I crawled through one of the
- ventilation ducts...which came out just along the corridor there....
- Incidentally, that duct is alive with tribbles...I thought we had
- eradicated them?"
-
- Scotty: "Aye....I thought I had beamed the whole kit and kaboodle over
- on to that Klingon starship.....but obviously some must have got
- away.........Anyway...can you get us out of here?"
-
- Spock: "Well it's a bit tricky...the force field will only come down
- if I enter the correct combination on the keypad.....Alternatively I
- could take a more brute force approach..." [producing a soldering
- iron, he proceeds to remove the force field control panel and re-wire
- its innards in a reasonably destructive manner..]
-
- Sulu: "Hurry Mr.Spock...I don't think we have much time..."
-
- Spock: "Almost there.......almost there...just one more b"
- [At that moment Spock suddenly dematerialises, with a bemused look on
- his face]
-
- Sulu: "Damn!....we're going to be too late!.....and the force field is
- still up..."
-
- [Scotty charges at the force barrier.....and BOINNNNNGGGG!..bounces
- off and hits the far wall of the cell...]
-
- Scotty: [Looking a bit dazed] "....it's no use...well never get ou..."
-
- [At that moment there is a huge explosion from the force field control
- panel which showers bits of invisible force barrier all over the cell
- and adjoining corridor...]
-
- Sulu: [spitting out fragments of force field] "wow!...I've never seen
- an invisible force barrier explode like THAT!...."
-
- Scotty: "Pretty impressive I must say....and eminently conceptual.."
-
- Sulu: "Anyway..let's go!....I want to stop off at my cabin round the
- corner first though..."
-
- Scotty: "Eh? .."
-
- [Sulu dashes into his cabin and emerges holding a bottle of vegetable
- oil and a fencing sword...]
-
- Scotty: "Ah!...I see...."
-
- [As they charge down the corridor Sulu discards his jersey and empties
- the contents of the bottle over himself......Two guards coming round
- the corner are so startled that the starfleet insignia drop off their
- jerseys in sheer surprise....and by mere reflex action their phasers
- are flicked to 'kill' and two lethal bolts are unleashed after the
- rapidly departing Sulu and Scotty...]
-
- Scotty: "..In the name o' the wee man!...that was CLOSE!"
-
- Sulu: "Too right!...keep running!"
-
- Scotty: "Wait a minute..!!...we passed that same corridor just a
- minute ago!..We must be going round in circles..."
-
- Sulu: "...Don't worry....I think it has something to do with the
- budget for the film set..."
-
- Scotty: "Ah!..ok..."
-
- Sulu: "There's the turbolift door up ahead!.."
-
- [They jump into the lift...]
-
- Scotty: "Bridge"
-
- Lift: "Bridge what?"
-
- Scotty: "Please!"
-
- Lift: "That's better....Now a few manners don't hurt do they?"
-
- Scotty: "Grrr...I wish these lifts came under my jurisdiction in the
- Engineering section...I'd soon FIX them..."
-
- Lift: "I heard that..."
-
- Sulu: "Are we at the Bridge level yet?"
-
- Lift: "Yes...You can get off now...and good riddance.."
-
- [The turbolift doors open and Scotty and Sulu step on to the Bridge]
-
- "SURPRISE!!!!!!": shouts everyone on the Bridge.
-
- Jim: [..wearing a party hat, steps forward and hands a present to Sulu
- and Scotty..] "Happy birthday!.."
-
- Scotty: "Why, you rotten..." [the grim look on his face slowly turning into
- a smile..]
-
- Jim: "Sorry about all the hassle we put you both through...but the only
- way we could keep you off the bridge while we prepared everything was to
- lock you up..."
-
- Sulu: "What about those aliens?...and how did you know Scotty and I had the
- same birthday?"
-
- Jim: "questions questions!!....come and enjoy the party...it IS for you
- after all....here, have a sausage roll....but PLEASE..put that sword away
- first!"
-
- [They all laugh jovially....and the party goes on into the night...which is
- a bit of a strange thing to say considering the ship is in deep space where
- day and night have no meaning...but I think you know what I mean..]
-
-
- *****A NEW ADVENTURE STARTS SOON!!! *****
-
- What were Scotty and Sulu's presents? What happened to the strange
- globular aliens?...How did Jim know that Scotty and Sulu had the same
- birthday?..DO they actually have the same birthday?..or was it just a
- cheap attempt at a coherent ending to a floundering episode?
-
- All these questions...and many more.. won't be answered in the next thrilling
- installment....
