Life at NetJets sucks - not really

[FLYLOW22]

Okay, so without looking it up, can you tell us the code to bring down the shields of the Reliant?

Well, duh! Everyone knows that Reliant, as a Miranda-Class Federation Starship, 16309 was the assigned prefix code.

"It's coming through now Kahn." ~Kirk

Beep (1) , beep (6) , beep (3), beep (0), beep (9), dinkdink....

"The SHIELDS are dropping!!" ~Yorkim

"Well RAISE THEM!! RAISE THEM!" ~Kahn

"Lock phasers on target!" ~Kirk

"The override!?! Where's the override!?!?" ~Kahn

"FIRE!!" ~Kirk

Bodies flying randomly through the air on Reliant

"You did it Sir!" ~Mr. Saavik

"I did NOTHING! ! simply got caught with my pants down. Now let's see how badly we've been hurt." ~Kirk

"GASP!!" ~Uhura (One of her best lines!)

Scotty standing in the turbo lift with the body of his terminally injured nephew. Apparently he made a wrong turn thinking the Bridge was Sick Bay.

Well played. I'd be willing to bet that the correct tones chimed in your brain as you typed. (That is assuming you could prevent it from leaving your lips simultaneously.)

I always think fondly of this scene, especially when certain middle-managers attempt to dilute the authority of the PIC:

KIRK: We tried it once your way, Khan, are you game for a rematch?

---- Static -----

KIRK: Khan . . . I'm laughing at the superior intellect.

DO NOT compare Star Trek with Star Wars. Star Trekkies are dorks, who had their names written in their underwear at camp.

Uh, have you seen some of these doorknobs running around in their renaissance-festival-like Jedi outfits since the last three films came out?

I'd say the playing field has nearly leveled.

Good lines, though, fellas....sounds like a good time.

"No Sir! You have genesis, blah blah blah." ~Yorkim

"FULL IMPULSE POWER!!! DAMN YOU!!!" ~Kahn

Heck, any overnight at the hotel in CMH will expose you to any number and type of convention.

A Trekkie convention would be a little more "normal" compared to some of the conventions I've seen going on there over the years.

Takes all types I guess. :nuts:

I always thought that was odd myself. Maybe he thought Dr. McCoy was there since he frequests the bridge for no apparent reason all the time. In the first movie, they actually cut to Dr. McCoy coming on the bridge. He stands there for about 30 seconds, has absolutely NO LINES, then leaves.
