* PREVIOUSLY ON MYSTERY SCHOOL THEATER 4000... *
Sisko: The Dominion won't attack Earth.
Admiral: How can you be sure?
Sisko: Because Earth isn't the key to the Alpha Quadrant. The wormhole is.
And whoever controls Deep Space 9 controls the wormhole.
[SCENE CUT!]
O'Brien: Target locked.
Dax: Fire!
*KABOOM!*
[SCENE CUT!]
Kira: Execute Rom?
Weyoun: He's committed an act of terrorism against the Dominion.
[SCENE CUT!]
Rom: You've got to finish what I started. The fate of the entire Alpha
Quadrant rests in your hands.
Quark: What happens if I get caught?
[SCENE CUT!]
Ross: If those Dominion reinforcements come through the wormhole,
we'll have lost everything.
Sisko: We can take the ships we have, we can fight our way to Deep
Space 9 and destroy the anti-graviton emitter. It's our only
hope.
[SCENE CUT!]
Kira: Dukat is bringing down the minefield, the Federation is about
to be overrun by the Dominion reinforcements, and Weyoun has
ordered Rom's execution!
Odo: I'm sorry.
Kira: We are way, _way_ past sorry.
[SCENE CUT!]
O'Brien: It's a large Dominion fleet. 1,254 ships.
Bashir: They outnumber us 2 to 1...
Sisko: There's an old saying. . . "Fortune favors the bold." Well.... I
guess we're about to find out.

Misting By Darth Kirby
Episode #I008
* Legal Stuff *
MiSTing was done without the author's permission, since there really
was no author, per se. Anyway, Star Trek and all of it spin offs (good
or bad) belong to Paramount Pictures. Bryan Fuller belongs to who
ever wants him. Adam Colorado Coatcheck belongs to me, but is
available for parties, bar mitzvahs, and Easter baskets. Speaking of
what belongs to *me*, MST4k is mine. Not that I won't share, of
course. Just ask. E-mail me at dannystar@switchboardmail.com

(And enter the land of imagination...)
In the not too distant future,
2001 AD,
There was a guy named Joel,
Sappy as he could be!
He went to school at Normal West,
Always working real hard to try his best
But, in class, he used to snore!
So his teachers put him on the third floor!
(Joel: Never give up, never surrender!!!)
"We'll send him crappy fanfics,
"The worst we can find.
(La la la)
"He'll have to sit and read them all and we'll monitor his mind!"
(La la la)
Now keep in mind Joel can't control where the fanfics begin or end!
He'll have to keep his sanity with the help of his robot friends!
(Robot Roll Call)
Cambot! (Cut!)
Angela! (Like totally!)
Jim Carrey! (Score one for Ace!)
Yiiiiiiiing! (I hate Chicago!)
If you're wondering how he eats and prances,
And other science facts!
Just repeat to yourself it's just a fic,
And you should really just relax!
For Mystery School Theater 4000!
(twang)
[3rd Floor: Joel and Ying are snickering evilly as we open up. Joel
has curly black hair and wears a green jumpsuit. Ying is a sock
puppet with two large eyes, whose torso disappears behind the table.]
Joel: He he. Welcome, everyone, to the 3rd Floor on Normal West
High School. I'm the resident host and/or main character, and this
is my pal, Ying.
Ying: Hey.
Joel: Yes, well it seems that last week, Mr. Nelson-
Ying: One of the mad Mads.
Joel: -sent us up our local snotty, fashionable suck-up to try and boost
the ratings.
Ying: A la Star Trek: Voyager!
Joel: Speaking of which, we're trapped half way between parts of an
EVIL, EVIL chat with one of their writers, one Bryan Fuller.
Ying: Although it still beats being trapped between sleep and awareness.
Joel: Good one.
Ying: I try.
Joel: Well, in leau of that, we were also introduced to our new, recurring
plot thread--
Ying: The Dominion!
Joel: You don't need to do that with every sentence.
Ying: Sorry.
Joel: You should be. Anyway, the Dominion come from the other side of
this hole we found--
Ying: Which I named "The Plot Hole."
Joel: Exactly. So they came through the Plot Hole, killed Gypsy, rest her
soul, and have been busy being menacing for the last week.
Menacing as in Star Wars: Episode I menacing.
Ying: Nothing's happened.
Joel: Exactly. So we're stuck here in anticipation of Part II. Jim is "out
of commission" temporarily, while we have our new maintenance
person, Angela Hevrin.
Ying: She's Mr. Nelson's equivalent to 7 of 9.
Joel: Only with Abercrombie and Finch and smaller breasts.
Angela [Off screen]: Hey!
Joel: Speaking of the devil...
[Angela walks on. She has long albino hair, wears tight/form fitting
clothing, and Old Navy jeans]
Angela: I do not have small breasts, you perv!
Joel: I disagree. I'll even prove it! Where's my ruler...
Angela: God, Gentes! You've been trapped up here for so long that
you've lost all sense! You've lost touch with the outside
world! You're beginning to act like Danny Kirby!
[Suddenly she's hit by a huge clown hammer]
Angela: OW!
Joel: Watch the fourth wall jokes.
Angela: Fourth... wall? Joel, you've lost it. I'm going to go and use
the bathroom. [She looks around] Where's the bathroom
again?
Joel [Chuckles some more]: In there.
[Cambot pans over to the right four feet. There's a door that's
slightly ajar with a bucket of water
leaning on it. Joel and Ying cackle, but Angela notices this
immediately]
Joel: Watch out. It might be a little... 'moist' in there. He he!
Angela [Thinking furiously]: Really. Then why don't you go in there
first?
Joel: Oh. Okay.
[She stands back as he opens the door. The bucket remains totally
balanced. He opens it wide. Angela is amazed and begins to follow
him into the bathroom when he slams the door, knocking the bucket
off, causing it to land right on her head. Ying busts a lung]
Angela: JOEL!!!
[Joel opens the door slightly. She grabs him by the neck, throws
him out of the room, and runs into the bathroom, cursing all the way]
Ying: Good one, Joel.
Joel: Actually, I just wanted to see her in a wet T-shirt.
Ying: Hm. She's right. You _are_ acting like Danny.
[Ying is hit by a giant clown hammer; the Mad light begins to flash]
Joel: Tsk, tsk. Perversion is the last refuse of the desperate. Ain't
that right, Mr. N?
[Room 209: Mr. Nelson is eating a bag of Sour Cream & Onion Potato
Chips. The crumbs get stuck in his goatee and mustache. Mr.
Meyer's back can be seen behind Mr. Nelson's desk.]
Mr. Nelson: Well, Gentes, I don't know. I'm not that perverted. Meyer!
What are you doing down there!
Mr. Meyer [Without getting up]: I'm looking for my pencil.
Mr. Nelson: Nasty, Meyer! Nasty!
[3rd Floor]
Joel [worriedly]: Uhh... right. I'll try and stop.
[Room 209]
Mr. Nelson: Good man.
Mr. Meyer [stands up and checks his pocket]: Great. Now I've lost
my balls.
Mr. Nelson: Your fic this week, Joel, is part two of that chat with
Bryan-- what did you say, Meyer?
Mr. Meyer: I lost my stress balls. I usually keep them in my pocket,
so, if I get stressed out, I can squeeze them and
relax.
Mr. Nelson: Okay, that's just asking for it.
[3rd Floor]
Joel: Hm. They're probably still bigger than Angela's boobs.
Angela: PERV!
[She begins to beat him over the head with a box; Fanfic sign
begins to flash]
Joel: Ow!
Ying: We've got Fanfic sign! Scramble!
Angela: Have fun, PERV!
[Cambot and co. enter the elevator]
* DING! *
[Fourth floor, bad fanfics galore!]
Joel: Talk about lucky. Why doesn't she get tortured, too?
Ying: Just think of this as "The Man Area"!
Joel: Nasty.
Ying: Where were we?
Joel: We are at Bryan Fuller insulting homosexuality and interesting
plot ideas.
> [22:27] <StevePerr> You've just created a whole line of Usenet fanfics with that >remark
Joel: *That* would explain Know Your Enemy.
Ying: Uh. . . no, it wouldn't.
Joel: Let's just say they were both created to inflict pain.
> [22:28] <BryanFuller> CopRock Voyager has been discussed.
Joel: But we instead decided to go with "The Rock" Voyager.
> But seriously, there >will be an emphasis on character-based episodes as indicated by the first round of >stories.//
Ying [Bryan]: We're sorry, but we have to say that to sound like writers. Really, the first round is an emphasis on breasts.
Joel: Don't make me turn you off, too. . .
> [22:29] <SteveKrutzler> From Boze65: Brannon Braga here -- his boss. I was just >wondering... WHY AREN'T YOU WORKING?
Joel [Bryan]: I'm working Nick, if that's what you-
Ying: JOEL!
Joel: Huh?
Ying: God, man, gain some respectability!
> [22:29] <BryanFuller> Nick made me do the chat. I swear.//
Joel: Among other things. . .
Ying: Joel, what did I just say???
> [22:30] <SteveKrutzler> Yes everyone...
> [22:30] <SteveKrutzler> that ACTUALLY WAS from Brannon, confirmed! hehe
Joel [Steve]: Executive producers are funny.
> [22:30] <BryanFuller> Busted.\
> [22:30] <SteveKrutzler> From edjolie: okay then... I know Ron Moore, of DS9 >fame, has expressed reservations about using any Intrepid class and/or Sovereign >class vessels in an episode. Why did Voyager get away with using two Defiant- >Class ships in the episode involving the Prometheus. It seems like another attempt >to spice up Voyager's poor ratings. (ie. Q and Voyager) No offense.
Joel [Bryan]: I plead the fifth.
><DilberTrek> :::Can smell the paper burning as Brannon tosses Bryan, Nick, and >Michael's checks into a fire::: :D
Ying: DilberTrek uses the cutest emoticons! ":D",":-D","<:-D",";D 8"
Joel: Ying. . .? What's that last one?
Ying: Oops. Must've slipped. . .
> [22:32] <BryanFuller> Actually, the fun of that episode was glimpsing the Alpha >Quadrant.
Ying: I remember that episode. "Message in a Bottle."
Joel: Yeah, I remember . It made no sense.
Ying: But, hey, at least Andy Dick was in it!
Joel: <shudder>
> The Defiant was sauce for the goose. Ratings are important,
Ying: Although this is hard to see on Voyager, where the overwhelming amounts of art and creativity pour onto the screen.
Joel: Hey, sarcasm is insulting, too.
>but that >particular story element was not an attempt at ratings.//
> [22:33] <SteveKrutzler> From TheLateGreatTellySavalas: How much as a writer >is your potential subject matter limited by what Paramount or UPN says? Where >does what the writer wants end and where the ratings push begins?
Ying: Well, after about nine months in the belly, the mommy begins to feel the ratings push, and has contractions. . .
> [22:35] <BryanFuller> Funny enough, Paramount, UPN, Brannon and all his >writers want the same thing.
Joel: Money?
Ying: No, of course not. They want inflatable pantsuits!
>Great Voyager stories. Sometimes there are >compromises, but rarely does a story that in teleplay get thrown out all together.
Joel [Bryan]: You see, we only reject scripts that either don't involved a contrived
Seven of Nine romance or try to deal with homosexuality in a thoughtful and poignant manner.
>Mortal Coil started out as a episode that the studio (and Rick Berman) had big >story problems with and we compromised, but ultimately came out with a better >episode.//
Ying [Bryan]: Then we sold the better episode to Babylon 5 and produced the crappy one for Voyager.
Joel: Yeah, Paramount had big problems with a show that dealt with religious imagery in the least
bit, so they complained and watered the show down, while Molly Shannon was given free reign
on _Superstar_!
Jim: Joel! I thought that movie was on our list of unmentionables!
Joel: Oops. Sorry.
> [22:36] <SteveKrutzler> Speaking *of*...
Joel [Steve]: The little man in my pants wants his lucky charms.
> [22:36] <SteveKrutzler> From Rafael Scholl: I loved "Mortal Coil," can you give >us some insight as to how/what went on in your mind when you helped with it?
Ying [Bryan]: On my head? Well. . . there was hair. . . some pizza. . . maybe a taco. . .
Joel [Steve]: How old are you again?
> [22:39] <BryanFuller> That story was really about faith. Being raised Catholic > (recovering, thank you)
[Stunned pause]
Joel: He's recovering from being a Catholic?
Ying: Wow, not to put down a fifth of the worlds population, but couldn't he have put that in better terms?
Joel: This chat must be his revenge for having to give up Babylon 5 for Lent.
Ying: He must not have heard the new slogan: "Catholicism. . . wow!"
> had a big influence on accepting things when there really >wasn't a tangible explantion for them. Neelix did that with the Great Forest and the >Guiding Tree. He ultimately found that his faith had to be internal and not based on >external belief systems that were imposed on him from an early age.//
Joel: Okay, I've never seen the episode, but now that I *know* it involves Neelix and a "Guiding Tree", I don't think I'm going to be seeing it any time soon.
> [22:40] <SteveKrutzler> From GregMaddux:
Ying: The pitcher?
Joel: It just doesn't feel. . . right.
> Were you much of a Trek watcher in >the past? If so, do you have any favorite episodes?
Ying [Bryan] I LOVED "Shades of Grey".
> [22:40] <BryanFuller> I'm a big Babylon 5 fan actually. I have parties.
Joel [Bryan]: We mousse our hair out like Centauri and recite the B5 Mantra!
> [22:40] <BryanFuller> Just kidding.
> [22:40] <StevePerr> No, NO Babylon5 allowed!
Ying: We can't let GOOD TV Sci-Fi intrude in a Voyager Chat!
> [22:41] <StevePerr> J/K
Joel: Equals the root of G.
Ying: This is getting boring. Restart Jim.
Joel: You know what he'll say. . .
Ying: Just do it. . .
Joel: In a sec. . .
> [22:41] <BryanFuller> Actually I loved Next Generation and DS9. Still do. It's >great television and has been a considerable influence on my career (obivously).
Joel: Those were his *only* influences?
Ying [Bryan]: When you say 'Spock', you're talking about a kind of fish, right?
><DilberTrek> Babylon 5? Oh Bryan, you got the job! (How will you tell Brannon >though? :>)
Ying: And how will you tell your parents?
Joel: What kind of emoticon *is* that?
Ying: Looks like Nixon.
Joel: Here we go. . . he's finished rebooting.
[Jim sits back up.]
Jim: Ow, my head. . .
> [22:43] <SteveKrutzler> From dracoa: Is there anything you can tell us regarding Lisa Klink's
> [22:43] <SteveKrutzler> departure and her replacement? What are your opinions?
Ying: She was released because she let Hogan escape at last.
Joel: Oh, that wacky Hogan and his heroes!
> [22:44] <BryanFuller> Lisa has done wonderfully since leaving the show. She's >completed two Hercules scripts and is working on a third.
Ying: _Hercules_, _Hercules and the Captive Women_, and _Hercules vs. The Moon Men_.
Joel: Don't go there.
[Pause]
Joel: Jim? You okay? You haven't said anything yet.
Jim: Jim? Who's this Jim?
Joel: Uh oh.
>As well as writing two >Batman comics.
Ying: You must have hit his personality switch.
Joel: Crud. Where is it?
[Begans to look up and down Jim]
> [22:44] <BryanFuller> Nick Sagan and Michael Taylor have been great additions >to the writing staff.//
Joel: I think he means that Nick has a great addition. . .
Ying: Just find the switch.
Jim: That tickles!
Ying: Isn't Michael Taylor in Duran Duran?
Joel: That's Andy Taylor. . .
> [22:44] <SteveKrutzler> From Johnny: Can you give us any tidbits about episodes >to come?
Ying: We've decided to up the ante that we began a year ago. Check out Chakotay's lunchbox, next ep- the fangirls will blow a lung.
Joel: Dang it! He seems to have hidden it?
Jim: He? Who's he?
Joel: Fine. Who are you?
Jim: Why, Carol Channing, of course.
> [22:45] <BryanFuller> Not really. Trust me when I say there's great Star Trek >ahead.//
Ying: Shit, we've entered _Red Zone Cuba_.
Jim: Watch your language young man!
Joel: I've almost got it. . .
><DilberTrek> How 'bout ep titles? ;)
Ying: "Round Globular Breasts" sounds cool and would draw in the fan boys.
Joel: "Captain Proton in the Triple D Cup!".
Jim: Perverts! Both of you! Let me out of this theater of filth!
Joel: And he says we're bad. . . at least we don't think we're Carol Channing!
> [22:46] <StevePerr> We go crazy for episode titles
Ying: Well, I go "Crazy in Alabama".
Joel: Hm. . . I'll have to override. Jim! Prepare to be boarded!
Jim: Stop it, perv! I'll start singing!
> [22:47] <SteveKrutzler> From LuvsDS9: Would it be possible to see a few episodes
> [22:47] <SteveKrutzler> where the Borg are actually an ally? I had my hopes
> [22:47] <SteveKrutzler> up during "Scorpion, part 2".
Ying: That's one of us. . .
> If not, then could we
> [22:47] <SteveKrutzler> at least hear the Borg admit that, if not for Voyager,
Joel: They would have remained a feared and respected enemy?
> [22:47] <SteveKrutzler> they could not have defeated Species 8472?
Ying + Joel: *hack, cough* Plot device! *cough* Pointless plot device! *hack*
Jim: You young people these days! So rude!
> [22:49] <BryanFuller> Actually we have a great episode coming up where the >Borg assimilate the CareBears and it changes the entire Collective.
Joel: Well, as they say, if you can't beat em'. . .
> [22:49] <BryanFuller> Just kidding.
> [22:49] <SteveKrutzler> lol
> [22:49] <BryanFuller> We want the Borg to remain powerful enemies.//
Joel: So you'll stop having Voyager defeat them every week?
Jim: Borg. Is that Swedish?
> [22:49] <StevePerr> Oh lord I had a childhood flashback
Ying: Stop smoking the Chakotay, dude!
>
> [22:49] <SteveKrutzler> A Whole Buncha People ;)
Joel: --make a 'pod'.
Ying: "Pod People"! Coming soon!
Joel: A little too late for that. . .
> : Will Q be returning this >season?
><DilberTrek> Steve... flashbacks usually mean MORE than 2 weeks ago :)
Joel: Hey! DilberTrek's become bitter!
Ying: Once sweet and nubile, now hard and embittered, DilberTrek rejects his chat moderator and begins to doubt the universe. . .
Joel: He was once so innocent. . .
Jim: Are you mad??
> [22:50] <BryanFuller> So far, no plans for Q's return, but when the right story >comes along...//
><DilberTrek> I say it's time to call up Shawn Piller again :D
Joel: Nick's getting tired.
> [22:50] <SteveKrutzler> From Mo: Is Neelix going to develop some kind
> [22:50] <SteveKrutzler> of purpose on Voyager next year?
Joel: Other than being the Jar Jar Binks of Star Trek?
> There have been
> [22:50] <SteveKrutzler> many episodes that show him in a security uniform
> [22:50] <SteveKrutzler> in alternate realities, etc. What about pushing
> [22:50] <SteveKrutzler> his character in that direction?
Ying: I could live with pushing him out an airlock. . .
> [22:51] <BryanFuller> We have Neelix referencing tactical training, but don't >expect him to replace Tuvok any time soon. I personally would love to see Neelix >in a stronger role on the ship, we're trying to work towards that.//
Joel: Tuvok? Who's Tuvok?
Ying: You know. A potentially interesting character ignored for lack of boobs or perversion.
> [22:52] <SteveKrutzler> From Cleopatra: Torres and the Doctor are my favorite
> [22:52] <SteveKrutzler> characters. Will there be a lot of character
Joel: --assassination for these two?
Ying: A Voyager specialty.
> [22:52] <SteveKrutzler> development for these two?
> [22:52] <BryanFuller> Definately. Torres has a great episode early next season, as >does the Doctor. You'll be pleased.//
Ying: I guarantee it!
Joel: This guy makes more promises than a Presidential candidate!
> [22:53] <SteveKrutzler> From edjolie: Will Voyager get the new First Contact >Uniforms? The EMH obviously saw them and retained knowlege of them.
> [22:54] <BryanFuller> Unfortunately, the Doctor isn't a tailor.
Joel: Although he seems to be a very adept barber.
Ying: Yeah, who else would redo Janeway's hair every week?
>We'll keep our DS9 >jumpsuits for a while yet. The First Contact uniforms are pretty cool, though.//
Joel [Bryan]: But it's the Seven of Nine cat suit I'm always caught in.
Jim: Perv!
[Starts to whack Joel with his purse]
> [22:54] <SteveKrutzler> From Stoph: If you had to end the show now, how would >you end it?
Ying: With Mike and the Bots in an apartment, riffing on "The Crawling Eye."
Joel: Ow! Ow! Ow!
> [22:55] <BryanFuller> Naomi Wildman wakes up and it's all a dream.
Ying: Ben Sisko joins the Prophets.
Joel: Ow! Sam Beckett continues to jump threw time to help others! Ow! Stop that!
Jim: Nasty young punks!
> [22:55] <BryanFuller> Just kidding.
> [22:55] <SteveKrutzler> :-)
Ying: You know, with a sense of humor like that, it's amazing Bryan *didn't* write "The Amazing Ferengi."
Joel: OW!
> [22:56] <BryanFuller> Seska and Suder step out of the Sonic Shower.
Ying: At least they didn't step out of Sonic the Hedgehog.
Joel: OW! OW! Got it! OW!
[Pause]
Jim: Whoa. Dude.
Joel: Crap, he's become Keanue Reeves.
Jim: No, no. I'm fine. Ouch.
Joel: You sure? Jim. Your name *is* Jim?
Jim: It is today.
><DilberTrek> roflmao!
Ying: Crap. I think DilberTrek went into a coma.
Jim: Poor little tyke, it was too much for him.
> [22:56] <BryanFuller> Just kidding again. That's a difficult question to answer. >I'm glad that's not my call to make.//
Joel: I make other kinds of *special* calls, mostly for Brannon. . .
> [22:57] <SteveKrutzler> From Solo: Voyager does 26 episodes a year, more than >most shows? Is that too much? Ever run out of ideas and wish: "If we only did 22 >shows..."?
Jim [Bryan]: Yes, especially when I'm exploiting the secret flaw.
> [22:57] <BryanFuller> Usually around episode 22 that thought becomes more and >more pervasive. Actually, I don't mind it so much. It's a push, but it's very >rewarding.//
Joel [Bryan]: We feel proud for making 26 boob-a-licous hours for you, the fans!
> [22:58] <SteveKrutzler> From SteveKrutzler: Do you have any thoughts on Star >Trek: Insurrection you'd like to and/or are able to share? title thoughts? (ST: I is the >new movie)
Joel: Star Trek: The Motion Picture is the new movie? I think I've entered a time warp. . .
Jim: He means 'I' as in the letter 'I', not the roman numeral... 'I'. See?
Joel: Oh. Well, I'm red in the face. . .
><DilberTrek> (Oh no ... here comes a plug from Steve for www.st- >insurrection.com ... )
> [22:59] <StevePerr> that's right, www.st-insurrection.com, just one click away...
Ying: Yes, with just one click, you've sold your soul to Paramount!
> [22:59] <BryanFuller> I really don't know much about the new movie. I've heard >the dailies are great and F. Murray Abraham is wonderful.//
Jim [Bryan]: However, if Paramount wasn't going to fire me for being truthful, I would say. . .
> [22:59] <SteveKrutzler> I didn't say *anything*, Dilber. :-)
Jim [Steve]: You bastard.
> [23:00] <SteveKrutzler> From Gorgias: Brannon says Voyager will be "sexier" >this year? Um... how's that going to work?
Joel [Bryan]: To put it simply: 9 1/2 Voyagers. Get it?
><DilberTrek> No, but *I* did. Where's my check?
Ying: At the bottom of the Hudson bay, where you and your concrete boots will soon be sent.
> [23:00] <BryanFuller> Heels and cat suits for everyone, like I said.
> [23:00] <SteveKrutzler> proven formula.
Joel [Steve]: It worked for Streisand. . .
> [23:00] <SteveKrutzler> ;-)
Jim [Steve]: Help! A comet flew into my left eye!
> [23:01] <BryanFuller> Sexier in terms of jazzy, unexpected, high-concept >adventure. Nothing R-rated, at least, not yet.//
Ying: Just wait for the seventh season. . .
> [23:01] <StevePerr> Darn
Jim [Steve]: I want to see a woman on TV nude. I'm getting sick of having to log onto www.danny.com every single day..
> [23:01] <SteveKrutzler> From George Webster:
Joel: Buy my dictionary!
> From the time Voyager was swept to
> [23:01] <SteveKrutzler> the Delta Quadrant to the present time, how far have
> [23:01] <SteveKrutzler> they been travelling, and how many light years or
Jim [Webster]: --kilometers, as it's called in Europe.
Joel: Why can't he just type this all in one line?
> [23:01] <SteveKrutzler> number of years do they have left to reach the Alpha >Quadrant?
> [23:03] <BryanFuller> Let's see... we know Kes propelled them 10,000 light years >closer, 7 of 9 and Kim shaved another 5,000 light years off their journey with the >Astrometrics lab...
Ying [Kim]: See, this is our path.
Jim [7 of 9]: We could go this way to shave off 5,000 light years.
Ying [Kim]: Oh. Cool.
Jim [7 of 9]: You're welcome. Now screw me.
Ying [Kim]: Well... uh... no.
Joel: Stop it! You gave away the plot to that entire episode!
> there's a couple of other leaps. I'd say we're somewhere between >50,000 and 60,000 light years away, which roughly translates to
Jim [Bryan]: --two seasons.
> 50-60 years or so >of maximum warp travel.//
> [23:04] <SteveKrutzler> From dracoa: What got you started in writing?
Joel [Bryan]: I dunno. All the fear and loathing in Las Vegas?
> Did you >always want to be a writer? Always want to write Trek? ;)
Ying: He's a mailman from Phoenix.
> [23:06] <BryanFuller> I went to USC film school and wanted to be a director, but >that quickly segued into wanting to be an actor (less work) and through that I
Joel: *yawn* Yeah, this is great Bryan.
Jim: He's making Hanging Up look thoughtful and deep.
>started writing sketch comedy and spec scripts. The writing career took off before >the acting career so that's the one I pursued. I love the science fiction and horror >genres, so I feel very fortunate to have landed in one of them.//
Ying: Crash landed is more like it.
> [23:06] <SteveKrutzler> From DilberTrek:
Jim: That name sounds awfully familiar- hey!!
> Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
> [23:07] <BryanFuller> In rehab.
> [23:07] <BryanFuller> Just kidding.
> [23:07] <SteveKrutzler> hehe
><DilberTrek> LOL
Joel: Shoot, I wet myself.
> [23:07] <BryanFuller> By that time, it would be great to have created a show of >my own.//
><DilberTrek> THAT would be neat!
Jim: DilberTrek, you'd better wipe that stuff off your face for giving him such a huge blow job.
Ying: Be nice.
> [23:08] <SteveKrutzler> sounds good!
> [23:08] <SteveKrutzler> From jerry123: will we see the Vulcan engineer soon?
> [23:08] <BryanFuller> Yes.//
Ying: You get a cookie.
> [23:08] <SteveKrutzler> From dracoa: Are any notable guest actors or crossovers >being talked about or in any upcoming episodes?
Joel: We decided to cross UPN's highest profile shows into one night of goofiness!
Ying: Yes, next week, look for "Shasta McVoyager".
> [23:09] <BryanFuller> We abduct the girls from Sister, Sister and do genetic >experimentations. Just kidding. We have a wonderful guest star coming that Fans >will go nuts about. Can't say anymore.//
Jim: God, if they really consider "The Rock" a wonderful guest star. . .
Joel: This is venturing beyond the realm of pity.
> [23:10] <StevePerr> Bob Saget?
Ying: No, he'd out act the rest of the cast put together.
> [23:10] <SteveKrutzler> From Berserker: What were the origins of the Cap'n
Jim: --Crunch storyline?
>Proton storyline?
><DilberTrek> Perry... go nuts, not THROW nuts.
Joel: I think this is the perfect time for the peanuts song. O/~ Peanuts, peanuts, yummy are you,
peanuts, peanuts, buttery are you, oh peanuts come in a jar, they were flown in from afar, oh
peanuts, peanuts, yummy are you, it all makes me hungry! O/~
[Pause. Jim and Ying both back away from Joel]
Jim: I think this one'll finally push him over the edge.
Ying: Actually, this is quite sane of him...
> [23:11] <BryanFuller> Mister Brannon Braga. The inspiration was the classic >30's/40's serials... Flash Gordon, etc. You'll love it.//
Ying: Or else you'll wake up with a Seven of Nine implant in your bed!
Jim: I think to many people would enjoy that to make it a viable threat.
Ying: I try, you know.
> [23:12] <SteveKrutzler> From Zen: I understand that the Janeway/Chakotay
> [23:12] <SteveKrutzler> relationship will not ever be what some fans wish
> [23:12] <SteveKrutzler> it to be, BUT is it possible that the command team
Joel: --will finally win the Voyager wiffle ball tournament.
> [23:12] <SteveKrutzler> will pursue other avenues (date others), yet still
Jim: --keep the fem fans watching with dwindling hopes.
> [23:12] <SteveKrutzler> have the solid friendship we see now?
> [23:13] <BryanFuller> There will be some dating, I'm sure. Not necessarily with >each other.//
Ying: The 'Alien Lover of the Week' seems to work well.
><DilberTrek> <--Janeway/Paris backer ;>
> [23:13] <BryanFuller> Didn't you see the Chakotay/Neelix love affair comment?
Joel: Yeah, I remember a great idea being squashed as of yet another homosexual bash. Why?
Jim: Wait. Haven't we been joking that Bryan and Nick are more than friends? Isn't that
bashing homosexuals in some way?
Joel [impatient]: No, Jim. Everyone in Hollywood is gay.
Jim: Even me???
Joel: We're in Illinois.
Jim: Right. I knew that.
> [23:14] <SteveKrutzler> From Dan Jones: Maybe Q's child can make an
> [23:14] <SteveKrutzler> appearance, after all, isn't Janeway the Godmother?
Ying: Kathryn Janeway IS "The Godmother"!
Jim [Janeway]: I'll make them an offer they can't refuse!
> [23:14] <SteveKrutzler> Also, what about the alien that was the companion to the
> [23:14] <SteveKrutzler> force that brought them out there? The last time
> [23:14] <SteveKrutzler> we saw her she was pretty mad at Janeway & Crew.
Joel: Yeah, wasting what could be a great idea on *one* episode. . . what were they thinking?
> [23:16] <BryanFuller> It's always difficult to reference characters/situations from >previous episodes. We can't always rely on the chance that everyone has seen every
Joel: --Piece of crap we've flung at the screen.
Jim: Okay. I'm to assume it's okay to make fun of the show, again?
Joel: Fine, fine. . .
>episode and knows what's happened. It takes a while to get newcomers up to speed. >If there's a great story, you'll see those characters. The best stories are always the >stand alone episodes that have a great adventure contained with the parameters of >that particular show.
Jim: Uh... no! Hasn't he ever watched a single minute of DS9 or B5? Weren't they exciting
because they built on their characters and situations and created real drama since we knew
who these characters were and are, while trying to add both sexiness and excitement to the mix?
Joel: Whoa, calm down.
> That way everyone can enjo
Ying: So enjo it while you can!
> [23:17] <BryanFuller> That way everyone can enjoy the adventure.//
> [23:18] <SteveKrutzler> From [stupid] DilberTrek: If you couldn't be a Voyager >Staff Writer,
Joel: What kind of tree would you be?
> [23:18] <SteveKrutzler> what would you be doing instead? :-)
><DilberTrek> [stupid]? I didn't put that.
Ying [DilberTrek]: I put [whiney]!
> [23:18] <BryanFuller> Probably a staff writer on another show or maybe acting.//
Jim: Yeah, you'd fit perfectly on "The Nanny."
> [23:18] <SteveKrutzler> sorry, finger must've slipped.
Ying: Knowing Steve, I'm sure we can all assume which finger *that* was. . .
> [23:19] <BryanFuller> Now, now...
Jim: Cat fights are *in* the halls!
><DilberTrek> Act, Bryan! =)
Ying [puzzled]: Act Bryan?
Jim: Act Bryan!
> [23:19] <SteveKrutzler> From Goshen: Read any good books lately? Seen any >good movies?
> [23:19] <BryanFuller> What? You don't like my episodes?
Ying [Steve]: *cough, cough* Just answer the question, Bryan.
> [23:19] <BryanFuller> Nick thinks I should be the next Dax on DS9.
Jim [Bryan]: Although he's the one who looks good in a jumpsuit!
><DilberTrek> "Special Guest Star: Bryan Fuller as Lt. Fuller" would go good with >"Written by: Bryan Fuller"
> [23:19] <SteveKrutzler> ooooooh.... Dilber loses points! :-)
Ying [Steve]: So the total, at the bottom of the eighth, DilberTrek has seven suck up points and I have nine!
> [23:19] <BryanFuller> I loved THE BUTCHER BOY and THE OPPOSITE OF >SEX. GODZILLA was stinky.//
Joel: Steve, you bitch!
><DilberTrek> See Armageddon ;)
> [23:20] <StevePerr> And bring a barf bag
Jim: Yeah, that's how I'd rate it, too.
> [23:20] <SteveKrutzler> hey, it was better than XFILES
> [23:20] <BryanFuller> Boy, it's been a dismal summer as far as movies go.//
Ying: Cheer up. It's only two more years until Star Wars: Episode I. I'm sure you're
all whizzing with anticipation.
> [23:20] <StevePerr> true
><DilberTrek> XFiles was great :>
> [23:20] <SteveKrutzler> Just off the cuff, Bryan... what did you think of the X- >Files movie?
Joel: Off the cuff?!?! Nasty!
Jim: You're mixing up your 'cu' words, Joel.
Joel: He he he... oops.
Ying: Sometimes I just wonder why they couldn't have just stuck us up here with a thirty
year old man in a jumpsuit.
Joel: But you'd be getting a lot more Ensure adds.
Ying: True.
> [23:21] <BryanFuller> Actually, I was a little bored. I'm a big fan of the TV show, >but the movie felt very, very familiar.//
Jim [Bryan]: Yeah, usually the show is so original and variating, it's hard to see the differences.
> [23:21] <SteveKrutzler> Thank you, exactly what I said! (directed towards Dilber) >hehe
Joel: Directing things towards DilberTrek is funny.
> [23:21] <SteveKrutzler> From TheSultanOfSwat:
Ying: Babe Ruth, no!
Jim: Quick! Act Bryan!
> The Kes character was ended >rather abruptly. Will she return, even if it's just as a guest role?
Jim [Bryan]: No, of course not. Good night, everybody.
><DilberTrek> (And we'll see what I say next time Krutzler asks me to organize >questions...)
Joel [DilberTrek]: I'll say 'maybe' and have him wait a week!
> [23:22] <BryanFuller> No plans for that at the present. She blew up, remember?//
Joel: In more than one way, remember?
Jim: Joel, hush up.
> [23:22] <BryanFuller> BOOM.
> [23:23] <SteveKrutzler> KA-boom
Jim: Boom shaka-laka.
><DilberTrek> Caught me off guard. Thought Chakotay had just left the mess hall. >:O
Ying: Yeah, my face would look just like that if I ever had to watch Voyager again.
> [23:23] <SteveKrutzler> From dracoa: What's it like writing a script and then >walking into the living room and seeing it on screen? it must be pretty weird.
> [23:24] <BryanFuller> It's very surreal. Most of the time it's absolutely wonderful, >but more often than not, surreal.//
Joel [dracoa]: What's it like typing on a keyboard and having it read thousands of miles away?
Jim [dracoa]: What's it like to see something with your name on it and then read it?
Ying [dracoa]: What's it like to look in the mirror and not see a geeky nerd?
Joel: Ying! That's not right.
Ying: Oh, so you want me to redirect it towards you?
Joel: See, that would be much bet- No! Stop it!
> [23:24] <SteveKrutzler> Ok everyone... howabout ONE more...
Ying: Bryan, is it a magical world?
> [23:25] <SteveKrutzler> From SkyTrekr: Does working on the show destroy the >magic behind it?
Jim: Not destroy, *vaporize*.
> [23:27] <BryanFuller> Very good question. I would say that varies from show to >show. I'm still pretty enchanted by the Star Trek mythos, but there is the aspect of >seeing a magician reveal his secrets. I've got a long way to go before I get jaded.//
Joel: Yep, the show revealed it's secret flaw to him, and it's left him for the worse.
> [23:27] <SteveKrutzler> Well everyone... that's a wrap!
><DilberTrek> Hard to believe 2 hours have passed already!
Jim: That's amazing, it seemed like twelve from here.
> [23:27] <SteveKrutzler> I would like to thank Bryan Fuller for a GREAT CHAT!
Joel: Thanks for the GREAT CHAT to all the Babylon 5 fans! Why didn't you do one for us?
> [23:27] <BryanFuller> My pleasure.
Jim [Bryan]: --is your sorrow! Bwa ha ha!
> [23:27] <SteveKrutzler> And especially for spending two hearty hours with the >fans online, tonight!
Joel [Bryan]: I need to take a long, cold shower. Oh, Nick!!!
> [23:28] <SteveKrutzler> Come back and see us again sometime!
> [23:28] <StevePerr> Thanks a bunch for thrilling us nerds!
Jim: Huh. Two Steves. I hardly noticed.
Joel: Beats a movie full of 'Kens'.
> [23:28] <BryanFuller> Would love to. Thanks. Good night everyone.
Jim [Bryan]: Remember, this chat was brought to you by Seven of Nine's breasts.
Ying [Bryan]: Buy breasts wherever they are sold!
Joel [Bryan]: If not fully satisfied, return unused breasts for a full refund.
[Silence]
Ying: Joel, I think that's the most disturbing thing I've heard all day.
Jim: And that's scary!
> [23:28] <SteveKrutzler> There ya go everyone
> [23:28] <SteveKrutzler> talk away!
> [23:28] <dracoa> Can we chat yet?
Ying [SteveKrutzler]: No, when I said talk away, I meant to yourself at your computer!
><DilberTrek> Nite Bryan! Thanks for coming!
Joel [DilberTrek]: Well, Bryan remember me when you write! I'm the wormy guy.
> [23:28] <dracoa> Yey!
Ying: I can rule Pern now!
> [23:29] <Captain_Boss> Yeah!
Ying: Captain_Boss, huh?
Jim: The name just oozes authority.
> [23:29] <dracoa> Good night! Feel free to come back anytime!!
Jim: This is Tom Dracoa, and we'll leave a light on for ya!
> [23:29] <MaquisRaider> yawn
Jim [MaquisRadier]: The world just isn't funny without Jim Varney around!
> [23:29] <Captain_Boss> Yes, thanks for the chat!
> [23:29] <dracoa> Thanks again for taking the time. :)
> [23:29] <Seether> Thanks
> [23:29] <Killdeer> Thanks
Joel: Wow. I suddenly have the urge to kill Killdeer!
Ying: Hm. I think it was supposed to make you wanna kill deer.
Joel: I do want to kill Killdear.
Ying: Goodness. Fine. Kill killdear
Joel: You'd better stop repeating yourself. It sounds weird.
> [23:30] <dracoa> Hey, you guys hear the latest from Ron Moore about Dax?
Ying: Yeah, she's going to run a restaurant in New York.
> [23:30] <StevePerr> what
> [23:30] <jerry123> I have
> [23:30] <dracoa> <<should I spoil?>>
> [23:31] <jerry123> It's to good not to
> [23:31] <MaquisRaider> Why not?
Jim: The internet! Allowing you to debate over whether or not to give information!
> [23:31] <dracoa> Dax is coming back as a regular castmember, as another female >character
> [23:31] <jerry123> starfleet too
Joel: o/~ In the Starfleet! You can see the galaxies! In the Starfleet! You can do whatever you please! o/~
Jim [whacks Joel]: Quiet, monkey.
> [23:31] <MaquisRaider> I wonder how Worf will react
Joel [Dr. Hale]: I wonder how Intersect will react when they learn that Dr. Hale along with all the secrets of Tripolidine were blown sky high by the agents of the international oil cartel?
Jim [Luther Stark]: Probably not too good, heh heh.
> [23:31] <dracoa> Is Bryan still here? Or just his ghost? <g>
Joel: Maybe there's just a little bit of Bryan inside all of us. . .
> [23:31] <Captain_Boss> Well, that makes sense Dracoa
> [23:32] <Captain_Boss> but how would she be Starfleet again?
Ying [Cap'n Boss]: Tell me or I'll fire and depromote you!
> [23:32] <dracoa> Call me TrekTech...that's how I'm normally known as. It was >taken tonight. <g>
Jim: Call me Fabio. That's how I'm normally known as, but it was taken tonight.
Joel: Oops. Sorry. Didn't think anyone else would want it. . .
> [23:32] <jerry123> I don't know that is what it said
> [23:32] <Captain_Boss> NP
Jim: What's Nintendo Power got to do with this?
> [23:32] <Buddy> You guys are full of crap about that Dax thing. The new host >will be present for less thatn three episodes
Joel: Oh, what does a gorilla know?
Jim: Did you notice that, right after Bryan left, they *immediately* started to discuss DS9?
> [23:32] <SteveKrutzler> Bryan says he enjoyed it everyone! I'm off to do the >transcript... chat away!
Ying: So that's the bastard who wrote this.
Jim: Yeah, well for forcing us to endure this, I'll just say that your name is funny!
Joel: Good one.
> [23:32] <dracoa> I don't know about Starfleet, but Ron Moore just said *she's* >coming back.
><DilberTrek> heh
Ying [DilberTrek]: I just *know* she's going to be played by the girl car thief from _My Date With The Presidents Daughter_!
Joel: Don't ever mention that again. EVER.
> [23:32] <Captain_Boss> Buddy, that makes more sense
Jim [Cap'n Boss]: I'm buying into your rumors. Do you have any pamphlets?
> [23:33] <MaquisRaider> Ihope we get some really interesting storylines out of her >like we did/do with 7/9
All: [cough uncontrollably]
><DilberTrek> Buddy...sorry...nope...It's a regular
> [23:33] <jerry123> You don't read the Ron Moore post do you
Ying [Train engineer]: Why don't they every look?
> [23:33] <BryanFuller> Still here... but signing off. Was there any questions that >were left unanswere?
Jim: Joe Estevez in UnansWere!
> [23:33] <StevePerr> Budd you're full of crap. RON MOORE said she is a regulatr
Joel: Ron Moore was really drunk if he called her a regulatr.
> [23:33] <Captain_Boss> Well, Dax is coming back
Ying: Back from the future!
><DilberTrek> Bryan...you blocking AOL IMs?
Joel [DilberTrek]: Why won't you let me stalk you like a good little man?
> [23:33] <dracoa> Sort of if I can remember them Bryan. <g>
> [23:33] <dracoa> Oh yeah, who's the character you identify the most with?
Jim: My money's on Seven of Nine.
Ying: I'm on the Borg Children.
Joel: No way. He's a Paris pimpin' machine!
> [23:33] <Captain_Boss> Like a smart Trekker
Joel: We've got Plug Sign! Ahhhhhh!
Jim: Nice...
> [23:34] <BryanFuller> Probably Neelix... I'm a bit of a goofball myself.
Jim: Geesh. Both disappointing and disturbing at the same time.
> [23:34] <skytrekr> Do you know what 3D software is used for the ships on the >show
Jim: Anyone else that pitiful?
> [23:34] <Buddy> Hey Brian will Lt. Carey be back played by Josh Clark
> [23:34] <dracoa> <g> Are you as bad of a cook?
> [23:34] <BryanFuller> So far no plans for that.
> [23:34] <BryanFuller> Definitely as bad a cook.
Ying [dracoa]: What kind of pants are you wearing?
> [23:34] <Buddy> What kind of changes will we see in the characters
> [23:34] <Captain_Boss> LOL
Jim: The Cap'n's is right on the money, there.
> [23:34] <Buddy> Will they be promoted
Joel [Buddy]: Am I really this thick
> [23:34] <MaquisRaider> Exactly how many shuttles does Voyager have?????? >10,000????
> [23:34] <Captain_Boss> They will grow and expand
Ying: The shuttles or the cast members, because it does look like Tim Russ is gaining some here and there...
> [23:34] <BryanFuller> I have to run. Feel free to email questions to me at mailto:------@- >------.com
Joel: Censorship. Don't let it happen in Clinton's America.
> [23:34] <Captain_Boss> Buddy, Bryan said no plans as of yet.
> [23:35] <BryanFuller> Good night everyone.
Joel [Bryan]: Remember! Send porn!
><DilberTrek> nite Bryan!
Jim [DilberTrek]: Call me!
> [23:35] <Captain_Boss> LOL Raider... only 5,000
All: Day!
> [23:35] <BryanFuller> Shuttle are like doritos.
Jim: Voyager writers are like grammatically challenged Adam Sandler impersonators...
> Keep eating them and we'll make more.
Joel: Eating shuttles. Now there's a pleasant thought to leave on.
Jim: Well, my will to live is crushed like a bug. How 'bout you guys?
Ying: I'm just worried about having to face Angela again...
[They all exit]
* DING!* [Third floor, it smells!]
[Joel, Ying, and Jim all enter. They all look exasperated]
Joel: That... was a chat.
Jim: Not as exciting as they made it sound like it was going to be.
Ying: Not exciting *period*.
[Long pause]
Jim: Ya know, we never would have had to endure this if DS9 had been
on the air for another year or three.
Ying: Yeah. We never would have had to endure this if those bastards
hadn't conceived Voyager, either.
Joel: I shudder to agree with you guys.
Disembodied Voice Coming from Stage Left: Fools!
Joel: What the. . .?
[A hooded figure emerges from the left. He is wearing a traditional _Star
Wars_ type cloak, with the usual eerieness that surrounds it]
Disembodied Voice in the Cloak: Spoiled failures! You ridicule merely
what you do not understand!
Ying: Who are you???
Disembodied Voice in the Cloak: -I- [Dramatic pause] am Adam Colorado
Coatcheck!
[Awkward pause]
Joel: ADCOCK???
Jim: You nasty man! [Hits Joel with his purse]
Joel: You're NOT Carol Channing!
Jim: Oh. Yeah.
Adam: Yes, Denebian slime devils, it is I, Adcock!
Joel: Do you *really* need to call yourself that?
Adam: Why does everyone ask me that??? Goodness, 'Adcock' is both
a cool and easy to remember pseudonym.
Ying: But it's kind of weird.
Adam: It is not! You're just jealous!
Joel: Say, how did you get up here?
Ying: Yeah, do you know a way out?
Adam: I came through the Plot Hole.
Jim: Oh. What's it like there? On the other side, I mean.
Adam: Oh, it's a fantastic world of lollipops and rainbows-
Ying: Cool.
Adam: -filled death and destruction and violent hatred thanks to the
Dominion. Oh, by the way, they told me to give you this.
[He hands Joel a letter]
Joel [Reading]: "Dear Sirs, Seeing as how you are both inept and totally
incompetent, we will give you until the end of the season
before you meet us, the Dominion. This two part episode
was just foreshadowing, and foreshadowing is a type
of fish. Thank you, and please be appropriately worried.
Love, The Dominion"
Ying: Wow. Spooky.
Jim: Well, I'M appropriately worried.
Adam: Nonetheless, I'm still angered over your abuse of Star Trek: Voyager.
Joel: Excuse me?
Adam: You fools! You read the entire transcript of that glorious chat, and
all you could do was make fun of it!
Joel: Uh. . . duh? That's what we do!
Adam: Nonetheless! How could you do that with Voyager, possibly the
greatest series of all time?
[Joel, Ying, and Jim begin to cough uncontrollably]
Adam: HEY!!! It is! To prove to you the positive effects of this amazing
bastion of television, I have been showing your maintenance person
the greatest hour of Voyager, "Scorpion, Part II."
Ying: Best episode?
Jim: I bet I know why he thinks it's the best episode. . .
Joel: Our maintenance person? Angela? She hates science fiction- except
commercially popular films that have comedic edges-!!!
Adam: Ha! She loved "Scorpion"!
[Angela enters; she looks totally dazed, horrified beyond words]
Angela [Talking like Emo from "Catching Trouble"]: I just saw an episode of
Star Trek Voyager and there were people and happy people and it
made me happy and I think I saw an ami-nal with wing-ed potat-oes. . .
Adam: See! She's perfectly happy. Star Trek: Voyager can do that to you.
Joel: I wouldn't call her 'happy'.
Ying: Do you think she'll make it???
[Mads light begins to flash]
Angela: And I saw a certain number and it was very pretty and she looked
happy. . .
Joel: Goodness, I actually feel sorry for her.
Adam: Off! To further promote the beauty of Voyager!
[Adam runs off; Joel slaps the button]
[Room 209]
Mr. Nelson: Well, we found Meyer's balls. My wife had them, Lord knows
why. . . what? What's going on up there? You have a guest
star?!?! Well, we can have guest stars, too! Meyer! Bring in
our 'friend'!
Mr. Meyer: Okay-dokey, Dave!
[Meyer dashes off screen; his balls fall out of his pocket]
Mr. Nelson: Don't call me Dave! What the- Meyer! Your balls!
[Meyer dashes back on, with none other than. . .]
Bryan Fuller: Hi, captives on the 3rd Floor, I hear you're huge Voyager fans!
[3rd Floor]
Joel: No, we hate it with a fiery passion.
[Room 209]
Bryan Fuller: But you have seen the show?
[3rd Floor]
Ying: Uh. . . yes.
[Room 209]
Bryan Fuller: Then that's all that matters! Just kidding.
[Steve Krutzler darts on]
Steve: He he.
[Steve Krutzler darts off]
[3rd Floor]
Jim: Sigh. Jar Jar and Neelix. Just waiting for _The Matrix_ to screw itself over. . .
Joel: Well, sirs, we lived. Until next week?
Angela: I think I will go look at the ami-nals. . .
Ying: I'll fix this. Danny stinks!
[Ying ducks behind Angela; she's hit by a clown hammer and falls behind the
desk]
[Room 209]
Mr. Nelson: Next week, you get to stop and listen to the "Music"! Ha!
Bryan Fuller: Remember- Music are like Doritos. . .
[Bryan looks down]
Bryan Fuller [To Mr. Meyer]: Are those your balls?
Mr. Meyer: Oh, thanks.
Bryan Fuller: You're welcome. I love balls. . .
Mr. Meyer: So does Dave.
Mr. Nelson: MEYER!!!!!!!!!!
Mr. Meyer: That's just what your wife says!
Mr. Nelson: Until next week, Joel, I'll see you. . . and so will the remains
of Tod!!! Push the button, Bryan!
[Mr. Nelson begins to chase Mr. Meyer]
Bryan Fuller: I know what buttons *I* can push. . . now, to find my catsuit. . .
