Don:	I’m sitting watching Insurrection just now, never really noticed how many cheesy lines they all came out with.

Don:	Riker just seems like a fucking headcase while in charge.

Mike:

I haven’t seen that in years, but I do remember him being a total lunatic when he gets in the Big Seat. Good thing J–L was there to keep him in line most of the time!

Don:	He’s ejecting the warp core and detonating it to close a subspace rip even though he has no idea whether it’ll fuck the Enterprise or not.

Don:	And now he’s just collected some really volatile gas to “throw down their necks”.

Mike:

The man is a legend. Never let a jazz trombonist call the shots on a huge, heavily armed battleship: years of bourbon sours and trombone-induced hypoxia have made him reckless to the point of nihilism.

Mike:

The “really volatile gas” could be a great fart joke.

Don:	“The Enterprise would never fire unless they were under attack”… or if Riker was in charge and fancied a laugh.

Mike:

Will Riker: Phaser Troll Extraordinaire.

Mike:

If you watch Generations and Nemesis, note who’s in command when the Enterprise gets seriously fucked up.

Don:	It’s Deanna, isn’t it?

Mike:

She’s flying it, but she isn’t the one in command…

Don:	I seem to remember you telling me she wrote off two ships?

Mike:

Yep. She’s at the conn both times, but Willy is the one who gets her to fly it into things…
