[quoteost_uid0]Dolim: (over the comm) Test the weapon NOW! NOW! NO-- Degra: All right already. Keep your pants on. Degra's First Officer: Sir! There's a ship approaching! Degra: Shoot. Halt the weapon test and tell Dolim he can take his pants off after all. Shran: Greetings! I'm from the Andorian National Kremlin of Lodestone Extracters. Degra: (over the comm) You're the man from A.N.K.L.E.? [/quoteost_uid0] hahahahahahaha ETA: Is there going to be a YOINK in every fiver now? [/colorost_uid0]

[bost_uid0][ ... ][/bost_uid0] Shran: To answer your question, we have a counter-counter-tractor-beam-beam beam. [/quoteost_uid0]Were you watching [iost_uid0]Get Smart[/iost_uid0] before you wrote this? :lol: [quoteost_uid0]Archer: What's with the box of safety scissors? T'Pol: They're for the Andorians. Surely we aren't letting them use real tools. Archer: These are all left-handed. T'Pol: Andorians are sinister. [/quoteost_uid0]Heheheh. [quoteost_uid0]Shran: Greetings!

I could really improve the efficiency of your phase cannons. Reed: With your amazing engineer's touch? Talas: You'd better believe it. I could get those phase cannons pumping out so much energy they'd -- Phlox: (over the comm) Stop it! STOP IT! I didn't set you two up. You're not allowed to have sexual tension! Reed: Didn't I rig your communicator to explode? Phlox: I switched it with Mr. Mayweather's. [/quoteost_uid0]Hee hee hee. Threatened antenna stapling. Travis 'n' Hoshi subplot. Angstroms and more. Five stars. Joe Bob says check it out. [/colorost_uid0]

Heh. I like these sort of jokes. [quoteost_uid0]Archer: These are all left-handed. T'Pol: Andorians are sinister.[/quoteost_uid0] Heh. I like these sort of jokes too. [quoteost_uid0]Reed: No! Don't go. Just because I resent your interference doesn't mean I don't think you're hot. Talas: All right, I'll stay. But treat me with respect. Reed: Sure, baby, whatever you say.[/quoteost_uid0] Nice one! [quoteost_uid0]Archer: There's only one way to find out for sure. How good an actor are you? Shran: You have [iost_uid0]no[/iost_uid0] idea.[/quoteost_uid0] [quoteost_uid0]Archer: I've got it -- we'll steal it! Shran: Why do you need to steal it if you've got it?[/quoteost_uid0] [quoteost_uid0]Archer: I've been trying to remember what you use to repel vampires. It's Gralik! I'll have Chef put some in tonight's dinner. T'Pol: I don't think I'll come to dinner tonight.[/quoteost_uid0] [quoteost_uid0]T'Pol: I wasn't finished. "O bear up in the tree so high / why must you spit into the sky? / The eagles cry, 'Oh me, oh my!' / Three point one four one six is pi."[/quoteost_uid0] Does a Vulcan Bear spit in the woods? :laugh: That was really really hilarious! Great work, Zeke.[/colorost_uid0]

Archer: WE'RE NOT ALL FREAKIN' PINK! [/quoteost_uid0] Mayweather should have been the one to say this. Wait a minute, give Mayweather lines? No! Perish the thought! Great fiver. By the defination of week, I hope 'Enterprise Week' will yield four more new fivers.[/colorost_uid0]

I was thinking of Rocky and Bullwinkle with the anti-anti-missile-missile missile. Hilarious, Zeke. It's banished all the lingering memories from Shrek 2 last night. Definitely worth a reread when I've forgotten all the jokes.[/colorost_uid0]

Am I missing something here? shouldn't that be aphrodisiac? I'm confused. Oh well, it was really good! Good job, Zeke![/colorost_uid0] |

[color=#000000ost_uid0]That could work, too. They were writing from the same side of the brain.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]Tucker: It would really help if we could borrow some of your advanced technology. For example, I hear you have a de-angster.
Shran: Indeed we do! It has a capacity of 400 angstroms.[/quoteost_uid0] The probable winner of the pun-of-the-week award, unless Zeke has an even more outrageous one in the pipeline.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]good choice, Marc.
Wait. I found another one. Unforgivable pun of the fiver... [quoteost_uid0]Shran: Arrrgh. How hard can it be to find a human in a -- hey! Stack those on my desk.[/quoteost_uid0] for shame. [/colorost_uid0] |

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Actually, I'm not sure [iost_uid0]what[/iost_uid0] the skrell ENT Week is going to yield now. I'm thinking I may try to continue it until I'm out of episodes (saving "Zero Hour" for last, of course). That would be another nine days, I think. If I do that, I'll change the name to Enterprise "Week."[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Well, I think you shouldn't start rushing it now. Pretty much all of your fivers are great. Wouldn't want to gain speed at the cost of quality. [/colorost_uid0]
