Sorry to disappear -- couldn't get online yesterday. Here at last is the next fiver of Enterprise Week: Five-Minute "The Council (../enterprise/thecouncil.html)."


By the way, our announcement has finally been posted at TrekToday (http://www.trektoday.com/news/230504_02.shtml). If you just came here from there, welcome to Five-Minute Voyager! This site has a [i:post_uid0]lot[/i:post_uid0] of sections and content -- a good place to start is the About (../about) section, which explains what we're about and how the site works.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]Dolim: Good news, Council. I killed Degra and I'd do it again. Also, we're taking control of the weapon. And I poisoned all your Cheerios.
Sloth Xindi: This is an outrage! You'll start a civil war!
Dolim: Who doesn't like civil wars?
Walrus Xindi: You know full well you can't fire the weapon without three species' command codes.
Dolim: Funny you should mention Hoshi.... [/quote:post_uid0]

I think the only thing that could have made this fiver better is if you could have tied in a "The Q and the Grey" reference. GREAT job.

[quote:post_uid0]T'Pol: These emotions are giving me a headache.
Phlox: We can't have that. Headaches discourage sex. Here, take an Advil.

Classic![/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Hehe, Great Fiver as always Zeke. I hope the insectoids like my hair too. ::pet::[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]Hawkins: Remind me, which one of you is being affected by the Trellium-D?
Mayweather: T'Pol. You can tell because she's flying us directly at the sphere.
Hawkins: Ah.
(pause)
Mayweather and Hawkins: AAAAAAAA!
[/quote:post_uid0]

Zeke, your fivers are getting better and better (and denser with references, I think). Congratulations![/color:post_uid0]

[Nan]

[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]Giant Mechanical Arm: YOINK!
Hawkins: GAK!
Reed: Noooo! They got rid of Hawk, girl!
T'Pol: Yes, we all know you didn't like the Justice League season finale. Can we move on? [/quote:post_uid0]

GAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

Oh man. Too funny.

Good one, Zeke! :D[/color:post_uid0]

[NAHTMMM]

[color=#000000:post_uid5][quote:post_uid5]Hawkins: You're expecting me to say "I remember it made me sick to my stomach," right? Well, ha! I did great in zero-G!
(pause)
Hawkins: I just volunteered for the mission, didn't I?
Reed: See you at Shuttlepod One.

Evil Transdimensional Being: It's not too late to un-betray us, Degra. We'll even refund your thirty pieces of silver.
Degra: I'm never trusting you again. All you ever do is lie.
Evil Transdimensional Being: Oh yeah? "I am lying."
Degra: That only works on robots.
(BOOM)
Degra: And apparently my first officer.

...
Sato: If I can translate Porthos's diary, I can translate anything.

...
Dolim: Good news, Council. I killed Degra and I'd do it again. Also, we're taking control of the weapon. And I poisoned all your Cheerios.[/quote:post_uid5]

[mudshark]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Woo! Good stuff!
[quote:post_uid0]Evil Transdimensional Being: The unfavourable timelines are getting stronger, or some such.
Evil Transdimensional Being 2: We must destroy Enterprise.
Evil Transdimensional Being 3: Agreed.
Evil Transdimensional Being: Good. Next item: getting lower-wattage light bulbs for this place. [/quote:post_uid0]Heh.
[quote:post_uid0]Archer: Focus, people. We need as much evidence as possible to convince the Xindi Council. Where could we get some more?
T'Pol: We could search one of the spheres. Perhaps there will be an optolythic data rod containing proof of the sphere-builders' treachery.
Degra: That would be too convenient. My people would think it was a faaaaaaaaaaake. [/quote:post_uid0] :D
[quote:post_uid0]Reed: Corporal, do you remember your zero-G combat training?
Hawkins: You're expecting me to say "I remember it made me sick to my stomach," right? Well, ha! I did great in zero-G!
(pause)
Hawkins: I just volunteered for the mission, didn't I?
Reed: See you at Shuttlepod One. [/quote:post_uid0]Heheheh.
[quote:post_uid0]Degra: That was easy. You should particularly watch out for Dolim, the leader of the reptilians. There's a story... apparently his grandson was born slightly deformed, and....
Archer: And?
Degra: ...and Dolim ate his own grandson's dog.
Archer: That's inhuman! [/quote:post_uid0]I'll confess; this went right over my head.
[quote:post_uid0]T'Pol: Zimbabwe! Whether kitchen eats the photocopier or air truck infringes? BANK ERROR IN YOUR FAVOUR!
--------------------
T'Pol: I had no idea. Incorporated pterodactyl fiber. Muskoxen. [/quote:post_uid0]And the mome raths outgrabe. ;)
[quote:post_uid0]Archer: Don't worry about these conflicts -- when I was in the future, I found out that one day humans and Xindi will live together in harmony.
Degra: That's a tall order. Six-part harmony is difficult to arrange. [/quote:post_uid0]Parallel 5ths? Pfft! :lol:
[quote:post_uid0]Reed: Noooo! They got rid of Hawk, girl! [/quote:post_uid0]Heh. Now, where have I heard [i:post_uid0]that[/i:post_uid0] before?

Another winner, [b:post_uid0]Zeke[/b:post_uid0]. :)[/color:post_uid0]

[admiral sab]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Unforgiveable Pun of the Day: [quote:post_uid0]Degra: They also left behind some Avian mineral water.
[/quote:post_uid0]

Shame. :)

Sab :eyeroll:[/color:post_uid0]

[Derek]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]^ Yeah, I liked the mineral water joke.

Great fiver, Zeke. As always.[/color:post_uid0]

[Wowbagger]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]This week has not been good for my ENT fiver addiction. And I was just getting those unleashed emotions under control.

Great job Zeke, as per usual.

Wowbagger: Yeah. This is a signature.[/color:post_uid0]

[NeoMatrix]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Awesome Fiver![/color:post_uid0]

LOL, this DS9 reference was excellent, lots of other great references as well :)[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]When you think about it ...
[quote:post_uid0]Walrus Xindi: <It's true! You did find a Guardian!>
Ant Xindi: <Impossible! All the Guardians are in Pittsburgh! This is a faaaaaaake!> [/quote:post_uid0] ... giving the recap of/new twist on the gag to the Insectoid was pretty inspired, too. :D[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]In the original episode, the rumour was that Dolim had his grandson poisoned. My version is just another reference to the chili joke.[/color:post_uid0]

[mudshark]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]^ Okay. Thought it sounded like a chili joke, but hadn't seen the episode and thus wasn't sure.[/color:post_uid0]
