Enterprise Week lives! Here's Five-Minute "Proving Ground," in which my Season 1 habit of introducing my own subplots really starts to reassert itself....[/colorost_uid0]

[Scooter]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]YAY! The return of the terrifying Aibo -- Latin humor -- and a Dr Who reference! Wheee!

[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]

[mudshark]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]Reed: Hey, someone just pulled us out of the field with a tractor beam. Why isn't my counter-tractor-beam beam working?
[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'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]
[quoteost_uid0]Talas: It's too bad I'm not staying longer. 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]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Hehehehehehehehehe...*deep breath*...hehehehehehehehehe...

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]Shran: Arrrgh. How hard can it be to find a human in a -- hey! Stack those on my desk.[/quoteost_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]

[stripysox]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I think best fiver yet! [/colorost_uid0]

[Wade, The Sane Commodore]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]Shran: Do you have a problem, pinkskin?
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]

[Sa'ar Chasm]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]Were you watching Get Smart before you wrote this?[/quoteost_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]

[Hotaru]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]Mayweather: No more awkwardness about Phlox's stupid amnesia gas.[/quoteost_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]

[Marc]

[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]Yes. Also, the blurb refers to "Travis and Mayweather." I've fixed both on the Trek Nation copy, and I'll fix them on the 5MV copy when I get home.[/colorost_uid0]

[admiral sab]

[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]

[Zeke]

[quoteost_uid0="Wade, The Sane Commodore"][color=#000000ost_uid0]By the definition of week, I hope 'Enterprise Week' will yield four more new fivers.[/colorost_uid0][/quoteost_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]

[admiral sab]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I think that's a great idea, Zeke. 9 more? You can do it!

Sab[/colorost_uid0]

[Michiel]

[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]

[admiral sab]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]That would be another nine days, I think.[/quoteost_uid0]

But, Michiel, in Zeke time nine days won't take away from quality. The quality will be there...speed won't...

Sab, running off.[/colorost_uid0]

[Michiel]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Yes, yes. As long as he finishes them soon.

...[/colorost_uid0]

[admiral sab]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]:lol: True. [/colorost_uid0]
