The Kingstown zooms across the screen. 
 
KENNETH (V.O.) 
Captain’s Log: 
 
2. 2. 
 
INT. Kingstown Corridors 
 
KENNETH is strolling across the hallways of the ship. He stops 
for a moment and waves at EMMA in the hallway. EMMA curls up 
into a ball and lies there on the floor. KENNETH thinks for a 
moment, and decides to disregard this, and continues to walk 
forward.  
 
KENNETH (V.O) (Cont.) 
Stardate 46765.86757990. 
It has been five days since the cataclysm caused by Control, an 
old artificial intelligence from the time of Captain Pike’s 
Enterprise. It was believed to have been destroyed there and 
then too, but it seems to have survived. I’ve been reading up on 
my history. The secret files owned by Section 31 of Starfleet 
have been released to the public. Control was dangerous enough, 
but now the public is expecting us, the remainder of starfleet 
to rise up and fix it’s problems. The one’s caused by Section 
31. Earth was made into labor camps when Control gained power, 
and the people need someone to blame, or someone to help them 
establish their lives again. But how can we, a ship filled with 
drop outs and incompetents manage to do that? It’s a conundrum.  
 
KENNETH, still walking, notices GABE, talking excitedly and very 
quickly to an annoyed MAGNOLIA. MAGNOLIA gestures for KENNETH to 
get her out of this situation.  
 2

KENNETH realizes that the only way to do that is to talk to 

GABE, making him focus on himself. His face makes a face of 
pained politeness and he walks away faster. 
 
KENNETH (V.O.) (Cont.) 
Control, in a way, was right. There’s no way we can ever work on 
a team if we remain like this. I’ve been giving out commissions 
to some of the people we picked out on Vulcan. Lt. Amber Moore 
is our new pilot, and is only slightly better than the old one. 
The old pilot was a decaying skeleton. She evidently still has a 
concussion from Eden conking her on the head, which Doctor Shawn 
can’t or won’t cure, so she can’t fly the ship straight, but 
none of us really can do anything professionally, so somehow, 
she’s our best bet. Either way, that brings us to Eden. 
Eden. Eden Hauser. Where do I start? From the moment she’s 
boarded the ship, she’s been a partier and a disruptive 
influence. She also won’t leave, because she doesn’t have 
anywhere else to go. I’ve made her a Counselor. A lot of the 
crew lost family members when Control’s machine exploded. We 
need a Counselor. Eden’s idea of a counselor is someone who 
gives people free drinks. The fact that this actually helps some 
people is beyond me. I run this crew, but hell if I understand 
it. 
Crewman Julien is our last new addition. Nobody knows what 
species he is. It’s not on record. He does insist he’s tall for 
his species. Also, nobody can get him out of the massive piece 
of machinery we beamed up. We’ve put the machinery on a 
skateboard, but that doesn’t seem to help him get around that 
much. 
Why did we have to be the last of the federation? 
End Log. 
 
KENNETH, done ranting, finally stops walking and gets into a 
turbolift at the end of the hallway and he jettisons elsewhere 
on the ship.

INT. Kingstown Bridge 
 
KENNETH enters the bridge. ELIOTT and ALEXA are the remaining 
crew on the bridge. 
ELIOTT 
Captain on the bridge!  
 
KENNETH 
At ease.  
 
Everyone calms down a bit.  
ALEXA’s drone, at the main console, turns to KENNETH.  
 
ALEXA 
Captain, my sensors indicate a nearby planetoid. 
 
KENNETH 
What, what do you mean. We’re in the middle of space, going 
towards Earth. There’s no planets between Vulcan and Earth. 
Risa is on a completely different trajectory and so is Betazed. 
How can there be a planet there? 
 
ALEXA 
That’s the most confusing thing, Captain. I cannot reconcile it 
with known fact. All I know is that a planet that shouldn’t 
exist suddenly does. Wait, hold on. 
 
KENNETH 
What? 
 
ALEXA 
The planet below has a chronitron signature. That indicates 
heavy levels of deuterium. 
 
 4

KENNETH 
What, huh? I failed my final Starfleet Exam, guys.  
 
ELIOTT 
We need it. The Warp Core Needs Some Of It To Work. 
 
KENNETH 
Set a course. Something Fishy’s going on here. 
 
ALEXA 
I’m receiving a signal, it appears to be a virus file, I’m 
trying to lock it out. 
 
KENNETH 
What? From Where? 
 
ALEXA’s drone falls onto the floor, seeming to enter a seizure.

INT. Kingstown Bridge 
 
KENNETH 
Eliott, get us to that planetoid. Whatever’s happened to Alexa, 
It’s definitely coming from that planet.  
 
ELIOTT 
Yes, Captain.  
 
JULIEN enters the bridge. Rolling on his massive box of 
machinery.  
 
JULIEN 
I found some old Section 31 Schematics. We have a spore drive 
now. I also found out that if I plug myself into it, It takes us 
places, and I hallucinate. 
 
KENNETH 
 6

How’d you figure that out? 

 
JULIEN 
Well, we’re in the nearby planets orbit, and I’m hallucinating, 
Captain Shrek.  
 
KENNETH 
Okay. 
 
He hits his communicator.  
 
KENNETH (Cont.) 
Magnolia, I want you, Julien, Shawn and Eden on an away team. 
We need to get deuterium and something to fix Alexa. 
 
JULIEN 
I can fix her. Hey, Alexa, Play Despacito. 
 
ALEXA 
Extermination Protocols Online.  
Venting Neurotoxin. 
Firing Phasers.  
 
Phaser beams fire at julien and Kenneth. 
 
JULIEN  
Oh crap. 
 
KENNETH 
Everyone, evacuate the bridge!  
 
KENNETH, JULIEN, ELIOTT and the Redshirts exit the bridge. 
Most of the redshirts die anyway.

6. 6. 
 
EXT. The Mysterious Planetoid: City Streets - Day 
 
A transporter signal occurs and JULIEN, MAGNOLIA, SHAWN and EDEN 
materialize on the planet. It seems stylized off of 1920s New 
York, Chicago, or other similar cities, but most of the 
buildings are rubble and brick. Brick Uniform houses line the 
street, and go on for hundreds of miles into the distance. And 
The Rubble goes on for miles as well.  
 
MAGNOLIA 
Set Phasers To Stun, Everyone. Remember The Prime Directive. 
 
EDEN 
The Prime What? 
 
JULIEN 
Do what my favorite Captain, Kathryn Janeway always did. IGNORE 
IT.  
 
EDEN 
Can I have Phasers? 
 
MAGNOLIA 
You are a bartender. Who uses her own stock. You’d probably use 
the entire charge blasting squirrels and placing them in your 
hair. 
 
EDEN 
Don’t tell me how to live my life!  
 
SHAWN 
Honestly, if I see any squirrels, that crap is going down!  
 
MAGNOLIA 
 8

This is a pre first contact species, so- 

 
EDEN (Interjecting) 
That sounds wrong. 
 
MAGNOLIA 
Stop. Did you hear that? There was a noise. 
 
They hear a rustling noise, the movement of brick. 
 
JULIEN 
SET PHASERS TO KILL 
 
MAGNOLIA 
NOOOO 
 
A man exits the rubble.  
 
MAN 
Greetings. I am Captain Jerk of The Federation Starship 
Menterprise.  
 
MAGNOLIA 
Oh, my god. 
 
JERK 
Mr. Spook?  
 
Two more men crawl out of the rubble. 
 
MAN 2 
Greetings. I am Captain Clerk of The Federation Starship 
Kenterprise.  
 
MAN 3 
Greetings. I am Captain Quirk of The Federation Starship 
Shenterprise. 
 
JERK 
 9

The Holy Symbol! 

 
He points at their uniform. 
 
JERK (Cont.) 
You will come with us.  
 
EDEN 
That sentence never ends well. 
 
JULIEN 
SET PHASERS TO KILL 
 
SHAWN injects JULIEN with sedative. 
 
SHAWN 
Sure. We’ll come with you.  
 
EDEN 
Actually, I think He was having the right idea.  
 
SHAWN waves his sedative needle threateningly. 
 
EDEN 
N-v-m.  
 
7. 7. 
 
EXT. Strange People’s Camp 
 
The Group of Natives and Starfleet arrive at a camp. The ground 
in the nearby area appears to have been scorched, many times.  
 
EDEN 
Woah. What is this? 
 
MAGNOLIA 
I actually, for once, have no idea.  
 
 10

SHAWN 
My database doesn’t have anything about this. 
EDEN 
You have a database? 
 
SHAWN 
Yeah, it’s about medical treatment.  
 
QUIRK 
Silence!  
 
The three Natives turn around.  
 
CLERK 
This is but our humble abode.  
 
MAGNOLIA 
Ok.  
 
JERK 
You may not visit such a place. It is not fit for the Gods. 
 
MAGNOLIA 
Wait, what, no, no, no, we aren’t gods! 
 
SHAWN 
Hey, Magnolia, Ever Seen Ghostbusters?  
 
QUIRAEA appears. 
 
QUIRAEA (Imitating Winston)  
Ray, when someone asks if you are a god, you say, YES! 
 
MAGNOLIA 
Stop it.  
 
QUIRAEA disappears. 
 
CLERK 
 11

Look! How She Converses With The Spirits! 

 
MAGNOLIA (deadpan) 
It’s called Schizophrenia.  
 
QUIRK 
If she can converse with the spirits, she must be the holy one.  
 
EDEN 
If anyone here is holy, it’s me.  
 
SHAWN 
No, it’s me! 
 
JULIEN  
I’m unconscious!  
 
They look at the unconscious Julien for a second and move on. 
 
JERK 
Yes, if they are all the holy one, they must be false gods. 
 
CLERK 
To stray us from the one true path! 
 
EDEN 
Actually, My God Status Just Got Revoked for a bit, I forgot to 
buy the subscription package. Totally not a god.  
 
SHAWN 
Nope, not a god, just a superior holographic program.  
 
QUIRK 
Lead Them...Into The Bunker. 
 
MAGNOLIA  
That Sounds Bad.  
 
 12

QUIRK, CLERK and JERK lead them behind a hill, and show them a 
vault door. They stand aghast, and it opens up. QUIRK, CLERK and 
JERK push them inside.  
 
8.

INT. Bunker 
 
MAGNOLIA, SHAWN and EDEN enter the room, rolling the still 
unconscious JULIEN. They cautiously move closer into the room, 
but they can’t see much. The room is completely dark, besides 
the soft glow emanating out of JULIEN’S Machinery. 
 
SHAWN 
It’s a dark room. We All Stay Together. Monsters like picking 
off people if they split up.  
 
MAGNOLIA 
How do you know that, holo-film cliches?  
 
EDEN 
It is pretty common knowledge. And Holofilms are great.  
 
MAGNOLIA 
Set Phasers To Stun.  
 
EDEN looks at MAGNOLIA.  
 
MAGNOLIA 
Eden, Set Fists To Stun. 
 
EDEN 
I think we all know, that I do not have a stun setting. 
 
SHAWN 
Yeah, if she had one, wouldn’t we have already stopped her from 
talking so much? 
 
 13

EDEN 
Not that kind of stun setting, I was trying to say, that people 
either don’t fight me or die horribly.  
 
VOICE 
I hope that I don’t have to fight you then. 
 
MAGNOLIA 
Who’s that? 
 
A man steps out of the shadows. He’s wearing a green wraparound 
uniform, like Kirk’s from the original series. 
 
MAN 
I’m Commander Campbell of The Federation Starship Nautilus.  
Did you come to get me out of here? I see the uniforms changed. 
Must have confused the natives. 
 
MAGNOLIA 
Federation? There are more of us left?  
 
CAM 
What? The federation was thriving last time I- 
Oh, oh no.  
 
EDEN 
Oh, Oh, No,​ -What? 
 
CAM 
I placed myself in cryostasis to survive the crash, and the 
computer said I had been in it for two hours, but-  
Oh, god, I knew something was wrong with that cryo-chamber! 
What year is it? 
 
MAGNOLIA 
2669.  
 
 14

CAM 
Oh, oh my god. Oh my god. I’ve been in that broken cryo-chamber 
for a lot longer than I thought. I woke up two weeks ago, and- 
 
SHAWN 
Calm down. Start at the beginning.  
CAM  
Okay. I’ve been in the ice since 2278, so bear with me.  
Our ship was investigating an alien threat called the Tzenkethi.  
 
EDEN 
Zencatme?  
 
MAGNOLIA 
Tzenkethi. Alien Warrior Race run by an Autarch.  
 
CAM 
They fired on us, and we crashed. I used a stasis pod to eject 
myself. And I guess I slept too long. Out of nowhere, the 
inhabitants consider me a god, and shove me in here.  
 
EDEN 
So, what is this place? 
 
CAM 
I don’t know. However, because I’m a god to these people, I have 
tricked them into building 32 ion generation thrusters. I’m 
flying a planet. And once I activate the necessary controls, all 
their memory of me will be wiped, and the prime directive 
remains intact.  
 
MAGNOLIA 
Sweet.  
 
EDEN 
What do you need our help with?  
 
CAM 
Well, I don’t have the power to do it.  
 15

 
MAGNOLIA 
We can fix that. 
 
She flips open her communicator. 
 
MAGNOLIA (Cont.) 
Gabe, beam us to the nearest source of deuterium nearby. 
 
GABE (V.O.) 
Okay, would you like to suffocate?  
 
EDEN 
C’mon, it’s obvious the deuterium is underground, Commander. 
 
MAGNOLIA 
It doesn’t matter, I guess. Gabe, where’s the nearest deuterium 
mine? 
 
GABE (V.O.) 
Primitive People mining explosive deuterium? I’m not beaming you 
there, it goes against starfleet safety regulations. 
 
SHAWN  
Hi, ​buddy, ​are you talking about starfleet regulations when 
Starfleet doesn’t exist? 
 
GABE (V.O.) 
Yes, Captain’s Orders.  
 
SHAWN 
If there’s a starfleet safety regulation around here, it’s you, 
crapface- 
 
MAGNOLIA (Interrupting) 
And Enough of that! 
Can you get Alexa to calculate the average of deuterium 
available per square mile? 
 
 16

GABE (V.O.) 
Sure. 
 
Over the communicator, we hear GABE knocking things over.  
The rumbling continues until he returns to his console.  
 
GABE (V.O.) 
Alexa, can you calculate the average of deuterium available per 
square mile? 
 
ALEXA (V.O.) 
Three. 
 
GABE (V.O.) 
There you go, the average is three.  
 
MAGNOLIA 
That doesn’t help! Three- ​What​-?  
 
ALEXA (V.O.) 
Three Blind Mice- 
Three Blind Mice- 
See how they run- 
 
There’s a depowering noise. 
 
GABE (V.O.) 
Okay, I’m shutting Alexa off.  
 
CAM 
Okay. Can I have a phaser?  
 
MAGNOLIA hands him one. 
 
EDEN 
Come on, you just met him!  
 
CAM 
Thanks.  
 17

 
SHAWN 
We need to get that deuterium, no matter what happens. Let’s 
stay on our target. 
 
 
MAGNOLIA 
But how can we get it without further hurting the culture of 
these natives? 
 
They turn, and see the bunker door open. A Man walks down and 
meets them. The lights slowly illuminate them. He’s a native. 
Another Follows him. 
 
MAN 
I’m Doctor Decoy and This is Mister Spook. You have been 
identified by our leaders as false gods.  
 
EDEN 
False Gods? What? 
 
DECOY 
You may not deny it. The vote was unanimous. Usually our 
religious leaders cannot agree on anything. 
 
SHAWN 
Hold on, Religious Leaders? Your Starfleet Fanboy-ness is a 
religion?  
 
MAGNOLIA 
Honestly, I’m surprised you didn’t catch that sooner. 
 
DECOY 
It matters not. You will be put to death, as decrees sections 
Eleven, Twenty Seven and Thirty One of The Starfleet Charter. 
 
EDEN 
Can I swear now?  
 
 18

MAGNOLIA 
No. 
 
EDEN 
**** It!  
 
9. 9. 
 
EXT. Outside The Bunker  
 
EDEN, CAM, MAGNOLIA and SHAWN are chained up by several natives,  
JULIEN is dragged around on a wagon. He’s still unconscious. We 
pan upwards, and see a massive, Roman-Esque Coliseum. The Group 
Goes Inside... 
 
10.   
10. 
 
EXT. Coliseum 
 
The Coliseum is outdoors. It has no roof. Hundreds of natives in 
their original series Starfleet Uniforms sit in the seats, 
chanting maniacally. The Group is tied to Five Columns in the 
center of the arena.  
A woman in a Original Series Uniform Miniskirt walks up to them. 
 
WOMAN 
I am Commander BlueAura.  
 
This is pronounced exactly like ‘Uhura.’ 
 
EDEN (To Cam) 
How could you even tolerate this- 
 
CAM 
They thought I was a god until you showed up!  
 
SHAWN 
Less Bickering, More Let’s Get The Heck out of here-ing.  
 19

 
BLUEAURA 
Do you have any final requests before we terminate you, false 
gods? 
 
 
MAGNOLIA 
Yeah, I want to know something. Why do you really think that 
We’re Gods. What happened here? This used to be a city filled 
with completely ordinary business types, at least judging by the 
rubble! Why did this suddenly become a Starfleet WannaBe 
Convention?  
 
BLUEAURA 
No Requests Have Been Levied.  
 
MAGNOLIA 
My Only Request is that you answer the question! 
 
SHAWN 
My only request is that you let us go!  
 
BLUEAURA 
This is contradictory.  
 
MAGNOLIA 
Ignore Him, Just Tell Me! What are you people?  
 
CAM 
Ignore the two of them, according to the starfleet charter 
Paragraph 923, we have a chance of survival utilizing the 
traditional combative traditions of Mr. uh, Spook’s species.  
I declare a Pon Farr Duel! 
  
There is audible gasps. 
 
MAGNOLIA 
Are you made of stupid? 
 
 20

CAM (Whispering) 
I’m buying us time.  
 
MAGNOLIA (Loudly) 
Buddy, You’re buying something you can’t fricking afford.  
 
BLUEAURA 
Let the Pon Farr Duel Commence! Mr. Spook!  
 
MR SPOOK enters, brandishing a Vulcan Blade. It’s Called a 
Lirpa.  
He’s wearing Gladiator Armour. 
 
BLUEAURA 
The Accused Will Remain Unarmed.  
 
SHAWN 
Are you kidding me? Vulcans are three times faster and stronger 
than humans, and you’re giving him gladiator gear? At least let 
the man have an even playing field! You may have based your 
culture on Starfleet but you’ve completely misunderstood it!  
 
QUIRK, JERK, and CLERK yell out.  
 
QUIRK 
Kill them! 
 
JERK 
Shoot them in the face! 
 
CLERK 
ATTTAAACK! 
 
BLUEAURA 
No, the attack should be fair!  
 
JERK 
I outrank you! 
 
 21

CLERK 
I outrank you too! 
 
QUIRK 
I do too! 
 
  
SPOOK 
And I’m Famous! 
 
MAGNOLIA 
Wait… I figured it out! 
I figured out who these people are!  
 
QUIRK 
Kill her! 
 
JERK 
Kill her! 
 
CLERK 
Kill her too!  
 
MAGNOLIA 
Come on! Wouldn’t you want to know your history? You’ve been 
having an apocalypse for almost 400 years.  
 
DECOY 
Come on, I wanna hear.  
 
QUIRK 
You’re a doctor, not a historian!  
 
DECOY 
**** You! 
 
JERK 
Okay, We’ll Listen. But We’re Still Going To Kill You, Right?

EXT. THE PLANET - PAST 
 
The Planet’s Many Chicago Buildings Look Stable. The City is 
Thriving.  
 
TEXT APPEARS: Previously on Star Trek 
 
KIRK, SPOCK and MCCOY walk into view using archive footage. 
 
MAGNOLIA (V.O.)  
400 Years Ago, The Original Trio of Heroes Resided On The USS 
Enterprise. Kirk, Spock and Mccoy. One day, they visited a 
planet. The entirety of the planet was based on 1930s Chicago. 
The Planet was originally visited by a Ship called the 
Horizon... 
 
 
A man named OMNYX is talking to them.  
 
OMNYX 
That’s The Book. 
 
SPOCK 
Captain? Gangsters. Chicago. Mobs. Published 1992. Where Did You 
Get This? 
 
OXMYX 
The Book. They left it, the other ship. The Horizon. 
  
 23

SPOCK 
This is the contamination, Captain. Astonishing. An entire 
culture based on this.  
 
MCCOY 
You said they were imitative, and the book- 
 
OXMYX 
I don't want any more cracks about the Book.  
 
Cut To Later 
 
MCCOY 
One book on the gangs of Chicago did all this. It's amazing.  
 
SPOCK 
They evidently seized upon that one book as the blueprint for an 
entire society.  
 
MCCOY 
It's the Bible.  
 
KIRK 
In old Chicago, conventional government almost broke down. The 
gangs nearly took over.  
 
MCCOY 
Yeah, well, Oxmyx is the worst gangster of all.  
 
SPOCK 
We may quarrel with Mister Oxmyx' methods, but his goal is 
essentially the correct one. This society must become united or 
it will degenerate into total anarchy.  
 
KIRK 
If this society broke down as the result of the Horizon's 
influence, then the Federation's responsible, and we've got to 
do something to straighten this mess out.  
 24

Later.... 
 
MAGNOLIA (V.O.) 
The crew soon decided to blend in. 
 
MCCOY, SPOCK and KIRK walk in wearing gangster suits. 
 
 
 
KIRK 
All right! All right! All right! All right! Now the 
Federation's taking over whether you like it or not. You people, 
you've been running this planet like a piecework factory. From 
now on, it's going to be under one roof. You're going to run it 
like a business. That means you're going to make a profit. 
  
TEPO 
And what's your percentage?  
 
KIRK  
I'm cutting the Federation in for forty percent. You got any 
objections?  
 
TEPO 
Yeah! I hear a lot of talk, but all I see here is you and a 
couple of your boys. I don't see no Federation.  
 
KRAKO 
Listen. They got a ship. I know. I was there.  
 
OXMYX 
Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Tepo's got a point. All we ever 
seen is them.  
 
TEPO 
What, a couple of boys?  
 
KIRK takes out his communicator. 
 
 25

KIRK  
Scotty, this is Kirk. Scotty, put the ship's phasers on stun. 
Fire a burst in a one-block radius around these coordinates.  
 
SCOTT 
Right away, sir. Scott out. 
 
The street outside is filled with green light, and everyone 
falls down. The watching bosses are stunned into silence for a 
moment. 
KRAKO 
Gee, that's some trick.  
 
OXMYX 
Hey, did you see that? 
  
KIRK 
They're not dead, just knocked out for a while. But they might 
just as well have been that way if we wanted them to.  
 
OXMYX 
Okay, okay, Kirk, so we get the message. Now, what was this 
syndicate deal you were talking about? 
 
MAGNOLIA (V.O.) 
Kirk negotiated peace with you. But he forgot you have a highly 
imitative culture. You used a Historical Document As A Bible.  
And Soon, Stories About Captain Kirk Came Along. And They Became 
Distorted. Kirk became Quirk, Or Jerk, or Clerk. Your different 
Religious Beliefs, altering over 400 years. 
 
CUT TO: Religious Worshippers Following QUIRK, and another 
following JERK, and another for CLERK.  
 
CUT TO: These Religious People Charging, and attacking each 
other.  
 
MAGNOLIA (V.O.) 
War about these beliefs decimated your planet. 
 26

 
CUT TO: A Bright Green Explosion. 
 
FADE OUT:

MAGNOLIA 
Now do you get it? If you don’t let us go, we can’t fix your 
culture. And endless war about useless historical figures 
because of us won’t happen.  
 
QUIRK 
You’re wrong! 
 
SHAWN 
Do you have no brain cells, man?  
 
MAGNOLIA 
Now. Let us go. Please. You’ve had your piece of the action, and 
it may have given you belief, but in the long run it hurt you. 
Let us go.  
 
DECOY 
Oh my god. 
 
JERK (Hamming Like William Shatner) 
Belief in our gods is never wrong! I won’t let you! I won’t let 
you!

CLERK 
I’m Captain Clerk! ​I’m Captain Clerk! 
 
SPOOK stands there. Dumbfounded. He slowly looks up. And Raises 
His Hand. He performs a skewed vulcan salute. He walks forward. 
And Hands Magnolia a communicator. 
 
SPOOK 
Live Long and Prosper. 
 
 
 
MAGNOLIA 
Magnolia to Kingstown. Five To Beam Up. Without Being Tied Up, 
Please. 
 
MAGNOLIA, EDEN, SHAWN, JULIEN and CAMPBELL dematerialize and 
their ropes hit the ground.  
 
JERK 
Spook? Why’d you do that? 
 
SPOOK 
It is illogical for this to continue. They can fix things. 
 
BLUEAURA 
Let’s hope they can. 
 
FADE OUT:

INT. Kingstown Hallways 
 
MAGNOLIA exits the transporter room. She walks up to KENNETH. 
 
MAGNOLIA 
Spook left us something. And I have a solution. 
 28

 
KENNETH 
Figure it out. Your mission, Commander.  
 
She Exits. 
 
14. 14. 
 
EXT. KINGSTOWN flies through space.  
 
MAGNOLIA (V.O.) 
Personal Log. Mr. Spook has supplied us with the Deuterium we 
needed to fix Alexa. But I’ve found something far better here. 
Understanding of a culture. And How Even The Best- The 
Enterprise- Can Make Mistakes. The Prophets Know We Will, For 
Heck’s Sake. But Anyway. Campbell’s thrusters that he built 
knocked the planet off it’s axis. 23rd Century Engineering, 
Fellas. I’ve learned a lot here, but what I’m happiest about, is 
the fact that I’ve left Mr. Spook and the people of Sigma Iotia 
II a parting gift. 
 
15.  15. 
 
EXT. Sigma Iotia II 
 
The Original Series Inspired People Crowd Around A Box. 
 
MAN 
It just appeared!  
 
WOMAN 
Out of nowhere! 
 
MAN 2 
A minute ago! 
 
MAN 3 
What is it? 
 
 29

MR. SPOOK steps out of the crowd and walks towards the box. He 
slowly opens it. QUIRK begrudgingly follows him. 
SPOOK raises a book out of the box. 
We see it in the light.  
It’s two books. Copies of: 
 
 
 
 
 
Imitative Cultures, And The People Of Sigma Iota II 
By Doctor Leonard Mccoy and Spock of Vulcan 
 
And  
Learning How To Be Yourself 
By Magnolia Longworth 
 
QUIRK 
The people of the stars have delivered again.  
 
SPOOK 
Indeed.  
 
QUIRK 
The New Bibles Have Arrived. 
 
The people on the planet smile. They don’t know what it’s like 
to live without imitation. They’re eager to learn. They sit 
down, and begin to read.
