Sean Kelley as Cmdr. Crick Watson and Shmax
Eli Mandel as Acting Security Chief Rip Stiply and Valcomer

I'm, yeah, don't just bang on that. We're so exciting. Just put us in a standard orbit around Trill. Okay. Okay, so exciting. Okay, go standard orbit around. It's a little bit around what? Trill. What? It's the planet that we're going to crash into. Yeah, I got it, man. All right, Captain. Great. Well, here we are delivering medical supplies. They had recently an outbreak of Tavarian plague, so we have to make sure they get everything they need. Mr. Watson, is the coordination effort going together for that? Yep, it sure is. We're taking a shuttlecraft down, so we need to put together a small wait team to distribute the supplies. Great. Figure, you know, it's a federation planet, so you should probably go, Captain, because you're, like, the head of the ship, the head dignitary. And because it's a disease thing. |
| 1:45.8 | I'll probably be going. |
| 2:01.9 | I just don't know what to wear. Is it going to be cold? It's going to be hot. We should wear your standard uniform. Okay. I think you'll be fine. I don't know. I just don't want to be chilly. Well, you've got that little coat, too, the little blue coat. That's true. that'll help out. Okay. It might be fun to bring in some pie hole because it's her first day. |
| 2:01.6 | Yeah! I don't want to say anything, but I think my eyes said, please. Yeah. And she's a navigation officer, so maybe, you know, can help out finding where we're going. North, west, south, east. Okay, great. Got them on. know secure everything, so, like, Rip should probably go just to keep us all safe. |
| 2:19.5 | If it's a Federation planet, there's not going to be any danger down there, right? I mean, you know, there's crime on Federation planets sometimes. If there's any intrigue on this mission, I'm going to be pissed off. And then, you know, it's Trill. some, like, maybe he wouldn't have a job to do, but Lorham maybe? |
| 2:34.9 | Well, I think half the people he said aren he wouldn't have a job to do, but Lorham maybe? |
| 2:53.1 | Well, I think half the people he said aren't going to have a job to do, so let's go ahead. Captain Baxter to Lieutenant Lorham. Yeah. Can you meet the away team in Transport of Room 3? Can we do two? I'm sorry, Transport a Room. I'm sorry, Transport of Room 2. Sure thing. Where are we going? We're in synchronous orbit around Trill right now. |
| 4:31.6 | Around Trill? Yeah, your home planet, so we figured you'd want to be part of the away mission. The planet that I'm from? Yeah, I know it has the same species, but... That I turned my back on. Hey, Lorham, do you have any idea what the weather's like down there? Is that Arlene? Yeah. Yeah, it's Arlene. So I'm just speaking into the captain's communicator. Saline, I haven't been back to Trill. You know, but the climate's like the same. In 12 years. I just said he turned his back on the... Oh, yeah, what happened? Captain, by the way, in addition to the disease, I guess there's a succession crisis. Yeah, I guess the emperor passed away, like, a week or two ago, and so there's... Did Federation planets have emperors? Yeah, as long as they have, like, an elected representative to go to Federation Parliament. Did the emperor have a symbionion? I think so. I know not all Trills get symbiants, but I would assume that if you were the emperor, you get one. Are you guys whispering up there? No, no, no, no, no. We're just subspace interference. Yeah. Yeah. Blam-blam. Okay, that checks Blam-a-blam-o. Well, anyway, I swore I would never come back to my home planet of Trill. Oh, well, you're here, so do you want to beam down? Oh, come on. Who is that?
