0:17.0	Certainly, sir.
0:18.0	I need you to keep this under your hand. Okay. Should I go on? You don't? It's not a literal hot. Right, nope. I figured that out right as I was asking. There's going to be an ambassador coming on board. Okay. From the planet Nelks. Oh, Nelks? Nelks. All right. Apparently, part of their culture is...
0:39.3	We're in my room.
0:40.3	We don't need to whisper.
0:41.3	Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I was just whispering because you were whispering. Yeah, sorry about that. I was a little bashful about the hat thing, so... Oh, don't worry about it. Okay. I'm just really thinking about why would I ever... Sorry, go on.
0:50.5	Apparently people from Nelks are very private.
0:54.0	They are very shy.
0:56.1	They are very particular. Captain, can you keep it down in there? We can hear you out on the bridge. Let's go back to whispering. Yeah. They don't even want to interact with the crew.

Air is actually good for them. Captain, I've been monitoring your social media presence, like you ask me to do. That picture of the bumps on your butt has definitely gone viral.
2:07.6	The video that the doctor took of it has over 100,000 hits on Facebook.
2:09.2	I just thought you should know.
2:10.4	Okay, so... It's got a lot of comments, too.
