Is it a new one this week? My stupid local channel is showing the Bachelor twice, instead. Madness, madness I tell you. ---

Yes, _The Council_. We meet the sphere builders. Hoshi does a pole dance. ---

Ah yes - but will Travis be joining her? ---

No. With T’Pol leading the MAACO on an away mission to a sphere, and Quantum and Hoshi maing a presentation to the Council, I would assume Tripp is in command of NX-01. Since this is already a spoiler thread, I’ll spoil this week’s ep: We meet the sphere builders. Really. Not a joke. Part of the arc is come to fruition, Mr Daniels. ---

> [@Cervaise](#): > > I thought it was a reverse-polarity Bussard pole manifold dance. You only reverse-polarity if the pole dance causes the impulse manifold to discharge. While the discharge is harmless (if made into space) the resulting elementary particles do have a tendency to muck about with and adhere to any local matter. ^:dubious:^ ---

> [@Cervaise](#): > > What, they don’t have Clorox in the future? You’re surprised? It reminds me how Star Trek can use old technology or acquire new technology in one episode and then forget it in the next. I just wonder how they managed to build starships and forget the concept of a circuit breaker! I think they now use Cloroxium-H, but it doesn’t work under zero-G. You have to be under gravity, in the correct orientation, and you must inscribe the correct sigils on the affected area. So, be sure your moons are together, and make sure your pen is up so the fluid flows smoothly. ---

A woman walks into Quark’s and asks for a double-entendre. So he gives her one. :dubious: ---
