 While at a Halloween Party this past weekend (Star Trek Theme) this
 parody was floating around so I grabbed a copy 'cause I thought you
 guys out in netland might like it.
 Some people might take offense at the way it flames the show and
 one person in particular (you figure it out), but I got a kick out
 of it.
 Sooooo enjoy it or hate it for what it is...take it with a grain of salt
 if you don't like it, but after reading Mr. Videos posting of the first
 episode we will see...Can We Talk??? Pregnant by a light bulb!!;-)  I
 can see the headlines in the National Enquirer now;-) ;-), ...The
 promised "new improved" second season looks pretty scary to me!!!:->
 
 Any way, enough of that said.  Here's to the unknown writer whoever
 he/she/they/it/whatever  may be. Hope you enjoy it, and if you don't
 feel free to flame me...I move in 2 weeks so if I don;t go out with a
 bang I might as well go up in flames ;->!!!!!   Don't get me  wrong,
 for the most part i like the show (and I was the one who found and posted
 the thing...oh welllllll) and this is definately not meant to be taken
 seriously...I'm sure it was written for fun (perhaps in a moment of
 frustration with the show) and that is the way I hope this is taken.

 ACT ONE
 
 FADE IN:
 
 1    EXT. ENTERPRISE, PINK CLOUD                                               1
 
 The Goodship Enterprise is in orbit around a big, fluffy pink cloud,
 
 NOSE PICAR (VO)
 Captain's Law, Stardate 1960:  We are in
 close orbit around an unknown form.  It
 looks to be a large, pink, fluffy cloud.
 
 DISSOLVE TO:
 
 2   INT. BRIDGE                                                                2
 
 Captain JEAN-NOSE PICAR is in on of the several command seats.  His
 first officer, Commander BILLY BOB BIKER, is next to him.  All other
 crew members are at their regular stations.
 
 NOSE PICAR (VO)
 (continuing)
 I have sent Lt. Geordi La Porge to take a
 real look at the cloud.  So, since there is
 still a half hour before lunch will be served
 on the Aloha Deck, we will unfortunately
 infestigate.  Personally, I'm bored.
 
 3   M2S--NOSE PICAR, BIKER                                                     3
 
 BILLY BOB BIKER is currently watching the large viewing screen.  NOSE
 PICAR is buffing his nails.  He is tired of buffing his nails, but he
 continues nonetheless.
 
 BIKER
 (as he brushes a lock of thick black hair
 from his brow.  It was hanging Kirkishly
 over his eyes.  We can't have that)
 The pink cloud is making me tired, sir.
 Can we please change the channel?
 
 My thoughts exactly.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 (as he examines his handy work.  No pun
 intended.)
 Huh?
 
 BIKER
 I'm bored, Captain.  What are we waiting for?
 
 Annoying S.O.B. isn't he?
 
 NOSE PICAR
 (shrugging, continuing to buff)
 Calm down, Cumber Bun--
 
 BIKER
 That's Number One, sir.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 Whatever.
 
 Buffing is hard work, you know.
 
 Any-who...We're waiting for the blind one
 to come back.  He's looking out one of our
 windows to gat a real look at that cloud-
 thing.
 
 Biker looks perplexed.  Alright, more than usual anyway.
 
 BIKER
 Why not just have the android use ship's
 sensors on the cloud, sir?
 
 NOSE PICAR
 (throws his buffer at Biker and misses, of
 course.  Angry, fuming)
 This is not the time for rash actions, Cumber
 Bun.  And his name is Data!
 
 BIKER
 
 (pointing to his own chest)
 It's Number One, sir.
 
 Nose Picar tilts his head to one side in deep thought.  You know,
 the way your dog does.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 (shakes his head)
 No. No, I'm sure it's Data!
 
 Cumber Bun... er...oops...Number One sighs.  He gets up, walks to the
 large wooden wheel that steers the ship, and stands in front of it in
 that strange posture he always has--as if he were about to draw in a
 gun fight.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 Cumber Bun, why are you standing like that?
 
 BIKER
 (embarrassed)
 Chafing, sir.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 Ah.  Quite.
 (beat)
 Carry on.
 
 Nose Picar picks up a book he is reading in his spare time.  He begins
 to read (his lips moving) from Dr. Seuss goes to Vulcan.  "I will not
 live long and prosper, my middle name is not Foster.  I am not Silek
 son of Sam, I will not eat green eggs and ham!"
 
 4   ANGLE ON TURBOLIFT--GEORDI LA PORGE                                        4
 
 The shot pans and follows La Porge to the captain's chair.  He stands
 at attention, ready to report.
 
 GEORDI
 Lt. Geordi La Porge, reportin' as ordered,
 Massah Cap'n.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 I did not ask for you, I'm reading a
 chapter or two.
 
 DATA
 (turning from his science station)
 You asked him to check on the--on the-- on
 the--on the--on the--
 
 The crew member next to the android hits him on the head.
 
 --pink cloud.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 (turns angrily to Mr. Data)
 I knew that!
 (to La Porge)
 Report.
 
 GEORDI
 It was fantastic, suh.  I saws all sorts of
 colors.  And boy suh, I could've danced to it!
 
 NOSE PICAR
 Your number will come later in the show, La
 Porge. Now...
 
 Nose Picar did that dog tilt again.  Bad habits are hard to break and
 all that...
 
 What kinds of colors?
 
 GEORDI
 Well, Massah Cap'n, it's like nothin' I's
 ever seens befoa!
 
 NOSE PICAR
 Well, what color was it close to?
 
 GEORDI
 Suh, it was kinda close to the way your fried
 chicken is pinkish when its not really cooked.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 (dog tilt, again)
 Pinkish?
 
 GEORDI
 Like fresh watermelon, maybe?  Pinkish, suh.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 Pink?
 
 GEORDI
 Pink, suh!
 
 BIKER
 Pink?
 
 GEORDI
 Fluffy pink, suh!
 
 Data, believing that no one knows what pink means, turns again from his
 science station to explain.
 
 DATA
 Pink: A color.  Between white and red.
 Idiom:  A condition. Example:  In the
 pink.  Meaning:
 
 NOSE PICAR
 That's quite enough, Number One.  This is
 not the time for rash explanations!
 
 DATA
 It's Data, sir.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 (turning to Biker and exclaims)
 See. I told you it was Data, Cumber Bun!
 
 Biker's eyes begin to fill with tears.
 
 DATA
 Captain, If I may, I believe I can Tell you
 what the cloud is.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 Then go ahead.  Make it so.  So it is
 written so it shall be done!
 
 DATA
 I believe tha cloud to be the personalities
 of the crew.  It is a conglomeration of the
 very human qualities we shed to take on this
 mission.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 I don't remember shedding my human qualities.
 
 DATA
 Perhaps you never had any, sir.  However, the
 rest of the crew, excluding my android self, of
 course, had to give up all their passions,
 sensebilities, conflict, loyalities, in essence,
 their humanness, to the Great Turd of the Galaxy.
 
 BIKER
 Who's the Great Turd?
 
 DATA
 All we know Commander, is that he has grey hair
 and wears shirts from the 1960's.  You know, the
 kind with the large collars and flower patterns?
 
 NOSE PICAR
 (tapping his insignia/communicator/apple peeler)
 Nose Picar to Counlelor Goi.  Report to the
 bridge.
 
 Suddenly the turbolift doors open and COUNSELOR GOI walks to Nose
 Picar.
 
 GOI
 Yes sir?
 
 NOSE PICAR
 What do you feel, Counselor?
 
 GOI
 I feel fine, sir.  How are you today?
 
 NOSE PICAR
 No, no!  What do you feel from the cloud?
 
 GOI
 The pink one?  Nothing.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 Aren't you supposed to have Psi powers?
 
 GOI
 Oh, that?  No, I was just borrowing those
 from Lt. Ilia from the first movie.
 
 DATA
 (interrupting)
 Sir, the cloud is sending us a message.  They
 want us to take them back.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 No!  We can't let that happen.  Turd forbid that
 we be human.  Raise the shields.  Get us the hell
 out of here.  Let's go somewhere for lunch.
 
 GEORDI
 Yes, Massah Cap'n.
 
 Geordi takes the steering wheel and steps on the gas and the Enterprise
 leaves the cloud behind.

 NOSE PICAR
 Well, I'm glad that's over.  You know Cumber
 Bun--
 
 BIKER
 Number One, sir.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 Whatever.
 (beat)
 You know, we're better without humanness.
 
 BIKER
 How so, Captain?
 
 NOSE PICAR
 We're perfect.  Perfect, Cumber Bun!
 
 BIKER
 It's Number One, sir.  Number One.
 
 NOSE PICAR
 Whatever.

 NEW OPENING THEME FOR STAR DREK:  THE DEGENERATION
 (figure out the tune yourself ;-))
 
 Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
 a tale of a fateful trip,
 that started just a year ago,
 created by a drip.
 
 The mate was a mighty Brainless man,
 the skipper Dull and Poor,
 they started out,
 set sail that day,
 for a fifteen year tour.  A fifteen year tour.
 
 The fans, they started getting tough,
 the Enterprise was tossed,
 if not for the port of syndication
 the show would be lost.  The show would be lost.
 
 The show lay-ground at the bottom of the barrel,
 and there it finds its plots.
 With Nose Picar,
 and Cumber Bun,
 the Android,
 the Blind One.
 The Betazoid, and the rest are here on Wesley's Isle.
 
 ===============================================================================
 
 So fans, there you have it.  Fresh from a Halloween party and the crazy mind
 of some one out there.   If you're the writer and see this let us know who
 you are so credit can be given where credit is due.  If you want to pass this
 on feel free.  If there were copies handed out at the party to distribute
 as much as wanted I would guess the writer wants it passed on.
