Starting point is 00:00:00 Because, like, they're showing them around the ship or some shit, and Kirk's like taking them into the turbo lift or whatever, which I always love the TOS turbo lift because you got a whole on to that lever, like it's the old timey subway, which is great. kind of makes sense but also like I was thinking about this in this episode specifically where no one like you're just in this enormous ship and like they're getting hit and nobody has any seat belts whatsoever or anything to hold on to like everyone just rattling around like fucking jigsaw pieces they should like make everything like cushioned yes like it's like oh dude it's like a bed ship right carpeting everywhere I would say take out the middle man oh that's that's pretty good Jim boy yeah I'll get on a bed ship Get that sativa nonsense.
Starting point is 00:01:01 Get some of that Romulan mescaline going. Oh, yeah. The good thing, Jim, is we're already wearing pajamas all the time. I mean, I, wait, you guys sleep in these outfits, right? I do. Wait a minute. You're trying to tell me that every date of this mission thus far, you're wearing underwear underneath these things.
Starting point is 00:01:23 What a waste of time. Am I? Wait, 400 people of this ship, Jim Boy. I'm the only one freeballing. I for one love the smell of vinegar. I thought we were all familiar. But I really feel like every single episode someone should be getting their head jammed

Starting point is 00:02:00 Oh, that dude hates his job. No, but the thing I was saying is so they're taking this guy around the ship and they pass by a woman officer. Yes. And she's like, oh, hi, Captain. And he's like, hello. And then the guy... The dude, he's fucking horny is shit.
Starting point is 00:02:15 Dude, it's awesome because he's just like, a woman. And then, God bless, terrible 1960s television. The score just goes... Like a fucking sex hole. But here's the thing. That's fine. Like it's not great, but it's fine. But the subplot of this episode is the most misogynist thing that this show has done to date, which is the sexy woman computer that they have. Oh, dude. That ruins everything. Oh, so it's like they went to some like star base or some planet to get some upgrades and ship, Kirk is like, and the thing that was really fucked up is this way station was completely run by women. And there's, decided to play a game. And, like, every time he talks to the computer, it's like, oh, don't you want some hot hunk of man? And she, like, the computer giggles.
Starting point is 00:03:08 But, like, look, I know it's a good thing to give the Lebanese electronics shop your business. I get that. You got to take something like this to the geek squad.
