|
||
|
||
Fade into the usual starfield with the Enterprise traveling along.
|
||
|
||
Picard(voice only): Captain's Log Stardate 41038.4. The Enterprise is heading
|
||
to Alpha Beta Gammadata in response to a distress call from
|
||
its inhabitants..the Alpha Beta Gammadatans...
|
||
|
||
Cut to a shot of the bridge, where Data is playing with a Chinese Finger Trap,
|
||
Geordie is playing a video game on the Main Viewer, Troi is opening a pack of
|
||
cigarettes, and Riker is sleeping in his chair.
|
||
|
||
Data: Hey, ah, Geordie. Did you know that the Finger Trap was invented by, ah,
|
||
Chin'gart of China around the 4th Century?
|
||
|
||
Geordie: Gee, Data, I didn't know that...
|
||
|
||
Troi: That's cuz he made it up, Geordie...he doesn't actually know all this
|
||
information he keeps astounding you with.
|
||
|
||
Data: Hey, contraire, mon frair... all my information is factual.
|
||
|
||
Picard comes onto the bridge.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Wake up, Riker!
|
||
|
||
Riker suddenly sits up in his chair, Troi crushes her pack of cigarettes.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Anything to report, Number Twelve?
|
||
|
||
Riker: Yeah, I had this dream that I was covered in honey and Troi was a real
|
||
big bumble bee.
|
||
|
||
Troi gasps.
|
||
|
||
Picard: No, I mean about our mission.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Ah, no. Sorry.
|
||
|
||
Picard shrugs. Worf comes onto the bridge.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Afternoon, everyone.
|
||
|
||
Crew: WORF!
|
||
|
||
Geordie: Whats your story, Worf?
|
||
|
||
Worf: Klingon orders drink, Klingon gets drink, Klingon drinks.
|
||
|
||
Worf goes to his station and pours himself a beer, then notices a blinking
|
||
light.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, there's a subspace message coming in from Starfleet Headquarters.
|
||
|
||
Picard: On screen.
|
||
|
||
The viewer changes to a shot of Admirel Hogan. (Hulk Hogan)
|
||
Hogan is looking off screen to the left(he's in profile)
|
||
|
||
Picard: Greetings, Admirel. What seems to be the trouble.
|
||
|
||
Hogan: Let me just tell ya this, Captain...the inhabitants of Alpha Beta
|
||
Gammadata are really getting flustered because some unknown ship has
|
||
really torn up their planet. (turns to face the camera) Your orders are
|
||
to get to their planet as fast as you can and assess the situation.
|
||
Early reports seem to point towards the Borg.
|
||
|
||
Picard: The Borg? We haven't seen them since my first voyage. This could
|
||
present quite a problem.
|
||
|
||
Hogan: Well, ya know that's exactly right, Picard. And don't forget those nasty
|
||
Romulans could be in the area too.
|
||
|
||
Picard: I always anticipate a reunion with Sela.
|
||
|
||
Hogan: Whatever...anyway..if it is the Borg, we must defeat them...so be
|
||
prepared to endulge in the three demandments of the training, the
|
||
prayers, and the vitamins, and if you run in to them, you tell them from
|
||
me this one thing...Whatcha gonna do..when the Federation runs wild on
|
||
you. Hogan out! (poses)
|
||
|
||
The screen switches to the FOX logo.
|
||
|
||
Picard: It appears we have quite a task ahead of us...LaForge..warp ten to
|
||
Alpha Beta Gammadata.
|
||
|
||
Fade into the title sequence and credits.
|
||
Commercials
|
||
Fade back into an exterior shot of the Enterprise..titles appear..
|
||
THE BEST OF BOTH BARS
|
||
|
||
Cut to transporter room
|
||
|
||
O'Brien(still played by Leslie Nielson): Coordinates are set, Commander.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Swell. Alright, lets find out what happened down there, O'Brien.
|
||
|
||
O'Brien: I thought I'd stay here for this one.
|
||
|
||
Riker: No I mean me and the away team.
|
||
|
||
O'Brien: Oh, yes of course.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Energize.
|
||
|
||
The away team disappears in the transporter beam, then materializes on the
|
||
planet's surface, which is all torn up.
|
||
|
||
LaForge: What a mess. You'd think they'd at least sweep up when they knew we
|
||
were coming.
|
||
|
||
Data: Well, Geordie, the Alpha Beta Gammadatans are a, ah, slovenly people by
|
||
nature.
|
||
|
||
Riker: I don't think this is the people's fault.
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Oh, here we go...blame the animals.
|
||
|
||
Riker: No, I mean I bet it was the Borg.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Well, this place is totalled. Can we go home now?
|
||
|
||
Riker: I guess so. (taps comm badge) Captain, this planet is in ruins, but we
|
||
can't be sure it was the Borg.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Will, during the time you were down there, the Hood arrived and brought
|
||
us an expert on the Borg. Commander Shelby found a Borg signature.
|
||
Number Twelve...its them. Beam back here at once.
|
||
|
||
Riker: You got it, sir. Riker out. (taps badge again) O'Brien, beam us back.
|
||
|
||
O'Brien: Alright.
|
||
|
||
The away team beams back. Cut to bridge where Picard talking is talking to a
|
||
blonde woman. Riker and the away team enter from the turbolift.
|
||
|
||
Crew: WORF!!
|
||
|
||
Worf waves to everyone.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Well, Captain, where's Shelby?
|
||
|
||
The blonde woman turns around. Shelby is played by Kelly Bundy(Christina
|
||
Applegate)
|
||
|
||
Shelby: That's me.
|
||
|
||
Riker's jaw drops.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Uh....hi there. I'm Commander William T. Riker.
|
||
|
||
Shelby: Yes, Captain Pontiac has told me so much about you.
|
||
|
||
Riker: You mean Captain Picard...
|
||
|
||
Shelby: No, he told me about you!
|
||
|
||
Riker: Right...so Captain, you mentioned a Borg signature...
|
||
|
||
Picard: Yes, Number Twelve. Look at the viewscreen.
|
||
|
||
Cut to viewscreen where carved out on the planet's surface is the words...
|
||
THE BORG WERE HERE!
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, message coming in from Starfleet Command.
|
||
|
||
Picard: On screen.
|
||
|
||
Viewer switches to Admirel Hogan.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Picard here...
|
||
|
||
Hogan: Ewwww!
|
||
|
||
Picard What can I do for you?
|
||
|
||
Hogan: Well, for starters, you can report your findings!
|
||
|
||
Picard: Admirel, the damage done to Alpha Beta Gammadata WAS done by the Borg.
|
||
|
||
Hogan: Then it seems like I got some bad news for you, bruddah!
|
||
|
||
Picard: What do you mean?
|
||
|
||
Hogan: I just received word that a big cube shaped vessel attacked a Ferengi
|
||
ship in sector 0.9.
|
||
|
||
Picard: That's in Federation space.
|
||
|
||
Hogan: Well, lemme tell ya this, Picard...your orders are to go to sector 0.9
|
||
and try to persuade the Borg to take a hike.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Understood, Admirel.
|
||
|
||
Hogan: And if somehow they make it past you, Mean Jean-Luc...the largest fleet
|
||
in the galaxy will be waiting in sector 0.7 to squeeze their heads like
|
||
a pimple.
|
||
|
||
Hogan rips off his dress shirt and poses as the WWF logo replaces him on the
|
||
screen.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Mr. LaForge, set a course for sector 0.9, warp nine.
|
||
|
||
The music reaches a peak as we fade out.
|
||
|
||
COMMERCIAL
|
||

Display scenes which show nothing scary about the movie.
|

Voice: The Scary Movie...starts Friday at a theatre near you.
|
||
|
||
Fade back in to the Enterprise coming out of Warp.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Well, where are they?
|
||
|
||
Worf: hey, there's a ship at 9000 kilometers.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Plot a course to intercept it.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, they've already moved to intercept US!
|
||
|
||
Shelby: How can you guys be thinking of football at a time like this?
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Sir, they are within visual range.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Put them on screen.
|
||
|
||
The screen switches to a shot of a small object in the distance.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Magnify.
|
||
|
||
LaForge gets out a HUGE magnifying lens and takes it up to the viewer..the Borg
|
||
ship is clearly seen now.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, they are hailing us.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Let's hear what they have to say.
|
||
|
||
Borg Voice(Bill Cosby): You...are directed to lower your shields...AND...
|
||
transport Captain Jean-Luc Picard to our ship, or you
|
||
will be destroyed. Any attempt to stop us will prove
|
||
futile.
|
||
|
||
Riker: I thought they were only interested in the Enterprise.
|
||
|
||
Data: Looks like they, ah...changed their mind.
|
||
|
||
Borg: Funny you should put it that way.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Cut communications.
|
||
|
||
Worf takes out scissors and cuts a cable going into his console.
|
||
|
||
Riker: We won't let them take you, sir.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Nice to know you care. So...ideas anyone?
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Let's have a yard sale.
|
||
|
||
Picard hits his own forehead with his palm.
|
||
|
||
Data: Yo, ah, Cappy...I got an idea.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Gee whiz, Data...what a surprise.
|
||
|
||
Data: We could separate the saucer section and attack them from both sides.
|
||
|
||
Riker: What? This thing can separate?
|
||
|
||
Picard: Shelby...you're the Borg expert..say something...
|
||
|
||
Shelby: Something.
|
||
|
||
Riker: How can you be a Borg expert when you've never met them. Come to think
|
||
of it, we only were around them for about 5 minutes.
|
||
|
||
Data: Plot inconsistency.
|
||
|
||
Shelby: Well, one thing's for sure...they inept quickly.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Adapt.
|
||
|
||
Shelby: No, it's true!
|
||
|
||
Riker: So, I guess the Main Deflector Dish is out of the question?
|
||
|
||
Data: Well, Willie, who's to say that this is the, ah, same ship? Maybe the
|
||
first one didn't tell the others about the dish.
|
||
|
||
Troi: Oh, I'm sure that when it pulled into base, its captain said, "Umm..I
|
||
accidentally hit a moon.
|
||
|
||
Picard: I'll take this into account.
|
||
|
||
The Borg clears its throat
|
||
|
||
Picard: Oops...almost forgot. Open channel, Worf. Borg commander, we can't obey
|
||
your directive.
|
||
|
||
Borg: Why not?
|
||
|
||
Picard: Because we don't want to.
|
||
|
||
Borg: Tough! Lower your shields and beam over! You will comply immediately!
|
||
|
||
Picard: No, I won't.
|
||
|
||
Borg: Please.
|
||
|
||
Picard: NO!
|
||
|
||
The Enterprise rocks and everyone falls to the floor.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, that did not come from the Borg ship?
|
||
|
||
Picard: Well, where did it come from?
|
||
|
||
The viewer switches to an external shot of the IRV Gary's Tavern.
|
||
|
||
Gary: Hello, Picard!
|
||
|
||
Fade out.
|
||
|
||
COMMERCIAL
|
||
Voice: This week on FOX, its the 23rd Annual Miss America Pageant with special
|
||
guest hosts, Mike Tyson and Clarence Thomas.
|
||
The show turns into a brawl.
|
||
|
||
Fade back into the viewscreen, now with Gary on it.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Cpt. Gary, what is the meaning of this?!
|
||
|
||
Gary: Take a wild guess.
|
||
|
||
LaForge: You want us to buy Avon products?!
|
||
|
||
Gary: Close, you are going to buy the farm.
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Ohhhhh...that's no so bad, I grew up on a farm.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Gary, can't you see we are a little busy?
|
||
|
||
Cut to Gary's bridge with Picard on screen
|
||
|
||
Gary: What do you mean?
|
||
|
||
Picard: Look behind you.
|
||
|
||
Gary: Oh no ya don't. I'm not falling for that old one.
|
||
|
||
Cut to external shot of Gary's Tavern with the Borg ship looming up behind it.
|
||
|
||
Gary: Do you think we were born yesterday?
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Sir, I doubt they were...they wouldn't be this tall.
|
||
|
||
Gary: Prepare to die!
|
||
|
||
The Borg ship fires at Gary's Tavern as it explodes into a million pieces.
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Ha! He MISSED!!!!
|
||
|
||
Borg: Alright, Picard. Now you see what we can do...are you ready to beam over
|
||
now?
|
||
|
||
Picard: The answer is still no!
|
||
|
||
A Borg suddenly materializes on the bridge of the Enterprise. It bears a
|
||
striking resemblance to Mark Lenard.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, behind you!
|
||
|
||
Worf takes out his phaser and shoots the Borg, who falls down. Another Borg
|
||
materializes and grabs Worf. A third Borg arrives and grabs Picard. Picard and
|
||
the Borg beam away as Worf gets free. The second Borg leaves, also.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Wow.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Commander...we must go get the Captain.
|
||
|
||
Data: Come on, Willie...lets beam over there and see what's up.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Alright, Worf, Data...lets go...
|
||
|
||
Troi: Oh, can I go too?
|
||
|
||
Riker: No
|
||
|
||
Troi: Oh, come on...
|
||
|
||
Riker: Alright, let's go.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Ummm, Commander..perhaps you should stay.
|
||
|
||
Riker: How come?
|
||
|
||
Worf: If we all leave, look who will be in charge.
|
||
|
||
All look at LaForge, who is picking his nose.
|
||
|
||
Riker: You're right. I'll stay here, and hurry up!
|
||
|
||
The away team exits. Cut to the Borg ship where the three materialize.
|
||
|
||
Troi: I sense someone is behind me.
|
||
|
||
Troi swings around and clubs Data, who falls to the floor.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Data, quit playing around, we have to find the Captain.
|
||
|
||
Data gets back up and they walk down a corridor.
|
||
|
||
Suddenly a Borg comes around the corner and approaches the away team.
|
||
|
||
Troi runs up and sticks her tongue out at it.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Counciller, duck!
|
||
|
||
Troi: That's Counciller Troi!!!
|
||
|
||
Worf shoots and Troi disintegrates.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Oops...
|
||
|
||
Worf hands his phaser to Data.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Umm...he did it.
|
||
|
||
Data: Hey, uh, Worfy, that is not true.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Shoot him, Data!
|
||
|
||
Data fires and the Borg falls down. Two more Borg come around the corner.
|
||
|
||
Data: Here, take this back, I have one.
|
||
|
||
Data hands the phaser back to Worf and pulls out his own.
|
||
|
||
Data: Wait a minute..this is my dust buster.
|
||
|
||
Data puts it back on his belt and takes out a phaser. They both shoot the Borg,
|
||
who have adapted to block the rays.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Rats.
|
||
|
||
Data looks around the floor.
|
||
|
||
Data: Where?
|
||
|
||
Suddenly Worf looks down the corridor beside him and sees Captain Picard,
|
||
dressed in a Borg outfit.
|
||
|
||
Worf: CAPTAIN!!!
|
||
|
||
Worf runs down the hall and trips over a box.
|
||
|
||
Data: Worf, you fell.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Really????
|
||
|
||
Worf gets back up and tries to grab Picard, but a force field is around him.
|
||
|
||
Data: We must beam back at once.
|
||
|
||
Worf taps his comm badge.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Two to beam back.
|
||
|
||
Worf and a Borg transport away...Data looks around at the many Borg coming at
|
||
him.
|
||
|
||
Data: Ummm...hi guys. You like trivia?
|
||
|
||
Suddenly Data beams away and the Borg comes back.
|
||
|
||
Cut to the Enterprise bridge.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Well, where are they?
|
||
|
||
Worf comes in off the turbolift.
|
||
|
||
Crew: WORF!!!
|
||
|
||
Worf: Hi everyone.
|
||
|
||
Data comes in off the turbolift.
|
||
|
||
Data: Afternoon everyone.
|
||
|
||
Crew: Booooo!!! Hissssss!!!!
|
||
|
||
Data slouches down in his chair.
|
||
|
||
Riker: So where's Troi?
|
||
|
||
Worf and Data exchange glances.
|
||
|
||
Worf: The Borg got her sir...
|
||
|
||
Data lowers his head and stares at the floor.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Oh...ok, well what happened to the Captain.
|
||
|
||
Data: Sir, he has been altered by the Borg.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Altered?
|
||
|
||
Data: Yeah, changed...
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, he IS a Borg.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Woah, this is strange.
|
||
|
||
Worf: I suggest we try the Main Deflector Dish again..RIGHT NOW!!!
|
||
|
||
Data: But what about the Captain?
|
||
|
||
Riker: If the Borg go into Warp we may never catch up.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, the Borg are hailing us.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Put them on screen.
|
||
|
||
The screen switches to a shot of several Borg lined up. Picard steps out from
|
||
between them and comes into the foreground.
|
||
|
||
Picard: I am Locutus of Borg. Resistance is futile. Your life, as it has been,
|
||
is over. From this time forward, you will service....US!
|
||
|
||
The music builds up slowly as we look at the faces of the crew. The camera gets
|
||
a profile of Riker and swings around to look him in the face.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Mr. Worf.....
|
||
|
||
Riker looks confused and looks up at the ceiling.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Fire, sir?
|
||
|
||
Riker: Oh, yeah....
|
||
|
||
TO BE CONTINUED...
|
||
|
||
Well, there it is. Part one of THE BEST OF BOTH BARS. I will post part two as
|
||
soon as I complete it. Thank you for reading and please tell me what you think
|
||
of it so I know if I should post the rest.

Here we go, as requested, this is part two of The Best of Both Bars.
|

Last time on Bar Trek...

|

Hogan: Early reports seem to point towards the Borg.

LaForge: What a mess. You'd think they'd at least sweep up when they knew we

|
||
Riker: Well, Captain, where's Shelby?
|
||
|
||
Shelby: That's me.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Plot a course to intercept it.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, they've already moved to intercept US!
|
||
|
||
Borg: You...are directed to lower your shields...AND....transport Captain
|
||
Jean-Luc Picard to our ship...
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, that did not come from the Borg ship.
|
||
|
||
Picard: Well, where did it come from?
|
||
|
||
Gary: Hello, Picard.
|
||
|
||
The Borg ship fires at Gary's Tavern as it explodes into a million pieces.
|
||
|
||
The Borg take away Picard.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Counciller, duck!
|
||
|
||
Worf shoots and Troi disintegrates.
|
||
|
||
Worf: CAPTAIN!!!
|
||
|
||
Riker: ..well, what happened to the Captain?
|
||
|
||
Data: Sir, he has been altered by the Borg.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, he IS a Borg.
|
||
|
||
Riker: If the Borg go into Warp we may never catch up.
|
||
|
||
Picard: I am Locutus of Borg. Resistance is futile. Your life, as it has been,
|
||
is over. From this time forward you will service....US!
|
||
|
||
Riker: Mr. Worf...
|
||
|
||
Worf: Fire, sir?
|
||
|
||
Riker: Um...yeah...
|
||
|
||
AND NOW THE CONCLUSION!
|
||
|
||
Worf: Main Deflector Dish dish ready to fire in three seconds.
|
||
|
||
At that moment, the Dish fires early.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Fired early, huh? Never happened to me...
|
||
|
||
Cut to outside where the beam is making no damage to the Borg ship.
|
||
|
||
Cut back to the bridge where Worf is wearing sunglasses.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, the Borg ship is unaffected.
|
||
|
||
Data: We can only continue this for 10.47645 seconds before the Warp Engines
|
||
overload.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Alright, cut it out...stop firing.
|
||
|
||
Locutus: The knowledge and experience of the human, Picard is now ours...
|
||
Number Twelve.
|
||
|
||
The music fades up as we fade into the opening sequence.
|
||
|
||
COMMERCIAL
|
||
|
||
Fade back into the bridge where Riker is fixing his hair.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Look, Borg. We want our captain back and we want him now.
|
||
|
||
Locutus: We have assimilated Picard into our culture. And now we shall
|
||
assimilate all life into our culture.
|
||
|
||
The screen switches to an external shot of the Borg ship spinning around and
|
||
warping off the other direction.
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Sir, what do we do?
|
||
|
||
Riker: Power up the engines, LaForge. We are in hot pursuit.
|
||
|
||
The Enterprise warps off after the Borg.
|
||
|
||
Cut to the Ready Room, where Riker is playing with that thing with steel balls
|
||
at the ends of strings that bounce back and forth when you strike them.
|
||
|
||
Door Chime: Tweeedlesquirge.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Come.
|
||
|
||
Guinan: May I come in?
|
||
|
||
Riker: I just said you could.
|
||
|
||
Guinan: Oh yeah. I just wanted you to know that a lot of the people on this
|
||
ship are scared. They don't think they will be alive tomorrow.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Why? What happens tonight?
|
||
|
||
Guinan: The situation with the Borg...
|
||
|
||
Riker: Oh, thats right.
|
||
|
||
Guinan: They have complete faith in you. My question is...do you?
|
||
|
||
Riker: I'm not sure if I can handle the responsibility. Captain Picard wrote
|
||
the book on this ship.
|
||
|
||
Guinan: Yeah, and right about now its selling about as well as Paterno's did.
|
||
|
||
Riker: So you are saying I should think for myself?
|
||
|
||
Guinan: Frightening thought, ain't it?! The point is...that's your chair now.
|
||
|
||
Riker looks at the Captain's chair.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Thank you, Guinan.
|
||
|
||
Guinan: And if you tell anyone I was being nice and supportive...I'll tear your
|
||
ears off!!!
|
||
|
||
Riker: Gotcha.
|
||
|
||
Guinan exits as Riker sits down in the chair. He looks around the room and
|
||
leans back in the chair as he falls over backwards.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Commander, Admirel Hogan says he wants to talk to all of us in the
|
||
conference room.
|
||
|
||
Riker: I don't think he thought this one out...there's over a thousand people
|
||
on this ship. How are they all gonna fit in that tiny room?
|
||
|
||
Worf: I think he meant only the command crew.
|
||
|
||
Riker: That would be more suitable. O.K., tell him we'll be there in five
|
||
minutes.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Aye, sir.
|
||
|
||
Cut to the conference room, where Riker is twidling his thumbs, Data is
|
||
playing with a paddleball, Worf is pouring a beer, and LaForge is staring off
|
||
into space.
|
||
|
||
Hogan: Hey, dudes...I received your report and am sorry to hear about the
|
||
Captain.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Then we are officially calling him dead?
|
||
|
||
Hogan: He will be labeled missing in action, and until such time as he is found
|
||
you will be promoted to Captain, Riker.
|
||
|
||
Riker smirks.
|
||
|
||
Data: Sir, it appears as though the Borg are going to try assimilating all life
|
||
into their culture.
|
||
|
||
Hogan: I'm well aware of that, Lt. Cmmdr. Data. A force has been assembled at
|
||
Wolf 007 to stop them from reaching Earth.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Understood, sir.
|
||
|
||
Hogan: So stick to the three demandments and I'm sure everything will turn out
|
||
fine. Hogan out. (poses)
|
||
|
||
The viewscreen switches to the Bar Trek logo.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Well, I suppose we should work on a plan to get the Captain back, save
|
||
the Enterprise, and make the galaxy safe from the tyranny of the Borg.
|
||
|
||
Data: Yeah, my sentiments exactly...Cappy!
|
||
|
||
Riker: Oh, speaking of which, I should pick a new First Officer.
|
||
|
||
Everybody raises there hands and starts saying, "Oh, ME ME ME ME ME!"
|
||
|
||
Riker: Data, you would be the logical first choice...but I just don't like you.
|
||
|
||
Data frowns.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Worf, I don't think you are sober enough for the job.
|
||
|
||
Worf has already passed out.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Geordie...not a chance.
|
||
|
||
LaForge is still staring out the window.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Which leaves only one choice....
|
||
|
||
Cut to the back of the room where Shelby is staring into a mirror.
|
||
|
||
Shelby: Where did you get this painting that looks like me?
|
||
|
||
Riker: God, I'm scared.
|
||
|
||
Cut to the Borg ship where Picard is being marched down a corridor for
|
||
his Borgification treatments.
|
||
Cut back to the bridge of the Big E.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Data, how long until we can intercept the Borg ship?
|
||
|
||
Data: Well, uh, Willie, I would say about, ah, 34.8734 minutes.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Remember a while back when I told you to round off your numbers when
|
||
talking to the Captain?
|
||
|
||
Data: Sure I do. I remember every fact that I am exposed to.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Well, Data....I'M THE CAPTAIN NOW AND I WANT YOU TO ROUND OFF YOUR
|
||
NUMBERS WHEN TALKING TO ME!!!!!!
|
||
|
||
Data: Sheesh! You do not have to yell at me.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Sorry, Data, it must be that new decaf that Guinan is serving.
|
||
|
||
Data: Quite understood, sir. (under his breath) You putz.
|
||
|
||
Riker: What was that?
|
||
|
||
Data: I said, ah, June Bugs...I was trying to remember that old saying about
|
||
June bugs.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Oh.
|
||
|
||
Shelby comes on to the bridge in a nightgown.
|
||
|
||
Shelby: Hey, wait a minute...this isn't my cabin. Mr. Worf told me my cabin was
|
||
this way.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Unnnghghhhhh....well, Shelby, while you're here, you might as well sit
|
||
down and help us plan for when we catch up to the Borg.
|
||
|
||
Shelby: Oh, ok.
|
||
|
||
She sits down beside Riker and stares at him.
|
||
|
||
Riker: You know, I think it would be best if we went to my quarters to discuss
|
||
this. (Leans towards her) I really don't trust Data.
|
||
|
||
Shelby: Oooooooooohhhh....alright.
|
||
|
||
Riker and Shelby walk to the turbo lift.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Mr. Data, you have the Bridge.
|
||
|
||
Data: Geee...thanks, Cappy.
|
||
|
||
Cut to Riker's Room
|
||
|
||
Worf: Captain Riker, urgent subspace message coming in from Admirel Hogan.
|
||
|
||
Camera backs off of Riker's face and we see Shelby chained to the wall behind
|
||
him.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Alright, Worf. I'll be right there.
|
||
|
||
Riker exits.
|
||
|
||
Shelby: Great, this is the third time this week that someone left me chained to
|
||
the wall.
|
||
|
||
Cut to Main Bridge.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Put Hogan on screen.
|
||
|
||
Riker goes to sit down and Data is still in the Command chair.
|
||
|
||
Riker: DATA!!!! GO BACK TO YOUR OWN CHAIR!!!!
|
||
|
||
Data: Geez, sorry, Captain, sir.
|
||
|
||
Data returns to OPS.
|
||
|
||
The viewer switches to a shot of Hogan, now bleeding profusely from the
|
||
forehead.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Hey, what happened to you?
|
||
|
||
Hogan: It's the Borg, they are wiping out our forces at Wolf 007.
|
||
|
||
Riker: How did they get there so fast?
|
||
|
||
Data: I'd suspect a writer's flaw.
|
||
|
||
Riker throws a book at Data.
|
||
|
||
Data: Just like old times. ( Data chuckles)
|
||
|
||
Hogan: They have destroyed just about every ship we have...wait a minute, they
|
||
are beaming aboard my ship.
|
||
|
||
The viewer switches to a long shot of Hogan's bridge, where a Borg arrives and
|
||
looks a bit like Ric Flair.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Sir, look out.
|
||
|
||
The Borg clotheslines Hogan from behind and applies the figure four as the
|
||
screen switches to a shot of the space around the Enterprise.
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Hey, what happened, I was just starting to enjoy that.
|
||
|
||
Data: I think the Admirel was in a bit of trouble there.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Mr. LaForge, increase speed to whatever our top speed is.
|
||
|
||
Cut to external shot of the Big E warping away.
|
||
|
||
COMMERCIAL
|
||
|
||
Coming soon to a theatre near you....two sequels packed into one big film.
|
||
The Towering Inferno and Earthquake are happening at the the same place at the
|
||
same time, and you'll wanna see what happens in the Samuel L. Bronkowitz
|
||
production of....SHAKE AND BAKE!!!!!!
|
||
|
||
Fade back in to the Enterprise zooming by Jupiter.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Where are they?
|
||
|
||
Worf: I can't seem to find them on scanners.
|
||
|
||
Cut to an external shot of the Borg ship coming out from behind Jupiter and
|
||
now following the Enterprise.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, they are right behind us.
|
||
|
||
Riker suddenly turns around into a karate chop stance.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Who is??!!! I don't see anybody.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir,the Borg...they are behind the Enterprise.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Oh, put them on screen.
|
||
|
||
The screen switches to a shot of the Borg ship closely following the Enterprise
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, they are hailing us.
|
||
|
||
Riker: On screen.
|
||
|
||
The screen switches to a shot of Locutus and two other Borg.
|
||
|
||
Locutus: You are attempting to intervene again.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Well, it would help if we knew what you were doing.
|
||
|
||
Locutus: We intend to assilate all life into out existance.
|
||
|
||
Riker: What do you mean?
|
||
|
||
Locutus: We will turn everyone into Borg.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Oh.
|
||
|
||
Data: Sir...
|
||
|
||
Riker: Shut up.
|
||
|
||
Data looks back up at the screen.
|
||
|
||
Locutus: We also intend to assimilate all life aboard Enterprise.
|
||
|
||
Riker: I see, well, I just don't think I can let you do that.
|
||
|
||
Cut to the outside where the Borg fire a warning shot at the Big E.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Close communications. I have a plan....
|
||
|
||
The screen goes blank then fades back in with the words One Minute Later on the
|
||
bottom of the picture.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Worf and Data, you know what you're supposed to do.
|
||
|
||
Cut to shuttlebay
|
||
|
||
Data: Aye, sir.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Alright, Geordie, I've written down what I want you to do with the
|
||
saucer section.
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Yeah, but what's this word right here...(holds paper up to screen)
|
||
|
||
Riker: Geordie...that's your name.
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Oh yeah.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Alright, lets get ready. Hail the Borg.
|
||
|
||
The screen in the battle bridge switches to Locutus.
|
||
|
||
Locutus: Now what?
|
||
|
||
Riker: Locutus of Borg, we are ready to let you assimilate us.
|
||
|
||
Locutus: I find it unlikely that you are ready to be assimilated, I find it
|
||
more likely that you wish to intervene.
|
||
|
||
Riker: If Picard is truly a part of you, then you know Picard trusted me
|
||
implicitely.
|
||
|
||
Locutus looks at him strangely.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Well, at least he trusted me somewhat.
|
||
|
||
Locutus: Picard trusted you somewhat.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Then you know I am serious when I say we are ready.
|
||
|
||
Locutus: Then lower your shields or we will destroy your ship.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Then take your best shot cuz we are about to intervene.
|
||
|
||
Riker signals for communications to be cut.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Alright, lets separate.
|
||
|
||
LaForge starts to cry.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Geordie, what's wrong?
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Spliting up is so sad.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Never mind that, just DO IT!
|
||
|
||
Cut to external shot of the saucer separating.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Mr. O'Brien, pattern Riker Alpha One.
|
||
|
||
The Warp Drive section "ducks"(good pun, huh) just before the Borg tractor beam
|
||
locks on.
|
||
|
||
O'Brien: Sir, they are turning towards the Saucer Section.
|
||
|
||
Riker: That wasn't supposed to happen...ummmm....go to emergency raspberry
|
||
mode.
|
||
|
||
Cut to outside where a giant tongue comes out of the nose of the Warp Drive
|
||
Section and gives the Borg ship the raspberry.
|
||
|
||
O'Brien: Sir, the Borg are returning their attention to us.
|
||
|
||
Riker: As you should, Captain.
|
||
|
||
O'Brien: Sir, are you alright?
|
||
|
||
Riker: Of course, why?
|
||
|
||
O'Brien: You just called me Captain...I thought you were delerious.
|
||
|
||
Riker: No, I was talking to Captain Picard.
|
||
|
||
O'Brien:I......don't think he heard you.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Never mind...just get ready for Riker Beta One.
|
||
|
||
O'Brien puts on a ten gallon cowboy hat.
|
||
|
||
O'Brien: Ready sir.
|
||
|
||
Riker: LaForge, proceed with anti-matter spread.
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Aye, sir.
|
||
|
||
Cut to outside, where the saucer section starts shooting butter at the Borg.
|
||
|
||
Cut to Borg bridge where the viewer looks over to the saucer.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Alright, Data and Worf...proceed with your mission.
|
||
|
||
Data: Aye, sir.
|
||
|
||
Data and Worf exit the ship in a shuttle and head toward the Borg ship.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Sir, we've penetrated the Borg subspace field.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Well done, Worf.
|
||
|
||
Data: Well, actually, I'm the one who is piloting this shuttle.
|
||
|
||
Riker: WHATEVER!!!!
|
||
|
||
Cut back to the shuttle where Data and Worf stand in the transporter thingee.
|
||
|
||
Data and Worf materialize inside the Borg ship and go towards where Locutus is
|
||
standing with two other Borg.
|
||
|
||
Worf fires his phaser at the first extra Borg, who falls.
|
||
|
||
Worf: You get the second one while I incapacitate the Captain.
|
||
|
||
Data: Hey, you got it, Worfy.
|
||
|
||
Data shoots the second one, who has already adapted to the frequency.
|
||
|
||
Data: Darn.
|
||
|
||
Data readjusts his phaser and shoots, this time killing the Borg.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Captain, this is for your own good.
|
||
|
||
Worf punches Locutus in the face and his head spins around three times as he
|
||
falls to the ground.
|
||
|
||
Worf: Now lets go.
|
||
|
||
Data and Worf materialize back in the shuttle with Locutus.
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Captain, Worf and Data have successfully retrieved the Captain.
|
||
|
||
Riker: You realize you used captain in your sentence twice?
|
||
|
||
LaForge: I know...thats thanks to a new expand your vocabulary brain implant
|
||
I just got.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Neat...ummm....beam the three back here immediately.
|
||
|
||
Worf, Data, and Locutus beam back to the Enterprise just as the Borg blow up
|
||
the shuttlecraft.
|
||
|
||
Cut to sickbay where Locutus is lying on a table.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Dr. Nobody...how is he?
|
||
|
||
Nobody: It's hard to say.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Please try to.
|
||
|
||
Nobody: Alright, he is neoscopiopetical...
|
||
|
||
Riker: Geez, you're right...that was a mouthful.
|
||
|
||
Nobody nods.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Alright, wake him up.
|
||
|
||
Dr. Nobody starts to shake Locutus and slaps his face.
|
||
|
||
Locutus: What what what???!!!!
|
||
|
||
Locutus looks around the room.
|
||
|
||
Locutus: Riker??? Incorrect strategy, Number Twelve, to risk the lives of crew
|
||
just to capture one man. Picard would never have approved.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Maybe so, but this is my ship now. I'm the big man...the top dog...
|
||
numero uno hauncho...the Head CHEESE!!!
|
||
|
||
Locutus tries to get up and Worf puts a phaser right in his face.
|
||
|
||
Locutus: There is no need for apprehension, I mean no harm...no harm....no harm
|
||
..no harm...
|
||
|
||
Worf slaps him in the back of the head...
|
||
|
||
Locutus: Ah, thank you. I shall continue on this ship to represent the Borg.
|
||
|
||
Data leans over to Riker.
|
||
|
||
Data: I think I can free him of his ties to the Borg.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Oh? How?
|
||
|
||
Data whispers in Riker's ear.
|
||
|
||
Riker smirks: Awesome...get right on it.
|
||
|
||
Data walks away.
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Sir, the Borg are positioned directly above Earth.
|
||
|
||
Riker: I'm on my way.
|
||
|
||
COMMERCIAL
|
||
|
||
Larry(?): Hello, Ed here says Bartlys and James has a new wine cooler that'll
|
||
knock your socks off. He says its the best thing that Bartyls and
|
||
James has ever done. Ed thinks that this beverage will beat out
|
||
water in the top five drinks.
|
||
|
||
Ed stands up and grabs Larry around the neck.
|
||
|
||
Larry: I CAN SPEAK FOR MYSELF!!!! WHY WON'T YOU EVER LET ME TALK???!!!!
|
||
DAMN YOU!!!!!!
|
||
|
||
Fade back in to the bridge with the Borg ship hovering above Earth on the
|
||
viewer.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Look how big that ship is...
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Yeah, and with the water that blue you can almost see it down there...
|
||
(starts laughing to himself).
|
||
|
||
The Borg ship starts firing at the Enterprise.
|
||
|
||
Riker: YIKES!!! Mr. LaForge, increase power to shields.
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Done!
|
||
|
||
Riker: Data, are you almost done...
|
||
|
||
Data: Sure thing, Willie...help is on its way.

Riker starts to sweat, which reactivates the tons of cologn he applied this
|
||
morning.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Ummm.....LaForge, set a collision course with the Borg ship.
|
||
|
||
LaForge: What?
|
||
|
||
Riker: I said... SET A COLLISION COURSE WITH THE BORG SHIP!!!!
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Oh, alright. (presses a code into the panel)
|
||
|
||
Riker: Data.....
|
||
|
||
Data: Hey, I'm waiting just like you are...
|
||
|
||
Riker: Countdown, LaForge...ten...nine...eight...seven...six..
|
||
|
||
Data: Almost here...
|
||
|
||
Riker: five...four....three....two...
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Captain...another ship is coming into this sector...its a Ferengi ship
|
||
|
||
Riker: A Ferengi ship? Here? Put it on screen.
|
||
|
||
The screen switches to a shot of a Ferengi ship flopping all around.
|
||
|
||
Screen changes to show the bridge where Crusher is hitting Daimon Bach on the
|
||
ears.
|
||
|
||
Bach: Riker!!! Take her back....please!!!!
|
||
|
||
LaForge: Sir, I think we should get the doctor back now.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Um....quick..beam Crusher aboard.
|
||
|
||
O'Brien: Done...
|
||
|
||
Riker: Now lets put the Enterprise back together.
|
||
|
||
The side of LaForge's console falls off and he puts it back into place, then
|
||
staples it.
|
||
|
||
Cut to outside where the two sections reconnect.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Hmmmmmm....start firing everything we've got at the Borg ship.
|
||
|
||
The Enterprise unloads into the Borg, of couse, causing no damage.
|
||
|
||
The Borg fire back and starts to burn away parts of the Enterprise.
|
||
|
||
Computer(Casey Casem): Warning. Outer hull breach. Structural damage in ten
|
||
seconds.
|
||
|
||
Riker: LaForge, collision course in five seconds...four, three, two,...
|
||
|
||
Suddenly the Ferengi ship crashes into the Borg and the big cube goes up in a
|
||
shower of sparks.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Wow.
|
||
|
||
COMMERCIAL
|
||
|
||
Crazy Hi: I am Crazy Hi, I am not selling you anything in this commercial...and
|
||
why not!!!!! To save you money!!!!!
|
||
|
||
Fade back in to the bridge of the Enterprise.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Well, looks like we've taken care of the Borg...oops...now what are we
|
||
gonna do for Picard?
|
||
|
||
Data: Sir, our special envoy is here...I am certain we scan get the Captain
|
||
back.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Lets get down to Sick Bay
|
||
|
||
Cut to sick bay, where Locutus is just getting up from the table.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Hello, Locutus...someone is here to see you....
|
||
|
||
Riker exits into the shadows and a figure appears.
|
||
|
||
Locutus: Who are you? What do you want from me.
|
||
|
||
Suddenly Lwaxanna Troi steps out(Played by Roseanne Barr)
|
||
|
||
Lwaxanna: Well, hello, you delicious man you!!!!
|
||
|
||
Locutus: NO!!!! NO!!!!! NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
||
|
||
Cut to outside where the crew is standing.
|
||
|
||
Riker: Yep.....he's back!
|
||
|
||
Fade out
|
||
|
||
Commercials appear, then fade back into titles and closing theme.
|
||
|
||
Well, there it is...the conclusion of Best of Both Bars. I hope you like it.
|
||
Also, I was thinking about making my BarTrek series become a weekly thing,
|
||
because I can produce these scripts really fast. Any opinions???
|
||
|
||
Please post your answers or E-Mail me with your opinions... Thank You.
