[001: video]

I’ve seen a lotta weird stuff in my time on Enterprise, but the Barge might just take the cake. This isn’t really anything like I’d expected it to be. Of course, I’m not really sure what I did expect it to be, but this sure isn’t it. It’s definitely gonna take some gettin’ used to, but I guess I don’t have a lotta choice or anything. I’m not sure the Admiral’d appreciate me chickening out only a coupla days in, and I’m definitely not plannin’ on throwin’ in the towel anyways. I’ve got a deal ta follow through on.

[...]

Funny thing is, now that I think about it, I don’t really remember actually makin’ the deal. Or more like, I don’t remember meetin’ the Admiral. I know why I’m here, I’m just not quite sure how it happened. Is that normal?

Anyways. I'm Commander Charles Tucker, former Chief Engineer on board the starship Enterprise. Everyone calls me Trip.

... I don't suppose there's any chance of getting to check out the engines on this thing?

Oh, nothing so trivial as that, merely utter distortion of reality.
inhistorybooks: (O RLY.)

That... might go a little beyond my area of expertise.

And indeed, beyond mine. Entirely disconcerting a notion.
inhistorybooks: (Yessssss?)

... This isn't some big practical joke, is it? Confuse the new guy or somethin'?

Not in the least. I am entirely serious.
inhistorybooks: (O RLY.)

Right. Guess that doesn't really sound like you.

Is Watson around too?
inhistorybooks: (Listening.)

I mean, it's too bad he's not here. He's your friend, right?
inhistorybooks: (Seriously? Let it go.)

Is anyone you know here?

Everyone I am acquainted with aboard this ship I met following my arrival.
inhistorybooks: (Really now.)

I meant from back home.
inhistorybooks: (Prying a little.)

Where are you from anyway? Or, I guess, more like when are you from.

London, England, 9 December, 1898. From Earth, as I believe that occasionally needs specification.
inhistorybooks: (I take my job seriously.)

Wow. Musta been a weird transition.

When one remains open to all possibilities one is not so taken aback by the once believed impossible. {Said far more calmly and convincingly than it should be.}
inhistorybooks: (Paying attention.)

I guess that's fair enough. Probably a decent way to go through life.
