Synopsis
Myke's Escape Pod sets a course for Landel VI, the nearest habitable planet, 100 hours away. He is driven slowly insane by the Computer's entertainment programs, 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall, available in over 5,000 languages. The Pod eventually comes to Landel VI, but Myke crashes the pod by trying to land it manually. Myke notes a strange energy reading, and requests a weapon, but the computer refuses to replicate him any weapon more advanced than a sword, as the planet is technologically undeveloped. He sets off in search of lunch, but soon passes out from hunger. If only he hadn't skipped lunch... He wakes up in a nearby village, populated by "creepy elf children", who found him unconcious. They tell him there is very little food in the village, but after a long and complex thought process, Myke realises the Escape Pod's replicator could create some food for him. He hurries back, but finds the Pod has been attacked, and the distress signal cut off. As Myke comes to the horrifying realisation that this means no food, the episode ends.
Quotes
- Myke: Computer, scan for the nearest habitable palnet
- Pod Computer: Affirmative. The nearest habitable planet is Landal VI.
- Myke: Set a course then.
- Pod Computer: Warning: the Federation has classified this planet as underdeveloped, with technology approximating that of 16th Century Earth. Contact with the local inhabitants in not advisable.
- Myke: Um... okay, set the course quietly then.
- Myke: Could be dangerous in the forest. I'd better replicate a weapon. Computer! Give me a big gun. The biggest, best gun you can make.
- [There is a bright flash of light, and a sword appears]
- Myke: What the crap!?
- Pod Computer: As this is an undeveloped world, I can't allow you to give them any modern technology.
- Myke: [Thinking] Dammit! I wanted a gun! No one ever lets me have a gun! [Aloud] I wouldn't give it to them, I'd just shoot them a little.
Trivia
