Space Station 76 Page #3

I'm very pleased with your work.

You're well-trained and efficient.

I think this will be a good experience,

a, uh, learning experience for both of us.

Right?

Right.

So I'm really happy

that you have new ideas.

And I will let you know

when I'm ready to look at them.

No misunderstanding, sir.

I think men and women, we're all efficient.

Very good.

Hey.

Hello.

Hamburger day today.

Mm-hmm.

[SIGHS]

Oh. Were you...?

Well, I was just gonna sit.

Yeah. I'm finished.

Right.

Right.

[OVER RADIO]

Carmen, wear your red dress tonight

I'll play with the pearls

At your neck in the moonlight

Dreaming of you

I could live in this twilight

I love you

And your red dress in the moonlight

What keeps a man hanging on?

When all the things

That he loves are gone?

[SIGHS]

DANIEL:

Water's warm, Glenn. Come on in.

GLENN:
Oh, it's hot.

DANIEL:
Heh-heh.

GLENN:
But feels nice.

DANIEL:
No, this is nice. Get over here.

[GASPS]

Does a change of scene

Mean a change of heart?

No, so

Carmen, wear your red dress tonight

I'll play with the pearls

At your neck in the moonlight

Dreaming of you

I could live in this twilight

I love you

And your red dress in the moonlight

SHIP:

Electrical overload in bath pod.

Correcting power circuits.

Electrical power stabilized.

[SIGHS]

Spread the constellations

In the southern skies

And when I stand

Here we are again

The start of the end

But there's more

But there's more

I only want to see

If you'll give up on me

But there's always more

There is more

International feel

And there is more

Interplanetary deals

Mom?

[GERBIL CHITTERS]

[SCREAMS]

[BOTH MOANING]

[DOOR OPENS THEN CLOSES]

[SIGHS]

Feel better?

It looked like

its head was gone.

Yeah. It was.

Where did it go?

Mommy gerbil ate it.

Why?

Did you touch it?

No.

Okay. Don't touch the babies.

It makes the mommy eat them.

But why would she...?

You have five more.

Just relax and let the pill work.

You don't give drugs to a 7 year old!

You could have killed our daughter!

I only gave her half!

I don't care how much!

Don't give her your Valium!

Do not tell me how to raise my daughter!

Your daughter? She's mine too!

You need to chill out!

I'm not gonna chill out!

I won't get catatonic like you do all day!

God!

MISTY:

I know what I am doing.

TED:

You can't give drugs to our daughter.

MISTY:
I can't talk about this with you.

I have to go!

I can't rehash it. I can't handle this.

TED:
Fine, Misty!

JESSICA [ON MONITOR]:

Ted?

Jessica?

Um, do you have a moment?

Yeah.

Hold on.

Uh...

Press 7-8-3-6-7-5-9-1.

[DOOR OPENS]

Hi.

Hey.

Sorry, my hand was just recharging.

The captain's really getting on me

about the hydrogen tanks.

I'm sorry. If I'd known

you'd needed those,

I would have gotten them for you.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't

have come up so late.

No, no, blame me, you know?

He blames me enough. Yeah.

It's just one more thing.

Tell me about it.

He does blame me?

No. I'm... Not you.

I'm... He blames me.

Oh...

He blames everyone.

Don't listen to him.

He's so full of hot air.

I don't think he got a degree

in bedside manner, you know?

Make sure the intercom's not on.

Oh, right. Beep, you're an a**hole.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

I'm sorry, I feel like I interrupted you.

No, no, how's your

first month on the ship?

You know...

Um...

Could I ask you a question?

Sure. Yeah.

Um, do you...?

Why did Daniel leave?

Oh, his family emergency.

But the captain told me

that he got promoted.

No, no, it was a family emergency.

I mean, it's not that easy to get promoted.

You know, you have to put in your time

on a smaller ship, so...

Like, I have two more years here

and then I...

[CHUCKLES]

I'm sorry, I'm boring you.

No, you're not.

Would you like to sit down or just...

Uh, sure. Thank you.

Yeah.

Ah!

Oh, God! Sorry. Sorry about that.

Um...

Sorry.

Yeah, so I, uh...

We have two more years here

and then we get sent

to a larger ship

which I'm really hoping is

Starship 8 because they have

kids running around everywhere.

I think Sunshine really needs that.

Oh, she's wonderful. She's extraordinary.

Yeah, she's great. She's great, yeah.

And Misty's...

She's good.

Yeah, she's good, so...

Yeah.

Oh, yeah, that's Sunshine.

Heh-heh.

We don't let the robots clean up in here

because Misty and I grew up on Earth.

We didn't have robots

to do everything for you, so...

I just feel like it's important for Sunshine

to learn to do things for herself.

Yeah, I've always wondered what it

would be like on Earth. I've never been.

You've never been to Earth?

No.

You're kidding me? Oh.

I kid you not.

Wow, you're really missing out.

That's what they say.

So, what were you, a ship child?

Did you grow up on a moon colony?

No. My parents were separated so I just,

you know, went ship to ship.

Oh.

Yeah, I had...

You okay?

Yeah. Sorry, it's...

It gets a little stiff sometimes.

Wow. Can I...?

It's a Mach II right?

Yeah. Yeah.

Wow. That's from before

the Quasar Revolution.

That's incredible.

Yeah, it's...

Oh. Uh, sorry.

It's okay. It's okay.

You just gotta...

It has a mind of its own.

Yes.

It's military requisitions, so just gotta

take what they give you, you know?

You're so brave.

Well...

What battle was it from?

No, I'm sorry, I understand if

you don't want to talk about it.

[DOOR OPENS]

You don't have to say.

Oh, hi.

Hey.

Hi.

Oh, hi.

Hey.

JESSICA:
How are you?

Great. Great.

How are you? Where were you?

I was just programming the meals.

Oh, your food programs,

by the way, are great.

Yeah, she does a great job.

Ship 3 was awful.

Hey, you know what? Let's have a drink.

Oh, God, no. I...

No, no, you have to!

Let's have a drink.

No. Thank you.

Honey, she's got a lot of work.

No, don't leave.

Let's stay. Just a night cap.

Just a night cap?

The tanks, maybe 9:30 tomorrow.

I think the captain would like them

by then, just so you know.

Yes, sir.

Heh-heh-heh.

Okay.

Bye.

See you soon.

Take care.

[DOOR OPENS THEN CLOSES]

How are you?

How are you?

Yeah, it's...

Where were you?

[SOFT ROCK MUSIC

PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS]

What is this? Sangria?

Uh-huh.

It tastes off.

Does the fruit taste off to you?

Mm.

Seems fine.

Ah, ah, ah!

You know what?

Earrings. Earrings.

It's gonna hurt me

But I break away from you

Honey, it's too soon. Just...

Let me get into it. Hold on. Keep going.

GAME:

Five hundred.

Five hundred.

Extra ammo bonus. One thousand.

That's how much I feel

Feel for you, baby

How much I need

Well, I need your touch

How much I need

I live for your loving

That's how much

That's how much

GAME:

Ten thousand.

Triple bonus.

[BOTH MOANING]

Oh, yeah! Yeah!

[BABY CRYING OVER MONITOR]

Sleep alone

And late at night I'm dreaming

[TURNS OFF MONITOR]

Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Oh, no

Give it all up

Then I give some more

If you'll only love me

Like you have before
