Virtuality Page #8

Well, a lot's happened

since my last letter.

726

00:
34:50,915 -- 00:34:53,445

We've, uh--

We've had some bad news.

727

00:
34:53,481 -- 00:34:54,919

The ship's doctor is ill,

728

00:
34:55,250 -- 00:34:57,026

and it could threaten

the mission.

729

00:
34:58,688 -- 00:35:00,021

Yeah, we all worked

so hard for this.

730

00:
35:00,056 -- 00:35:02,986

We, uh, competed so hard

to be a part of it,

731

00:
35:03,021 -- 00:35:05,271

you'd think that'd be the only thing

on our minds right now.

732

00:
35:06,511 -- 00:35:07,833

But, uh...

733

00:
35:07,988 -- 00:35:09,563

Well, six months

in a metal tube

734

00:
35:09,598 -- 00:35:11,510

can make you lose track

of your priorities.

735

00:
35:11,590 -- 00:35:13,887

Y-You start to focus

736

00:
35:14,258 -- 00:35:15,895

on other things...

737

00:
35:17,193 -- 00:35:19,202

Things that just

make you crazier.

738

00:
35:20,076 -- 00:35:20,748

[beep]

739

00:
35:21,174 -- 00:35:24,142

Tweety burger--

What a treat.

740

00:
35:24,176 -- 00:35:27,434

Much more meat

than you can...

741

00:
35:27,695 -- 00:35:29,096

[microwave beeps]

742

00:
35:29,131 -- 00:35:29,800

Eat!

743

00:
35:30,274 -- 00:35:32,749

Now come on, Dr. J,

why are you eating that crap again?

744

00:
35:32,784 -- 00:35:34,262

I made

a nice carbonara.

745

00:
35:35,164 -- 00:35:37,802

Once bitten, Manny,

once bitten.

746

00:
35:37,837 -- 00:35:39,411

Well, let me--

Let me do something to it.

747

00:
35:39,446 -- 00:35:40,684

Let me put, like,

a little salt in there.

748

00:
35:40,719 -- 00:35:42,454

You want a little salt,

just like a touch?

749

00:
35:42,489 -- 00:35:43,120

Just a little bit?

750

00:
35:43,155 -- 00:35:45,778

This guy paddles

into the lineup.

751

00:
35:45,812 -- 00:35:46,939

Waves like I'm his bud.

752

00:
35:46,974 -- 00:35:48,195

He drops in on me.

753

00:
35:48,230 -- 00:35:49,365

- Next thing I know--

- Drops in on you?

754

00:
35:49,400 -- 00:35:50,175

What is that?

755

00:
35:50,210 -- 00:35:51,523

It means he cut me off

on a wave.

756

00:
35:51,558 -- 00:35:53,152

- Okay.

- Next thing I know,

757

00:
35:53,187 -- 00:35:55,468

I'm stuck in water

while I get drilled into the reef.

758

00:
35:55,503 -- 00:35:57,099

By the time

I managed to rip off my headset,

759

00:
35:57,134 -- 00:35:58,535

it felt like

I really bought it.

760

00:
35:58,570 -- 00:35:59,975

You should reset the parameters

to no generate and--

761

00:
36:00,602 -- 00:36:04,003

You should reset the parameters

to no generate--

762

00:
36:04,420 -- 00:36:05,844

You think

I didn't think of that?

763

00:
36:05,879 -- 00:36:08,641

I programmed it

for a mellow break, okay?

764

00:
36:08,982 -- 00:36:10,590

Mellow, peaceful.

765

00:
36:10,625 -- 00:36:12,419

Someone hacked my module.

766

00:
36:12,454 -- 00:36:13,581

You're looking at me?

767

00:
36:13,616 -- 00:36:15,322

You're the computer genius.

768

00:
36:15,357 -- 00:36:16,962

I didn't touch

your module.

769

00:
36:17,534 -- 00:36:18,352

Really?

770

00:
36:18,645 -- 00:36:21,124

You didn't think that maybe

programming a little danger

771

00:
36:21,159 -- 00:36:23,379

might make for a better show

now that you're the new host?

772

00:
36:23,414 -- 00:36:24,111

[scoffs]

773

00:
36:25,023 -- 00:36:25,956

What, you think...

774

00:
36:26,681 -- 00:36:29,727

I'd use your personal module

just to get ratings?

775

00:
36:29,762 -- 00:36:31,166

I wouldn't put it

past you.

776

00:
36:32,054 -- 00:36:33,338

iOh./i

777

00:
36:34,989 -- 00:36:36,637

- Sue.

- What?

778

00:
36:37,661 -- 00:36:38,672

Look, I'm sorry,

779

00:
36:38,707 -- 00:36:40,388

but I know a computer hack

when I see one.

780

00:
36:40,423 -- 00:36:42,355

And that freak

was half a mile away.

781

00:
36:42,390 -- 00:36:44,121

That doesn't mean Billie

had anything to do with it.

782

00:
36:44,156 -- 00:36:45,606

Alice, just shut up!

783

00:
36:45,641 -- 00:36:48,378

You always butt into things that

have nothing to do with you.

784

00:
36:48,413 -- 00:36:49,941

Kenji, can you do something

about your wife?

785

00:
36:49,976 -- 00:36:51,521

- Don't bring me into this.

- She's doing it again.

786

00:
36:51,588 -- 00:36:53,241

No, I think a catfight

is gonna happen.

787

00:
36:53,276 -- 00:36:54,734

Oh, no.

Babe.

788

00:
36:56,338 -- 00:36:58,432

- Sorry about that.

- Thank you.

789

00:
36:58,467 -- 00:36:59,659

[laughter]

790

00:
36:59,694 -- 00:37:01,674

I didn't want to eat this.

Here, here, have mine.

791

00:
37:02,000 -- 00:37:03,402

- See you at breakfast.

- Yeah, I will.

792

00:
37:04,927 -- 00:37:07,267

So, Sue, are you

completely psychotic

793

00:
37:07,302 -- 00:37:08,886

or only when it comes

to other women?

794

00:
37:09,262 -- 00:37:11,031

I don't really like women

that much.

795

00:
37:11,066 -- 00:37:12,663

[laughing]

796

00:
37:12,697 -- 00:37:14,328

So, um--

Neither do I.

797

00:
37:14,931 -- 00:37:16,299

That's why we get along

so well.

798

00:
37:16,898 -- 00:37:19,233

[footsteps]

799

00:
37:20,456 -- 00:37:22,322

- Hey.

- Hey.

800

00:
37:22,900 -- 00:37:24,889

Where have you been?

I've been looking all over for you.

801

00:
37:24,924 -- 00:37:25,915

I'm okay.

802

00:
37:25,950 -- 00:37:27,034

Are you sure?

803

00:
37:27,202 -- 00:37:28,110

Yeah, I'm sure.

804

00:
37:28,139 -- 00:37:30,448

I just needed to leave

before I knocked her out.

805

00:
37:30,483 -- 00:37:32,167

She's got one more time

to talk to me like that.

806

00:
37:32,202 -- 00:37:34,688

Hey, okay, okay, okay, stop.

Okay, stop. Okay, please stop.

807

00:
37:34,723 -- 00:37:36,507

- N-No, no, no.

- Breathe, breathe.

808

00:
37:36,574 -- 00:37:38,078

- But you were there.

- Breathe.

809

00:
37:38,275 -- 00:37:39,665

Stop.

810

00:
37:40,736 -- 00:37:42,441

[exhales]

811

00:
37:44,106 -- 00:37:45,398

Is there anything

I can do?

812

00:
37:47,731 -- 00:37:52,132

Yeah. Me, the core,

tonight.

813

00:
37:53,448 -- 00:37:55,080

[playful growl and bite]

814

00:
37:55,334 -- 00:37:56,047

[slap]

815

00:
37:59,401 -- 00:38:00,707

[laughs]

816

00:
38:03,681 -- 00:38:04,444

Ow.

817

00:
38:04,786 -- 00:38:06,951

iYou think, uh, Pike's

really gonna turn us around?/i

818

00:
38:07,019 -- 00:38:09,355

If there's any doubt,

I'm willing to take odds.

819

00:
38:09,390 -- 00:38:10,920

The skipper

knows what he's doing.

820

00:
38:11,022 -- 00:38:12,379

And if he thinks

this problem is too big,

821

00:
38:12,414 -- 00:38:13,206

- what do you want?

- Oh, God.

822

00:
38:13,655 -- 00:38:15,614

Yes, you people

seem to be forgetting

823

00:
38:15,649 -- 00:38:18,467

that there's a isomewhat/i

bigger problem back at home.

824

00:
38:18,939 -- 00:38:20,666

So if we have to live

with a little risk,

825

00:
38:20,701 -- 00:38:22,639

I'd say that came with

the territory, wouldn't you?

826

00:
38:22,691 -- 00:38:24,926

Yeah, maybe there's

bigger problems back home.
