Establishing scene: U.S.S. Enterprise crew in the transport room, with Kirk
and Scotty on pads ready to beam out.
Kirk: At last, a chance to capture an abandoned Klingon Bird of Prey!
--Burwerrlierier--burwerrlierlier-- (sound of transporter, fade to arrival
on Klingon vessel.
Kirk: Scotty, do you think you can get this thing powered up?
Scotty: Aye, cap'n, but it will take a wee bit o' time. I've accessed the
main control panel, but Klingon help systems are hard to fathom.
Spock: I believe the Babelfish setting on my tricorder should do the trick,
Mr. Scott.
Scott: Well, ya got me the words and pictures, Mr. Spock, but they're all
jumbled up. I can't make sense of them. It looks like the Klingons didn't
use stylesheets!
