New [iost_uid0]Enterprise[/iost_uid0] fiver! Here's Five-Minute "." It's part of something bigger, but I don't have time to explain now -- come back tomorrow for the story.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I literally laughed out loud. I was expecting some "First Contact" stuff in there, but it doesn't matter. The fiver was great. The mobiüs strip was hilarious. The DBZ reference was a bit unexpected, but funny nonetheless.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]T'Pol: Far better, it is worth noting, than Mr. Mayweather's idea to tie the two Enterprises in a Möbius strip would have.
Mayweather: They could only have fired on one side![/quoteost_uid0]
Heh. Great fiver, Zeke.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]Mayweather: Sir? According to the position of the stars, we're 70 000 years from where we started.
Archer: WHAT?
Mayweather: Just messin' with ya. It's actually 117 years.
Archer: WHAT?
Mayweather: Oh, I guess that's still bad.

...
Tucker: So, was I a good father?
Lorian: You died of pecan poisoning when I was 14.

...
Lorian: Enterprise won't make it to Degra now, so we'll go instead. To do that, we'll have to attack them and steal part of their warp core.
Karyn: Wouldn't that be wrong?
Lorian: No, it's payback for the time they did it themselves.
Karyn: Oh, to those aliens from two episodes ago?
Lorian: To us 117 years ago. I love cause and effect.

...
T'Pol: Far better, it is worth noting, than Mr. Mayweather's idea to tie the two Enterprises in a Möbius strip would have.
Mayweather: They could only have fired on one side![/quoteost_uid0]

:lol: And nice blurb too. [/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]LOL Zeke! hilarious! I was trying to discreetly laugh becasue I didn't want to wake my father in law in the next room, but I couldn't help it! I had tears in my eyes! lol this one part got me:

Archer: So... you betrayed us, attacked us, and stole stuff from us. What do you have to say for yourself?
Lorian: We're saving Earth.
Archer: But you attacked us, and we're saving Earth.
Lorian: We're saving Earth.
Archer: We're saving Earth.
(4 hours later)
Lorian: We are SAving EaRTH.
Archer: I think I'm out of counters. Okay, you can help us with our plan.

then the part about T'pol thinking Trip immature because he DOES want an emotional relationship and not a one night stand! I thought the same thing watching it! lol
Very Good, I've never seen B5 so I didn't get the reference or KNOW what you were doing until that last line, so YAY! all in all it was a fun trip.

Oh and the pun about Operation Fair Play... that was shameful!

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I'd almost want to quote the whole thing, but I'll restrain myself to this:
[quoteost_uid0][iost_uid0]Mayweather: Sir? According to the position of the stars, we're 70 000 years from where we started.
Archer: WHAT?
Mayweather: Just messin' with ya. It's actually 117 years.
Archer: WHAT?
Mayweather: Oh, I guess that's still bad.[/iost_uid0] [/quoteost_uid0]
Good to see that, in the Five-Minute Universe at least, Travis is still having some fun.
[quoteost_uid0]... I've never seen B5 so I didn't get the reference or KNOW what you were doing until that last line ... [/quoteost_uid0]I saw a fair amount of B5 in the original run, but nothing was jumping out at me here -- did catch references to Khan and [iost_uid0]Yesterday's Enterprise[/iost_uid0], though. And "loth Lorian". Heheheh.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Some of my favourites that haven't been quoted yet:

[quoteost_uid0]Lorian: We were... too late.
Old T'Pol: No kidding. How many fivers have we missed now, ten?
Lorian: I mean too late to stop the Xindi probe.

Archer: Welcome to our ship. Now explain yourself or I'm stapling your face to the hull.
Lorian: I always wondered how long we've had that policy.

Lorian: No one would let her near the big chair after Daniels gave us that tape of "Twilight." I've tried to be the kind of captain you'd want me to be....
Archer: Let's find out. Xindi!
Lorian: Xindi? (WHAM) Ow....
Archer: Looks like you've done me proud.

Phlox: Their story checks out, Captain. That Karyn Archer person has DNA from you, several of the crew, and a couple of weird alien species.
Archer: I guess I had an interesting sex life.
Phlox: I knew my coaching would get you there eventually

Mayweather: And then I end up marrying a hot MACO! It's like one of my fanfic stories and it really happened!

Sato: Don't worry. That doesn't mean you didn't have any relationships with women. It just means they threw you out like a used paper towel when they were done.

Archer: According to Lorian, certain people spent their lives equipping every square millimeter of hull with 50 torpedoes!
Reed: Come on, sir, I ended up leading a lonely life. I didn't have a wife and children I could arm with torpedoes.

Enterprise: ZAP ZAP ZAP
Future Enterprise: ZERPOW ZERPOW ZERPOW
Porthos: Ruff! Ruffruffruff!
Sato: What's with him?
Archer: He knows there's a dogfight going on. [/quoteost_uid0]

The "dogfight" pun is unforgiveable -- and hilarious![/colorost_uid0]
