A New Generation – Strange New World
It was a normal day aboard the Enterprise. It certainly was in Ten Forward, where Cadet Robin Leftler was reading a book about Termite species across the Federation, while eating soup. “How can you eat that stuff?” her fellow cadet, Ethan Collier, asked.
“It’s healthier than what you’re eating,” Leftler snarked back, while glancing at Collier’s carbohydrate-loaded meal.
“At least it tastes good,” Collier returned.
“I guess it takes a discriminating palate to appreciate Vulcan cuisine.” She was about to say more, when she noticed that Enterprise had dropped out of warp and entered orbit around an M-class planet.
“I thought we were close to a nebula,” Collier stated.
“I wonder if anyone lives there,”
On the Bridge, Captain Jean-Luc Picard was wondering the same thing. “Data.”
“The atmosphere consists of 18% Oxygen, 80% Nitrogen and 2% other gases,” Lieutenant Commander Data reported.
“Close to Earth,” Lieutenant Geordi La Forge commented.
“Life signs?” the Captain asked.
“The planet has diverse ecologies in many different biomes, but there is no humanoid life, nor any indication of high technology,” Data reported.

Excerpt from: Biden and the Past Presidents – Jefferson
22 January 2021
The Secret Service agent again lead Biden to the subbasement room where the Temporal Vehicle was kept. He hoped that he would get along with Jefferson better than he had with Adams. He arrived at the room where the Time Vehicle was kept.

“The TARDIS is certainly taking it’s time isn’t it?”
“Yes…”
However, at that moment the rotor on the console stopped moving with the usual voorp! voorp! sound. The ship had landed.
Tegan stepped outside first. She saw that the ship had materialized in a mid-sized park in a city somewhere. She knew that it wasn’t on Earth as she could see two moons that were both half the apparent size of Earths’ moon, one nearer to the horizon than the other. ‘One must be larger and further away,’ she thought, remembering something the Doctor had told her about orbital mechanics at some point.
The Doctor and Turlough followed her out. “Polonia,” the Doctor said.
“You recognize it from the moons?” Tegan asked.
“Not only that, but some of the vegetation in this park,” the Doctor answered.

Excerpt from: The Engineer and the Time Lady
“Where do you want to start?” Gamma asked.
Aialah was in thought for a moment. “Engineering.”
“Sure,” Gamma said. She lead Aialah back to the turbolift.
Alpha was more concerned about Aialah after her reaction to Beta.

Clara interrupted. “I heard about something unusual.”
“Is that it? I think there’s something more,” Lauren said.
“Of course, there’s more,” the other one, the Doctor, said. “But what can you tell us about what has been happening?”
Words: 38
Excerpt from: Paternoster Row
‘So, what next?’ Clara wondered. She wasn’t sure.
“I have noticed something,” Vastra added. “It is warmer than it should be for this time of year.”

She placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder. Tasha’s turbulent emotions began to settle. But she knew that would have to be a session after they arrived at Farpoint.
“Greviously savage could mean anything,” Picard said. “I will answer only specific charges.”
“Are you certain you want a full disclosure of human ugliness?” Q asked. “So be it, fool!” He turned to the bailiff. “Present the charges.”

Excerpt from: Jia’hale
“I miss Hotaru,” he murmured.
“Not the first time someone wanted to leave...” the Doctor said in a sad tone.
'There's something there,' Sabir thought. 'Hotaru had been travelling alone with her when I started travelling.' He shook his head. “Have you found anything.”
“Not yet.”
Police Public Call Box. “Huh?”
“What?” the officer asked.
“The markings of the pod. It has an English phrase. 'Police Public Call Box'. That makes no sense!”
“...Sounds familiar.”
“How, sir,” the tech asked.
“Just run the search.”
The Doctor found something. “A particle trace...”
“What kind of trace?” Sabir asked.
“A particle trace. It could tell me something about what happened.”

“Lose?” Q asked incredulously.
“Yes, even though you’re judge and prosecutor.”
“And Jury.”
“Accepted, so long as you keep to your agreement,” Picard said. “And assaulting prisoners is hardly a fair trial.”
“This is a merciful court,” Q said as he thawed Yar. “Continuing these proceedings, I must caution you that legal trickery is not permitted. This is a court of…”
Picard interrupted. “Court of fact! We humans know our past, even when we're ashamed of it. I recognise this court system as the one that agreed with that line from Shakespeare. Kill all the lawyers,” he said referring to Henry VI.
“Which was done,” Q added.
“Which led to the rule guilty until proven innocent.”
“Of course,” Q said, clearly enjoying himself. “Bringing the innocent to trial would be unfair. You will now answer to the charge of being a grievously savage race.”
Deanna could feel that Tasha was tense, trying not to remember what she had experienced of the ‘courts’ on her home planet.

There was still discontent and worry. But they settled down. Chakotay wondered how Kes was having that calming effect.

“One drink,” she said.
“Sure.”
However, Daria quickly regretted that decision. That one drink was enough for her to get tipsy. “That’s enough for now,” she said, firmly. “Do you have a soda?”
“Of course,” Kelly, one of Natalia’s friends said. “Here!”
Daria nodded, she considered that she had just sounded like Quinn!

“You never know, but less than 1 in 50 thousand planets are inhabited.”
“I’m aware of that.”
“But…” Leigh commented.

“You know that the settlement patterns are irregular.”

“There has to be something here,” Picard said. “We rarely went without finding an inhabited planet every week on the Stargazer.”
“According to Data, only 1 out of 43 thousand planets supports intelligent life.”

“What do you mean?”
“It is something technological isn’t it?”
“Yes,” Bond answered in a guarded tone. “But I trust my Quartermaster to be able to work it out.”
“That’s what I’m afraid of.”
Bond looked closely at the pensive expression on Hernandez’ face. She was clearly hiding a lot of things. ‘I need to do something, before she tries something desperate,’ he thought. He was sure of one thing. That asking her who she worked for wouldn’t be a good idea.”
“I can let you look at it somewhere secure.”
“Sure.”
As Bond got back in the car, Hernandez contacted the Toronto. “I’m going to follow him to a safehouse.”
“Are you sure that’s wise?” Lawson asked.
“There’s not much choice. I don’t want to hurt him. I’m sure I hurt those Warsaw Pact agents…”
“Right.”

Excerpt from: A New Generation - Farpoint
Troi looked around the courtroom. She could detect nothing from the people there other than the other officers who arrived with her. But she knew Q was there, somewhere.
“Historically intriguing, Captain,” Data said. “Very, very accurate.”
“Mid 21st Century, during the Post Atomic Horror,” Picard said, referring to the many warlord states that arose in the aftermath of the nuclear exchange at the end of World War Three.
‘Could have been worse,’ Troi thought. It could have been Nazi Germany, Khmer Rouge Cambodia or the Great Khanate.
“All present, stand and make respectful attention to the honoured Judge,” the bailiff said.
Troi leaned closer to the Captain. “Careful sir. This is not an illusion or a dream.”
“But these courts happened in the past.”
“I don’t understand either, but this is real.”
“Get to your feet, criminals!”
Then Q appeared, in a garb appropriate to a ‘Judge’ of the era.
“At least we’re acquainted with the Judge, Captain,” Data remarked.
Picard stood. “Can we assume you mean this will be a fair trial?”
“Yes,” Q answered. “Absolutely equitable. Proceed.”
The Bailiff spoke again. “Before this gracious court now appear these prisoners to answer for the multiple and grievous savageries of their species. How plead you, criminal?”
