Every time I look at you

I don't understand

Why you let the threads you post

Get so out of hand

You'd have managed better

If you'd had it planned

Now why'd you choose such a backward time

And such a strange land?

        Lights go up on a spaceship with five people on board. The one at the controls- Rodney Molson- is the captain of the ship. He has also had far too many supernova shots to be piloting such a sophisticated vehicle. In the seat beside him is his Bordooshian tech/medical/navigational officer Vent. He has had too many shots to remember that this is a bad idea. Behind them is Princess Nebula, or Nebby. She is far too preoccupied with her pet robot to worry about the large uncharted planet that is getting very large and coming very fast in the view screen. And beside her is an unnamed ensign, she is very much sober and equally worried about the planet in the view screen. The two men in the front are singing a promotional jingle for Supernova Megawhisky.

 

Ensign: Um… sir, I don’t mean to question your command, but do you have to be going                                                                 so fast?
