• [the Enterprise senior staff are having a cocktail party in Captain Pike's quarters. They're drinking Orion Hurricanes for the first time. Also, this scene is done in the same animation style as "Star Trek: Lower Decks"] 

  Nurse Christine Chapel : Mm, what exactly have we been drinking for the last hour?

  Dr. M'Benga : [mumbles]  I don't know...

  Lt. Erica Ortegas : Orion Hurricanes. Karas gave us a bottle of real Orion delaq, so they're genuine.

  Captain Christopher Pike : Interesting flavor.

  Una Chin-Riley : [examining her hand]  Does anyone else feel strange?

  Nyota Uhura : Why does everything feel so... two-dimensional?

  Spock : [observing his left arm, which appears elongated and is whipping around like a snake]  My arms don't normally do this.

  Lt. Erica Ortegas : My eyes feel huge. Do my eyes look huge?

  Una Chin-Riley , Captain Christopher Pike , Spock , Dr. M'Benga : [bending over to examine Ortegas's eyes]  . Hmm...

  Dr. M'Benga : What the hell is in these things?

• [Spock and Boimler are in the Enterprise's science lab, attempting to synthesize horonium in order to power the time portal to return Boimler and Mariner to the 24th century] 

  Spock : [loading the synthesizer with the material needed to make horonium]  Shall we activate the synthesizer?

  Ensign Brad Boimler : Sure, I mean, is-is it gonna, un, blow may hand off?

  Spock : [picking up the cover for the synthesizer with Boimler]  We are separating fissile isotopes at high speeds. The chance of an explosion is down to a coin flip.

  Spock : [sealing the synthesizer]  I find myself curious about chance.

  [pause] 

  Spock : Do you fell lucky?

  Ensign Brad Boimler : Un, no, not at all. I, um... . Okay. Uh, so...

  Ensign Brad Boimler : [synthesizer sparks, and Boimler shrieks]  Okay, is that bad? Are sparks bad?

  Spock : [calmly walking away from synthesizer]  Yes. Seek cover.

  Ensign Brad Boimler : [shrieks and whimpers as he finds cover with Spock]  . Aah!

  Ensign Brad Boimler : [synthesizer explodes. Spock and Boimler stand up and cautiously look at the remains of the synthesizer]  I've ruined everything.
