We all know what time it is. Time for:
Starship Josh: Birth of a Nation
[The Bridge is, once again, trashed. Crew members are scattered about, and Id is passed out in the command chair in his underwear, with his pants on his head like a jester hat. Commander SuperEgo walks in.]
SuperEgo: I...see. I'm pretty sure I know what happened here, but...Memory?
Voice of Memory on Speaker: Oui, Commandant?
S.Ego: [Slap hand to head, Sighs] I want to be surprised. I'm not, but I want to be. Ego?
[Ego enters the bridge. Rising out of his shirtcollar, traveling up his neck to his right cheek, is a giant penis drawn onto his face in black ink.]
[S.Ego and Ego look at each other]
S.Ego: So...still won't come off?
Ego: [Right eye flutters, inhales] No, sir. Id used permanent ink.
S.Ego: [Gestures to Id in the command chair] Well, by happy coincidence, I need Id dragged back to his quarters. Think you can handle that?
Ego: Oh, I think so, sir. [Takes out Sharpie, flicks off the cap.] I think I'm extremely capable.
[Grabs Id's ankle, hauls him out of the chair, begins dragging him off the bridge.]
Ego: I need an inhibition squad with a case of permanent markers to Id's chambers, on the double! [Leaves]
S.Ego: Ego, I don't think...oh, never mind. All right, Memory, what happened?
Memory: Dans deux mots, Pat Songy.
S.Ego: [Grunts] That'll do it. Anything interesting happen?
Memory: Bien, oui. Nous avons parlé, nous avons bu, nous avons joué "le Cercle de Mort" et "Jamais J'a Jamais," alors...
S.Ego: Wait, wait..."Cercle de Mort," Circle of Death I got, but...Jamais, that's ever or never, J'a, j'a...I have! "Ever I have Nev..." Oh, fuck.
Memory: C' est que j'ai dit.
S.Ego: We played "Never Have I Ever?" Do we still have friends?
Memory: Non, non, c'est bien. Songy et Branwyn ont joué, aussi, donc nous étions dans la bonne compagnie.
S.Ego: Those two played, too? Oh, good, at least we had company in our shame.
Memory: Oui, Monsieur. C'est un morceau brouillé, mais il y a quelque chose des chiens et de la corde et le séminaire.
S.Ego: [Moment of Silence] I have no idea what you just said and have decided that I am happier this way. To celebrate, I am shutting us down again and engaging the napping protocols.
Senesors: Commander! Cell phone ringing detected at 11 o'clock!
S.Ego: That's still too early. Hands, ears!
Auditory: Commander, it's Kris! She wants us to bring her Benadryl at work!
Ego on Speaker: Let's do it, Sir! We all love riding in like a white knight!
S.Ego: Ego, do you truly propose to play the white knight while wearing, what [checks visual], a doo-rag, sunglasses, and an "Also Available in Sober!!" shirt?
Ego: ...Sure, why not?
[Pause]
S.Ego: There's no part of this plan I don't love. Let's do it.
