I don't think these things are malfunctioning at all but if it's just an excuse to roll call, then I'm Captain James T. Kirk. My friends call me Jim.

[He tips the communicator to the side, and there's Spock. Looking stoic as always.]

And that's Spock. Don't worry kids, he always looks like that. He won't bite.

[Y E P he's met older Spock.]

One created when the Romulan in question altered the timeline, yes.

[Beat.]

May I ask what happened when one's own timeline is interfered with by a past or future version of oneself?

My crew and I were transported to a milestone era in early twenty-first century Earth history. My captain, through no fault of his own [temporal regulation officers have ears EVERYWHERE, you never know], interfered in a landmark civil rights movement.

As a result, entire planets were wiped out. We were forced to directly interfere in historical events, in order to set things right. I can't imagine that the consequences of losing Vulcan would be any less dire.

[His brow furrows with what could almost be worry.]

The long-term effects upon my timeline are not yet apparent. It has only been a few weeks.
