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.

Currently, the Vulcan Science Directorate has deemed time travel an impossibility. [She knows, she said it over and over while being tortured, it was good times.]

Commander Spock has said it's become a reality in your time.
