Looking for a Trekkie who can quote from memory

Post by brillig » Sun Dec 19, 2004 4:20 pm

Ok, I'm going to make a sign for BM, but I need a certain a fitting quote from either the movies or tv. So if there is someone out there who's got a great memory, here's the general idea.
The quote has to be less than 30 words.
It needs to have a name of a person/creature/device that is recognisable to someone who isn't an expert.
The subject needs to be about travelling together.
So... something like "The three of us need to be beamed up immediately", or "There must be 4 Klingons flying that..."
Many thanks :)

And just because I can't help myself:
"Beam me up, Scotty"
Notes: From the Star Trek science-fiction TV series. Several variants of this do occur in the series, such as "Beam me aboard," or "Two to beam up", but "Beam me up, Scotty" was never said during the run of the original Star Trek series. The quote "Beam me up, Scotty" was actually uttered in the Star Trek animated series that aired in 1973-74.
well, you asked ...
