Getting screwed over by waitresses in 2151

ravenI found out recently that I'm in my school's prospectus. I seem to remember, back in the first year, exchanging my right not to have photographs taken of me for five priority lunch passes. Sigh.... I am such a cheap date. Although I have a cheap date of my own (*coughcough![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
purplerainbowcoughcough*).
Anyway...
I sometimes think I need two journals, one for fangirlishness and one for real life stuff. Anyway, that's not the point.
I'd been looking forward to seeing Shuttlepod One ever since I first read about it. I missed the first two minutes, and so, therefore, most of the crucial parts, but nevermind, I liked it. We see our intrepid heroes despair as they believe Enterprise has been destroyed, and then we see them repair punctures in the pod hull with bits of dehydrated mashed potato. Who said Home Economics wasn't useful?
Trip and Malcolm are both extremely good characters, in my humble opinion, much more believable than the ship's captain or Hoshi. Trip's the wholesome Southern farmboy, and Malcolm is more British than anything else. They annoy the hell out of each other while waiting for the oxygen to run out, and discover something else they have in common with an inspired bit of dialogue which I do not have verbatim. The gist of it is, Trip is waxing lyrical about how he met the love of his life (a waitress named Ruby) in some Starfleet trainees' bar. He's surprised to find out Malcolm knows the bar, and even more surprised to find he also knew Ruby. Knew her "many times."
One of the reasons I love Enterprise. People still get screwed over by waitresses in 2151.
There's a brief bit about T'Pol - they dedicate a toast to Sub-commander T'Pol's bum - but the whole ep ends too soon for me. I just liked it very much.
Pity I have to miss M*A*S*H to watch it!
