OBLIGATORY BEN FRANKLIN QUOTE
"Our new Constitution is now established, and has an appearance that promises permanency; but in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes."
- Benjamin Franklin, Letter to Jean-Baptiste Leroy (13 November 1789)

JUST WAVES IN SPACE
The strange thing about television is that it doesn't *tell* you everything. It *shows* you everything about life for nothing, but the true mysteries remain. Perhaps it's in the nature of television. Just waves in space.

RELEASE THE BATS
My baby is a cool machine
She moves to the pace of her generator,
Says damn that sex supreme
She says damn that horror bat
Sex vampire, cool machine

GODDAMN IT, JONES
Explosion of escaping gas.
The lid on a freezer pops open.
Slowly, groggily, KANE sits up.
Pale.
Kane rubs the sleep from his eyes.
Stands.
Looks around.
Stretches.
Looks at the other freezer compartments.
Scratches.
Moves off.
INT. GALLEY
Kane plugs in a Silex.
Lights a cigarette.
Coughs.
Grinds some coffee beans.
Runs some water through.
KANE
Rise and shine, Lambert.
Rise and shine, Lambert.
INT. HYPERSLEEP VAULT
Another lid pops open.
A young woman sits up.
LAMBERT
What time is it.
KANE
What do you care.
What time is it.
KANE
What do you care.
INT. GALLEY
Pot now half-full.
Kane watches it drip.
Inhales the fragrance.
KANE
Now Dallas and Ash.
(calls out)
Good morning Captain.
DALLAS
Where's the coffee.
KANE
Brewing.
Now Dallas and Ash.
(calls out)
Good morning Captain.
DALLAS
Where's the coffee.
KANE
Brewing.
LAMBERT walks into the kitchen.
Pours herself a cup.
INT. HYPERSLEEP VAULT
Two more lids pop open.
A pair of men sit up.
Look at each other.
INT. GALLEY
Kane enjoys a freshly-brewed cup.
KANE
Ripley...
Ripley...
Another moment.
And then the sound of another lid opening.
KANE
And if we have Parker, can Brett be far behind.
And if we have Parker, can Brett be far behind.
Lid opening sound.
KANE
Right.
Right.
INT. HYPERSLEEP VAULT
DALLAS looks at his groggy circus.
DALLAS
One of you jokers get the cat.
One of you jokers get the cat.
RIPLEY picks up a limp cat out of one of the compartments.

MR.SPOCK: You're the captain of this ship. You have no right to be vulnerable. In the eyes of the crew you can't afford the luxury of being anything less than perfect. If you do, they lose faith and you lose command.
CAPTAIN JAMES T. KIRK: Yeah, well... (sigh) ...whatever. Listen, Spock. Take this fucking space dog thing. I'm going back to my quarters to jerk it to some ancient alien porn we found in a cave on Alfa 77, so, uh, hold my calls.
MR.SPOCK: Motherfucker.
