Like I said, I'm just being realistic. Prepare yourself for four years of disappointment.

Sit down with me a minute, Mr. Sulu. Let's have a J, while I explain to you the duties of the captain. It is my responsibility to insure the safety of this ship and crew. Right now, we are running low on dilithium crystals, with no new source in sight. Our life support system is sputtering, and you will notice that both CO2 levels and the temperature have gone up a bit. The crew is rebelling cuz I haven't been able to pay their wages in the last 2 years. We're in the middle of a battle with both the Klingons and the Romulins. Q is telling me that we have to accept him as our God, and he's been bouncing us around the universe. Alien creatures are trying to sneak in thru the hull. The bulkheads are crumbling from lack of maintenance. The food synthesizer is making funny noises and giving off smoke. Bones had to fire 2 nurses, an aide, and limit sick call to once a week. I need to hold hearings to see if I should recommend court martial for Captain Pike when I get some time. I really don't have time to deal with the fact that there is one pawn missing from the chess set. Get yer priorities straight, Mister. That is the difference between an ensign, and yers truly, Captain Kirk
