Storyline
Announcement
Exploration throughout the galaxy has led to new discoveries and new lifeforms, which have brought with them new questions about what constitutes sentient life. But when a member of the Cerritos crew finds herself at the center of that debate, it may yield more chaos than answers. [1]
Prologue
- Scorpion Tendi: "Whose stupid idea was it to have a Convergence Day party on the ship? Where we meet our other selvesl? If I have to hear Pirate Tendi talk pirate one more time, I'm gonna explode!"
- Dr. T'Ana: "Whoa there! Still not enough sedatives huhl? Captain, you picked a rough time to join us. As you can see, things are a little chaotic here. Looks like that cube modified Tendi's DNA and now she transforms anytime she's angry."
- Migleemo: "Well now, that sounds like a bit of a pickle now, doesn't it? With the Federation's New Life initiative, they aim to avoid moral quandaries like that of the Tuvix debacle by bringing life forms formed from old crew members before Starfleet Medical to be handled ethically."
- Captain Carol Freeman: "An ethics complaint is just the sort of thing Carol Freeman does NOT need on her personnel records! But I need my budding science officer back too! Captain, think you could give us a hand getting all this sorted?"
Intermission
- Vindicta Mariner: "Lookin' good, Tendi! Heard you put nine members of the security team in sickbay. Make it ten and they'll give you a prize!"
- Migleemo: "Don't listen to her, Tendi, remember what we practiced. Deep breath in, deep breath out. See the millet, be the millet. Count the granules as they fall away like beads of stress. One...two..."
- Captain Carol Freeman: "Of course, this whole New Life edict has made it harder to deal with Vindicta here as well, and she in turn has made it her mission to antagonize Tendi."
- Choice A
- Captain: "How so?"
- Captain Carol Freeman: "As a sentient hologram, she's being given rights the same as any other human being. So until we get explicit approval from Starfleet Medical's Ethics Board, I can't just send her back to the holodeck to be shut off."
- Choice B
- Captain: "I think Tendi is great as a scorpion."
- Vindicta Mariner: "Right? I mean, kid's got more backbone now that she's an invertebrate than she ever did before."
- Choice C
- Captain: "Is 'be the millet' the best Federation psychology has to offer?"
- Migleemo: "Captain, this is a standard visualization exercise. Why, it dates back centuries, to a time when..."
- Captain Carol Freeman: "I know you mentioned you might have found a cure for Tendi's condition, Captain. I know you're a sharp thinker, so if you can manage to pull it off without upsetting this 'New Life' initiative, I'd be truly grateful.
