    How many Star Trek characters does it take to change a light bulb?


    Nine...


    When the lightbulb goes out in engineering, Scotty reports the problem to Captain Kirk.

    Mister Spock evaluates the situation and immediately sets a course for the nearest light bulb producing planet at warp factor six.

    Upon arrival, Kirk, Spock and Bones beam down to the planet with two random security officers to search for light bulbs, but as soon as they materialize on the surface they are attacked by native savages.

    Both of the security officers are killed in the struggle that follows, while Captain Kirk gets very sweaty and manages to tear his uniform (tut tut). Then Kirk, Spock and Bones are taken prisoner and brought before the emperor of the planet, who orders their execution for trespassing on his world, and they are thrown into a prison cell 'till the next morning.

    Meanwhile, a Klingon ship appears in orbit and opens fire on the Enterprise. Sulu attempts to target the Klingons, but this proves incredibly difficult due to new improvements in the Klingon cloaking device.

    The ship's weapons systems become damaged, but Scotty is unable to do anything about it because the engine room is dark, and he can't see a bloody thing.

    Lieutenant Uhura contacts Captain Kirk and informs him of the situation. All appears lost, when it is suddenly discovered that the emperor has contracted measles, a condition which the planet's natives and their primitive medical technology are unable to treat.

    So Doctor McCoy works his magic, and cures the emperor of the dreaded disease. The emperor is so greatful that he allows the three Starfleet men to go free, and also rewards them with a supply of light bulbs.

    Returning to the Enterprise, Kirk and Spock receive a report on the situation from Mister Chekov. Scotty installs the new light bulb in engineering, and so is able to quickly repair the Enterprise's weapons with just a wrench and a philips screwdriver.

    Then the Klingon ship returns for another attack, and Lieutenant Uhura reports that the Klingons are demanding the Enterprise's surrender. Spock works out a way to target the Klingons more easily, despite their new hi-tech cloaking device, because he's such a bloody smart arse.

    Then the good Enterprise crew kick Klingon butt, Kirk makes a witty remark conserning the recent situation, and they all fly off into the sunset.

    Yes, how can you have an episode of star trek without Kirk chasing after some tart or other?

    And after Captain Kirk's witty remark, McCoy laughs and Spock raises his eyebrow as he contemplates this Earth thing called "humour"
