I tried to find out from Lee how many CapComs there had been, but he didn't get me the answer in time, so I couldn't use it as I'd hoped. Maybe I'll get it changed when/if I find out...

Anyway, this CapCom has a slight twist. Rather than finding a picture I liked for each one, I already had some captions in mind, and I purposely found pix to go w/ those captions. First person to come up w/ the caption I was thinking of gets and automatic honorable mention. (Each one is a quote from something, BTW.) Don't think you shouldn't come up w/ originals, though. For the most part, it's a normal CapCom... :-)

[thanks to Frank "The Shadow" Gerratana for the vidcaps]

This one is probably going to be somewhat difficult, since the picture doesn't look quite the way I'd imagined before seeing it. It's a quote from a book (or the movie, if you like). Remember that he's looking into space, and remember what there are a lot of in space. (Now I've probably given it away...)

Picard, thinking: It could have been mine ALL MINE! bloody Data and that meddling Crusher. Sleep! Sleep! I said - I wanted bloody sleep - not to destroy the collective arrrgh and that Riker don't let me get started on...

Picard (to himself) maybe if I stand really still, Deanna will stop ringing the doorbell, and leave.

Picard, in one of his less lucid moments, decided to shrink the Earth and hide it in his ready room.

Picard: "Number One!"

Riker: *over commlink* "Sir?"

Picard: "There's some greasy fingerprints on the outside of my Ready Room window. See to it."

Riker: "How, sir?"

Picard: "Send out a man in a suit, of course!"

Riker: "No, I meant, how could they have possibly got there?"

Picard: *screams* "Q!!!!!!"

Well, Lee gets the honorable mention in this one, though I prefer the book's "Oh my god, it's full of stars"... :-)

Picard, not fully recovered from assimiltation talks to the reflection in the glass thinking it is a borg drone he can communicate with.

Joey: Mommy, mommy. What is that?!?!

Joey's Mother: Go over and ask the zoo tour guide. He'll know for sure.

Joey: Mister, mister, what is that??

Guide: *smugly* Well, small person, that's our Picard exhibit. We are really quite proud of it.

Joey: Really?? What does it do?? Can I feed him peanuts??

Guide: *laughing* No. At the Talorian Zoo, we don't allow the guests to feed our exhibits. They are far too fragile. *bends down to the the child's level to explain further* See how we've made the inside of his cage look like a star ship captain's quarters? You've seen those in books. We want him to feel as comfortable as possible. We've even painted a planet on his window so he will think he's in space.

Joey: *seeing Picard's lips moving* What is he saying??

Guide: *laughing again* Well, let's just listen. *flips on the intercom*

Picard: *taps com badge* Damn it Riker, come in! Computer? Anyone? *sigh* Captain's log. Stardate unkown. Just made another attempt at contact. Still it's been 2345 days and I am alone. Have they just forgot about me? Or have they locked me in my ready room as some sort of extended practical joke? It remains to be seen, but when I find out, those bastards will pay dearly! And that damn planet hasn't moved yet!! Picard out.

Guide: See, facinating, isn't it? *bends over to talk to the child again* Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?

As stated above, the honorable mention goes to none other than the inventor of the CapCom himself, The First One, for realizing the 2001 reference. I thought it would've been harder, since there aren't any stars reflecting off the window...

The runner-up this time is Xentrick, for Shatner's Twilight Zone appearance.

And the winner is... Jay! The Airplane reference at the end, despite having nothing to do w/ anything, makes it even funnier. :-)
