I was just thinking about all the time travel scenarios we've seen in Trek, and had a peculiar vision: suppose they disguised a tricorder as a "Tickle me Elmo"?
"Hohoho! hahaha! Large concentrations of saurium krellide along vector 193.7 mark 28, distance 30 meters! Heeheehee!
Bystanders staring, the wielder (a Vulcan in the ever-present stocking cap) says: "This particular child's toy is obviously defective. I was merely on my way to return it to the place of purchase to obtain a refund."
Oh, well, I thought it was funny!

"Nothing can be altered, there is nothing to decide
No escape, no change of heart, no anyplace to hide
You are all I'll ever want, but this I am denied
Sometimes in my darkest thoughts, I wish I'd never learned
What it is to be in love and have that love returned"
I just love that Vulcan RaE animation!

Don't piss me off -- I'm running out of places to hide the bodies.
