Trying to Rest
113:47:49 McCandless: That's affirmative. That is O2. And do you have a time estimate for us until you're ready to start cabin Depress? Over.
113:48:05 Aldrin: Fifteen minutes, maybe?
113:48:10 McCandless: Roger.
[Comm Break]
[Aldrin, from the 1969 Technical Debrief - "There's no getting around it, it's another EVA Prep exercise. It's easier (because they stay on LM systems rather than having to hook up the PLSSs), but you still have to go through the same exercises such as pressure-integrity check, bleeding the cabin down, and configuring the ECS (Environmental Control System). I guess if you have two EVAs, it probably would be nicer to jettison your equipment at the beginning of the second one, rather than (getting in after the first EVA, repressurizing, hooking up to the LM ECS and) having to add another Depress (to do a jettison before starting the rest period). I'm not sure how they're planning to do this."]
[On the other missions, the crews did what Buzz suggested. At the start of each EVA, they took the trash out with them. The only extra jettison was done sometime between the end of the final EVA and the launch. This final jettison was done primarily to get rid of the PLSSs.]
113:50:30 McCandless: Tranquility Base, this is Houston. Uplink complete. The computer's yours, and you can go out of Data.
113:50:39 Armstrong: Roger. (Long Pause)
[Former Mercury Astronaut Deke Slayton, the Director of Flight Crew Operations who has primary responsibility for crew selection, joins the conversation. Alan Shepard works for Slayton and is Head of the Astronaut Office.]
113:59:50 Slayton: Tranquility Base, Houston.
113:59:59 Armstrong: Go ahead. Tranquility Base, here.
114:00:02 Slayton: Roger. Just want to let you guys know that, since you're an hour and a half over your timeline and we're all taking a day off tomorrow, we're going to leave you. See you later.
114:00:13 Armstrong: I don't blame you a bit.
114:00:16 Slayton: That's a real great day, guys. I really enjoyed it.
114:00:23 Armstrong: Thank you. You couldn't have enjoyed it as much as we did.
114:00:26 Slayton: Roger.
114:00:28 Aldrin: It was great.
114:00:30 Slayton: Sure wish you'd hurry up and get that trash out of there, though.
114:00:34 Armstrong: Yes. We're just about to do it.
114:00:36 Slayton: Okay.

Airdate October 25, 1993
In the teaser, Data sees three workmen destroying a warp plasma conduit. He tells them to stop, and after he speaks, he emits a high-pitched sound through his mouth. The workers tell him to be quiet, then attack and dismantle him. A startled Data suddenly wakes up in his bed.
The Enterprise is leaving a starbase after installing a new warp core. Captain Picard has been invited to annual Starfleet Admiral's Banquet on Starbase 219, and says that after six years, he's run out of excuses to avoid such a boring event.
Troi quoting Sigmund Freud: "Dreams are the royal road to the knowledge of the mind."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain%27s_Holiday_%28TNG_episode%29
After being urged by Counsellor Troi and the rest of the crew to take a break, Captain Picard has reluctantly agrees to take a vacation at Risa, a pleasure planet which is dedicated to providing tourists with a resort experience. Just after arriving, Picard is kissed by a woman he has never met. After she leaves, saying "Welcome to Risa," he says to himself, "A simple handshake would have sufficed." Having arrived, Picard attempts to relax poolside, but is constantly interrupted by women coming to ask if he wants company. He tells the fifth one no, she replies that she is confused for he says he wants no company, yet he displays the Horgon. The Horgon is a souvenir he bought for Riker, but the Horgon is really a symbol of sexuality and by displaying it, Picard is letting everyone know that he is in search of sexual coupling. After he puts the souvenir away he is rudely interrupted by Sovak, who is a Ferengi, and a human woman named Vash, who was the same woman that kissed Picard. Sovak accuses Picard of conspiring with Vash, who has stolen a valuable optical disc.
[Back in the day, a "horgon" was also known as a "pager."]

Subject: Re: I don't know if I am winning or losing an effort by the Borg to assimilate my mind.
And what memories are real and what memories are manipulated? Did I ever live in a town named Greenville and work repairing cash machines? Did I ever live in a place named Lincoln on the Green? What a clever way to express the concept of "follow the money." And what about Central and Greer? And did I live next to that road named Royal Point before that ST:TNG episode where Troi was talking about dreams being the "royal road"? Is any of this true?
