I wrote once about that new uniform. I think that is the one where they add the collar to the uniform.

Evolution (Star Trek: The Next Generation)

"Evolution" is the 49th episode of the science fiction television series Star Trek: The Next Generation and the first episode of the show's third season. It was first broadcast on September 25, 1989. It was the first episode written by Michael Piller, who became the head of the writing staff four episodes later. Piller went on to co-create and executive produce both Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Star Trek: Voyager.

The episode re-introduced Gates McFadden as Chief Medical Officer Beverly Crusher, who had been replaced for the second season by Katherine Pulaski played by Diana Muldaur. Also, in this episode the ship's Chief Engineer, Geordi La Forge, was shown to have been recently promoted to Lieutenant Commander and Klingon Chief of Security Worf was made a full Lieutenant. It also marked the first appearance of the redesigned two-piece Starfleet uniforms which would be used for the rest of the series.

In this episode, escaped nanites threaten the Federation Starfleet starship USS Enterprise as well as its critical research mission, thereby jeopardizing the entire mission.

SHEPPARD: What the hell?

TEYLA: Nanites!

(The screen shows that John's entire body is teeming with thousands of the little buggers.)

OUTER EDGE OF THE CITY. Rodney and Ronon exit a transporter and Rodney checks his life signs detector. They make their way along a corridor but partway along Rodney stops and looks at the wall.

McKAY: There's supposed to be a room here.

(He puts his hand against the wall and looks at the detector again.)

McKAY: There is a room here.

(He presses against the wall and it opens, revealing a room behind it.)

DEX: Wait.

(He takes out his blaster, raises it and precedes Rodney into the dark room. As Rodney steps inside, the lights come on. They stare in amazement as they see someone lying on her back on a table in the middle of the room. She is wearing an Atlantis uniform and her eyes are closed. It's Elizabeth Weir.)

McKAY: Elizabeth!

(They run across to her and help her to sit up.)

DEX: Easy, easy.

(Elizabeth looks at them in confusion.)

McKAY: How did you get here?

WEIR: I-I don't know.

KELLER: I can answer that.

(The three of them look around to see Jennifer standing in the doorway with a couple of armed guards. She smiles at them.)

KELLER: This is where we made her. This is where we made you all.

NEW ATHOS. The Replicator versions of Team Sheppard are waiting in a tent and look up as Elizabeth leads the real Team Sheppard inside. The latter foursome stare in amazement.

WEIR: Well, I suppose introductions aren't really necessary.

SHEPPARD: Great(!) Last time I came face to face with myself, I ended up kicking my own ass.

(Ronon walks over to face his Replicator self and they stand toe to toe and glare at each other. RepliRodney looks admiringly at Rodney's leather jacket.)

RepliMcKAY: Nice jacket!

McKAY: Uh, yeah, it's new. We got new versions of those uniforms. The old ones used to ...

RepliMcKAY and McKAY (simultaneously): ... bunch up under the arms.

McKAY: Yeah.

RepliMcKAY: Huh!

SHEPPARD (to Elizabeth): You said you've got something for us.

RepliSHEPPARD: Yeah. McKay.

(Both Rodneys look round at him.)

McKAY: Hmm?

RepliSHEPPARD: No, my McKay.

RepliMcKAY: Oh, yeah, right.

(Clicking his fingers, he walks to a different part of the tent to fetch something. The Ronons are still staring at each other, the real one smiling humourlessly. RepliRodney brings the core drive over to the group.)

TEYLA: What is that?

RepliMcKAY: This is the core drive of a Replicator ship tracking system. Once it is up and running, we'll be able to track every Aurora-class Replicator ship in the Pegasus galaxy.

RepliSHEPPARD: It's not much, but it's a start.

McKAY: Are you kidding?! This is huge! We can get working on a ...

RepliMcKAY and McKAY (simultaneously): ... modification programme ...

RepliMcKAY: ... uh, reconfigure the base sequencing ...

McKAY: ... run it through one of the Ancient relays so the information's ...

RepliMcKAY and McKAY (simultaneously): ... automatically adapted and outputted.

SHEPPARD: "Outputted"? Is that even a word?

McKAY: Of course it is!

RepliMcKAY: We can't both be wrong.

(John grimaces.)

RepliMcKAY: Look, we need to get started on this now.

RepliSHEPPARD: Whoa, whoa. Not so fast. (He looks at John.) Where do you plan on doing this? We're too big of a security risk to be allowed back on Atlantis.

SHEPPARD: He's got a ... I've got a point. (To the Rodneys) You two are gonna have to find another way to do that.

McKAY: It's not a problem. I'll just go back to Atlantis and get what we need. We can do all the work right here.

RepliMcKAY: Oh, this is great! Finally, someone in whom I can have a hundred percent confidence! I cannot tell you how much I'm looking forward to working with you!

McKAY: And this is just the beginning!

(The Johns grimace at each other.)

RepliMcKAY: Humanity's about to benefit from one of the greatest living scientific minds times two!

McKAY: Can you imagine?!

RepliSHEPPARD: I'm trying not to.
