Trump says Iran gave the US ‘a very big present’ related to oil and gas

by Rachel Frazin - 03/24/26 3:46 PM ET

President Trump said Tuesday that Tehran gave the U.S. a “present” related to oil and gas as the countries look toward a potential ceasefire, though he did not specify exactly what the gift was.

“They gave us a present and the present arrived today. It was a very big present worth a tremendous amount of money,” Trump said of Iran.

(from internet transcript)

YOUNG: Which brings me back to "how?"

CAINE: Honestly, I have no idea.

(On the shuttle, Robert Caine is sitting in the pilot's seat looking thoroughly bewildered. Behind him the rest of the crew who chose to stay behind on the planet in "Faith" are standing or sitting around looking equally confused.)

Later, Eli Wallace has joined the others on the Bridge. Young activates his radio.

YOUNG: Lieutenant Scott, report to the Bridge.

SCOTT (over radio): Yes, sir.

WALLACE: How could they have known when or where we were gonna come out of F.T.L. - or, for that matter, drop them right beside us? This is impossible.

YOUNG: And there they are.

BRODY: If it's them.

YOUNG: That's a fair question. Do you think that we could electronically compare the voice we are getting from the shuttle to an old Kino recording of Caine?

WALLACE: OK, trust me: these aliens built a planet from scratch and can just throw a shuttle between galaxies. I'm pretty sure they could impersonate Caine if they wanted to!

VOLKER: Boone used to do a pretty good Caine.

BRODY: I thought it was the other way around.

YOUNG: So, what? We take them for their word? They are who they say they are and ignore the possibility that this could be a ruse to get by our defences?

WALLACE: Like a Trojan horse?

RUSH: The truth is, with aliens that can do this, defences are meaningless.

YOUNG: Wouldn't mind having a working shuttle again.









(Nodding, Young re-activates the comms.)

YOUNG: Sorry for the delay, Doctor Caine. I've asked Lieutenant Scott to come and help talk you through the docking procedure.

CAINE: I don't even drive a car.

BRODY: Just what a Trojan would say!

WALLACE: The guys in the horse were Greek!

BRODY: Well, then, why's it Trojan horse, then? Beause they're from Troy!

WALLACE: Because ...

YOUNG: You guys done?
