This Is What I Think.

Today is 05/18/2024, Post #1





by me, Kerry Burgess, 05/18/2024 12:43 AM

Millions of details observed by me and - only a few hours later after my most recent blog-post here - and I make a completely random choice

Not only millions of possible details, but I scanned through the list of episodes of that old tv-series and specifically chose this episode "Resurgence"

Seen it before, couldn't tell you much of anything about it if I had tried to describe anything about it before I started watching it about half-hour ago

That recent incident of vandalism in downtown Spokane - subject of my recent blog-post here - ocurred on Thursday, same day I discovered was the unexpected debut of season 2 of the streaming-video serial "Outer Range" on Amazon Prime Video. I haven't started watching it yet, with their shink-flation collection down to only 7 episodes for the entire season, and now all with advertisements and at a higher-subscription to pay for Wasteful-naut Jeff Bezos and his excessive pollution of this planet's atmosphere, all for a bunch of pathetic First Worlders on a joyride to low-Earth space, and their fantastic accomplishment of absolutely nothing.

Looked back at a video from earlier today and thought how weird it was that I got the date wrong initially. I actually heard 'June 4th'. Cannot now find any sort reference to that, which I attributed to mistaken dialog from a person on the tv-news at 4 PM. But no, I seem to have completely got it wrong and served up a very relevant association that was because I misheard the dialog. Such a specific mistake by me. Fortunately, I double-checked before running away with it and my research discovered the truth much more disturbing.

And you won't hear Betsy whining about *that*.

No sobbing and weeping from her motely collection of clowns from tv-news about *that*

Yesterday, I worked on evaluation and examining the Event Date variable for 05/16/2024 because of "Outer Range". Now I have another detail for consideration

You must be a galactic-class moron to not recognize the pattern is obviously managed. For what purpose - Conspiracy or External-coordination - I shall never know for certain

This blog-post by me doesn't actually explain anything, if you haven't already figured that out. I have speculated before this is all some sort of "homework" for me

Go listen a podcast, you dim-wits, so you don't have to listen to your idiotic inner-voice when you read anything by a real person.

Stargate Universe - "Resurgence"" (part 1) - television series Season 2 Episode 10 - Aired Nov 30, 2010 on Syfy

(from internet transcript)

(They stand up and collect their helmets from one of the rear benches. Once they are fully suited up, Greer begins to attach one end of a cable to one of the columns, and Scott opens the rear doors to reveal the jagged hole in the side of the other ship. Adam shines a flashlight across the gap and Greer, holding the other end of the cable, walks to the rear of the shuttle.)

GREER: Let's go explore.

(He stops at the doors and looks across the gap. It's about twenty feet to the other ship.)

GREER: I'll see you on the other side!

(Pushing himself off, he floats across to the hole and drifts inside, managing to get one foot down onto the floor and the mag lock engaged. However, his forward impetus keeps his upper body going and although he holds out his hands to brace against the opposite wall, his head still thumps solidly into the surface. He stays in that position for a moment, getting his breath - and dignity - back, and then straightens up and reports.)

GREER: I'm on board.

(Cocking his rifle and checking around, he then ties off the cable around a couple of uprights, pulling it taut across the gap between the two vessels. In the shuttle, Adam clips a tether onto the cable and waits until Greer turns to face him.)

GREER: I'm ready for you.

(Keeping one hand on the cable, Adam heads towards the rear of the shuttle and looks across the gap nervously.)

BRODY: Oh, boy.

GREER (beckoning): Come on. I've got you.

(Adam braces himself and pushes off. Scott reports back to Destiny.)

SCOTT: Mr. Brody's en route.

(A few seconds later Adam drifts gently into the ship and steps down onto the floor, sighing with relief. Greer retrieves a case of equipment which Adam has towed behind him.)

GREER: We're both on board.

RUSH (from Destiny): Have a look around. See if there's anything you can salvage.









SCOTT: Hey, now, watch your asses over there, OK?

BRODY (to Greer): Just do me a favour: don't touch anything. If you see something you wanna investigate, just let me look at it first.

(They reach another closed bulkhead. Greer immediately thumps the wall button beside the doors.)

BRODY: Wow. What did I just say?









WALLACE: But these guys - they just go dark. They're not disabled or damaged - they're dormant.

(Young immediately turns, walks over to the command chair and flips the comms switch. The others hurry back to their stations.)

YOUNG: Lieutenant, I need you to fall back to the Destiny.

SCOTT: Sergeant Greer and Brody just boarded the wreck, sir.

YOUNG: I need you to get them out of there immediately. You may be in danger.

SCOTT: Yes, sir. Greer, did you get that?

GREER: We're on our way.

(He and Adam turn and begin to hurry back the way they just came. As Scott sits down and begins to prepare the shuttle to head back, something small whizzes rapidly past the window. Frowning, he stands up again and peers after it.)

SCOTT: What in the hell ...?

(On the Bridge, Eli turns and frowns at Young.)

YOUNG: Come again, Lieutenant?

SCOTT: I think ... uh, I think I just saw something.

YOUNG: What is it?

SCOTT: I'm not sure.

(On Destiny's Observation Deck, several crew members are looking out at the debris field. Suddenly something small whizzes rapidly past the window and heads towards the rear of the ship. Camille snatches out her radio.)

WRAY: Colonel, this is Camille. We're not alone out here.

(Out in the debris field, all of the smaller vessels begin to wake. Shortly afterwards, Scott watches as the drones - way more than just seven of them - whizz past. The simulation apparently only showed part of the fleets.)

SCOTT: Sir, you have potential hostiles en route.









(As sparks continue to fly, there's a disturbance in space nearby and a ship appears out of a vortex. It's very familiar to us and bears a startling resemblance to Destiny.)

VOLKER: A ship just dropped out of F.T.L.

(Unable to see the new arrival, the crew waits anxiously for more information. Finally Dale has enough data to make an identification.)

VOLKER: It's a seed ship!

(A new voice comes over the comms.)

TELFORD: Destiny, this is Telford.

YOUNG (shocked): David, how the hell ...?

TELFORD: No time for that now. I need you to follow us.

YOUNG: Where the hell're we goin'?

VOLKER: It's on the move.

YOUNG: Where are they going?

VOLKER: Directly towards the star.

YOUNG: Let's follow them. Divert all remaining power to the shields.

(Nicholas and Lisa type on their consoles. All around the ship the lights go out as the power shifts to the shields.)

VOLKER: Here we go.

(He types and Destiny chases off after the seed ship which is heading straight into the sun. Scores of drones pelt after them. As Destiny and her new friend plunge deep into the corona, the heat becomes too much for the drones and they explode.)









VOLKER: That bought us some time but we'll only have as long as it takes 'em to get around the star.

TELFORD (over comms): Hey, you're welcome!

(Everyone turns towards the voice, having momentarily forgotten who led them into the sun in the first place.)

TELFORD: Let's dock. I've got a helluva story to tell you and not much time to tell it.

LATER. The two ships have docked [and look worryingly as if they're motionless in space instead of caning it in the general direction of away]. Scott, Greer and Brody have collected David Telford en route and are escorting him onto the Bridge. He looks around the room in admiration as Young greets them.

YOUNG: Gentlemen.

TELFORD: Well, this is pretty damn impressive!

(Young walks over to him and they hug.)

YOUNG: Not as impressive as flying a seed ship to our rescue!

TELFORD: Yeah, well, I had plenty of help with that one. The aliens we encountered while exploring it: turns out they weren't hostile after all - just desperate.

(Flashback to Telford in the Control Room of the seed ship as the aliens come in from all directions and surround him.)

TELFORD: After Destiny disconnected and made the jump to F.T.L., I figured I was a goner. I was surrounded; they had me at their mercy.

WALLACE: But they ended up being friendly.

TELFORD: Well, I wouldn't go so far as to call them "friendly", but they weren't exactly interested in harming me either. They were ... curious. I tried communicating with them, but that was next to impossible - I mean verbally, anyway. So we found a short cut.

(Flashback to Telford walking into the room where the round red pods had been found.)

TELFORD: Their stasis pods are outfitted with neural stimulators designed to keep their occupants' brains active during extended hibernations, so when they hooked me up ... well, it's hard to describe the experience. Uh, it was like watching an entire film library in less than a day. I saw images, thousands of them. Most were a blur, totally incomprehensible, but others were clearer and, over time, the pieces drifted together and I was able to form a basic understanding of the aliens and their history.

(Flashback to Telford working on a console in the Control Room while one of the aliens walks towards him.)

TELFORD: They call themselves the Ursini, and after a while they began to trust me.

(Telford turns to the alien as it stops beside him, and they nod to each other.)

TELFORD: Eventually, working together, we were able to bring the seed ship online. Been trying to chase you down ever since.

YOUNG: But you've been gone for almost a month. What, uh, what'd you do for food and water?

TELFORD: Well, the pods provide basic nutrients to their occupants. Never thought I'd say this, but I missed the food here on Destiny!

WALLACE: So, wait a minute.

(He frowns at Telford cynically.)

WALLACE: These aliens helped you out of the goodness of their hearts?

TELFORD: Well, there's a little more to it than that.

(He looks round to Young.)

TELFORD: They need our help.

Star Trek: First Contact (1996)

(from internet transcript)

COCHRANE: So, what is it you want me to do?

RIKER: Simple. Conduct your warp flight tomorrow morning just as you planned.

COCHRANE: Why tomorrow morning?

RIKER: Because at eleven o'clock an alien ship will begin passing through this solar system.

COCHRANE: Alien? You mean extra-terrestrials. More bad guys?

TROI: Good guys. They're on a survey mission. They have no interest in Earth. ...Too primitive.

COCHRANE: Oh!

RIKER: Doctor, tomorrow morning when they detect the warp signature from your ship and realise that humans have discovered how to travel faster than light, they decide to alter their course and make first contact with Earth, right here.

COCHRANE: Here?

LAFORGE: Uh, actually over there.

RIKER: It is one of the pivotal moments in human history, Doctor. You get to make first contact with an alien race, and after you do, everything begins to change.

LAFORGE: Your theories on warp drive allow fleets of starships to be built and mankind to start exploring the Galaxy.

TROI: It unites humanity in a way no one ever thought possible when they realise they're not alone in the universe. Poverty, disease, war. They'll all be gone within the next fifty years.

RIKER: But unless you make that warp flight tomorrow morning before eleven fifteen, none of it will happen.

COCHRANE: And you people, you're all astronauts, ... on some kind of star trek?

LAFORGE: Look, Doc, I know this is a lot for you to take in, but we're running out of time here.

RIKER: We need your help. ...What do you say?

COCHRANE: Why not?
