ABBY (on the phone) Yes, Brian really liked the movie. I knew he would. Fortunately he hasn’t said “I told you so” to me yet.
(Andy, dressed as Kirk, Carrie dressed as the red headed Orion and Brian dressed as Spock appear next to her desk)
ANDY (to Abby) Open hailing frequencies, Lieutenant.
BRIAN Fascinating.
ABBY I am not wearing a miniskirt.

ABBY We should go see Star Trek.
BRIAN I don’t know, doesn’t watching Star Trek make you into one of those crazy people?
ABBY It’s just a movie. Just watching it doesn’t “make” you do anything.
BRIAN I don’t know. I’ve seen those people that speak Klingon and wear costumes all the time. I don’t want to turn into one of them.
ANDY (Still in his Starfleet uniform, hands Abby her mail) Incoming communication from Starfleet!

BRIAN So I got my job back at Worldstar with back pay.
ABBY Congratulations.
BRIAN It doesn’t seem very financially responsible to throw off my payroll that way.
ABBY Brian, they were using you. You were on a mission. They knew the enemy would want to get their hands on you.
BRIAN Really?
ABBY That’s right, even though you didn’t know it at the time. You were officially a field agent.
ABBY And you know what James Bond always does after finishing a mission?
BRIAN Files his expense report?
