GoldiSpock and the Three Bears (Part 3)

After Spock’s team went missing in action during Part One, they were finally spotted by a bird perched high in a tree. Unfortunately, they were found to be lost and without a functioning tricorder. Forced to resort to a toy compass to gain their bearing, they eagerly waited for the needle to stop spinning.
  Meanwhile, Ensign Jackson was finally eaten, but by a bear rather than a Venus flytrap, and Kirk and McCoy found themselves caught in a net, dangling from a tree.
  The Enterprise had still not been heard from.

High above Gamma Ursa IV orbited a large gray ship whose less than graceful design—a large saucer connected to an angled neckpiece that sat upon a cigar-shaped body, one nacelle sticking out on each side—was by no means beautiful, but could nevertheless win your heart. As Starfleet’s flagship, the U.S.S. Enterprise was equipped with state-of-the-art technology and was one of mankind’s greatest achievements. An outside observer would have taken note of this ship with admiration. They would have also taken note of it with odd curiosity due to one particular feature. Protruding from the ship’s cigar-shaped body, just at the point where the angled neckpiece joined it, was a thin piece of ordinary string that rose indefinitely into space above the ship. The observer would have been at a loss to explain this feature.
  Inside this great metallic space bird sat a young Japanese man. And he looked delighted.
  The chair in which he sat was not his. Rather it belonged to Captain James T. Kirk. But Hikaru Sulu had been told to keep it warm until the captain returned.
  He looked down at the arm of the chair and pressed a small button. Almost immediately a sound filled the air.
  "Aye, Scotty ‘ere" said the Enterprise’s chief engineer, Montgomery Scott, his Scottish accent making every word sound delightful. "Wha’ canna do for ya?"
  "I’m sorry to disturb you Mr. Scott," replied Sulu politely, "but I just wanted to remind you that I’m George Takei."
  "Understood, laddie."
