Never Go Full GLoP

Subscribe to GLoP CultureSubscribe

It's a new month and that means a new GLoP. They eschew all of the obvious cultural issues in the news (despite some prodding from outside parties, ahem) and concentrate on --not kidding-- Mickey Rooney, robot babies, the problem with private schools, Gone With The Wind, Tropic Thunder, and some gossip from down south.

    (Miranda meets Spock coming out of Kollos' quarters.)

    SPOCK: The Enterprise is at stake. It is not possible for you to be involved.

    MIRANDA: Why? I've already committed myself to mind-link when Kollos and I reach the Medusan vessel. Why put yourself in jeopardy?

    SPOCK: This is not a duty that you can assume. I am aware of the fact that your telepathic competence might be superior to mine, but there's a more important factor. The object is to pilot this ship. That is something you cannot do.

    MIRANDA: Then teach me to operate the ship. I can memorise instantly.

    MCCOY: Now wait a minute. I realise that you can do almost anything a sighted person can do, but you can't pilot a starship.

    KIRK: What?

    SPOCK: Fascinating.

    MCCOY: I'm sorry, Miranda, but you must be realistic. You are blind, and there are some things you simply cannot do.

    (Spock touches the decorated over-dress she always wears.)

    SPOCK: Evidently a highly sophisticated sensor web. My compliments to you, and to your dressmaker.

    KIRK: Yes, of course. It's the only reasonable explanation. You can't see and Kollos can't hurt you.

    If anyone's interested, that's the Norman Rockwell painting "Gossips," an idea he later reworked into the 1976 Bell System Bicentennial phone book cover.

    Wow, I guess Norman Rockwell (1894-1978) was still alive in 1976, but he seems like a figure from an earlier and different time.
