I Love Star Trek With All My Heart, But Good God, Whenever I See Them Do "Science" It Makes Me Laugh

I love Star Trek with all my heart, but good god, whenever I see them do "Science" it makes me laugh so hard because PPE and Safety Protocols are literally nonexistent

Not to mention WHERE is the fume hood......

And not a single Electronic balance to be seen

When you're writing your own fantasy names and places down and Microsoft Word hits you with that little red squiggle:

#I'LL decide how it's spelt, MICROSOFT!

Person: What's your book about?

Writers:

I'm both somehow 🙃

Writing is so painful because on the other hand putting these characters through hell is necessary for character development and plot progression, but on the other hand, I just want to let them be happy and together off in a cottage somewhere , and it is HURTING ME to do this to them

PRODIGAL SON "PUSH BUTTON"

Years ago, I promised Prodigal Son fans, aka the Prodigies, that once the show was done, I'd publish my unproduced episode (cancelled because the COVID19 pandemic hit on day two of filming). And then... I kinda forgot because I'm a bad person. Also the COVID years morphed into my gig on The Irrational and then the strike and then Season Two and... you get the picture.

Anyway if you go to my WGA profile page, I added a PDF for my episode, "Push Button." Please enjoy! (You might have to hunt for it a bit, but it's there.)

Also worth noting, on the same page you can read the script for episode 308 of Elementary and my unproduced space opera Morningstar.

So... promise kept!

Eventually.
