Captain Jellico: “Riker, if I wasn’t already Captain I’d give you a promotion!”
“Get some toothpicks and some string and build a nuclear reactor for crying out loud!”
The one with the arches sends me back.
The true face of “age verification.”
Desbians.
Segueing into Far Side territory.
And getting paid six figures.
Mid-century crisis.
Biblically-accurate clover.
Oh, I’m not UNinvited, yay.

"You're as much a prisoner in time as I am." - Captain John Christopher
An American Air Force base in Omaha scrambles fighters to intercept a UFO that suddenly appeared hovering in the skies overhead. It's the Enterprise. A dark star caused the ship to slingshot backwards through time to 1960s Earth. While the damage to the Enterprise is light and can be easily repaired, one of the fighters makes visual contact with the Enterprise. Captain Kirk orders the fighter to be held in a tractor beam, which causes the fragile aircraft to break apart. Kirk has no choice but to beam its pilot; Captain John Christopher (Roger Perry) aboard and try to explain things to him. In addition to figuring out how to get back to the 23rd Century, the problem now includes how to get Captain Christopher back to Earth and erasing all records of the Enterprise's presence without contaminating the timeline any further than it already has been.

"He could not live knowing that I lived. He became obsessed with the idea of destroying me." - Lazarus
The Enterprise is surveying a planet when the ship is suddenly rocked by multiple shockwaves. Commander Spock's instruments suggest the impossible - the planet and the ship blinked out of existence for a split second. Enterprise then receives an alarming message from Starfleet; The phenomenon occurred across the entire known universe, and was centered on the planet they are orbiting. Starfleet Command thinks this could be prelude to an invasion by an unknown force and all nearby starships have been ordered to escape the area... leaving the Enterprise all alone to act as bait.

"We will resolve your conflict in the way most suited to your limited mentalities." - The Metrons
Captain Kirk takes a landing party down to the Federation colony of Cestus III with the expectation of relaxing. They find the entire colony has been destroyed by an unknown force and soon both the landing party and the Enterprise come under fire. After a tense moment, Kirk on the ground and Sulu on the bridge of the Enterprise manage to push back their attackers. Once back aboard, Kirk orders pursuit of the enemy vessel with visible anger and at great risk to the ship's engines. When they do catch up to the enemy vessel, is has suddenly stopped and is without power. The Enterprise herself is also ground to a halt and held in place by an unknown force. Both ships have entered the solar system of a highly advanced race that despises violence. As punishment, both ship's Captains are made to fight to the death on a barren planet.

"These experiences were intended to amuse you." - The Caretaker
The Enterprise finds a lush and uninhabited planet similar to native Earth and Captain Kirk has select members of the crew perform a survey before beaming down the crew for some much overdue shore leave. As McCoy watches Sulu become excited about collecting flora samples for study, he suddenly runs across a giant, upright rabbit wearing clothes and checking a pocket watch while lamenting that he's running late. Not some alien creature, but something right out of a fairytale. McCoy cannot make rational sense of what he saw and declares himself unfit for duty... until other members of the survey team begin seeing things, realistic and fantastic, that should not be there.

The icing on the cake is them now capping your watch history. They're already selling my data, but I can't mark too many things as watched without paying? Even if all the floating tiles and sliders loaded in a way they could be seen and used, that's taking it too far. What a shit show that site has become.
Any suggestions?
