(Edith steps up onto a small stage with a piano)

Vagrant: You'll be sorry.

JanewayRulz! · September 7 2010, 11:58 AM

KIRK: Why?

leandar · September 7 2010, 02:15 PM

Vagrant: You expect to eat for free or something? You got to listen... to Goody Two-shoes.

JanewayRulz! · September 7 2010, 08:08 PM

EDITH: Now, as I'm sure somebody out there has said, it's time to pay for the soup.

Enterprise1981 · September 7 2010, 09:27 PM

VAGRANT: Not that she's a bad-looking broad, but if she really wanted to help out a fella in need..

Brian · September 7 2010, 09:55 PM

KIRK: Shut up. Shut up. I want to hear what she has to say.

Enterprise1981 · September 7 2010, 09:57 PM

SPOCK: Yes, of course, Captain.

JanewayRulz! · September 7 2010, 10:04 PM

EDITH: Now, let's start by getting one thing straight. I'm not a do-gooder. If you're a bum, if you can't break off of the booze or whatever it is that makes you a bad risk, then get out. Now I don't pretend to tell you how to find happiness and love when every day is just a struggle to survive, but I do insist that you do survive because the days and the years ahead are worth living for. One day soon man is going to be able to harness incredible energies, maybe even the atom. Energies that could ultimately hurl us to other worlds in some sort of spaceship. And the men that reach out into space will be able to find ways to feed the hungry millions of the world and to cure their diseases. They will be able to find a way to give each man hope and a common future, and those are the days worth living for. Our deserts will bloom.

(She continues under the dialogue.)

Brian · September 7 2010, 10:09 PM

KIRK: Development of atomic power is years away, and space flight years after that.

JanewayRulz! · September 7 2010, 10:17 PM

SPOCK: Speculation. Gifted insight.

Enterprise1981 · September 7 2010, 10:37 PM

KIRK: I find her most uncommon, Mister Spock.

leandar · September 8 2010, 12:32 AM

Edith: Prepare for tomorrow. Get ready, don't give up. (Later, when the bowls are being handed in, Edith calls after Kirk) Mr. Kirk! You are uncommon workmen. That basement looks like it's been scrubbed and polished.

JanewayRulz! · September 8 2010, 01:25 AM

KIRK: Then we can report back for other work?

leandar · September 8 2010, 01:41 AM

Edith: Yes, seven o'clock in the morning. Do you have a flop for the night?

Orac · September 8 2010, 02:22 AM

Kirk: What?
