Augments Arc Line-by-Line!

[LeadHead]

Smike: What do you mean?

 

[Skywalker]

ARCHER: Your biological father was Miklos Karlovassi. He was a geophysicist. (shows Smike a PADD with an image of his father on it)

 

[Alienesse]

SMIKE: How do you know that?

 

[Skywalker]

ARCHER: We got the information from Soong's computer. (brings up a new image) Your mother's name was Irina. She was an athlete; decathlon. Won a silver medal in the Olympics. (puts down the PADD and returns to his dinner) We've got a lot of historical data on both of your parents. You're welcome to look at it. (watches as Smike takes the PADD and starts reading)

(Enterprise Mess Hall)

(Archer walks in and sees Phlox sitting alone with a big pile of food. He grabs a mug and puts it into the beverage dispenser.)

ARCHER: Coffee.

 

[Alienesse]

PHLOX: I'm approaching a new sleep cycle.

 

[LeadHead]

Archer: When does your hibernation begin?

 

[Alienesse]

PHLOX: Not for another few weeks, but I would like to increase my body mass by at least ten percent. To tell you the truth, I'm not very hungry.

 

[LeadHead]

Archer: You're worried about Doctor Lucas?

 

[Enterprise1981]

PHLOX: We've been friends a very long time.

 

[LeadHead]

Archer: We're getting there as fast as we can Phlox.

 

[Enterprise1981]

PHLOX: You might be interested to know Smike's become quite the student of Earth history. He's been reading up on the Eugenics Wars.

 

[LeadHead]

Archer: I doubt Soong gave him the whole story.

 

[Skywalker]

PHLOX: I'm quite familiar with the subject, myself. Human intellect and human instinct were out of sync. So many people were killed.

 

[LeadHead]

Archer: The official number was 30 million. Some historians say it was closer to 35.

 

[Skywalker]

PHLOX: I can understand why Earth banned genetic engineering.

 

[LeadHead]

Archer sits down at the table.

Archer: What do you know about Clarke's syndrome?

 

[Skywalker]

PHLOX: Oh, it's a degenerative brain disorder that afflicts humans.

 

[LeadHead]

Archer: My father died of it, when I was 12.

 

[Skywalker]

PHLOX: I'm sorry.

 

[Enterprise1981]

ARCHER: He had frequent pain, hallucinations, he talked to people who weren't there. Often couldn't recognise me or my mother. The last two years of his life
