You'll understand if I don't do a contest like that again for a while, maybe even a decade. Anyway, I thought I'd through you people another curveball this week by grabbing a few pictures from TrekCore's Rare Photos gallery. First up, we have a test shot from the bridge set of the aborted TV series Star Trek: Phase II, which ended up becoming TMP, so it still counts for our purposes. Next, we have a shot from an edited portion of First Contact. Finally, in what is sure to be ripe for Photoshopping, we honor newly-knighted Sir Patrick Stewart. Have at:

For hitting one out of the park on the first pitch...
![]()
The common, though rarely seen phenomena of Kirk's "Awesomeness" arriving shortly before himself.
For proving that there are some things out there worse than having mind-control slugs shoved into your ear canal, our winner is...
![]()
"...follows madness. And death. But, enough about the Michael McDonald I have filtering through your helmets. I want to know about Genesis."
And for running a little interference, our winner is...
![]()
McCoy: "Look Robau, You pretty good, but Jim Kirk's the true bad-ass."
Robau: "And where is this "Jim Kirk" right now."
McCoy: "In the ladies powder room, shagging your date."
.
For one of the few jokes not involving pulling of fingers, our winner is...
![]()
Maitre D': "Flo, show this gentleman and his dark-robed companion to our best table over there. And don't push the franks 'n' beans on them. The last diners who got that dish put a hole in our counter the size of Cleveland."
For adding a bit more looneyness into a scene apparently inspired by Wile E. Coyote, our winner is...
![]()
Kirk: "I have just one question Spock. Where's the turbo lift car?"
For providing ample reason for sensible phaser control laws, our winner is...
![]()
Scotty, to vending machine: "That's the last bloody credit ye'll ever take from me ..."
For adding new meaning to "Up your shaft," our winner is...
![]()
Picard: "The bath running, mood music, aromatherapy candles. Did I interrupt a little 'me time' Guinan."
Guinan: "You know my door is always open to you Jean-Luc."
Picard: "What's that buzzing sound?"
Guinan: "I don't hear anything."
muffled under cushion: "Batteries low, please replace, batteries low, please replace."
Guinan: "Does everything in this fucking century have to have a voice?"
For the picture that didn't get a lot of love, our winner is...
![]()
Bartender: "Riker? Riker sleeps with the fishes!"
Picard: "Doesn't surprise me. The man will sleep with just about anything that breathes."
For showing off how high strung some actors can be, our winner is...
![]()
Brent Spiner: That's for making me walk all the way into the water and then only using the stuntman shots!
For the best (if it could be called that) explanation why Gates McFadden wasn't really smiling in the following picture, our winner is...
![]()
FRAKES: "Oh, you didn't know? All of Gates' important scenes are going to end up on the cutting room floor! Isn't that just the funniest damn thing you've ever heard?"
I'm getting tired, so let's just reveal our next winner...
![]()
"Yeah, Bill snuck onto the set and tried on my uniform..."
...and our Photoshop winner, who surprisingly didn't start a "Who's hotter on Firefly?" debate...
![]()
PICARD: A shuttle? How'd you like your own starship?
