*TAS* Caption Contest 003: Quality is Job One...of many...

[Maurice]

And now...

As RatBoy says, "Redshirts die, Redskirts kill." Y'all slayed me laughing this time around. Hard to pick winners, but I went with those that smacked my funnybone with the least mercy.

Here're the wins...

Mysterion nails the broads... so to speak...

And then the Dixie Chicks became really militant...

While Outpost4 boldly goes where we wish he hadn't...

Ensign Sickly: I reproduce asexually, too.

And the special meta-reference of the week award goes to Mistral...

Kirk: "Ensign! Why are you slouching like that?"

Ensign: "Sorry, sir, my backbone isn't scheduled to arrive until Tuesday."

Congrats to y'all! Now, will all redskirts kindly lower their weapons...

********************​

Quality control is important, and I'm stunned that not a one of you mentioned that our bevy of redskirted beauties were all wearing the Science Insignia on a red uniform. Maybe love is blind? Well, this time we'll see how much you're paying attention because...

THIS WEEK we salute Filmation Quality Control in all its glory with not two but THREE images of Quality as Job One...of many. What's wrong with these pictures? I count on you to tell me...and make it funny, or else the redskirts come back shooting!

McCoy's stint as captain on 'Captain-for-a-day'-day didn't work out too well.

Sulu: Why they thought a console with a cloaking device was a good idea is beyond me.

 

[Ryan Thomas Riddle]

McCoy: I know this isn't a good time, but does my uniform shirt look gold or green to you?

Kirk: Oh... these 3D glasses are something else. It's like I can reach out and touch Kang.

Sulu: Whoa, should never have injected myself with three drops of cordrizine... it's like I'm stuck in a split screen effect.

 

[Rat Boy]

McCoy: "Whoever threw those gold panties in my laundry is dead!"

Koloth: "Hmmmm, this is awkward."

Sulu: "I don't think we can blame this one on colorblindness."

 

[Ryan Thomas Riddle]

McCoy: Damnit, Spock, the universe's gone upside down and nothing makes sense anymore. I've got a gold shirt... you've got a unibrow...

...there's a damn oversized Klingon on the bridge...

...and Sulu's console is not right and he's gay...

Spock: Doctor, he has always been that.
McCoy: Oh. Well, everything else's gone hooey!

 

[Rat Boy]

Quality control is important, and I'm stunned that not a one of you mentioned that our bevy of redskirted beauties were all wearing the Science Insignia on a red uniform.

Oh, figures I only come up with this one now...

Freckles: "Our crests are up here!"

 

[MANT!]

Kang "There is no honor in a pink Uniform...unless you're Sulu..."

After complaining for years about the transporter scrambling people's molecules, McCoy finally got his point across when a transporter malfunction swapped his and Kirk's bodies.

Kang was an early participant in the officer exchange program.

Mr. Sulu forgot to relinquish his phaser when returning from a landing party, and accidentally discharged it when he sat down at his duty station, vaporizing most of his console.

 

[Rat Boy]

As you can see, my early attempts at Photoshopping left a lot to be desired. This was supposed to be a Grignak picture.

 

[Mysterion]

First off, I'd like to thank the Academy for the great honor bestowed upon me, and...what? New contest? What, again? Oh, all right! Here:

Kirk: Oh... these 3D glasses are something else. It's like I can reach out and touch Kang.

Sulu: I'll reach out and touch your.....ummm....Kang. Sir.

McCoy often donned the Captain's uniform after making him do nude jumping jacks.

Holy Warbird! Batman left his mark on this Klingon's chin!

 

[Rat Boy]

High definition in the 23rd Century. It's actually like the Klingon's in your living room!

 

[Ryan Thomas Riddle]

Spock: Another night in Mr. Sulu's cabin?
McCoy: How in blazes did you know?
Spock: You are wearing his tunic.
McCoy: Damnit for dressing in the dark!

 

[Mysterion]

Kirk: You're making a better door than a window, Koloth! Get out the way already!

 

[Rat Boy]

McCoy: "Note to self: never tell a 'Yo mama's so fat' joke to a Klingon."

 

[Ryan Thomas Riddle]

Klingon: I am the Wizard of the NZ... tremble in fear!!!

 

[Mistral]

The eerie "green shadow" effect haunted Kang most of his life.

 

[Mistral]

In the Mirror Universe, McCoy was captain of the ship, despite losing part of his leg in the infamous Pooky Bear War of 2265.

 

[Mistral]

Sulu and Wall-E served together on the Bridge for many years.

Sulu and Wall-E served together on the Bridge for many years.

Brilliant!
