We've been on this planet for a day talking with Gar. It's like been caught at a party with the one person nobody wants to speak to.
In that time, we have been telling him everything we know. Beverly has been going on about medicine, shoes and fishnets, Deanna has been talking about counseling and shopping, Geordi has mentioned his precious engines, and Worf has been reciting old Klingon stories.
I didn't have too much to talk about. After all, I've never being that good at small talk and general conversation.
What concerns me is that very soon, Gar will get bored of us; what will happen then. I know that once Geordi started mentioning the engines, it was a challenge to stay awake.
While Deanna tells Gar all the details of her latest shopping trip, Geordi pulls me aside.
"I think I know how we can get off the planet; the forcefield is noticably weaker then Gar listens to us. It's because he has to concentrate more. The Enterprise will have been watching, waiting for an opportunity. If we all talk at the same time, we might be able to beam up."
Geordi might be able to earn his pay this week.
Eventually, I tell the idea to all the others.
We all approach Gar.
"What do you think of the shops in Starfleet Headquarters, Deanna?" I say.
"Oh, they're absolutely gorgeous" she replies.
"I agree" says Beverly, "Especially 'Ferengi Fishnets'."
"'Kahless's Coats'" is a disgrace." says Worf, "They should not use the name of a revered Klingon."
"Spare Parts For Starships.' is a great place." adds Geordi, "Anything I want to keep the Enterprise going, I can find there."
Everybody chats away meaningless drivel at the same time; much like they do on a rest break in Ten Forward.
Gar is struggling to keep us with the constant chatter.
I know how he feels; it makes me sympathise a little with him!
The forcefield starts to weaken; Geordi sends a signal to the Enterprise and we are all beamed up.
Straight away, we post a warning beacon in orbit, saying, "Unless you want to chat meaninglessly to a Yeti for all eternity, avoid this planet."

One question, who is Gar??????
I have nothing witty to say, although I think maybe the crew might spend a little too much time at the Mall [I would check all those spare parts Geordi picks up there, especially to see if they have a warantee!].
I guess now you can go to the X-mas party. See you there! ;)

Too bad Wesley wasn't there ... so that he could get left behind. {{giggle}}
My goodness dear Captain, seems like since you were held hostage that your comments were possibly overrun by spamcomments. Hope that's not the case anyway. Glad to see you and the crew escaped from Gar in one piece and with no loss of life.
Captain, you've been spammed. I say you send Worf over to annilate the enemy.
Good to know Capt!
What does a Gar need with a starship?
Interstellar does have a point...strange your Counselor Troi didn't pick up on that...
Indigo, didn't you see Part One?
Nobody, you have strange wishes. I'm worried about getting spare parts from the mall as well.
Ciera, I agree about the parts. Are you asking for the first dance?
Jersey, I'll be taking a look.
Danius, it's Birmingham, England.
Free, Worf can set his spam phaser to 'kill' and disintegrate them.
Dddragon, what a great idea. It would have been too cruel for Gar, though.
Nic, with one fell swoop, the spam comments are vanquished!
Trinity, good to see you.
Jon, I get the comment; ggod sentence.
InterstellarLass, as you're so sympathetic, maybe I should drop you off there to chat to Gar for all eternity?
All very entertaining and more so due to the absence of that goddam Wesley. Thank Kahless you had the smarts to dump him in the Jeffries Tube on the old Enterprise D before it bit the dust. :)
That was a fun story. Ready for another jean-luc. Was Gar better or worse company than the rascal Harry Mudd reportedly was?
