Q’s Ex-Wife
PrevNode LinkNext[ Cut to the room with Q, Blanché, Jadzia, Kira, etc.
A woman who looks in her thirties enters - Avigayil. ]
Avigayil: Hi, Q, dear, I think you’d like to take a look at that. [She hands him a tablet]
Jadzia: “Dear”?
Avigayil: Oh, sorry for not introducing myself. I’m Avigayil, a good friend of Q. And his former wife.
Jadzia: [Surprised.] You were married to Q?
Avigayil: Yes, and also mothered two of his children. Story of my life.
Jadzia: Wow! Q, “The Invisible” has children?
Kira: Well, duh! The prophets spoke of several of The Invisible’s children and their whereabouts.
Jadzia: Major, you and I will need to talk someday about that “duh”.
[ Kira bursts into laughter. ]
Jadzia: Well, now that I’ve realised that nothing in this universe is holy… gossip, please!
Worf: Commander Dax, I explicitly prohibit you from asking about Mr. Q’s roles as a husband and a father.
Jadzia: You are right, Commander. I’ve realised something: throughout this whole trip through the wonders of the Q’s continuum I’ve been far too selfish and only thought about myself. I should have thought about you, too.
[ She turns towards Avigayil ]
Jadzia: Avigayil, could you, by any chance, allow us to meet Kahless the Unforgettable in his living dead self? I’m sure Commander Worf here would love to meet him.
Worf: Actually, Commander, I don’t think…
Jadzia: [Interrupting him] Oh, you don’t? That’s a shame. Well, I’ll go to meet him alone (always wanted to, you know). Worf, I think Kahless will be disappointed to not meet you, but I’ll tell him you’re a big fan of his, and I’ll let you watch the video of me meeting him and…
Worf: [Sighs] Commander Dax, you are impossible.
Worf: Fine, let’s go meet Kahless if that’s humanly possible.
Avigayil: Sounds good. The whole mission from Deep Space Nine can go with you, I’ll notify Kahless. He’s a big fan of a lot of you.
Amanda: OK, let’s summon Katie and her gang of no-goodnicks too. She wouldn’t want to miss it.
Quark: Yes, and it’s high time we merged the two sub-plots in the future movie. “Too much of a good thing is a bad thing. But only for your customers”. Rule of Acquisition No. 172.
