[the Enterprise senior staff are having a cocktail party in Captain Pike's quarters. They're drinking Orion Hurricanes for the first time. Also, this scene is done in the same animation style as "Star Trek: Lower Decks"]
Nurse Christine Chapel : Mm, what exactly have we been drinking for the last hour?
Dr. M'Benga : [mumbles] I don't know...
Lt. Erica Ortegas : Orion Hurricanes. Karas gave us a bottle of real Orion delaq, so they're genuine.
Captain Christopher Pike : Interesting flavor.
Una Chin-Riley : [examining her hand] Does anyone else feel strange?
Nyota Uhura : Why does everything feel so... two-dimensional?
Spock : [observing his left arm, which appears elongated and is whipping around like a snake] My arms don't normally do this.
Lt. Erica Ortegas : My eyes feel huge. Do my eyes look huge?
Una Chin-Riley , Captain Christopher Pike , Spock , Dr. M'Benga : [bending over to examine Ortegas's eyes] . Hmm...
Dr. M'Benga : What the hell is in these things?

Ensign Brad Boimler : Is that a classic TS122 tricorder?
Dr. M'Benga : It's a 120.
Ensign Brad Boimler : Do you mind if- Can I- Can I hold it?
[Dr. M'Benga hands him the tricorder]
Ensign Brad Boimler : Thank you so much! Oh, my God! They *never* improved on these. I mean, yeah they got smaller and more powerful and arguably less likely to explode. But, design-wise...
Dr. M'Benga : 'Explode' you said?
