The Second e-mail

Hi Vaughn and Tracy,
In anticipation of the "Wink of an Eye" episode, I've put together a picture of Tracy demonstrating sample gathering. You'll notice that she hasn't been disappeared at all. That's because she's followed the proper sample collecting procedures, and hasn't put any of the specimen in her mouth.
You'd think a reminder memo would have gone out after that "Joey" fellow met a particularly sweaty end in "The Naked Time." Just something to remind the crew not to get careless on away missions. "Remember If it's worth taking a sample of, or we give you a chicken-wire suit to wear, it's probably dangerous. It's up to you to not be the first person to die."
And as for Plato's Stepchildren. If there was ever an episode written to show off what the lead actor can do, it was this one. Nobody can scream like Kirk. William Shatner's screams makes Roger Daltrey sound like the buzzer in the "Operation" game.
