[Scene: deep space.  We zoom in on a Bird-of-Prey which floats at an extremely odd angle, looking as if it’s adrift in space.  A closer examinatino reveals the vessel to be Pegasus, seemingly powerless and dead in the water.
Cut to the bridge, where the only thing keeping out the vacuum of deep space seems to be the outer hull.  The bulkheads have completely collapsed, and all stations are completely buried in huge chunks of debris.
A spot in the center of the mess begins to shift.  A hand emerges and begins to claw its way around, seeking purchase.  Finding a stable spot in the pile, the hand braces and presses down on top of the mound.  We see an elbow, then a bicep, then the head of Lord Spatula I, King & Tyrant peeks through.  He gulps in air, then has a coughing fit.]
LSIK&T:  What the hell was  that???  Korrioth!!!  [He looks around the bridge as if seeing it for the first time.]  Uh…Korrioth?
[Near the science station, a mound of rubble begins to move.  Korrioth, the Klingon/Vulcan hybrid wrests himself free, throwing chunks of debris outward. His Rudeness™ shields himself from the onslaught.]
KORRIOTH:  I…(dusts himself off)…seem to be functional, Admiral.
LSIK&T:  Captain?  What just threw my ship around like a rag doll?
KORRIOTH:  Admiral, it appears to have been a random string element.  Sensors detected it just in time to allow automatic shields to snap to, else we’d be so much space dust by now.
LSIK&T:  Well, three cheers for the automatic shields.  (to intercom) Engineering!  McCool, are you still with us?
KORRIOTH (checking instrumentation):  Doubtful you’ll get a response, Admiral.  Systems are down all over the ship, including communications.  Life support appears to be functioning on emergency batteries.
LSIK&T:  Find whoever you can throughout the ship, take a detail and get to work restoring ship’s systems, beginning with life support.  I’ll start excavation operations up here.  Get moving.
KORRIOTH:  Aye, sir.
Denizens, the move is complete, and I’m digging out from all the boxes, computer equipment, various & sundry.  Soon as I get bearings, we’ll catch up on the PFW and various other shit (so now Queen Hilarious is supposedly a lesbo?  Well, that would explain Kaiser Wilhelm von Skirtchaser  ).
Stay tuned.
