Six remarks from a four-year-old concerning an old episode of "Star Trek"

1. "Hey, daddy, those look like your little people!"  Meaning our action figures.  Don't pretend that you don't wish you had some of your own.
2. "Is that a good robot or a bad robot?" He's bad.
3. "Daddy, what's wrong with his... (gesturing to her eyebrows)?  Why do they do that?"  He's an alien named Spock.
4. "What happened to the red men? Where'd they go?" They were vaporized, as must eventually happen to all Starfleet security members in red shirts.
5. "So the alien is good and the robot is bad?"  Correct.
6. "That robot hurt the boy [Scotty] and the girl [Uhura], right?" Right.
