And a rubber band
a piece of string, a metal marble ball and an eyepatch is all we need

He better be bit more careful with that gun! Someone could get hurt!

Ensign’s log: star date - uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, cinco, seís - everyone gets a log but me, Chickov! Well I’m writing one. Who’s going to stop me, huh? Who?…
Perhaps we could just attack this Caw’n fellow bodily. We outnumber him after all: there are nearly four hundred crew members aboard.
Yes, but they’re never around when you need them. Besides, we’re all vulnerable to phaser fire and he isn’t. Even if we were to overcome him, even the loss of one life in such an attempt would be unacceptable - especially since one of those lives might be mine.
Maybe we could throw something at him.
Too risky, it might just knock him off balance; he’d still be able to fire his phaser.
No, what we need is something compact and portable that can take him by surprise and disable him before can draw his phaser - something that can launch some sort of projectile, perhaps a small, metal one, with explosive force.
