O’Brian beams back five corpses
“Oh… I‘ll just duplicate their latest copy from the buffer and integrate the memories from the dead ones’ brains.”
Picard: “Chief, your timing couldn’t have been more perfect. I was convinced I’d been shot.”
O’Brian: “Just doing my job, Sir.”
O’Brien saves the day. Again
So this is how the bridge crew returns from the dead!
O’Brien does look a little coalaish
I’m thinking you’re forced to climb the black mountain while you’re in the pattern buffer.
Seriously, dude has the power of life and death, he can literally resurrect anyone.
“I’m off-duty, sir.”
I don’t get this one. Or maybe I do and I just find it less funny than usual? Is the joke that he’s just messing around? I feel like in these comics he’s usually so excited to get to do something, this seems out of character.
He’s messing around so the one time he’s actually needed he misses it.
He’s so bored, he’s just playing.
But he’s been asked to actually do something for once!
He’s talking to himself
OH MY GOD. OK, thank you. I didn’t understand that. Much funnier now. And then he misses the actually request because he’s screwing around. It makes way more sense now lol
