"Let's look around on the guide for something." She starts guide surfing and finds what appear to be commercial-free movie channels. "Oh, that one channel is still playing Disney-Pixar movies," you say as you spot Wall-E, to be followed by Inside Out. "Have you seen either of those?" she asks. "Well, yes, but--" "Then we're watching something else." "But--" "You said we should find something neither of us has seen," she points out. "So we'll watch... Oh, Star Trek: Into Darkness. That's one of the remakes, right?" "No, they're more a reboot. I saw the first of these but not this one or even the one after this." "There's a third one?" "Of course. You didn't think they'd reboot such a well-known franchise and not want to do a triology, did you?" "I guess that makes sense," she says as she changes the channel to the movie. You two watch the film quietly as an entire Federation building is blown apart. An investigation begins, which of course involves James T. Kirk and Spock, but they seem to be splitting up under other superior officers. Either way, they're all at the round table meeting for this investigation into the man who orchestrated the terrorist attack. However, what Kirk notices that no one else does is a man not reacting to the explosions and destruction at all. A man reacting as if he knew it was meant to happen. And then, while Kirk is bringing this up and everyone is comprehending this, that very same man appears and opens fire on the meeting! It's chaos as the culprit's one-man aircraft shoots lasers all over the board room! Many top brass officers are killed, and the admiral who recruited Kirk in the first place is badly wounded. Spock gets him to safety but it doesn't matter, the wound is too bad and the admiral dies, but not before Spock uses Vulcan mind-melds and learns his final thoughts. As for Kirk, he works a way to use an emergency fire hose to clog the engine. The aircraft is about to go down when the pilot starts to teleport away, but he and Kirk lock eyes before he completely disappears. The Enterprise crew reunites with Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Uhura, etc. and they track the mystery man to Klingon. Per original Star Trek timeline, Klingons and the Federation were enemies in an intergalactic Cold War, so the Federation crew of the Enterprise going there is very risky. Even so, the Enterprise goes and sends down an exploratory team, consiting of Kirk, Spock, Uhura and "red shirts". They encounter Klingons, of course, and things break down as the Klingons do not trust the landing party. But before things get bad for the Enterprise crew members, someone ambushes the Klingons, things get chaotic again, and while the red shirts and all the Klingons in the area die, naturally Kirk, Spock and Uhura survive to find out that their savior is the man who just killed the Federation higher command. The crew takes the man into custody, and eventually learns that his identity is Khan Noonien Singh. "What?" you say. "Benedict Cumberbatch was playing Khan all along?" "Why's that important?" she asks. "Khan Noonien Singh was a very dangerous villain from the original Star Trek series. The irony is that this timeline knows nothing about that yet." --- ...
