"How's it flying now?"

"It's on autopilot."

"Well, how much damage was there?"

This was fun.

I wanted to draw everyone but it was kind of sad, after all, Matt's family is just his mother. So I just did Anna, Ed, Theo and Maggie. Matt, romantic as always, waited for Foggy to return from the office and surprised him with a proposal. Theo is like: finally! And throw rice!

Today in the Department of Before They Were Star Trek Stars, James Doohan guest stars in "Valley of the Shadow," episode 3 of the fourth season of The Twilight Zone (original air date January 17, 1963). This is one of those everyman-stumbles-into-a-small-town-with-a-dark-secret stories The Twilight Zone was so good at. Doohan plays one of the first villagers the hero meets.

The town's secret is that they possess advanced technology given to them by a stranger they believe to have been from another planet. They guard it from the outside world they're convinced would turn it into a weapon, and don't intend to let anyone who knows about it leave the village. Two of the devices function exactly like the transporters and replicators Doohan would spend decades pretending to use and repair.

Other Trek connections: Mr. Dorn, the town's mayor, is played by David Opatoshu, who would go on to play the leader of the Eminians in the Star Trek episode "A Taste of Armageddon."

Bonus: Baby Morgan Brittany and her awesome cat.
