This comic has done far worse than kill us. It hurt us... and it wishes to go on hurting us.
Link

(Linkara stands on the spaceship Comicron-1. He is communicating with Iron Liz via communicator)

Iron Liz: (on communicator) Oookay, get to engineering or you blow up the ship. I hope you plan on getting us off the ship before you do that.

Linkara: That was always the intention. Linkara out. (closes communicator and turns to Pollo) Pollo, see if you can remotely access the security controls.

Pollo: I will try.

(Linkara starts to feel uncomfortable and exhales)

Linkara: Pollo?

Pollo: Yes?

Linkara: This is probably not the best time, but... since we are stuck here and everything, do you ever... resent me?

Pollo: I do not understand the question.

Linkara: It's just... (sighs) Do you ever wonder if you'll end up like Mechakara? You know, hating humanity and hating me?

Pollo: No, I never wonder that. Do you?

Linkara: (sighs) Yeah. I do.

Pollo: I admit, that is not the answer I was expecting.

Linkara: I'm sorry, Pollo. It's just in my nature to worry about these things. Look, if you've ever felt that I've mistreated you or any other machines...

Pollo: You have not. You have given me a credible freedom. I can come and go as I please, and I am a paid producer for your show. In return, you have repaired me, offered up grace, and even volunteered to instruct for me a new hobby. I have been and always shall be your friend.

Linkara: Thank you.

Pollo: This will take some time. I suggest you continue your review while I work.

Linkara: Is there a camera here?

Pollo: There are cameras everywhere on this ship.

(Linkara looks around and then looks toward the camera)

Linkara: Oh. So, uh, where did we leave off on "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Comic"?

(Shots of the comic are shown)

Linkara (v/o): Khan, a genetically engineered tyrant from the past, is now in the future and has sworn vengeance on Admiral James T. Kirk for exiling him fifteen years in the past, thus granting him a dark future.

(Linkara holds up his index finger, about to make a point of something, but stops himself as he tries to figure out)

Linkara: ...Let me start over.

Linkara (v/o): Star Trek II is the story of Khan, a genetically engineered tyrant who wants revenge against Admiral Kirk for sentencing him to exile on a planet that quickly became a desert wasteland. Chance allowed him to take control of a Starfleet vessel, the Reliant, and now attempts to steal something called "The Genesis". Meanwhile, Admiral Kirk is starting to feel age get the best of him, especially now that he's supervising a group of trainees aboard the Enterprise. However, after learning that something is wrong with the scientists working on Genesis, he has assumed command of the ship and is now on his way to investigate.

Linkara: So let's dig into (holds up comic of review for today) "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan #2" and continue.

(AT4W title sequence plays, followed by title card, which has "Battle In the Mutara Nebula" from Star Trek II playing in the background)
