The Argument: Captain Tempest requests a mission report from the two new crew members picked up from La’Bohemia. They turn out to be Flowerboy and Gloria Jr. Flowerboy pulls out an acoustic guitar and proceeds to sing.
Flowerboy: We spotted the Plot Hole high above the planet
Why were we coming, so far away
And somebody told us that this is the place
Where time is distorted, and nothing is safe
All: Switch on the warp drive
Swoop through the sky
Space becomes fluid
Stars become lines
Flowerboy: Half and hour later we packed up our things
We said we’d send letters and all those little things
And they knew we were lying but they smiled just the same
It seemed they’d already forgotten we’d came
All: Switch on the warp drive
Swoop through the sky
Space becomes fluid
Stars become lines
Flowerboy: Now back on the starship
Where the air makes you choke
And people don’t know you
Their recall’s a joke
We don’t even have pictures
Just memories to hold
That grow sweeter each season
As we slowly grow old
All: Switch on the warp drive
Swoop through the sky
Space becomes fluid
Stars become lines
Switch on the warp drive
Swoop through the sky
Space becomes fluid
Stars become lines
Switch on the warp drive
Swoop through the sky
Space becomes fluid
Stars become lines
