[Hey community. Scotty's got himself a visitor. A not-too-terribly-wee Montgomery is busy fiddling with the PADD, frowning down at it. He has terrible taste in clothes and terrible haircut and he's supposed to be just starting at Glasgow.]
--so if I've got this straight, right, you're.... me. From the future. I mean I'm in the actual future. [He doesn't seem to notice that the PADD's video function has turned on.]
[Meanwhile, Scotty suppresses the urge to sigh.] Aye, you're in the actual future. Enjoy it while you can.
While I-- Oh. Hey. [Have a gawky Scottish teen peering into the camera at you, community.] What's this?
Long story.
...uh-huh. So, uh. Hey. I was wonderin' if y'could... y'know. Take me down t'the engine room? Give me a sneak peek?
Absolutely not.
But--
[This time he does sigh.] Lad, it's no' that I don't want to. It's just... [He pauses. How does he put this delicately?] Look, I remember bein' your age, alright? An' quite frankly, I was bit of an idiot, an' that's the last thing I need in my engine room.
Fine, fine. Whatever. [He mutters something in Gaelic. It's not very nice.]
I heard that!
[Please. Somebody. Save Scotty from his idiot of a younger self.]
