When I'm on a plane I still idly think about the possibility of there being a gremlin out there on the wing eating an engine...
(I fly a lot and even learned to fly gliders/sailplanes back in the day, so definitely not afraid of flying, but if I'm ever sat next to William Shatner I'm deplaning. No point taking chances. ;-).)
I have not seen this episode yet (it's in season 5, just checked).
Definitely looking forward to it!
We just watched the "Nick of time" episode not to long. Came as a surprise that Shatner was in there - it was kind of a culture shock for my son, suddenly seeing "Captain Kirk" as a superstitious groom in a 50s era dinner... :-)
