Riker asks, "back with another one of your conspiracy theories, Crewman Picard?" Picard says, "it is not a theory like evolution or the US Civil War! i have proof that Chief O'Brien is using the transporter to replace our biological poop with transgender poop so he can create false flag shootings! i doubt he's even Irish!!"
