The starship Enterprise encountered an alien race... Kirk asks ""What is your method of reproduction?"" A pair of aliens, happy to oblige, touched their antennae together, and soon a bud formed on the side of one. It slowly grew into a small replica of the alien, then fell off and started running around the room. The aliens ask ""How do you reproduce?"", so Kirk grabs Uhura and proceeds to demonstrate. ""Where's the baby?"" the aliens ask. Kirk replies, ""Well, with any luck, it'll be along in about nine months or so."" ""Nine months!"" the alien exclaims. ""If it takes nine months, why were you in such a hurry at the end?""
