"Son of a bitch," McCoy mutters, shaking his head. Hearing it from Spock of all people, he accepts that it's true, but it's sure as hell hard to believe it.

Uhura looks at Jim thoughtfully. "This explains a lot."

Jim shrugs a little. "I probably would've said something eventually, once I figured out how to get around the mandatory psych eval."
