Their uniforms have a [[Lawyer-Friendly Cameo]] of ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'' 's Starfleet insignia on their uniforms, which also share the same color scheme. Squash inexplicably gains a hairstyle that makes him look like Spock. And, to top it all off, they travel in a spaceship that is basically a souped-up U.S.S. ''Enterprise'' (NCC-1701 model). {{reflist}} [[Category:Stock Parodies]] [[Category:Parody Tropes]] [[Category:~~Where No Parody Has Gone Before~~{{PAGENAME}}]] [[Category:Whole-Plot Reference]]
