:16:01
And I held up the glass
and I said, "Who would be interested
in purchasing the Q virus?"

:16:05
And it was kind of a joke, but
the crowd just went absolutely crazy.

:16:10
They went bonkers for the thing.
So, you know, I went ahead
and auctioned off the glass,

:16:15
and it went for, I don't know,
40, $60 or something like this.

:16:19
And a guy bought it, and he
came up, and I said, "Look"--

:16:23
It was half-full
still of water--

:16:24
I said, "Look, you really
don't want to drink this.

:16:27
He's very sick. I mean,
he's very, very ill."

:16:29
"Oh, no, no. I want to drink it.
I want to drink it."

:16:32
And he just downed
the whole glass right there,

:16:34
And he yelled out, "I've got
the Q virus! I've got the Q virus!"

:16:38
And he planned to spread it
all over the world.

:16:41
You know, that was his thing.
:16:43
I was walking down the street
in New Y ork,

:16:45
and I caught somebody
coming towards me.

:16:47
He said, "are you Q?"
:16:51
And I said, "Y eah."
:16:52
"Can you bring people back
from the dead?"

:16:56
And I went,
"Uh...only people I like."

:17:00
And he goes, "Cool."
And walked on.

:17:04
There was a fan who,
in 1973 in New York,

:17:07
came up to Jimmy Doohan,
who I was with,

:17:09
and pulled out a box
that had a hypodermic in it

:17:13
and asked Jimmy if he could
get a sample of his blood.

:17:16
A woman...
:17:18
stood up in one
of the conventions and said,

:17:22
"What's it feel like
to be beamed?"

:17:26
20 years later, he was
at a convention in New Y ork,

:17:28
and the same young man
came up to him with the same box
with the same hypodermic

:17:32
and said, "Mr. Doohan,
can I get a sample of your blood?"

:17:35
He was still doing
the same thing 20 years later.

:17:38
Man: There's one gentleman
:17:39
who for about, what, 10 years?
:17:42
Second Man: Almost the whole run.
:17:44
Almost the whole run of since
the beginning of The Next Generation

:17:47
has been sending something
in the mail every day to Star Trek.

:17:52
Every day.
:17:54
The funny thing is, it has
nothing to do with Star Trek.

:17:57
He sends us travel brochures,
