Son of Baltar

First panel: Star Trek: The Next Generation-style title: “Porcine Elongation.” Captain Picard, pointing to a replicator: “You see, Ambassador, we have replicator technology which creates food and other items at the molecular level.” Second panel: Picard: “We can program your recipes into the computer so you don’t even have to cook. We no longer raise animals just for food.” Kanamit (from The Twilight Zone), holding a cookbook: “Amazing! This technology could end the conflict between our peoples.” Third panel: Kanamit: “This device can create human meat that tastes like the real thing?” Picard: “Some people claim they can discern a difference between replicated and natural food, but I think it’s mostly imagined. I must admit that sometimes I long for the days of my youth. My father would serve real meat that he had slow-cooked for hours. He refused such modern conveniences as replicators.” Fourth panel: Picard: “I haven’t eaten natural meat since my mother’s memorial service. I think you would have liked my mother, ambassador. She was delicious.”
