A strange encounter in a strange place

Stardate 41153.7, somewhere in a strange, parallel Universe. Biggles & Ginger Hebblethwaite are on patrol in their Mosquito fighter-bomber.

Ginger to Biggles: "Looks like this place was nuked! Over"
Biggles to Ginger: "Nuked? What's that? Over"
Ginger to Biggles: "American slang word. It means ... to overreact. Over and out."
