Food for the Gods

[first line]

Sheenyana:
[voiceover] On the Equinox, they came. [Sheenyana witnesses the starship hovering over her village.] They came from the Heavens. Their Great Metal Bird filled the sky.

Lt. Richard O'Conner:
[Richard is collecting bio-samples from a riverbed; he radios back to camp] O'Conner here. Hey, Denise, how much more of this stuff do we need?

Dr. Denise Hanson:
Well, how much more NASA meatloaf do you want?

Lt. Richard O'Conner:
Roger that.

Sheenyana:
But only I saw the deadly snake on the tree.

Dr. Denise Hanson:
Wow. And you know her name.

Lt. Richard O'Conner:
She pointed to herself and said 'Sheenyana.'

Lt. Cmdr. Monroe Bellwood:
Maybe she just meant, 'Holy sh*t, aliens.'

Dr. Denise Hanson:
We are over four light-years from Earth, and she not only looks human, she is human.

Sheenyana:
[Sheenyana is looking at a far away mountain through Richard's high-tech binoculars.] Sheenyana...it means 'Sees Far.' Now I have seen farther than any of my people. Does that make me a god?

Lt. Richard O'Conner:
Only if your dagger makes you a god over an animal that you skin. It's a tool, Sheenyana. Nothing more.

Sheenyana:
[disturbed, Sheenyana turns and draws her dagger, staring at it.] My dagger does make me god over animal I skin. Why are you here?

Sheenyana:
They are not gods. Richard is a man.

Shogoto:
A man who can kill with a beam of light, and fly across Heaven as did the Bird Gods who seeded us.

Dr. Denise Hanson:
We cannot colonize this place. It'd be a crime.

Lt. Cmdr. Monroe Bellwood:
That's not our call, Doctor.

Lt. Richard O'Conner:
Isn't it? I mean, no one knows what's out here but us. Who else has to know?

Lt. Cmdr. Monroe Bellwood:
Our mission is to report our findings and we will complete our mission.

Sheenyana:
I will not serve the Food for the Gods to mortals!
