It’s Jan­u­ary 2013, the techno music is over and so is mankind. Sail­ing through a cos­mic space now full of myr­i­ads of for­mer Earth ashes, Lord Bang­zorg, the captain-DJ of a klin­gon­ian space­ship which is in fact a mas­sive enter­tain­ment club for his race, is quite sad and angry even if the lines on his fore­head make him always look angry. He’s in the mid­dle of com­pil­ing a mix for the next party on the ship when every­body should go nuts because it’s Pres­i­dent Kling’s Birth­day but, oh k-boy,his mind is so dis­tracted, all his thoughts are going straight to the prison cell where the last human female, Tracy, is chained. Yes, folks,he’s in love with that alien and, fuck President’s Day, Bang­zorg wants to impress her with his mix which will be trans­mit­ted through all space speak­ers even in the prison cells. But all he knows is the tra­di­tional Klin­gon­ian club music which is mainly a suc­ces­sion of sounds like“bzrg”, “frgz”, “stgrz” and even “zgrg”. Sud­denly, a glimpse of hope appears in his eyes: an unknown furry ani­mal with incred­i­bly long ears was stolen from the Earth before its implo­sion and now he’s trapped in the sci­ence lab on the ship; attached to his neck, there is a round mag­netic thingy which, as their sci­en­tists say, is a record of annoy­ing human music sounds. Bang­zorg runs to the lab and find the curi­ous crea­ture on a cage, he’s stand­ing with a paw right over that record and looks straight to the klin­gon­ian. Bang­zorg says “Please” but it sound­ed­more like “Plzr”. Bang­zorg says “Please” and now it sounds bet­ter. The furry ani­mal finally lets it go and the klin­gon­ian takes the record on which he reads struck by a light­ning bolt: “Mix­tape for Tracy”. He looks to the ani­mal and sees a smile.
