Data was speachless for a millisecond, the said, stuttering,
'C-Captain?'
'Who are you and why do you look like Commander Datar?
Data winced. Any doubs he might have had about this being an imposter vanished.
Captain Picard *always* called him 'Datar'
'Because I am Data.'
Occums Razor, the simplest answer tends to be the right one.
'But he was destroyed in the explosion aboard the Scimtar!'
'In my view of events it was you who was destroyed.I was standing in the shuttle bay of the Enterprise whenthe explosion occured. I myself only boarded the Scimtar once.
'No'.
Oh no. The Captain was going into a denial trance.
'Yes'.
'No'.
'Yes'.
'I hate to break up this stimulating conversation but I have an errand to run and I'm already bored.'
The last sentance had been spoken by an ordinary looking man who had just materialized on the bridge in a flash of light.
'Alright Picard I'll fill in the opening remarks for you.
On the Enterprise, Picards facial expressions became a blur as he spoke on fast forward like a chipmunk on helium.
'AlrightQisthisyourdoing?Getthehellofmyship!DamnyouQ!Whydoyoualwaysbotherme?Urggggg!DanmDanmDamn! DAMN YOU Q!'
'Gooood!Now that we're re-aquainted I have an errand to run and I must be getting on with that.'
'What is the nature of your errand, Q?'
'To return you back were you belong, Tin-Man! You have done a marverous job of mucking up the continuum so I have to put it back. Starting with the first loose thread, Commandere Data!'
'Why can't anyone see I have four pips?!'
Q rolled his eyes towards the ceiling. He rather liked that particular trick of humanity.It was very useful for conveying a condescending attitude.
'I haven't got much time so I'll make the explanation short'.
'When Data detonated the the Scimtars Core he was not destroyed but rather he was mangled quite badly and fell through a hole in time, space, and dimension to wind up in another parallel universe where it was you,'motioning towards Picard and the others on the viewscreen,'who died heroiclly.Much of Datas memory files on this incident were fried so he now believes what was told to him.How he was thrown through bulokheads on the Enterprise, how he flew through space.Blah, Blah, Blah....'
'But that does not explain your mission,Q!'
'To take you back, dear Tin-Man. To take you back.'
