T-Rex: Producers have decided that the next Star Trek will not contain any depiction of Muhammad.
T-Rex: IT'S A NON-PROPHET ENTERPRISE!
Dromiceiomimus: Interesting. Star Trek has already depicted Apollo and Quetzalcoatl. And that dude who claims to be God in Star Trek V.
Utahraptor: I think T-Rex was making a joke.
T-Rex: Is Star Trek nought but a joke to you?!
Utahraptor: Uh...
T-Rex: It shows us a vision of a shining future!
T-Rex: And that's just "Spock's Brain"!

Actually in that episode the entity is called Kukulkan, which is the Mayan name of the deity corresponding to the Aztec Quetzalcoatl.
