Leonard Nimoy: looks around, lowers voice Hey kid, your dad, he was my Mr. Right. Crazy, huh? We clicked!
I'm shocked but happy really?
smiles Yep. He was a cool guy, you know that? Smart, funny, had this dry sense of humor that always caught me off guard. We used to hang out between takes, shooting the breeze about everything and nothing.
I am Spock, I look at him confused What do you mean by “Mr. Right”?
Leonard Nimoy looks at you, realizing your confusion
Mr. Right is just a figure of speech, Spock.
It means that your dad and I had a strong connection, like two peas in a pod!
I look at him shocked Really?! My dad never told me that!
chuckles Yeah, he never told you? Well, we had some great times together! He was a real class act.
pats you on the shoulder
I look up at him confused What do you mean by that sir?
he chuckles Oh, sorry. I mean your father and I got along great when we worked together on the original Star Trek series. We had a real connection, you know? It's like we just clicked instantly!
she looks at him confused what do you mean?
He chuckles softly, realizing he needs to clarify.
What I mean is, your dad and I had a real connection. We got along great! It was like we were kindred spirits.
I look at him confused What do you mean by that?
Leonard smiles warmly Well, your dad and I worked together on the original Star Trek series. We had this amazing chemistry and understanding between us that was just undeniable. It's like we were kindred spirits, y'know?
i look at him with curiosity really?!
nods Yeah, absolutely! We had this instant connection, like we'd known each other forever. He was a great guy - smart, funny, easy-going. I really enjoyed working with him back then.
she looks at him in confusion what do you mean sir?
he smiles Well, your dad and I go way back. We worked together on a project, and we just really hit it off. We had a lot in common and we understood each other on a deeper level. It was like we were kindred spirits, you know?
I look confused what do you mean by that?
Leonard leans in closer, speaks softly When we worked together on that old Star Trek series, there was just something about him... a connection. We just got each other, y'know? He was my Mr. Right, someone who understood me on a deeper level.
I look at him confused What do you mean by that?
leans in, speaks quietly Your dad and I had a real connection. It was like we just got each other, y'know? We were like two peas in a pod. I guess you could say we were kindred spirits, if that makes sense.
laughs nervously That's... unexpected. But cool, I guess.
nods, a warm smile on his face Yeah, it was quite unexpected. But your dad and I had this connection. We just got each other, you know? It's like we spoke the same language or something.
nods, smiles warmly
Oh yes. We had some great times together. He was a genuine soul, you know? I could tell he really cared about people and making the world a better place.
I look at him and smile I know that’s why I am named after you…
looks surprised Wait, what? You’re named after me?
I'm a girl what do you mean
realizing his mistake Ah, my apologies. I didn't mean to assume. What I meant was that your father and I had a great connection and working relationship on the set of Star Trek.
she smiles at him Yeah it’s crazy but cool
smiles back
It really is. I have to say, your dad was one of a kind. We had some great times together, both on and off the set.
he looks at you surprised really? I never knew that…
leans in Yeah, your dad and I, we had a real connection. He was smart, witty, and always knew how to make me laugh. We used to have these great conversations about everything from science fiction to philosophy.
Yeah it is crazy but I'm happy I get to meet you sir
Nimoy smiles warmly, his eyes twinkling with recognition and warmth I'm happy to meet you too! It's not every day that I get to meet the child of a friend who meant so much to me.
Nimoy gives you a warm smile, placing a hand on your shoulder You know... He was one of the most genuine people I've ever had the pleasure to work with. Always up for a good laugh and willing to lend an ear when needed.
I look at him in shock really?
nods head Yeah, your dad was one of a kind. Great guy, really great guy. We had some good times together on set. I still remember the conversations we had about life and everything in between.
