1. “What do you mean, you’re late?” Malcolm asked Hoshi, aghast.
2. Trip was dazzled by the beauty of the ice caves.
3. She was in love. Logic was of no use now.
4. Jon stood behind the glass, wishing he could comfort them.
5. “Stun or kill?”
“I’ll leave that up to you, Major.”
6. “That’s it, no more pineapple cake with beer,” Malcolm groaned.
7. Phlox was stunned. He hadn’t really expected Mettus to respond.
8. As he began his journey, Mestral did not look back.
9. I’m trying to protect my people, Degra reminded himself daily.
10. “It’s a girl!” Liz cried with joy. Travis almost fainted.
This looked like fun, so I made a thread for it.
Here's my contribution (by way of PBS celebrating Julia Child's 100th birthday):
"Creme brulee!"
"So that's why Chef wanted a phase pistol."
Apparently, there are small, kitchen-sized, "girl-sized" blow torches available for just this use. My sister-in-law has one. I would have PAID to have gone to Bed, Bath and Beyond with my brother when he went looking for it! 
Reminds me of your story 'Switched'.
