"Widow Women what's that one about?" "Well over 500 years ago in 1698 24 fisherman were on a boat when storm perry hit Port Issac. The boat capsized and sank, taking all 24 fishermen down with it, not long after that the lifeguard station was created. It remained a station till the 1950's when it became the town pub named Widow women. 20 widows and 6 orphans were made that day, most families in the town have lived here for generations as the next nearest town is over a ten hour drive in all directions, even i'm descended from one of the fisherman that lost his life the skipper James Congdon. But the fishing ship had pirate treasure onboard so what happened to it remains a mystery there is a legend though. One widow went out to the washed up wreck as a last goodbye to her husband where she found the treasure, knowing she couldn't smuggle it into town she hid it within the caves under demon's rocks. After the tide went in she lost track of the treasure, probably belongs to the crown now but it's still a good ghost story," "How do you know this many stories?" "My grandad, he sits on the docks outside the pub everyday all weathers smoking his pipe telling the stories of the coast. I used to translate them for outsiders but locals could follow along swell. The kids love him as he's like an extra grandparent to them. If you're so curious about the area ask him Jeremiah Congdon. Speak of the devil I haven't seen my brother yet," she said standing up from the long grass, "You have a brother to?" "Yeah he's well i'm 23 he's 14 so yeah an nine year ages gap. You'd like him. He's a wild soul but loves fishing and has vowed never to leave our village," "Should we be getting back high tide is coming," "Yeah high tide is brutal this time of year that's why we never recommend swimming at high tide to tourists. They listen to the locals."

Pushing the boat out into the water Gweynneth began to show him how to work the sail on his own, it was funny to watch him slip and slide. He didn't have his sea legs, James noticed the smile on her face. It was so big and proud, her accent was definitely a lot thicker being back home. Quite a few locals noticed the good changes in Gweynneth, especially when she was around that James T Kirk. Her brother especially did. While setting the table for dinner he finally spat it out, "Your in love with your captain," "What no," he gave her a oh really look, "Fine yes and he loves me back but for heaven's sake you can't say anything," "Oooh Gills has got a boyfriend, Gills has got a boyfriend, Gills has got a boyfriend," he chanted just as her dad and James came in talking, "Jerry I will hit you," "I don't care Gills has got a boyfriend, Gills has got a boyfriend!" even with a hard slap he still was chanting the same thing over and over again. Her dad Mervyn looked like he was about to blow his top as he went to get the bat, "Dad don't go attack him I swear." James was extremely silent as he locked eyes with Gwen, Mervyn saw their look. He just had to figure it out, "You're dating my daughter?" "Dad chill he's a good man," she said standing between the two men, "I was just going to say good luck Gweynneth's a pistol," "Don't I know it," "Oh thanks a lot," "well before all this happened i'd invited James for dinner i hope he still accepts the offer," "I'm fine with it as long as Gwen doesn't cook, she can't cook to save her life," "I don't quite follow," "She started a fire in a microwave only people who can't cook can do that," "In my defense it was my first time using a microwave," "And i've got to keep the enterprise in one piece. You're an engineer, you should know what I mean," "Yeah scotty will kill me if i'm the reason we no longer have an Enterprise."

For the first time since leaving the enterprise the two actually discussed the enterprise and the coolant leak problem. Somehow they had to seal off the valve but you can only suit it from the inside and as soon as it's shut you can't get out so your stuck in a pool of engine runoff, "What if we used a robot that way it just dissolves in the runoff and we don't have to kill anyone." Gwen added, glancing across the table her family was definitely confused.
