Title: Uhura Saves the Day with Grammar or:  Live Every Week like it’s Shark Week
Words: 790
Summary: It’s the planet of the sharks, and the universal translator still sucks. (Exactly what it says on the tin.)
Notes: for my cliche_bingo square rescue me: damsels (and others) in distress. In part because Shark Week, the fandom of my childhood, is on tv right now. (Also, it is my headcanon that Uhura thinks the universal translator was pushed into field testing at least five or six rounds of beta too soon.)
