"Maje - dear, honey-bun ....
Lucy believes in the project, and she's managed to get us one more shot at a pilot. We've all got to scramble to make this second effort put us over the top, and we're already working on big changes to ensure success.
I apologize for putting so much stress on you in casting you for that cold Number One character. I know you're too sensitive and caring to want to be seen only as a hyper-cerebral ice queen and slave to logic. You could end up being type-cast as a robo-femme for the rest of your career. I'm sure you wouldn't want that.
That's why we're going to reconfigure the Spock character to be the coldly rational foil and let Nimoy worry about the long term type-casting.
Because we're operating in a rush we're going to drop the Number One character entirely, give you a rest during the second pilot's production, and brainstorm a different long-term role for you that'll be much more comfortable. Someone more caring; someone who acts from the heart instead of from an algorithm ...
It'll also give you a chance to experiment with that hairstyle change you've been wanting to try.
In the mean time, we know you'd like to stay involved with the project. We'd like you to provide the voice of the computer in the second pilot. Now, hear me out ... This would be easy work, and it will give you a long-term secondary role to supplement the great new character we'll be creating for you once the series is a "go." Multiple roles means you'll be racking up credits faster.
You know how tuned-in I am to the future. Trust me - there'll come a time when even big stars will make big money providing voices without having to deal with all the hassles of working in front of the camera. You'll be a trailblazer in a new form of acting.
Gotta run ... Too much to do ... I just wanted to let you know how much I'm thinking of you and your prospects as we work our way through this radical transition."
