Alternate reality
Kirk getting a fire hose at Starfleet HQ
A fire hose was a flexible conduit used to extinguish fires, primarily with water.
In 2259 of the alternate reality, Commander James T. Kirk grabbed a fire hose outside the Daystrom Conference Room at Starfleet Headquarters, wrapped it around his phaser rifle, and threw it at Jumpship 208, piloted by John Harrison. The hose and the rifle, as well as the cabinet housing the hose, were drawn into 208's exhaust manifold and the ship was destroyed. (Star Trek Into Darkness)
