It's not always that good. If I could remember half the Star Trek
episodes I've dreamt I'd be quite rich. Assuming I could sell them

I like that! Perhaps this language lost the nominative pronouns
somehow, replacing them with the accusative (like what happened
in certain dialects with the nouns). Then the old emphatic form
gets reanalysed into the accusative.
Now just dream up the verbs and nouns!
