going to die.”

Hobbit.”
On the Centurion’s

[Repeated]

about when the Enterprise is struck by the plasma torpedo:
“Entertaining!”

Romulans' appearance:

favorites.”
And
“Finnegan is behind
everything isn’t he?”
On Spock manipulating
the Captain into taking shore leave:
“HA!!!”
On Angela, the bride
from the previous episode fooling around with Estaban:
“That was a quick
rebound.”
[Embarrassing note-
Having watched these out of order most of my life,
I never noticed it was
the same actress before.]
On Kirk’s uptake as
things keep appearing:
“Didn’t he figure it out
yet?”

Ruth:
“Geeze!”
On how the stories we
watch and read differ from reality:

mean, he’s dead, but he’s fine.”

scene ending:
“Why is everyone
laughing at Spock, he’s way too awesome for that.”
On time in the Trek
universe:
“How do Star Dates work?
The numbers never make any sense episode to episode.”
On commissioner Farris,

When Boma first
confronts Spock
“I don’t like him.”
As the episode
progressed with Spock focusing more and more on the logical side:
“He’s right; Spock is
being kind of a butt.”

shot him down for being insubordinate to Spock.
“I don’t like him.”
On real time versus TV
time:
“Wow, the ten seconds to

On the bridge crew’s
reactions to Spock being gone:

like.”

history of protective gear:
“A planet with a deadly
atmosphere. I know, they’re sending them down in beach clothes.”

cameo:
“AAAAAAAAAAAHH!! Wait, did they have an extra one.”
Me- “No, they just put
the costume from the other episode in a case.”
“Oh, that makes more
sense.”
On the fleeting nature
of childhood memories:
“I don’t remember this
one.”

Trelane and calmly, if sharply, mouthing off to him the whole episode:

high tech guesses…until the duel set up]
“Oooh! Break the mirror!”

Yeoman in three episodes in a fancy dress. At least this one isn’t hideous.”

got a lot to learn about everything, haven’t you?”
“Ooooh! I get it.”
