caps! 80 YEARS OF CAPS!
mostly Spock, duh.
"Tell me how your planet Vulcan looks when the moon is full."
"Vulcan has no moon, Miss Uhura."
"I'm not surprised, Mr. Spock."
that poor dog.
evil kirk is evil. & slightly feminine.
oh, you.
kirk demands brandy.
I'M CAPTAIN KIRK
i wish uhura was my friend.
spock is unimpressed.
i love the concept of three dimensional chess.
every one in this episode is wearing a weird unflattering turtleneck for some reason.
and spock's eyebrows look like young!spock.
i'm not even going to say it.
right after robot!kirk calls spock a half-breed:
as the show progresses i think leonard nimoy becomes more and more adept at letting the viewer in on his
emotions subtly. it's all in the eyes and the way he holds his lips. they are barely detectable sometimes,
but in a perfect way.
of course it's possible, too, that i see what i want to see because i'm so fond of spock's inner turmoil.
they even made scotty wear a weird turtleneck. poor scotty.
CAPTAIN!
phone.
it's for you.
kirk being an action hero:
only william shatner can play off "roguish action hero" in a turtleneck.
silly space suit.
"I'll protect you, fair maiden!"
"Sorry, neither."
i like the parts where they all fall over.
scotty doing his thing.
"I can't change the laws of physics, captain."
spock's breakdown:
"My mother - I could never tell her I loved her. An earth woman. Living on a planet where love, emotion,
is in bad taste. I respected my father, our customs. I was ashamed of my earth blood. Jim. When I feel
friendship for you...I'm ashamed. Understand Jim. I've spent a whole lifetime learning to hide my feelings."
this is the face i make whenever spock does something that breaks my heart (it doesn't take much).
then i rewind and watch it again and again.
i feel like an emotional sadist for how much i love watching him cry.
/masochist because i'm a total empath.
guilty pleasure: watching spock perform a mind-meld.
young(er) spock.
all this bullshit is giving kirk a headache.
WHUT
is the only appropriate response.
kirk's shirts must be very poorly made because they are constantly tearing.
in which mccoy gets lucky.
everybody laughing at spock.
bones being a badass: "Well, either choke me or cut my throat, make up your mind."
KHAAAN
dressy uniformsss
"Sir, there is a multi-legged creature crawling on your shoulder."
*looks*
*neck pinch*
space spores...plant jizz.
don't piss off spock.
mccoy and his precious mint julep.
conspicuous ears.
"My friend is obviously Chinese. I see you've noticed the ears. They're actually easy to explain..."
"Perhaps the unfortunate accident I had as a child."
"The unfortunate accident he had as a child. He caught his head in a mechanical...rice picker.
But, fortunately, there was an American missionary living close by who was a, uh, skilled plastic surgeon in civilian life..."
FLANNEL AND JEANS AND OH MY GOODNESS.
spock hiding his ears.
crazy mccoy is crazy.
the first time we see klingons!
"Freeze right there Mr. Spock, or I'll put you to sleep for sure."
the end.
of season one.
