And here we see the inherent problem with firsthand witness accounts.
There’d definitely be a lot less whining on that ship.
Unfortunately, my starship crew is a tad moody.
Need I remind you? http://forum.galacticwatercooler.com/showpost.php?p=217882&postcount=34
I never understood why the security guys never carried handcuffs. All this leading people to the brig with their hands held behind their backs is just nonsense.
OMGs! Troi hit him with her iPad!! I would NEVER treat my iPad that way. Barbaric!!
Good point. I never noticed that before. Figures you’d have an eye for that though with your knowledge.
I’ve handled worse.
I thot Worf was going to haul off and kill him.
What Would James T Kirk Do?
Flirt with Troi. Ask Spock to do the Vulcan mind meld to find out what’s going on.
And then, dive roll and judo chop the mind rapist and then smack him in the face with his boot until the guy falls off the cliff into the volcanic chaos of the Genesis planet all the while yelling “I…have …HAD…enough of. YOU!!!”
(Hey, I never said I was original).
Security isn’t hanging around the replicators eating donuts all day either.
You really can’t expect total authenticity.
What does a rapist need with a starship?
I dunno, after that old fart Commodore Decker subdued his security detail and got away in a shuttlecraft I’d have thot 'cuffs would be SOP on all Starfleet ships.
Isn’t that what weapons with stun settings are for?
Commodore Decker was a pretty amazing hand to hand fighter in that scene—especially considering he supposedly was under mental duress for losing his whole crew.
Yeah, I guess it’s more dramatic if the bad guys can get loose for awhile, run around causing a ruckus, then get phasered into submission.
Indeed. One moment he’s a blubbering crybaby, the next he’s Jet Li on steroids.
Oh, and by the way (fan made Trek spoiler alert). Commodore Decker survives
I’m gonna have to check out New Voyages someday.
It’s pretty good. Sometimes …sometimes when you’re watching it you forget it’s not the real thing.
Okay, g’nite TrekTarts. Time to warp out of here.
Fun frakkin’ with you!
