I was just about to say, I did not recall her Romulan heritage ever coming up in the movie, learn something new every day.

I read the novel a few years after the movie, so forgive me if I misremember but no only did it go into Saavik's being half-Romulan, but also her interaction with Scotty's nephew - he was helping her with meditation to calm her impulses. This explained her reaction in the film upon seeing the nephew mortally injured after the attack.

I assume they live a very comfortable life, despite being a janitor. Strange though because why would you choose that job. Also at that point, surely there are robotic devices or other tech available to clean up.

*exchanges. Please stop putting apostrophes in plurals. It's very annoying, you were NEVER taught to do it, so why do it?

Yes.

They still have exits in the future.

@@alexbruce9499 No they don't. In the future nobody has the need to leave the space they're currently in. It just wouldn't make sense.

The Drumhead was a great story. I guess the issue was that the ensign was embarrassed and that he lied on his SF application. Obviously Saavik didn’t hide her genetics.

@@SnowDaulphin Yeah, it was the lying on his entrance exam that tripped him up. That and facing a "hanging judge", as they say.

@@SnowDaulphin Maybe, I just remember the admiral and her assistant remarking that he carried the blood of a enemy.

Tarses was enlisted, not an officer

I vaguely recall from the book that Spock found Saavik on an abandoned Romulan colony and sponsored her entry into Starfleet. Her heritage wasn't a secret as it was in Drumhead, although I think she was equally ashamed of it and struggled to come to terms with it.

Was that guy in Starfleet and on the 23rd Century version of KP duty or was he a civilian contractor assigned to clean the floors at Starfleet Command?

@@Torgo1001 I've had days like that as an enlisted man in the US Navy, just waiting for my boat to come back, for me to report to it.

Not enough time had passed. Also, how to get her out of Romulan territory to join Starfleet?

That would make Spock's pon farr on the Genesis planet pretty awkward. The male Vulcan seen with the older Saavik in OTOY's "Unification" is the son of Spock and Saavik.

Saavik was rescued from a romulan outpost that captured Vulcans for a plan to use them for sleeper agents. Using the children of cross breeds of both races to gain access to Vulcan society in a long gain plan to overtake their planet and attack the federation from within.

@@MagicAl5F4781 Fascinating.

No. That would only make her 14 years old.

I was born months after this movie debuted.

“Time is fire in which we burn🔥” Soran - Star Trek Generations

@@brendansheehy8124 ...What the fuck does that even mean, anyways!? _Generations_ is one of my _least_ favorite Classic Trek movies (even though I first saw it in the theater at the time).

Same!

Director’s Cut has it.

The director's cut doesn't include this.

Or the Sulu being given command orders after their training cruise

@@JB_HunkamunkaBut it does reveal the Peter Preston is Scotty’s nephew.

I believe he was director of Starfleet operations.

@@casey3cAdmiral Kirk was the Chief of Starfleet Operations until he took command of the refitted Enterprise from Captain Willard Decker because of an emergency years earlier.

probably not ignored just unwritten till they wrote it. Star Trek II simply established that Kirk too the test multiple times, and he beat the no win scenario by "cheating". It never really went into detail about the exact how, and manner on which he did this. The writer probably simply filled in the gaps. and various writers have told their version of how he did this, while keeping the same plot beats. In fact over the years , I think even in the 'Star Trek: Starfleet Academy' PC game, which has you as a cadet during the TWOK era, I think you literally have to do this to pass the Kobayashi Maru yourself. So this story of "Kirk beating the Kobayshi Maru" has been told in different variations over the years. So there probably is a version that goes exactly how you remember it.

I mean the line at 0:23 specifically, @@AgentExeider Was that in theatrical and director's cut? My memory could be incorrect that it was more than 3 in the story, OR figure the author disregarded or neglected this line. If I remembered it exactly, I could now tell you more detail, like the name of the Admin I kept mentioning. 🤓

This is from the Wikipedia summary of the book's plot... "Kirk explains how, as a young cadet, he spent countless nights studying ships and battles in a futile attempt to outthink the computer managing the scenario, until he finally realized that the only way to win was to "change the rules". On his third attempt, he alters the computer's programming so that the Klingon commander attacking him stands down upon learning that he is up against "Captain James T. Kirk". The Klingons agree to provide Kirk and his crew with an escort to save the stranded freighter. This stratagem impresses Kirk's superiors and becomes the first of the many famous acts of his career." It could be that the "countless nights studying" is the phrase that made you remember him taking it countless times, when actually that was just his personal studies and the book says he took the test itself three times.

@@alm2187 I don’t remember if it’s in the theatrical release, I always watch the director’s cut on blu ray. It’s definitely on the director’s cut.

I'm being shadow-censored. UA-cam mods that do shadow-censoring think they're smarter than me, but they aren't. Everyone out there, refresh the page after you post a comment. If it disappears for a few refreshes you too are being shadow-censored. YT is draconian in this way. Not to mention their mods are complete assholes.

@@ArasteeleI saw both your comments FWIW

I remember not understanding it as a kid. He dies at the end of the film, so what was with this joke at the beginning? Somehow I'd missed that he played dead in the simulator room. 😂

The guy cleaning the flior.🤣

Not yet.

Jerry was from Mississippi

Zell Miller from the Great State of Georgia!!!!

Amanda Prill I don’t know. I think it was a song made for the game.
