0:50 Chekov grinning and shaking his head as he listened to Bones and Spock try to bullshit Kirk just makes me giggle with glee. You could tell he was think, "Wow, you guys are terrible liars."
I think this collection really shows something amazing - as much as Bones teases and ribs Spock about being Vulcan, I dont think it's ever half as mean as it comes across. Bones knows that Spock is half human and pushing away that humanity does him no good, so he calls him a "hobgoblin" or whatever else and pushes him to feel emotion not because he hates Vulcans but because he knows that Spock needs to accept his human half to be healthy (McCoy does have psychology training after all). It's clear here where emotions are being forced on him (which by everything Bones has ever said should be a dream come true for him) but instead he begs them to stop, because he knows that it needs to be Spock's decision. By the movies, Spock does accept his human half more and I think that's what Bones was pushing for along, plus he knows that it's the only approach that'll work on Spock (who enjoys arguing with Bones too)... just my 2 cents haha
I always thought that Spock and McCoy lied to Kirk about Kirk's last orders because they wanted to keep their argumentative relationship and they didn't want Kirk to know they could actually get along...
That was a great scene and so well played by all three. :) You can tell Kirk doesn't entirely believe what they're saying but he's not going to push his luck by demanding specifics.
They were gaslighting Kirk because Kirk plays at being the "peacekeeper" among them. I do like how McCoy realized that Spock can't lie well so he did almost all the verbalizing.
@@logiciansvlog5800 Spock is the best liar because he so artfully avoids appearing to be an outright liar. In other words, he is very careful with his words and picks and chooses when he's engaging in active deception, like he did with the Romulan commander.
You can see how McCoy gets nervous, maybe even embarassed when Kirk asks. He knows that his behaviour towards Spock would disappoint Kirk immensely, as it should, so he tenses up and resigns himself to what Spock will say. I think he was relieved and grateful when he realised Spock wasn't telling. And it was very gracious of Spock to lie about it...
I've personally always liked the friendship between Spock and McCoy more than these two with any other character. Spock by far has the best relationships with everyone from the original crew. However, there's something about these two that is just such a natural friendship. I think the reboot films misinterpreted their banter for arguing or animosity between them. Spock and McCoy spoke to each other this way because they were that comfortable with each other. I always got the impression they trusted one another more than any other character on the show.
The whole McCoy - Spock bickering was the brainchild of Gene Coon, sometimes known as Star Trek’s “forgotten Gene” to distinguish him from creator/producer Gene Roddenberry. Coon’s contributions to the show were very substantial, and he wrote somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 episodes, including “A Piece Of The Action” and “The Trouble With Tribbles”. Sadly, Coon died of cancer at the age of only 49 in the early 1970s.
Danzinora Switch A little trivial information to share with you. In this episode, The Empath, you will note the actress there is Kaythryn Hayes. Shd also played opposite of Lronard Nimoy in a Night Gallery episode called, She'll Be Good Company For You. And if your into Bonanza, she slso was in a episode called, The Wild One, there you will see her with long hair, and she was quite attractive to.
That episode was one of the last of the series, and it appeared when they were reportedly running out of money. It shows in the sets for this episode, as it appears that it takes place in some kind of empty gymnasium with curtains serving as the walls to separate the rooms!!
Actually, if you rewatch the part at 1:19, it's very subtle. Spock himself never actually never really lies. He provides unfinished sentences that seem to support what McCoy says and lets Kirk fill in the blanks. "Well, you see the crisis was upon us and then passed so quickly that we...."
@@khfan4life365 actually no. Bones said the lie and when Spock tried to build upon it, he didn't actually finish the sentence. He left it up to Kirk to make the assumption.
That bit from Plato's Stephchildren-when McCoy is talking about emotion and SPOCK is not chiding him, hell, even being accepting of his point, that is what you would call some serious shit.
You got a sense of how deep McCoy's affection and respect for Spock runs when he's pleading, begging practically for them to stop forcing Spock to laugh. McCoy couldn't stand to see Spock humiliated like that.
@@victorpradha9946 It was more than being upset about humiliation-it was actual MENTAL DAMAGE potential. Same thing happened in Enterprise, when Shran used a device to basically chemically shut down Soval's emotional suppression methods-turning him back into Matt Sikes :).
@@JnEricsonx Yes...he was responding to the medical issue/need as for Vulcans, emotional display, is demonstrative of neurocognitive damage/degeneration. Sarek's Bendii syndrome reflects how untempered emotional display is a sign of what we could call severe dementia! But the emotional force of McCoy's outrage, I took also to mean, he was keenly sensitive how deeply "painful" the situation is/was to Spock.
@@plls2880 Immediately prior to this scene, we see Bones inject Spock with a sleeping concoction from the 'hypo'. ... Spock, as commanding officer when Captain Kirk was not present, had decided that he himself was to go to the torture room, instead on McCoy (Bones). The aliens were allowing the three - Kirk, Spock, and McCoy - to decide among themselves who would go next... Yet Dr. McCoy circumvented this by the injection of sleeping medicine into both Kirk, and then Mr. Spock, so that he (McCoy) could choose himself as being the one to go.... I believe the aliens (and I forgot the name of the race) had formatted the situation thusly: "We need to do one more experiment. Dr. McCoy has an 87% chance of dying, and while Mr. Spock's life is not in question [if you choose him] he has a 93% of brain damage resulting in permanent insanity."
I fully agree with you doctor and when V Ger or actually it's name Voyager comes along McCoy will see a child in the form of a machine that will unfortunately have to deal with emotions.
0:27 on ... what a great job of tandem BS by McCoy and Spock, LOL. And I know Shatner often got slammed for his acting, but he did this scene perfectly.
This was part of the glue that made this such an excellent series. Deforest Kelly was the perfect fit as an experienced Hollywood actor. I remember him as one of the Earp Brothers in the Gun Fight at the Ok Corral.
This is brilliant! ❤️ THANK you SO much for putting all the time and effort in to the desire to share the willingness to give other people pleasure. Thank you so much. X
It's not so much the emotion angle. McCoy believed that because Spock suppressed his emotions, that he didn't care. Yet, here Spock is, at his potential deathbed, doing everything he can to ease his friend's pain.
1:01 has always disturbed me. Aren’t Vulcan’s incapable of lying? They make a big point of this in numerous episodes. No, Spock didn’t technically lie but he was intentionally deceptive.
I don't think he's trying to, at least not in these clips. If you're referring to when he holds McCoy's wrist with 2 fingers, I think it was just a gesture of support and comfort, the same as cradling McCoy's face
@@FilmerOfBobcats He's not addressing the guy in the blue shirt. He's addressing Sulu at the helm. The Asian guy in the blue shirt is just bringing Kirk something to sign.
This the Artistry destroyed by modern Star Trek...from the ridiculousness of the cost cutting that had Birds of Prey to suddenly become Battle Cruisers with 70 foot windows in STNG 'Yesterdays Enterprise' and the shortcuts of making all Klingon ships Puke green...to the indescribable Horrors of 'Disc of Rey' Trek....and now, 'Petard'....my How we have fallen. All because a hand full of Cocaine addled Soy *oys decided they knew better. RIP Star Trek...I remember You.
Well man, cool how yall throw shit on today's generation, when all u did was the exact same we're doing rn. It's not like the movie made sense b4, especially all the season 3 thing of vulcans having souls when back in season 1 they pulled out a fight on Sarek dying. They made it for money and u fans can't look up at the truth so u just blindly follow what other ppl say. Go on talking shit abt the new movies, it's not like I care, I ain't even seen 'em. But b4 talking of cost cutting, I'd get informed at least. Jeez man, for real tho.
“You’ve got a good beside manner Spock” such a sweet line. Deforest’s delivery was amazing
@Jerrol Hale It was Deforest Kelley's favorite too.
I always thought Spock was using a partial meld to try and help out
👑
"I'm gonna call her Gem."
"...Gem, Doctor?"
"Well, it's better than 'hey you'."
Classic!
That's what I told my father when I named my first Border Collie Gem.
For the longest time, I thought he named her "Jim"
he could have said she was like a jewel, fine and delicate or 💎.

I love how Bones' smile drops when Spock tells him he agrees.
listening to Leonard Nimoy laugh is fantastic.
mantra4ia No,it's fascinating
Is that David Rappaport sitting next to him?
They were showing "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins"
I didn't like it...made me feel uncomfortable
Vincent Price also had a laugh loud and from deep down..it was amazing.
That first scene, all I could think was
“Yep, that’s definitely orange juice.”
I think it's actually Tang, a very advertised beverage of that time. It was touted as being the favorite drink of the astronauts.
Tang (mixed with grapefruit juice) was also used for Balok's _tranya_ drink in "The Corbomite Maneuver."
the way Spock and Bones kep looing at each other regarding Jim's "last orders", i love it
I love how Bones uses "Vulcan" as, almost, a swear. Not as an insult. It's quaint and subtle but striking and obvious.
1:23 Never thought I'd see McCoy and Spock work together at trolling Kirk.

There's a memorial for him and many other underrated members of the cast and crew in Star Trek online
David Gerrold wrote "The Trouble With Tribbles", not Gene Coon.
Wow.... The Empath scene gets me every time
Yeah. I had already watched it today when I saw this.

Vulcans never lie … except when they do.
He didn't exactly lie. He just implied. 😊
He is half human
Vulcans never lie...according to Vulcans. Just saying.
Full Vulcans don’t, but Spock isn’t a full Vulcan
4:23 I like the way Spock shakes his head subtly. Best use of non-verbal language ever
Spock always says that Vulcans can not lie - yet this might be the first instance of him actually doing so
.... Seems Spock finds at least one use to his human half, eh?
I think Vulcans WOULD lie if it served a greater good, just LIKE religions!

Yes, I was just telling my friend, as we're watching!
But he lies to himself all the time
The exact definition of "Love-Hate Relationship". Goddamn you two, you bring a tear to my eye.
MCCOY AND SPOCK TRYING TO BAMBOOZLE KIRK.......LOL.....CLASSIC
Suspect that Spock enjoyed the ribbing as much as we did, his human side enjoyed busting Bones balls right back.
1:19 did i hear Spock.... LIE????
Best part is Jim saw right through it. 🤣
@@khfan4life365 actually no. Bones said the lie and when Spock tried to build upon it, he didn't actually finish the sentence. He left it up to Kirk to make the assumption.

That is a sweet moment between the two at 3:30. There were many moments like this in season three: the most 'humane' of the three seasons.
