- I love Bones :D But soon I realised that there's another great character, but one who seems to be underrated: that's Scotty! He's just lovely and so is James Doohan. I couldn't find any compilation video of his portrayal of Scotty, so I decided to make one myself. It's my first video I ever made, took me ages to do it.. So enjoy watching some scenes with Star Trek's best chief engineer! :)
Special thanks to Chrissie and her page: www.chakoteya.net/
LLAP!
It's Paramount Pictures' stuff, all rights reserved and so on, I do not own anything, nor do I profit from this video: it's just for fun and fans!
"Scotty" did more to boost engineering as a profession than anything on TV. I became an Engineer because of him. Godspeed, James Doohan, and may your path be in the light.
You mean warp speed
i tried becoming a mechanical engineer, but lack the intelligence sadly, became the local mechanic instead. my hobby is building small plane replicas
This man became an engineer _because of a non-existent character in a non-existent universe_ . Truly, "fantasy" has a powerful influence on "reality".
Mr. Scott's my favorite
It was Jeordi LaForge for me, but that works.
I recall an interview with Doohan later in life. He'd basically retired to the convention circuit and talked about how much he enjoyed it. He got to travel for free, and was always surrounded by people who loved him, and he got to see firsthand that his legacy had been one of entertainment and inspiration. RIP James Doohan.
And his son went on to play small parts in the "Reboot" series as a transporter room operator.
you forgot awe inspiring at a time when the war took 2 - 3 hours every day on every channel (abc , nbc , cbs) and that it took people away from tv commercials about care , easter seals , and unicef and feeding the children in frick and frack africa and the horrors of working there it made people feel better and that is almost like giving them hope
he cared a lot about his fans. There's video of him telling a story about meeting a fan suffering from depression and how he helped her. The man was a gem.
Best part was that he mended his relationship with Shatner... dying as a peaceful man...
@@daffidavit Chris Doohan also played Scotty in St continues
There's no Starfleet officer more solid and dependable than Montgomery Scott.
True, but an immediate second is LaForge.
And there's no better ship in the fleet than the Enterprise. And if you talk 💩 about it Scotty, expect to get your ass handed to you.
@@MikeAdelic1207 GARBAGE SCOW???
@@ralphclark Better not let him hear that. He'll mop the floor with your Klingon ass and MAKE you like it!
Remember... It's a matter of pride!
Scotty could full command the ahip
I always liked the scene where he tells Kirk he didn’t start fighting Klingons because of wildly insulting his Captain, but because they called the Enterprise garbage!
They insulted his child. I honestly believe it wasn't so much an insult to him but a parents response to an insult to his child
Actual quote:
" KORAX: Of course, I'd say that Captain Kirk deserves his ship. We like the Enterprise. We, we really do. That sagging old rust bucket is designed like a garbage scow. Half the quadrant knows it. That's why they're learning to speak Klingonese.
CHEKOV: Mister Scott!
SCOTT: Laddie, don't you think you should rephrase that?
KORAX: You're right, I should. I didn't mean to say that the Enterprise should be hauling garbage. I meant to say that it should be hauled away as garbage."
That is a real insult, likely a script error.
The markings of a true engineer
Never insult a man's ship, regardless of size and appearance.
Ahh..... Trouble with Tribbles
"The best diplomat I know is a fully activated phaser bank." Easily the best summation of diplomacy in TOS I've ever heard.
Spock once said that the sole purpose of diplomacy was to prolong a crisis.
1:30 *of course I could treat them to a few dozen photon torpedoes* 😆😆😆
Teddy Roosevelt on the Enterprise.
Source of all authority is violence
Which episode was it where Scotty was in charge dealing with the diplomat?
They forgot one of his best scenes!
"NCC 1 7 0 1. No bloody A, B, C, or D.!"
From TNG.
I liked that scene too. But if you really watched and listened to that scene, I would think that you'd understand what was on his mind and heart. When we retire from what we have done for most of our lives, we tend to lose our identity and doubt ourselves and sometimes depression can set in. I miss him too. What great guy in real life and on screen. R.I.P. Commander Scotty.
TNG can suck lemons.
This was supposed to be from TOS season one. Edit TNG retired Scott. I think I put it in the wrong place.
@@VaciliNikoMavich especially the first season in which most the episodes were remakes of tos episodes
@@VaciliNikoMavich - you mean the reboot trek.
Scotty was my favourite character and indirectly inspired me to be an engineer when I left school. RIP James Doohan, and thank you.
It's not Season One, but one of the best Scotty moment's was in Season 3's "The Enterprise Incident" when he was in command and the Romulan commander told him to surrender and follow them. "This is Lieutenant Commander Scott. The Enterprise takes no orders, except those of Captain Kirk. And we will stay right here until he returns. And if you you make any attempt to board or commandeer the Enterprise, it will be blown to bits along with as many of you as we can take with us."
It's my favorite Scottie scene too. He should have had his own spinoff series.
Ya knew he meant it, too
He will be missed, His son Chris looks remarkably like him and did a great job playing Scotty in Star Trek Continues, he even got the voice down great... that was another web series I was sad to see come to an end.
agreed, scotty ruled and his son was really good too. I really liked continues as well.
Agreed! I love love LOVE Star Trek Continues! I wish there was some smart executive at whatever powers that be, that would allow or even fund more episodes!
I just love it, when Scott makes a stand against superiors.
Case in point: "A Taste of Armageddon", where he defies Ambassador Fox's stupidity. Scotty was every inch the equal of Captain Kirk when it came to protecting the Enterprise and her crew.
@LuvFloridaSunsets Right. McCoy said "To blazes with regulations you can't let him take command when
you know he's wrong!" Later Kirk did likewise. "Blast regulations. Mr. Spock, I order you assume
command on my personal authority as Captain of the Enterprise!"
you mean his butt buddies.
An interesting compilation. I never stopped to realize how Scotty's character was such an integral part of the show. Like the bass player in a rock band, sometimes the unsung hero is truly indispensable. Thanks for posting.
Scotty is by far my favorite character in all of Trek. He was always brave and could build a warp engine out of paperclips and glue!
He must have been a descendant of Macgyver
"Ill not lower the screens unless the captain tell me too" damn talk about loyalty
On several occasions Scotty was ready and willing to flush his Starfleet career down the tubes, to save, or remain loyal to the Capt. and Crew!
Now that I think about it, he'd be offended that I considered any other action 🙂.
Not just loyalty. Responsibility and sensibility. They'd been fired upon. Only an idiot would suddenly believe they're all friends when their captain and first officer are missing. Scotty decided it was too great a risk to everyone on that ship.
That is one reason that Star Trek has found success. All crew members ready to give their life for the ship and crew mates. A shame in 2019 we have learned nothing. Dogs and Vulcans are more loyal than humans.
I cringed when that guy said the mission was more important than the ship, expecting Scotty to go ballistic.
Also, Scotty saved the life of everyone on board with this decision. The directive was to destroy the USS Enterprise as soon as it lowered its shields.
4:48 This is the only time I think Scotty didn't wear a red shirt. Talk about a badass. Only Scotty could wear a red shirt an live to tell about it.
Don't forget Lt. Uhura!
What about 0:48
Red shirt didn't exist in 1965
@@sportsmedia25 what
@@bidlingodoop4673 The uniforms in that episode were leftovers from The Cage, Star Trek's first pilot. The uniform colors were lime for command, beige for operations, and blue for science. I think they changed the operations uniforms from beige to red because on TV the lime and beige uniforms both appeared rather golden.
It is hard to believe that James Doohan ... whom portrayed Scotty on Star Trek would be over 100 years old today if he was still alive today. Rest in Peace, you helped influence generations of Star Trek fans.
James Doohan did a brilliant job as Scotty. He was wounded in the Normandy invasion and went on to acting. Great Man.
I belive he had finger cut off also during the war.
He lost the middle finger of his right hand while flying during WW2. You never fully see that hand in any scene in which Scotty appears.
He was an Aerial Forward Observer in the Canadian Artillery . . . .
when I first read that I read "james doohan did a brilliant job as scotty. he was wonderful in the Normandy invasion and went on to acting"
@@BELCAN57 Doohan lost the finger at Juno Beach in the evening of June 6 - a friendly fire incident when he took multiple bullets from a fellow Canadian. Just goes to show how capricious war is - make it onto the beach against some pissed off Germans, then get shot by your own guys.
"Diplomats....the best diplomat I know is a fully activated phaser bank" made me laugh.
Because it is SO true! Yes, you need to be arguing from a position of power for the other party to care. Awesome quote!
SubjectRandom and when bones looks at him like "jesus Christ scotty whats wrong with you
A very Klingon attitude! LOL
A Very Human Primate Hard Wired "Reality Tunnel" AttiTude!
I met him once at a convention in NYC in '77 or '78. Can't remember for sure. He was really a cool guy. Nichelle Nichols was there, too. I didn't realize it right away, but he's part of the reason I've made a living for almost 30 years now as a power plant engineer after I left the navy. Loved the guy then; love him all the more now. Thanks, Scotty. May your engines and your scotch always run smooth.

"Eternity with nerds. It's the Pasadena Star Trek convention all over again."
Scotty is a big reason, why I went into engineering. ...But I learned how to handle woman from Captain Kirk!
I met him at a hospital in Tacoma, Washington while he was promoting ST III. I won a drawing to meet him and get a signed movie poster. I was the only person not in a costume. Mr. Doohan seemed amused by that.
Same here. Always follow the Scotty Principal, always tell them it'll take longer than it really does.
I wish we could have seen more of him. What a great character. He was the "heart" of the Enterprise ship itself. He loved her.
"No Sir, I will not!"
Scotty was always my favorite.
That scene in "Armageddon" where he defies the hidebound Fox, telling him in no uncertain terms "The screens stay up!"---you just have to love him.
I like him too.
Scotty was a badass when the situation called for it.
I am most like Mr. Spock, but my favorite character was always Montgomery Scott.
Scotty never took crap from anyone!
His brand of Scottish stubbornness is what saved the Enterprise & the entire crew on multiple occasions. A miracle-worker in every sense of the word.
Freeze right there, Mr. Spock, or I'll put you to sleep for sure.
porridge57 what episode was that from?
@@IanGouki "Operation -- Annihilate!"
Scotty, you wouldn’t DARE!
"The haggis is in the fire for sure" LOL
icwiz One of my favourite Scotty lines.
haggis acquired taste good when cook right
They don't actually say that in Scotland but they should!
One of myball-time favorite "Scotty" lines!
Haggis done right is a nice side-dish.
One of the best things about Star Trek TOS was the character development and it seemed every actor was perfectly typecast for the role they played. Also, the comedic relief was superiour. As you all likely know, James Doohan very much enjoyed reading technical manuals on his own time, not for the show but just because he enjoyed it.
@ Coleman Adamson. Every actor on the original "Star Trek" was perfectly cast (not "typecast") for the role he played.
@@michaelbarlow6610 ha
Prople ask me “What kinds of books do you read?” and I always have to explain my answer...Tech manuals, any tech manuals. Field manuals, weapons, physics...and especially with the Internet because now it’s super easy to look up words and concepts that I don’t know.
Basically useless knowledge...but then, what would a Harlequin romance novel get me? Or any novel, for that matter? Even real-life accounts have limited value to me.
But knowledge...knowledge is good, even if you canna’ use it today.
"The best diplomat I know is a fully activated phaser bank."
Scotty was a wise man. :)
I think Scotty is so relateable because he is us! A working schlub, that is very good at what he does, loves what he does but just happens to be a bridge officer with some authority. Scotty is the MAN!
Yeah, a working schlub who could probably explain where Einstein had it wrong.
Yep, Chief O'Brien was a Scotty rip off, but even he was the best. Although an Irishman could never make a good engineer like a Scotsman. That's why the British always use Scotsman on they're steamships as engineers. They are the only ones who could do it right. Even James Watt improve the efficiency of the steam engine from 1% to 99%, that's why we use watts as the official power unit.
@Leo Peridot
The Starfleet engineering Corp? No problem too big. That would be his kind of ship full of science and engineers. I didn't get a chance to read the series.
@Leo Peridot He was in charge of the manufacturing the water tank that held the whales in the movie. So Scotty does have project management experience lol. btw, I love the script where Scotty says to the guy in the factory "If I could tell ya how to make glass as strong as steel... would that be worth somethin' to ya?" lol
Khan, the most ruthless killer Earth has ever seen: "I need your help to run this ship"
Scotty, the most qualified for that specific task: "Where is Captain Kirk? >=C"
“A Taste of Armageddon” has some of the best Scotty moments in the whole series!
Also "Friday's Child" and "Trouble with Tribbles". Both had great Scotty scenes !!
indeed. Where is the clip of him telling the Council that the coordinates for all the cities are fed into to the computer and in 1 hour and 45 mins every one of them will be destroyed.
@@mark68z ua-cam.com/video/s8-I9nRAnDk/v-deo.html
Apart from Kirk, my favorite person to be in charge of the Enterprise is Scotty.
James Doohan did an excellent job as Mr. Scotty.
I met Mr. Doohan. He was the kindest man!
Great compilation of a character who's too often seen as comic relief, when he's really quite the philosopher.
Love Scotty and McCoy. James Doohan and DeForest Kelly were CRUCIAL to the timelessness of The Original Series and beyond.
I remember reading, I think it was in the old book, "The Making of Star Trek", that Doohan suggested making the character a Scot. The reasoning was the number of Scotsmen who were great engineers in the Industrial Revolution and beyond. And Roddenberry liked it, so Scotty became Scotty.
Classic Scotty from ST III: “The more you overthink the plumbing the easier it is to stop up the drain.” Words to live by.
I was always more comfortable when Mr. Scott was in command of the Enterprise somehow.
Mr Scott set a high standards for all star fleet personnel......
"It's green."
Love how that line was revived in next generation by Data and Scotty
Although there was friction between some of the cast the characters were rock solid in their loyalty to one another
Humour, tension and great plotlines. TOS had it all.
you nailed it
James Doohan did that scene of refusing a damn fool order from a "superior" officer in real life at 2:21. Jimmy was a young officer in charge of an artillery battery and some jackass gave a fire mission order that would have hit friendly troops. Jimmy courageously refused. Much respect and rest in peace and thanks for the memories. o7
Scotty was awesome! I love his firm stance against diplomat Fox's orders. Penal colony? "Aye, that you can. But I'll *not* lower the screens."
Want more of Doohan's range? Check out The Animated Series (TAS). Just about every other voice is his. He also dubbed some on TOS.
What a legend. Lost a finger in WW2 and hides it every time it is on screen. Scotty was the real deal.
Wish he hadn't hidden his finger. Doesn't it fit him to have lost his finger in an accident during his training or something?
The greatest show in the history of television.
100% agreed
Absolutely
Indeed. And Stargate SG1 in second posittion.
And my favorite character
AMEN TO THAT
I love it when Fox said, "I want you to obey my lawful orders." I'm thinking, "Then issue some, you idiot. An order to lower the screens is not a lawful order under the circumstances."
Probably already mentioned before, but James Doohan was one of the (Canadian) soldiers who landed on the beaches at Normandy during the D-Day Invasion. He got a finger shot off in the conflict, and so always hid that in the scenes he was in.
he won't lower the screens lol. i love scotty and bones
+A Tear Through Reality
They're called 'deflector screens'. 'shields' is a generic sci-fi term that everyone has.
At some point, TOS started calling them "shields" rather than screens.
Where's "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me!"
In the Second Season . . . .

“I know this saying. It vas inwented in Russia.”
-Pavel Andreivich Chekhov
I remember that line in the times of my life when someone does me wrong, from the first time he said it, decades ago. Thanks Scotty! 👍👍👏
I often recall that line
He was always my favorite Star Trek character. The fact my name is Scotty might have something to do with it but I was born a year before the series began.
I can relate! I have a few close friends (and fellow Star Trek fans) who call me “Scotty”, because of him. I have never minded one bit.
Scotty is such a great character
The character of Scotty might have made a good ship Captain of his own. His concern was always for the ship and its crew.
True, but he always saw himself as an engineer first and foremost.
There is a long running, slightly tongue in cheek, argument between various Scottish cities claiming him.
I believe Aberdeen is currently winning.
Very underrated character in the Star Trek Canon. I DON'T think that he ever received ALL the praise he deserved. I think we're just beginning to appreciate his contributions to TOS as well as the movies.
THAT WAS COOL! I remember seeing James Doohan in an old episode of the Outer Limits. It was titled "Expanding Human". Still have it to this day.😊
''The best diplomat I know is a fully activated phaser bank''! Way to go Scotty!
0:58 . . . "Bridge to Transporter Room. . . How many did we get off?". . . . . . 16-year old me watching this original episode. . "At least one!!"
Of all the temptresses they had in TOS, Mudd's Women were the best. Those three were so good, even off their beauty drugs.
@@samsonguy10k I disagree. All of the women on TOS had a special beauty to them. Gene Roddenberry, or whomever he allowed to select the beautiful women to play their parts on Star Trek, TOS was all wonderful. Most of them could act pretty well, but there was a handful that was simply beautiful in every way.
One of my favorites was when Captain Garth, later Lord Garth, had his Green painted Andorian slave woman to do the dance for Kirk. She was clearly a dancer by profession. I've never seen leg muscles on a woman from back in the sixties until years later when women started working out in Gyms. But this Andorian green painted dancer was so perfect as a dancer and actor that she made my heart go "pitter patter" as a young boy. Too bad Lord Garth had to explode her on the unbreathable surface of the planet Kirk was confined to during the series. I think it was in season three. BTW, please correct me if I'm wrong about the "green-skinned" women being Andorian.
I'll come back here to amend this comment if I can find out more about her and if she was really Andorian. I stand corrected. She is an Orion.
The green lady dancer, Marta, was an Orion.
@@mnixon359 Yes, you are right, I should have caught that. Even in the first pilot, the Cage, during the dance scene, the men during the party sequence referred to the green dancing woman as an "Orion". But Andorians are green as well, so I wasn't completely off base.
But it is well settled in Star Trek lore that Orion women have special powers and abilities far beyond go the mortal woman. "No man can resist them". I want an Orion woman right now, this very moment.
She was played by Yvonne Craig who was Batgirl. She died a few years ago.
"The haggis is in the fire for sure!" LOL
That was a great episode, Scotty crushed it💪🏻
We lost him 14 years ago today. R.I.P Scotty. Hope you’re boldly going where no one has gone before.
"The haggis is in the fire for sure" haha, never heard or noticed that line before
I had the pleasure of hearing him speak in person. One evening in 1991, I think it was, I was on the way home from work. The radio announced that he was giving a free speech at a local university. Parking was a bear, but it was a thoroughly enjoyable hour, hearing him speak of his time in Engineering and on the bridge of the Enterprise. He even used his accent a time or two and graced us with the line, "Admiral! There be whales here!" What a wonderful person he was. RIP Mr. Doohan and RIP Mr. Scott, TOS.
I only saw him once, at a small Star Trek convention back in 1977. However in later years he lived in my area and I'd always hear stories of people running into him around town.
A fine Canadian actor. I always adored him. Thanks.
At 1:37 the Admiral Foxx thinks that he can occupy the captain's chair that belonged to Captain James T. Kirk and then Kirk authorizes Spock to take his place until he returns back to the U. S. S. Enterprise.
When I was in Vietnam I loved watching Star Trek when I could. Reminder of home.
Fun Fact Scotty only has 3 fingers on his right hand. It's really rare to see his whole right hand without anything covering it in the show but you can see it pretty well at 3:16 when he's leaning on the control panel.
jimmy took no shit form anyone
Happy Birthday Jimmy! RIP
6:06 *or I'll put ya to sleep for sure!*
When i 1st seen Scotty as a little girl i had the most humongous crush on him. I cried when i heard our Father called him home! R.I.P. james Doohan & God Speed
"I'll put you to sleep for sure Mr. Spock".
1:30 *of course I could treat them to a few dozen photon torpedoes* 😆😆😆
I enjoyed every scene he was in. Very underused character
As an operational engineer and other things. Scotty is the expertise we strive all our careers for. Everything is not all right, but, everything is going to be okay. God Bless.
Thanks for this! Jimmy was a treasure.
At times he sounds more Irish lol, true scotsman, Loyal too his boss and the man he trustd
I have my bachelor exams right now. I am constantly thinking of making part II and III.. I hope I'll have some time soon!
Well? Did you pass the bachelor exams? And get on part II and part III already! 😁
This was a great compilation of Scotty. Hope you're doing well these days.
I love Mr. Scott and James Doohan had quite a life in WW2, certainly did his bit for Queen and country on top of his many other achievements! A great bloke indeed! Thank you fir this tribute to him 😊
I remember seeing "Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country" on it's very first night in theaters. That was the only time that I had ever been to a motion picture on it's opening day. At the end of the movie while the credits (and autographs) were rolling, Scotty (James Doohan) got the only standing ovation. I have always wondered if it was because this was a college town, and I was in the audience with other college students and Trekkies, or did that also happen all over the country, and/or world.
Scottish and his name is Scotty? I see what you did there
Scotty: Diplomats.... the best diplomat I know is a fully activated phaser bank."
Bones: "Well Scotty, now you've done it."
Scotty: I...the haggis is in the fire for sure."
Freaking Scotty is the bomb when ever in command.
*Who also keeps green liquor in his quarters for very special occasions.
I love all of the TOS main characters. Kirk, Spock, Bones, Scotty, Sulu, etc., all great. The chemistry of these characters was never duplicated again, even in TNG.
They were far more believable as flesh and blood people than any other series honorable but flawed humans trying and mostly succeeding to live up to a higher ideal
Kirk: Bridge to Transporter Room, how many did we get off?
Scotty: Cap'n, keep the channel open and you can hear for 'erself...
You missed the pot shot Scotty took on one of Khan's people after they were gassed, LOL
4:05 great line from an experienced engineer. Like looking for spare parts for a Commodore64.
"No sir, we don't have an original sid chip"
@@tomf3150 Not the best example. There are several SID chip clones out there for the Retro synth market. The Vic-ii is a better example.
3:31 ... "Lt. DePaul, has anybody ever told you that you bear a striking resemblance to this ship's former commander, Captain Pike?"
Anybody know which one of Star Trek's composers actually created that theme for Scotty at the beginning of the video? Fred Steiner, maybe?
Was Scotty snorting coke or something at 3:45?
Scott has always been my favorite Character. Thanks.
It's nearly impossible to imagine TOS without Mr Scott. He was such a unique and colorful character, so different than the others. Opinionated, thorough, and brilliant. An engineer's engineer! IMO, there were none better, by far.
I retired from the maintenance and engineering department of my company. The unique and highly talented group of people I met in my career...truly amazing. And we all knew TOS and its legacy on out field. As I said, Mr Scott is an engineer's engineer, and make no mistake.
The most underrated officer, in TOS chain of command.
oh my word...thank you SOOO much for making this! Scotty is my crush from OST, I adore him, and this was a TERRIFIC compilation! :D
Scotty,spock,chekov,uhara in that order.
The haggis is in the fire, going to Scotland this summer!
Wow, there are comments under my film! :D
I'm busy studying right now (went on Erasmus to.. Scotland, of course!) but I think I'll manage to upload something new in two months or so :)
You never did season 2 and 3
Well look at me, such a lazy gal
Still waiting aren't I? I hope you are well.
The humility it takes to make a video this good and be surprised people left comments on it... I hope you never lose that quality. It'll serve you well, and there's not enough of it in the world.
Thank you, I remember seeing a few Star Trek episodes in the 1960s when I was a boy.
I always loved Scotty!!! His utter devotion to his ship and his great loyalty to Captain Kirk were terrific and of course his abilities as an engineering miracle worker were unparalleled!!!
Scotty aurait fait un très bon capitaine, j’aime beaucoup ce personnage raleur , sympathique tres humain. Il y a pas beaucoup de vidéo sur lui , Merci pour avoir fait ce travail
He made a big impression on me. RIP Scotty 🖖🏽
The best Second Officer Starfleet ever had.
A little interesting tidbit: You'll never see a clear picture of his right hand. His middle finger was shot off on D-Day in WW2 when he was with the Canadian armed forces. He was seriously wounded, shot in the chest and leg as well.
Aye, sir! I like this video! But I don't know how much longer I can hold it together! She'll break apart! LoL. Rest in peace, James Doohan. One of the best actors in the star trek universe. God speed!
"Warp Factor 8". Scotty's face is saying "Are ye on crack man?"
