   What the obligatory "Green-skinned alien female" gag (thus making it the   
   first time in the canon Kirk actually *did*, unless we discount that   
   this's alternate canon)?   
      
   Oh, and for the record, Uhura's first name is unofficially "Nyota", she   
   tends to flirt with Scotty, and Nurse Chapel was the one with the   
   unrequited hots for Spock--   
   Took two minutes to look that up on the fan-Wiki, so not the kind of   
   thing you can build entire running plot points around.

   Under the circumstances, "Fine" would be inappropriate.  :)   
      
   (Can we say "Best Darn Feature Trek Since Nicholas Meyer Left", until   
   Mike and Kevin do their dopey knee-jerk haven't-seen-it Rifftrax because   
   they want to make imaginary geeks cry?)   
      
   Derek Janssen (who would've compared it to "First Contact", but this one   
   mercifully had no Alfre Woodard)
