Just because she says she has six books in her head... doesn't mean she's just going to write six books, by the time she gets to her sixth book, she'll probably have anotther dozen in her head. I wouldn't want to count how many books it would take to get all the ideas I have out of my head.
I love earlier in the episode when Trelaine asks Spock if Vulcan’s are predators. Spock’s answer was priceless. “Not generally, but there are exceptions.” If that’s not a challenge and warning to back off. I’m not here.😀
By today's standards that is a massive ship. Far greater than a modern cruise ship or most U.S. Navy vessels. With a ship compliment far smaller than what a cruise ship or aircraft carrier. But Spock as a senior officer (captain by rank functioning as the executive officer and science officer) is afforded rather limited personal living space. Kirk's little bachelor pad isn't shown to be much bigger. What were they doing with all of that internal volume? We only see a few work spaces on the bridge and in engineering. Where are most of these people operating their work stations? How much space do they occupy?
I think when in that future everything is attainable you don't want your personal rest space cluttered up when your role is to be on active duty on a Diplomatic & Science but war capable vessel. A few personal nicknacks maybe for comfort but you don't require a presidential suite.
@@MrSCOTTtheSCOT In the original five year mission with the same classification of vessel and general dimensions they were expected to live aboard for an extended time. It's pretty damn small.
Star Trek: Enterprise Season 2, Episode 2 "Carbon Creek". It's about a Vulcan ship that accidently crashed on earth in 1957 before the official first contact with earth.
It was "A Fistful of Datas", Season 6, Episode 8. Data's little experiment had him accidentally swap data with a running western holodeck program. Hilarity ensued.
Americans so often use this expression, “off the bat” - does it mean, “at first” and if so, I wonder why it has become so popular when it is actually longer than the original phrase.
@@DegjoyNot all colloquialisms serve the purpose of shortening language. All languages have variety in their colloquialisms. It is not unique to Americans, let alone English
