          To be fair, Bones felt that way a lot of times too. As did Scotty.

          There was a lot of drinking going on…

            It was surprising that they also didn’t start smoking too … especially since it was the 60s and smoking was still a normal part of the culture back then.

      Needs more open racism against Vulcans. Maybe a crack about his ears, or mention “logic” in a really condescending tone.

          It is. It’s also pretty racist for a member of an organization that claims it left racism and other forms of prejudice behind.

            I think it creates a interesting plot dynamic. I’m sure it was thought out ahead of time.

            It is was better than the cheap cereal box style writing of modern trek
