There's just one question left for me:

Can someone confirm what Proconsul Claudius Marcus shouts to his stormtroopers when he orders them to attack Kirk and company in their prison cell? I've never been able to make it out.

This transcription thread quotes Proconsul as shouting "Swords only!" I'm not doubting that; I would just appreciate confirmation.

The scene after that where Captain Merrick whips out a Starfleet communicator and calls for help, to be fittingly stabbed in the back, and then tosses the talkie into the cell to save Kirk's bacon, is one of my all-time favorites. This ep is seriously underrated. It puts the "classic" in "classic STAR TREK".

This episode has the distinction of being played the least in my market when I was a child. I grew up on reruns of Star Trek. But for every one time that I saw this episode, I saw all of the others probably five or six times. Weird.

Yes, he says "Swords only!" Checked the episode to make sure.

Thanks!

That line always bugged me.

Alienesse · June 14 2011, 08:26 AM

Oh, you're done? Serves me right for not coming in here for 4 straight days...

LeadHead · June 14 2011, 08:34 AM

Don't feel too bad, Alienesse, I'm in the same boat on this one.

Alienesse · June 14 2011, 11:07 AM

I guess we'll have to wait for the next one. Fortunately, there are plenty of episodes to go.

^^^Assuming anyone gets in here to start it! lol!!

Regarding this moment:

KIRK: Stand back.

(He shoots the lock out.)

I'm surprised, with the wacky senses of humor we've got in this mad group of transcribers, that someone didn't post the following:

Kirk: Stand back. (Shatner is picked up and ran back across the set by Ted Cassidy)

Shatner: Hey! I don't know about you, but this is not the way it should work! I want you to know!!
