Funniest Things You've Misheard While Watching the Show

[meow point1]

Have you ever been watching Star Trek and thought you heard them say something but then thought "That can't be right?"
Well, now's your chance to tell us about it!
I'll share mine first.

1. I thought I heard Trip say to the Cogenitor in an annoyed voice, "There are too many Hoshi's on my planet"
2. I thought I heard Malcolm Reed say to T'Pol "You look like Hagrid"
3. I thought I heard Trip say to Malcolm "You look like Hoshi"
4. When the character from the TNG episode "Too Short a Season" said "I am strong! I am alert", I thought he said, "I am Lurch!"
5. Related, I once thought I heard Picard say to Worf "How's the Lurch Status?"
6. When Spock said to Kirk "we might be in trouble ourselves", I thought he said, "We might be in Tribble ourselves"

Note. Please refrain from swearing and if one of the misheard quotes contains a swear word, use this emoji instead:

I've already posted this, but in case anyone missed it the first time:

In "The Paradise Syndrome," Scotty says "My bairns! My poor bairns!" (referring to his overworked, burnt-out engines). Not knowing that "bairn" is a Scottish word for baby or child, I thought he said "My poor bearings!" I imagined the Enterprise powered by pistons and crankshafts.

In "The Savage Curtain" I heard "Kahless, the unforgettable Klingon who set the pattern for his planet's tyranny." when it was actually: "Kahless the Unforgettable, the Klingon who set the pattern for his planet's tyranny."

There's a bit in "The Changeling" where Nomad cranks the Enterprise up to Ridiculous Speed and while he's doing it Scotty and some other engineer are yelling across the engine room at each other. At one point, Scotty goes "Impossible. It can't go that fast!" and the other guy, who's really excited now, says utter gibberish followed by "warp 11!"

I've seen that episode loads of times across decades, and have no clue what the other guy says.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

According to the transcript, it's

"It just won't stop, Mister Scott. Warp 11!"

 

[F. King Daniel]

According to the transcript, it's

"It just won't stop, Mister Scott. Warp 11!"

I can sort of see that, but he gets way too excited and squeaky to make out clearly

I've already posted this as well, but when I was a kid, I thought they were calling them "fulltime torpedoes"

In TAS The Eye of the Beholder, Kirk responds to Spock's correction of some thing he said by saying, "Careless of me, Mister Spock."

For some reason I always heard that as "Kahless help me, Mister Spock," and wondered why on Earth he would be invoking a legendary figure idolized by their enemies the Klingons.

KIRK: According to their lot, they (crew of the Ariel) beamed down six weeks ago.
SPOCK: Five weeks, three days, two hours and four minutes to be exact, Captain.
KIRK: Careless of me, Mister Spock.

In "The Savage Curtain" I heard "Kahless, the unforgettable Klingon who set the pattern for his planet's tyranny." when it was actually: "Kahless the Unforgettable, the Klingon who set the pattern for his planet's tyranny."

Rock Guy singing: "Unforgettable... that's what Kahless is..."

"Vulcan death grits."
Sounds delish!

Scotty to Spock in Day of the Dove: Keep your hands off me!

Fucking or Damned?

 

[Kor]

^ The actual line is "Keep your Vulcan hands off me."

According to certain anecdotes, either the director or writer suggested that Doohan pronounce "Vulcan" in a harsh manner that might sound kind of like something else.

So, yeah.

How quaint.

Watching BEYOND, I was sure I heard them mention the Kzinti.

But, yeah, they probably meant the Xindi instead.

That's funny, isn't it?

That's funny, isn't it?

Edison said, "We lost millions in the Xindi and Romulan wars," or something like that.
