Confirmed: Isis was NOT Victoria Vetri

[Phaser Two]

I love how everybody is happy that this is finally solved...

In a month I'll start a thread "Why is Victoria Vetri lying about not being in Star Trek?"

Oh?

KIRK: Bones.
MCCOY: Yes, Captain?
KIRK: I shouldn't have engaged in that posting behavior. I'm sorry.
MCCOY: I understand.
SPOCK: Inefficient, however. Emotion, Captain.
KIRK: Yes, you're quite right, Mister Spock. Inefficient . . . [Shatnerian pause] . . . and illogical.

I eventually got to speak with Victoria, a couple of years back but when I tried to contact her again a year or so ago I was met with silence as it were! I believe she is now out of the slammer at least!

I had Bee Girls and sold it!!! AAARGHHHH!

It's good this issue has finally been put to rest.

How did you get to be such a fan, JB?

I'm still not convinced. I think I'm going to need to spend several more hours googling NSFW pics of Victoria Vetri before the debate is settled once and for all. Veritas lux mea!

Why was she in the slammer?

How noble of you to make this great sacrifice in order to enlighten humanity.

Let us know how that turns out, in Latin or otherwise. Better yet, don't.

While I was in there I added information about the history of "Assignment: Earth" and tried to tighten the over-specific and overlong plot summary.

Even the Daily Mail calls her "stunning Star Trek actress Victoria"...........

 

[Ronald Held]

Who is left in TOS production who can tell us who the actress is?

ARRRGH!

Bizarrely, people are still refusing to take Vetri at her word. I was posting about this elsewhere and some folks are still:

"But . . . but the Cushman book!"

"But . . . IMDB!"

"I guess we'll never know the truth."

 

[plynch]

She is covering something up. Alex Jones will tell us the truth!

I can't imagine any surviving cast or crew would remember, at this point, who played the part. If the girl herself is deceased, that's probably the end of it.

Maybe a facial recognition AI system could take her Star Trek close ups and run them against all known photographs ever scanned. That's how Batman found Wonder Woman, if I'm not mistaken. But our girl's high school yearbook might never have been scanned and made accessible to the wider world. If she never won a local beauty contest or posed for a publicity still with Elvis, she could well be lost to history.

Another idea is to crowd-source the question nationally on social media. Show Isis's picture and ask, "Was this you, your mother, your aunt, your grandma? Does anybody know who this is?"

Yeah. I'm kinda surprised that nobody has already posted an old photo on Facebook: "Check out Mom from when she did a bit part of STAR TREK back the day, before she moved back to Ohio and became a real estate agent. Wasn't she a looker?"

AFAIK, there's no remaining production material from TOS which could indicate who played Isis.

The other surviving actors probably don't know either - Robert Lansing passed away years ago, Teri Garr isn't likely to want to talk about it (she's pretty much washed her hands of Trek), and nobody else ever had a scene with Isis.

The cat isn't talking either.

If she's only seen in cutaways they might not have even had her on set at the same time as the rest of the scenes were shot. She might've been first-in or last-in.

Cat's got her ton— oh, wait.
