Favorite 'Little' Moments...

I'm mildly confused here, are you suggesting it was implied that Kirk was incapable of forming healthy human attachments because of his devotion to his role?

I think he meant that when your ship is going away for five years, and your job aboard has you on call 24x7, and every woman aboard is your subordinate, there's going to be a problem finding love.

Yeah, that was one of the interpretations I had in mind, it's just I had a little trouble with the phrasing and the tangential shift in topic :shrug:
 
Obsession...the scene in the Enterprise corridor where Kirk basically forgives himself and Garrovick for their respective encounters with the vampire cloud.

I had forgotten another favorite little moment in Charlie X: Spock is talking to McCoy on the intercom and Charlie suddenly makes him start reciting lines of poetry. Like, "Tiger, tiger burning bright, in the shadows of the night" and "Once upon a midnight dreary while I pondered weak and weary..."

Then a moment later McCoy comes onto the bridge and yells, "What in the BLAZES is going on? I had Spock on the intercom and he goes into some kind of poetry-reading?!"

You describe the moment well, considering you don't remember it. :vulcan:
 
One of mine is the scene in "The Tholian Web" when Spock, Bones and Scotty drink the Theregan dirrivitative. Nothing against Kirk or Shatner, but there should have been more scenes with just those three guys. They were my favorite characters from TOS and its sad to think that all three actors are dead now.

Yes!!!!! "No difference, Ensign." A great scene from arguably the most military episode in all of Star Trek and one with awesome dialogue. That scene is really well-directed, too. I like how McCoy and the security team remain in the shot in the background apparently chatting, then eventually adjourn and walk away.
