    Kirk picks up a Saurian brandy bottle and starts to pour but doesn't, and doesn't drink any when he first comes to meet Samuel Cogley in "Court Martial". (don't know if anyone referenced this episode and the Saurian brandy bottle before??)

    The devil in the dark contains a number of extremely rare occurrences two of them I believe only happen in this episode and in no other episode of the series. One of them only occurs in this episode as far as the first season is concerned.
    What are these rare occurrences?

    Well, one of them is that the teaser does not depict or involve the crew. Unique as far as I know.

    Was TOS full-scale shuttlecraft prop helpful for enhancing the believability of the future "world" of Enterprise and Starfleet?

    Only appearing in several episodes, it should have been used in many more episodes since it was built.

    Post:TOS the condition of TOS shuttlecraft then (maybe '70s or '80s) :sigh:...

    Very cool! But I'm assuming you posted in the wrong thread? And also do they put it on display so that random people can just like touch it and open it up?

    In the difficult questions for devil in the dark -- 1 remaining is unique in the entire series. The other I've found is also in common with two other first season episodes.

    probably not it, but Kirk addressing a line-up of crew members?

    Spock questioning the captains orders?
    KIRK: Mister Spock. I want you to assist Scotty in maintaining that makeshift circulating pump.
    SPOCK: I, I beg your pardon, sir?
    KIRK: You heard me.

    Scotty has to repair something that is not aboard the Enterprise or a sister ship.

    All good guesses and interesting observations but not exactly what I was looking for. The one is so obvious that you all know it but it just hasn't hit you in the face. And the other is kind of odd. I'll give a hint on the other one
    Devil in the dark is tied with where no man has gone before and what are little girls made of as far as being unique to the first season.
    A few more guests and then I'll give the answer.

    Right it's the only episode where there are no female speaking parts.
    Is that a fact that's the only time phaser one and Phaser two were mentioned by their names?

    In "Obsession" Kirk orders security men "armed with phaser two."
