Name That STAR TREK Episode...

Who Mourns For Adonis? (Some uniform colors seem particularly bright in that episode)

 

Patterns of Force

Spock rolls with it when Melekon is saying he's an inferior species
And Kirk has the Gestapo uniform.

 

Huh, you're right, they do! Good call but not the ep I'm looking for. Remember the first clue.

And I still can't believe they had Kirk talking about how nice his uniform was! I'll assume he was being sarcastic. But again, no. Recalibrate your subcutaneous transponder.

 

Well is not the Enterprise Incident which fits these clues because it was guessed and shot down already...hmmm...how about The Squire of Gothos?
1. Spock gets invited to be Trelane's guest even though he dislikes him; Spock then sits through the dinner and entertainment.
2. Trelane's general's uniform.

 

Tomorrow is Yesterday.

Streak of barbarism, remember? He can be for the uniform and against it at the same time.

 

I'm not sure what the writers forgot in TEI, except, well, how to write Kirk and Spock, but . . .

Good call on Squire. Not quite the episode I'm looking for, however.

[All dissolve in laughter] Illogical. Totally.

Great guess on TIY, and that's it! (Although there is another ep that fits as well so I may run these clues again next time I'm lucky enough to be up.) The writers have Christopher misquote Spock ("no relevant contributions" versus "no relative contributions") and Spock rolls with it. Instead of remembering that he used quite a different word, he says "Poor choice of words on my part," even though actually he never said what Christopher claims.

Christopher, an O-3 pilot, gets a nice crisp Starfleet uniform in gold with an O-3 rank shown by the single stripe. I always appreciated this (apparent) attention to detail, although it probably wasn't a good idea to give a random dude from another time a uniform where he could actually order people around. We've seen before that not everyone on the crew knows one another.

Now, as to why you thought TIY was the answer . . . .

BK613 - you're up!

 

@Phaser Two : Just a random guess of an episode with non-Starfleet uniforms in it.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Clue 1: It's no use shooting in the dark.

 

I'm not biting on the obvious, so, I'm guessing The Galileo Seven, where Spock orders the men to shoot phasers at 2 and 10 o'clock headings into the fog; they can't see the aliens but Spock can hear them.

 

"THE IMMUNITY SYNDROME"?

 

"The Devil In The Dark": Just in case the obvious was the answer.

 

I thought the obvious answer is Balance of Terror

 

Yep.
KIRK: That thing would probably like phasers. It eats power.

You're up, @Farscape One

 

Thanks. First clue...

Lt. Matson answers the call.

 

The Conscience Of The King?

 

It's got to be

Larry Matson : [replying through intercom] Larry Matson here. Is that you, Riley? What's up?

Kevin Riley : Not me. I am down... In the engineering room.

Larry Matson : Maybe you've been a bad boy.

Kevin Riley : Maybe so. Whatever I've done, they're sure keeping it a secret from me.

 

Got it in one. It is indeed "THE CONSCIENCE OF THE KING". And here I thought I was being vague...

Your turn, Discofan.

 

Thank you!

First clue:

One of the rare cases where the speed of light is a limit.

 

The Lights of Zetar

 

I think that's right, too.

I'm going to guess Obsession just in case

 

Sorry no.

Some are taken aback by Kirk's words.
