What is it holding? A brain? A Provider?
Hey, I never noticed that before....

Brain and brain! What is brain?
The etymology of cordrazine - like cordial https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/cordial#word-history. The "cor" part relates to the heart, which is what it was used to treat - reviving a fibrillating Sulu's heart after his sudden console shock.
I am watching The Cage right now. And I notice for the first time that Spock has a rather obvious limp. Was that a deliberate choice to show his injuries from the previous mission on Rigel VII or was Nimoy actually hurt when filming?
As far as I know, a little of both. Spock's limp was implied to be because he was injured, but Nimoy always had a small but noticeable limp. He probably played it up under the circumstances.
I read something not all that long ago where he said that he was asked to limp in that episode. Not sure if anyone else saw that.
It was 100% intentional, to align with the dialogue.
BOYCE: Sometimes a man'll tell his bartender things he'll never tell his doctor. What's been on your mind, Chris, the fight on Rigel Seven?
PIKE: Shouldn't it be? My own yeoman and two others dead, seven injured.
Also, I think I recall the navigator Jose Tyler had a big bandage on his hand.

I was watching “The Man Trap” this afternoon, and, for the first time ever noticed that there’s a scene from either “The Cage” or WNMHGB. How could I miss that???
Which scene is that?
Also from MA ("Undeveloped Star Trek: The Original Series episodes")
It’s right after Kirk and Spock find Green’s body on the planet, and Kirk calls for General Quarters 3.
It'd be a good use of stock footage. People who have been drilled on where and when to go when such an order is given would take the same route to their quarters every time, assuming they're currently at their stations when the order is given.
Yes, except that the uniforms are different.
Well, nobody's perfect. I suppose if the series lasted longer, they'd film a variety of stock footage for these types of things.
The corridor scene? Yep. There's a quick cut that uses pilot footage.
I thought some extras had pilot uniforms on mixed with the new TOS standard.
That's not the only instance of footage from other episodes in The Man Trap, which had many! Here's everything I noticed (including the WNMHGB footage you already mentioned):
- The opening shot of Spock on the Bridge & Uhura at the Navigation station is lifted from The Naked Time.
- After Kirk and FakeGreen beam up to the ship, Kirk is shown walking down a corridor and boarding a turbolift to the Bridge. This is a deleted scene from The Corbomite Manoeuvre (the wall panel arrangement is unique to that episode). This shot was used again in What Are Little Girls Made Of when AndroidKirk leaves his quarters to return to the planet.
- When Kirk discovers Green's corpse he orders the ship to GC3 status. Among the footage of crewmen scurrying around there's also a deleted scene from WNMHGB (the uniforms are a dead giveaway)
- When Spock is attacked, the shot of Kirk running down the corridor to the "dispensary" is lifted from The Naked Time when Kirk was running to Engineering (the shot stops just before he arrives!)
