Indeed. She 'fesses all to Captain Sulu. It's actually one of my favourite ever Star Trek novels (I still make time to read it once a year), but that part I'm a little squeamish about.
McCoy's daughter: why...
- Thread starter LMFAOschwarz

That would imply that the events played out differently to what we saw on screen. If you subscribe to the fact that they both knew better than to act on their feelings, it's more likely to have occurred when they were a bit bonkers on Miri's planet shortly after Janice's outburst. She may have been scabby but they thought they were going to die and she was the only woman on the planet who'd already hit puberty. Maybe the kids had already got an eyeful when they referred to Mr Lovey Dovey and bonk bonk!
Given how little relationship stuff we saw for the supporting cast in TOS they could easily have included an ongoing relationship for one or more of them even if only by reference of an off screen character.
Not that when "Generations" was originally going to guest star Shatner, Nimoy and Kelley, the lines about Sulu's daughter were actually about Chekov's daughter. Nimoy and Kelley turned down their roles, their lines were given to Doohan and Koenig respectively... and Demora Sulu was born!
I always suspected that Chekov was this biggest runaround out of all of them ...
Kirk also had a child with Miramanee. In the fashion of TV at the time, both died.
Since we don't see these characters 24/7 we've no idea what sort of relationship McCoy might have with his daughter. They might be close and in constant communication. He might spend some of his leave time with her.
Similarly, we've no idea if Scotty or Chekov have children. Some might pop up in TrekLit or in a new series or film.
Oh geez. I hope to God he never found out...evil transporter duplicate or not, most of us would feel lower than dogshit if that happened.
Although I have to ask: isn't medical science sufficiently advanced in the future that unplanned/unwanted pregnancies shouldn't ever happen? Meaning: By the time 300 years go by, I'd assume that birth control would be perfected to 100% accuracy...
Since when has science ever triumphed 100% over personal belief systems and dumb bad luck.
That's odd. I would think that medical science would have advanced to the point where one has to take medicines to actually LET one get pregnant, not to avoid same.
Bad side effects, so not approved by the FDA.
Maybe Captain Tryla Scott ("Conspiracy") was the result of STV's Scotty/Uhura.(

If you want to find a Scotty's child or grandchild, you'd better to look for a starship called USS Haggis or Whisky. N-C-C-1-7-0-1. No bloody A - B - C - or D!
Uhura was beyond even the aid of Medical Assistance to even get pregnant - to say nothing of giving birth. I suspect they were too old to make love, anyway. Instead, they'd hug and kiss. Pet a little ... maybe even try to dance slow for a couple of songs, before they got knackered. Otherwise, they'd play passionate games of Bridge, Bingo, or anything else "B" named that The Elderly play ... which would've been the full extent of their passion, most assuredly.Maybe Captain Tryla Scott ("Conspiracy") was the result of STV's Scotty/Uhura.(

Women in their 70s are having children nowadays and Doohan's wife had a baby when he was around 80.
Aye, but when Doohan met his wife, he was 53, or so, and she was turning 18 ...

Yes that's right, Uhura FAN DANCER was too old to have sex.
Because she was sooooooo old in ST:V she was practically falling apart, why it's a wonder she was running around on missions and stuff, really it's amazing she could still stand up.
Not necessarily by today's standard, and certainly not by Trek's future, where 140 is the average lifespan of a human male.Uhura was beyond even the aid of Medical Assistance to even get pregnant - to say nothing of giving birth.Maybe Captain Tryla Scott ("Conspiracy") was the result of STV's Scotty/Uhura.(
There's an upper age limit on sex in your world? I sure as hell don't plan to stop.
And it was only a few years after joining Mr Adventures in the closet.

She said she'd have him eating out of her hand. Was that a euphemism?
