Yup: the corridor that houses the agony booth. That's quite a busy little nook of the ship in the mirror universe.
Observations on Janice Lester's isolation room
- Thread starter Just a Bill
- Start date
Is the "window" wall panel in Charlie's room a single use item? I'm trying to place it elsewhere and nothing is coming, but they HAD to re-use stuff as generic as this:Fair point, but that vertical column is still WAY bigger than how it ended up in the episode!
- The curved wall (with the recesed bookcase) first appeared in Kirk's closet in a deleted scene in The Corbormite Maneuvre.
- Then it was due to appear in Charlie's cabin but never made it onscreen.
- However, the same cabin configuration was used for Kolos in Conscience Of The King and the bookcase shelf is plainly visible (alone with the fancy sofa from Talos V!)
- The bookcase shelf also appeared as a wall section of the brig, in The Changeling and Mirror Mirror.
They used Marplon's Absorption Chamber console in five episodes. I can't believe that distinctive piece of wall was never seen again.
Also, look at the shelf in these three frames:
It wraps around (it's that big?), so you can see it in the first image, but then you can't see it in the third one. Might just be the angle. Or were they cheating?
According to the production report, the normal transporter scenes were filmed on the first day of filming on Monday 7/24/67. The transporter room (Mirror version), was the last set to be filmed the next day which apparently gave them enough time to redress the set as needed. Filming continued in the Mirror version of the transporter room and wrapped up the next day, Wednesday, 7/26/25.
I get your point. FJ obviously got things wrong, but I’m always so impressed at what he did accomplish in the era before vhs, dvd, blue Ray, screen caps etc. He was the first, and he created the whole genre of doing “blueprints”. And his blueprints and technical manual were such huge parts of my youth…so I guess I tend to cut him a bit more slack.
Was not that the same screen that ended up between McCoys Lab and Office in the second and third season?
Good point!
Although in this case the "changing room" would also have to share floorspace with the side corridor which runs alongside Kirk;s cabin in this episode.
Perhaps the little table is for a security guard to monitor the side entrance?
Another possibility is that the side corridor is pretty shallow and what we see from the outside angle is it (like the little alcove with the red grille behind it). That angle in the side corridor that is visible might be a narrow passageway around the side room but I kinda doubt there is any room for one.
