The Funniest TOS Scene EVER!

Please say in which episode/runtime it appears:bolian:
Space Station K7 is the setting for "The Trouble With Tribbles". I don't think it appears again till Deep Space Nine, which would call it DS K7.
Any scene where Scotty is drunk is usually hilarious. We did it, you and me .. put him right under the table.
Yes! As he kisses the bottle. Then he bends down, picks up a device and says "I'll take this to the captain!", upon which the liquor hits him and he passes out. Hilarious.
 
For me it's the moment in Patterns Of Force when Spock tells Kirk he should make a very convincing Nazi. That look on Kirk's face as he stops adjusting his hat and just glares at Spock gets me every time.

At the end of Alternative Factor Kirk struggles with Lazarus. I always crack up when Lazarus lifts Kirk up and swings him around like a rag doll.
 
That's nothing. When Ruk picks Kirk up and puts him against the wall like he's a small child, I always wonder if the look of fear is Kirk's, or Shatner's.

In "What Are Little Girls Made Of?" Kirk really looks like a rag doll at the hands of Ruk.:biggrin:
 
Kirk/Spock slash is painfully annoying and embarassing, but I can't seem to make sense of this scene outside of that context:

Only in the sense that Kirk feels more comfortable having someone who he knows will help him without commenting on the awkwardness of it. Like how a little boy would be okay with his dad seeing him in his underwear, but not his mom or the little girl next door. :o:crazy:

Or if you thought your friend was tapping you on the shoulder, but in reality it's the creature (mummy, vampire) you're trying to escape.

Well, it's OK for his 1st officer friend to give him a bit of a back rub, but when it's the Yeoman? Well... there's a little sexual tension there, especially with that "throbbing" motion. I think that's why Kirk reacts that way and feels embarrassed. :)

I, Mudd - this may be the funniest of all the episodes. The whole thing is campy from start to finish, with the clueless androids. Best scene was the play acting by the crew to fool them.
A Piece of the Action definitely has some very comical bits to it. Half the episode seems to be tongue-in-cheek, with everyone playing "gangsta", including Spock. :D
Trouble with Tribbles
is cute... but it's more or less a little bit of chuckling here and there.
Shore Leave has some pretty funny moments, like Finnegan's altercation with Kirk. And witty remarks by Spock. Plus McCoy's return at the end.
Squire of Gothos is a bit funny with the outlandish and brash Trelane.
Plato's Stepchildren has a good bit of humor in it. Especially that scene with Kirk mimicking a horse, and Spock doing the flamenco dancing around the supine Kirk. Of course, you have to look past the terror aspect... these people are being manipulated. But face value it's pretty hilarious.

Finnegan was pretty silly but his fight with Kirk is one Trek's best knock down drag out fights ever!
