The longest single sentence...

[gottacook]

I think it has to be this one (nearly 60 words!) from Commissioner Bele to Kirk and Spock:

Yes, he will evade, delay, and escape again and in the process put thousands of innocent beings at each other's throats, getting them to kill and maim for a cause which they have no stake in but which he will force them to violently espouse by twisting their minds with his lies, his loathsome accusations and his foul threats.​

What a great casting choice. I can't imagine anyone but Frank Gorshin delivering that line.

Actors love it when their character gets to make a speech. In contrast to George Takei always pining for Sulu to command, Walter Koenig once said he wouldn't care if Chekov got busted down to nothing and put in a jail cell, as long as he got a three minute soliloquy.

And at the opposite end, Leonard Nimoy said the hardest scene for him to play was having to stand there with no lines and nothing to do.

I thought that the longest sentence was one Harry Mudd got.

Bele was such a dick.

Every time I think we're completely out of things to discuss...

 

[Oddish]

The longest single sentence is... "I do."

This is a great way to find stuff for Star Trek Hangman that we're doing in the lounges.

You know there's no room for boredom here.

59 words, to be exact -- or 7 words longer than the Preamble to the U.S. Constitution, which must be the second longest sentence spoken in Trek TOS/TAS.
