Uhura obviously was able to pick things up quickly and her mind wasn't totally erased. She knew Swahili. She just had to be REMINDED of everything she had already learned.
Scotty's lack of temper is hilarious. In the episode before this the one with the Greek God Apollo, Scotty gets angry at Apollo and several times he electrocutes Scotty. He never does learn does he lol!
Good point! But, I don't know about him _never_ learning. Remember, later when it came into engineering later, and began tampering with the engine's fuel output valve. Scotty yelled at it, and warned it off, BUT this time, he never tried to physically attack it! he just stood there, beside it!
They used the same awesome stuntman as in the Apollo episode where Scotty also got zapped. The guy was known for taking risks and launching into flying air born back flips.
Well, this was sort of a landmark TOS episode. There was more humor than previous episodes. The villain is an inanimate object similar to HAL-9000. And it served as inspiration for a number of future videos such as "Star Trek: The Motion Picture", the "Short Circuit" movies, and the "Ultrajerk 2000" episode of "Dexter's Laboratory".
A big deal was made about Spock dying in "The Wrath of Khan," being resurrected in "The Search for Spock" and finally being quizzed about the experience by McCoy in "The Voyage Home." "You really have gone where 'no man's gone before'," McCoy says. Except Mr. Scott had, years before. It's too bad the movie producers (and so many of the new shows) didn't maintain good continuity with The Original Series. It would have been a real callback if there had been even just a brief line of dialogue between Spock and Scott, comparing the experience. It could have even just been something wonderfully cryptic, such as showing the end of a conversation between the two as they enter Engineering together, with Scott saying something like "Aye, I knew you'd be the only one who could comprehend what it was like" and Spock replying "Common experience is a basis of understanding."
@@paulpolpiboon9535 No, Chekov's death was just an illusion that he didn't even remember, which is why he survived. McCoy was significantly injured in a couple episodes, but never actually died.
The damage to her brain was compartmental, she retained much of everything especially that which is most primal, the therapy was just removing the "block" in her mind, which obviously didn't block everything
It had been desided...Nomad must die. But back here in reality(sort of), I've read that most times when Deforest Kelly would appear on-stage at a ST convention, the various audiences would chant "He's DEAD Jim!, He's DEAD Jim!, He's DEAD Jim! Etc..."
I looked up this video because my Samsung android had a glitch and wouldn't accept my correct password on the Lock screen, and I had to do a factory reset and reconstruct many thing from scratch. 😒
hes dead jim... then a commerical break ... go make a salami sandwich get a coke out of the fridge and get back in time you had you had about 90 seconds
Why don’t more people ship Sulu and Uhura? While Scotty heads straight for Nomad, Sulu’s the one who warns Uhura when Nomad is in front of her, tries to move her out of harm’s way, and catches her when she loses her memory. And from the look on his face it’s clear he really cares about her.
How can she be retrained in a few hours in sick bay it took years in Starfleet to learn her skills and ship protocols rubbish thing to say that's she can be retrained in sick bay hahahaha
My theory is that Nomad wiped out her conscious memory but there are so many links and pathways in the brain that it would be relatively easy to restore them. In the future we will understand more about learning and teaching and how to do it efficiently. The pioneering neurosurgeon Dr. Wilder Penfield believed that the brain is a recording device and we remember everything that ever happened to us. There isn't a way to prove that but I think it's at least possible. I do question the fact that Uhura would come out of it with exactly the same personality that she had before.

That's the shocking truth. 😂
When Scotty gets zapped.. I swear that’s the tie fighter blaster sound, used about 10 years later in A New Hope!
huh! interesting
Nichelle Nichols 😥 in memoriam perpetua!
The ones where Scotty gets zapped and does a backflip crack me up! Also the Apollo one!
I picking up a trend lol
"What is the meaning?....What is 🎶music?." One of the best questions of StarTrek❤️
1:15 - "What is music? Think about music." OH MY! Poor Uhura gets her memory wiped out by Nomad!
memory erase....this machine could come in handy
They used the same awesome stuntman as in the Apollo episode where Scotty also got zapped. The guy was known for taking risks and launching into flying air born back flips.
That machine looks like a floating garbage disposal 😅
Oh, Scotty! Why did you put on a red shirt that morning? Didn't you KNOW?

LOL Like nobody else but Bones know how to check a pulse.:D
I like to hear it from a professional lol. He takes the liability
"He's dead, Jim."
Well, he IS a red shirt.
He's dead Jim.
He's a red shirt.
We're always hearing that McCoy never quite says that. And yet it's right here!!
Random redshirt appears out of nowhere to run to Scotty's aid, then just as quickly disappears forever.
Scotty did the right thing. He was looking out for a fellow crewmate.
He had to too, and it was a woman to boot
Score Update : Nomad: 50 Redshirts: 0
I blame the shirt.
For real, for real. Both Scotty and Uhura had on red shirts and they were attacked. 😂
Looks like Nomad was wanting to download her memory but instead did a CUT instead of COPY.
Oh the drama! love it!

Unattainable expectation
Well, didn't Chekov die in that cowboy OK Corall episode? And I believe Bones died too, where he was hanging on ropes by crazy robot ladies.
@@paulpolpiboon9535 No, Chekov's death was just an illusion that he didn't even remember, which is why he survived. McCoy was significantly injured in a couple episodes, but never actually died.
with her memory erased, Uhura needed to be taught to read English, but was still fluent in Swahili

The mechanical beast is up here
beastie, please
0:34 Sulu... Hey Nomad, personal space!
1:23 I called myself my name
1:26 You don't see too many shots of that angle of the bridge.
He's dead, Jim!
He's dead, Jim!
He's dead, Jim!
He's dead, Jim!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaagggh!!!
Uhura. Giggity.
Scottie is a redshirt. ....
He's dead Jim, but not as we know it!
He's dead, Jim.
Whew
As long as nomad didn’t erase mammaries
NOMAD V M5. FIGHT!

Funny! I can just imagine how Kelly reacted to the chants!!
boy was that robot right
The fundamental flaw is why was she singing on an open channel?
I looked up this video because my Samsung android had a glitch and wouldn't accept my correct password on the Lock screen, and I had to do a factory reset and reconstruct many thing from scratch. 😒
I am programmed to investigate
Does nobody on this ship know how to do chest compressions?
0:34 Oh my.
Hes dead jim
1:24 1:25 I did the same thing
Or... ...
That's not me....
.
Ever think of that1
Blooey?
No...
.
These people pulled some scam and had me pay for it
I really don't know them
Bluë

True....but way back then...I bought it hook line and sinker
Personally, I wish I could go Kick Kirk in the butt for not thinking to order Nomad to _PUT BACK_ all the knowledge it drained from her mind! .

In fact, I am going to go post that as a top comment, not just as a reply.
@@TheNoiseySpectator While that would be fun to see, NOMAD did state that the Erasure was permanent when Kirk asked it to restore her memory.

That sure is a dumb super computer; doesn't even know what music is. 😂
Well, Uhura kinda deserved that for singing at work.

Nomad itself said when Kirk ordered it to "repair" Uhura: " NOT POSSIBLE".
I take that to mean it could not put back the knowledge it erased.
Nomad erased all of her acting skills. She never got them back.
