Yes, it does. Revenge. RS1: "Oh, look, the Goldies are finally getting their asses kicked!" RS2: "Do-Do we even have names..?" RS1: "Ah-hah-ha... get 'em, Spock! Give 'em the ol' one-two!"

I like the way Sulu and Chekov both rushed Spock at once and Chekov gets pushed backwards to the helm and doesn't even collapse and Sulu ends up in the Captain's chair, spinning around for a bit and then Chekov leans out of the Captain's line of fire when he stuns Spock. Chekov's boots still have a highly polished shine, yet Kirk's are starting to look a bit dull after having had them on all day. Uhura doesn't even get involved in that dust up. She just stands there all during the fight scene. She must have seen how Sulu and Chekov got shoved back and decided "no, not going to get involved in that mess."
Army child of the 50s thru 70s here. When we returned from 3yrs in Greece in the 60s (after JFK assassination) It was a violent time in America - just like now. 😢 But OST kept this little 11 yr old girl sane, grounded and safe. I owe this show, the writers, actors, and everyone else and huge debt of gratitude.
If you pause and scrub the video, you can see that Kirk pointed the phaser somewhere between Spock’s upper chest and his neck. But the green stun splodge first shows much lower, closer to Spock’s belly. Of course, special-effects folks of that era didn’t anticipate that fans would be viewing the episode in 2020 on our wireless handheld devices and pausing the video to look for these details like the obsessive trekkie I still am.
3:05 How chilling was that little hiss Spock gave in response to Kirk's appeal? 🥶 I'll bet that was Nimoy's idea; it seems like the kind of thing he would think up. No words he could have spoken could have expressed utter derangement better than than that hiss. Vulcans are probably evolved from something very like a cat. It probably took centuries of mental discipline before they could stop themselves from hissing and purring.
WEll, remember in a previous episode (Return to Tomorrow) kirk told the crew "risk is our business!" So, they're either gonna be in the frying pan or the flames most of the time.
Well, At that point he is still in habited by the ambassador who apparently has emotions. Nonetheless, it was an odd sight to see Spock smiling. Kind of evil.
Y'know what? I really like that stun-blast effect. It looks a lot more real and visceral than the blobs of light, whizzing around slow enough for the eye to see, that usually get used.
"Don't move. No one is to move." When Kirk gave an order, everyone heard and obeyed. Of course, we knew Spock could kick all their asses toot sweet. Took a Phaser set to stun to bring him down. Such a great show.
The original Star Trek is still airing six nights a week 8:00 p.m. Eastern time followed by Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, Ending with Enterprise the prequel.
The old Fish Eye Lens Effect ! Nice, make everything funky. Spock ! To the Men's Room ! Yes Captain, Would you like me to hold it for you like usual Jim ? That would be logical, if you hold it everyday what makes this day any different? Aye aye Captain.
The music was absolutely perfect for this scene. The horn blasts are perfectly timed to the action. And of course Sulu and Chekov are going to charge Spock at the same time. How brilliant was that? No other show on television has made such prolific use of the double-fisted hammer blow. One thing is for certain: when I want some hard-hitting evil twin action, I turn on Star Trek.
Mr. Chekov addresses the Ambassador as "Mr Spock", but Mr. Spock/The Ambassador does not correct him. When I used to watch this as a little boy I always thought that it was sad when Captain Kirk interrupted Mr Spock/The Ambassador and told him that it was time to dissolve the link, then Mr. Spock/The Ambassador sadly responds, "so soon?" It reminded me of a child enjoying himself at an amusement park, and then the parent tells him that it's time to go home and the child sadly responds, "so soon?"
The impact site of the phaser stun bolt doesn't line up with where Kirk is aiming. He's aiming for the chest, but the impact nimbus emanates from Spock's abdomen.
@@Vistamister Well he shouldn't 😶 wouldn't be too good of a captain if he did, would he? It's just a stun, and he has to use it to make Spock available to Bones for healing his break-down (yeah, yeah, a doctor, not a psychiatrist, we know...)
The observance of basic health and safety requirements on the Enterprise was always way below an acceptable standard. How no one remembered the visor on Sulu's station should have seen the entire command crew sent for a month long refresher course on procedures.
I put my money on Spock. Vulcans are stronger than most humanoids. Do you remeber Trek 3 when Spock was in accelerated puberty and took out an adult Klingon male?
Okay they're lying about Joe Biden now too okay I see you now what you're doing I see now the game I see now the game guess what I'm not doing it and I'm not playing it anymore
I can't help being disturbed by the way McCoy's tone becomes slightly annoyed when he commands help to bring Spock to sickbay. Because it is about Spock or because Jim had held him back earlier? Or because he's had enough of the fact they always have the same problem with Spock: they simply can't match his Vulcan-strength and have to phaser him?
Anyone looking at the Medusan ambassador's box get reminded of the Navigators from Frank Herbert's _Dune_ series? I bring this up because I saw something on writing _Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back_ where the Emperor was inside a box like this one.
this is one of the episode that I've never forgotten since I saw it when I was a kid - araound 40 years ago or even more -: inside Spock there was one of the aethereal creatures they've found on a Planet contained in some bowl. they were not confined into physical bodies but they could possess any. The feeling of loneliness this one was experimenting and his words for telling his puzzlement and sadness- thou translated in my language - impressed me
Spock is a Vulcan poet immersed into a most tragic form of Shakespeare….until he gazes into the menacing machine box without his sight saving goggles. Better beware of Mr. Spock, especially when he emerges into the open while experiencing a painfully sightless and blinding rage.
Now that you mention it, I can’t believe not 1 person on that bridge noticed Spock walking back to the box without his visor on. I know it’s a fictional show, but you want it to be plausible. That being said, the director did get Spock close to the box before the ambassador side had his little speech about loneliness, this way Spock is only walking a few feet without the visor on. Him walking just a couple feet without it is a little more believable
This episode is a true gem and has one of the best musical scores in the series.
You're right about that Mr. Peter Rogers, evenly matched with the musical score too. I LOVE IT, SERIOUSLY!
Its weak as most Season 3. Teleplay is boring and nonsense. But nostalgia counts a lot ofc...
00:32 was always impressed by this inspiring monologue -- so well delivered and acted by Leonard Nimoy.
the geek manifesto. :)
Agreed.
The fish eye lens usage is some INCREDIBLE direction!
I sold a boat load of them in my day. Especially the auxiliary fisheye. Went right on top of a standard lens with an adapter. 52 mm 49 mm the most popular sizes like putting on a skylight filter only using a fisheye instead.
Kirk: "No one is to move!" Promptly moves.
No one else, I guess.
🤣🤣🤣
No one move? Really? Ok I'll move...
just a little. I'm more annoyed that Sulu wasn't allowed to warn him himself, just pointed it out to the captain
That's our boy! 😅
lol anyone else notice Uhura was like "I'm not getting in the middle of that!"
Uhuru and Miranda just sat back to let the "men" fight it out.

So good. Every episode was like a play. And always fun to see my favorite character Spock toss Kirk around.
Well, no wonder Dr Pulaski was so skilled a physician... she was over 100 years old!
She was OG trek, and the fans didnt like her. I loved her, I love Crusher too.

Comic book guy voice: i hope someone got fired for that blunder
I love the episode where McCoy says to Spock, “You stubborn pointy eared Vulcan!” 😂
Wasn't that like every other episode?
It was in “All Our Yesterdays”
Sulu makes sure he falls into the Captain’s chair in the fight sequence. Ooooooo mmmyyyyyyyy!
I don't know if I've ever seen such a literal POV shot in star trek like what's in this scene!
They did love the fish eye lens
It's a tricky angle to do.
@ClickBeetleTV Hey! 😅 if you've got a toy, you need to use it. 😅😅
The Ambassador talked about aloneness, yet he spends all his time in that seal box, alone!
I'm guessing that when the ambassador goes home, he/she/it gets out of the box.
"Set phasers to 'stun Vulcan'."
It's that BOOMING ACTION fight music that really sells the scene!

Most illogical. Humans do not have the capability of foreshadowing accurately.

The best and most influential television show of all time.
How did our society de-evolve so badly in 55 or so years that something this wonderful was made in the 60s but now all we have is trash?
Amen
Because they canceled Star Trek the next generation

This body transfer stuff always goes wrong. Will they never learn?

I love watching the original Star Trek. Kirk and spock are my favorite. Im 19 and I have model of captain kirk still in the box unopened
And now youre 25 :)
u 28 now, i hope u doing well
damn
Is this in the James Blish book,too?I mean,this particular story?I’m just wondering is all!Thank You by the way!
If you opened the box now would the model look like it's 91 years old??
I saw a quick smile from Spock after Chekov said bull’s-eye!
Spock showing his human side, good stuff.
Well, At that point he is still in habited by the ambassador who apparently has emotions. Nonetheless, it was an odd sight to see Spock smiling. Kind of evil.
Spock Smash.
And this whole time I thought it originated from him smashing the keyboard in TMP.
Is it me or is Sulu eager to get into the captain's chair in this scene.
Star Trek fight scenes are always funny haha this one has such serious music but then it looks like a kids show fight

Unusual to see Spock smile
He was possessed
What on earth is Dr. McCoy gonna do in a fight with Spock?
No kidding. Doctor McCoy is rarely any use in a fight with other humans, let alone a vulcan.

These two guys loved each other more than any married people I have ever known.
Daily life and death situations could do that to anyone. Well, that plus what is typed out in a script.
SUDHIR PATEL that's because they actually like each other and respect each other as individuals
Guys who go into combat together frequently develop that kind of a bond.

Geez, how many times does a vulcan have to run amok on board before some basic safety protocols are implemented?
Fascinating ! Logical, yet not implemented. I recommend the Vulcan Shield.

Some of these statements; pretty priceless. Great stuff people!
When kirk says cover your eyes me and my brothers laughed for days on end
Sulu ended up in the Captain's chair. That's some extreme foreshadowing.
Just happened to have a red shirt dude on the bridge with a phaser...

I don’t get why there’s no phaser beam coming out of the phaser as Kirk stuns Spock like in episodes before and after this one.
Spock is a Vulcan poet immersed into a most tragic form of Shakespeare….until he gazes into the menacing machine box without his sight saving goggles. Better beware of Mr. Spock, especially when he emerges into the open while experiencing a painfully sightless and blinding rage.

What happened to the first crew that landed on the Medusan planet? I assume they ate each other.
Wheelie: Aw S*it I seen this one, This is where Spock goes nuts
Awesome classic stuff... now i'm going to attack my roommate with rage with a fish lensed wide angle camera by pushing at him weakly TOS IS SWEET.
