If anyone has any held DQs I am perfectly happy that you get to ask them even if the total slips over 20 questions. Shoot I’m happy dropping subtle hints if it’ll mean closing this round, but I’m easy as I’ve said. ---

To summarize: Someone from a 1960’s American-made live-action sci-fi movie set in the future whose first or middle name starts with Z, probably the villain, not the protagonist or a good guy in any case. Human, adult, not military, doesn’t kill anyone, not from Star Trek I’m not coming up with someone off the top of my head… ---
