They are the Good Guys. Yes, Evil is Cool, and Good is Dumb, but the Good Guys even save the Bad Guys when they are in trouble.
Well, it *is *rather intellectual.
There were in ST V: The Final Frontier. Kirk had a sit-down on one.
Come on! Who wouldn’t trust a seven-year-old Clint Howard?
They have to use a paper voiceprint to nail Kodos, and it isn’t even an exact match? What, DNA testing was another art lost in WW III???
One of my favorites as well. (Lucky for us the Romulans speak to each other in English.)
What I want to know is, How did they manage to get that far out into space on simple impulse power? :dubious: 
That whole movie should be flushed down a dilithium-powered toilet.
Cerebral, even.
My own criticism of that episode is that it embraces the hammy stereotype of the Shakespearean AC-tor!
I thought Karidian was hamming it up as part of his disguise.
Did you know, Balok had a second job as a ball-park vendor. No? He had a little speech - “This is hot-dog. I hope you relish it as much as I.”
I watched *The Enemy Within *last night. Is this the episode that drove Yeoman Rand to a different career? She’s on the verge of getting raped by evil!Kirk and she acts all apologetic. “Then he kissed me and he said that we, that he was the Captain and he could order me.” And then, "I don’t want to get you into trouble. I wouldn’t have even mentioned it! "
Helluva service you got there in your “enlightened” 23rd century. And then Spock at the end: "The, er, impostor had some interesting qualities, wouldn’t you say, Yeoman? " What the heck is that supposed to mean? It’s it great he’s such a “manly man”? You need to get laid, Yeoman? What?
One of the least problematic of the translator issues. They negotiated with the Romulans a century before, so Romulan was certainly in the computer translation database. And no doubt they train on it in the Academy since there were no language problems during the Enterprise Incident show.
If you get a chance watch “The Enemy Below” the movie this episode was based on / stolen from. Robert Mitchum is the American destroyer captain up against a German submarine quite like the Romulan ship. Quite good and exciting.
You mean “THES-pian!” 
Fan-Wank: Romulans warp-drive run on forced singularities. 1701 wasn’t equipped to scan for that.
Fan-Wank 2: What we saw is a seperated vehicle and will meet the mother ship later.
I’d wank for that.
Right. But why did the Romulans speak to each other in English? The camera was a fly on the wall for these exchanges.
Also why did the Romulan capitan look exactly like Spock’s dad? 
You some kind of troublemaker, AnalogSignal? :dubious:
Separated at birth? :dubious: :eek:
Kurt Jurgens is the German captain.
He needed the money.
If I were a newbie accusing the captain of a naval vessel (especially one whose normal character is fairly well known) of a violent sexual assault, I’d go about it somewhat cautiously, wouldn’t you?
I see no reason to assume that people will be any more “enlightened” in 200 years than they are today.
Yes, I’m a pessimist and a misanthrope. So sue me!
