The Massive Continuity of Ducks

spoofymcgee:

uh. so. the city on the edge of forever is kinda. real fuckin’ gay.
so. they’re orbiting this planet. and they run into some unexpected turbulence and mccoy stabs himself with a whole fucking lot of some chemical used to restart people’s hearts. as a result, he develops godly amounts of paranoia and becomes walking foreshadowing.
he beams down to the planet, hides behind some rocks when they try to find him and leaps into a time portal to the great depression.
this royally fucks up all known reality, so obviously kirk and spock have to go and find him.
they jump through and spock immediately starts getting stares for his ears, which makes him adorably self conscious (he does this little head scratch move to hide them for a moment that i unfortunately didn’t get a screenshot of). kirk decides the best move is theivery, scales a fire escape and nicks them some clothes, sliding down just in time to get caught by a policeman.
he attempts to explain, spock by, uh, claiming that he’s chinese. gets stuck on the ears.
not to worry, spock jumps in with ‘perhaps they were a result of my unfortunate accident as a child.’
'oh… yes… you see, he had a run in with a. mechanical. rice? picker? and um. a nearby missionary, who was also a… plastic surgeon, yeah, saved his life.’
policeman don’t buy it, but they pull the classic 'you distract him so i can knock him out’ move and bolt.
this is where we meet edith keeler, head of the local mission, runner of the soup kitchen, all around wonderful lady.
she gives the two of them jobs and finds them lodging with very few questions, so now kirk and spock are temporarily roommates!
'honey, i’m home! i brought you some lettuce!’
they have a little ~~lovers’ spat~~ professional argument, but it’s okay because they make up afterwards
spock is displeased with the quality of science equipment he has to work with.
'why mr spock, what’s wrong?’
'i am attempting, ms keeler, to construct and impossible device out of stone knives and bearskins.’
’spock! don’t tell her that.’
edith catches them stealing and demands to know what the hell they think they’re doing, so kirk vouches for spock’s virtue, but now, edith wants to know where they’re actually from.
'where do you think we belong?’
'you? you belong at his side, like you’ve always been there and always will be, mr spock’ (i cannot believe they aired this line. what the fuck, ma'am. that’s like. so fucking gay.)
'why does spock call you ~~babygirl~~ captain?’
'uh. well. let me tell you about this awesome alien book i read once!’
'oh, hey, look! it’s mccoy! and he’s not doing so hot!’
'hospitals. they still have needles. and sutures!’ *faints*
local man has stolen future technology, potentially vaporizes himself. i’m sure this can have absolutely no negative repercussions whatsoever.
you can’t see it very well, but spock came into the kitchen just as edith left with mccoy. this is comedy gold.

I’m curious as to what was the first Star Trek episode everyone saw. Mine was Return of the Archons.
Teeechnically the first one I saw was “Interface,” TNG, but I only saw like three scenes in a hotel room while I was making breakfast when I was 10 or 11 (all I remember is there was a scene with Worf standing next to Picard and I just kept staring at Worf like :o <3, and a scene where Data was working at his computer and I was just sitting there like “Why is he…silver,” and then I CLEARLY remember the scene with Geordi being like “Data there’s nothing on the screen what are you doing” and Data explaining ancient Doosodorian poetry to him).
If you mean the first episode I saw in totality/comprehended, that was the first episode of DS9 :)
