If it
isn’t done just right, I could blow the entire communications system.
It’s very delicate work, sir. I can think no one better equipped to handle it, Miss Uhura.
Ok can we just talk about how cute that bottom left gif is though? Like I love it. Uhura working hard and Spock watching her like a fascinated cryptid
I recently learned that this line was ad libbed! Was watching an old 80s convention appearance by DeForest Kelley, made not long after this films release, and he said he ad libbed this.
I rly think we overlook how often spock just Does Whatever the Fuck He Wants. Like it would’ve been soooo easy to write spock as this straight laced character who always follows starfleet regulation no matter what. But it’s infinitely more interesting & hilarious to have a character whose unshakable moral code aligns with his commanders Most of the time, except for the times when it doesn’t, and in those cases he commits his whole being to things like jumping into a whale tank or stealing a whole starship or escaping the enterprise on a jet pack to mind meld with a giant sentient computer ship. Like he doesn’t do anything by halves and we love that for him
go spock go
It cracks me up that people tend to think of Jim as chaotic and Spock as straight laces bc like. Only one of these dudes decided “Fuck the rules I’m going to swim and talk to some whales” and it was not Jim
