  • EASILY the best episode ever

  • ROFL

    "don't give me those baby blue eyes." "...what?!"

    ily bones

  • LOL! Kirk's double take @ 21:15 is almost Spokesque. Anyone remember Aolian's double take at King Joffe Jaffar saying "There's a fine line between love and nausea." in Coming to America? But seriously, I'll take "Freeze!!" for 400 (3:34). And they both seem happy that he got a Schronk in Fizzbin, so . . . Jacks are goo- no, ba- no, goo- no, ba... 15:25

  • @ medja and DECO: Um . . . what the hell . . . ?

  • This is The Pinch Ep for sure! Four of them, with three of my favorites (the one at 17:37 - the second pinch in just over a minute - my co-favorite in the series). There's one Inexplicable Moment when Kirk gets picked up at 17:10. He has at least two excellent opportunities to overpower a guy who gets waaay too close to him with a tommy gun...and doesn't make a move.

  • Right? Unquestionably. RIGHT? Right.

  • Fisban. Classically funny. The episode is silly, but it was one of my favorites when I was a kid.

  • Oh gosh, Spock in a suit. *Faints*

  • kirk sounds like a gangster lol

  • Lol Kirk at the end talking to Spock... he so knows he is in trouble.

  • lol! Spock an' Kirk ( Spock-o an' Koik ) tri'n to be gangstas! XD

  • Published in 1992 ... O_o

    Gotta love the 60s! XD

  • @3link1 Seriously??? THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST!!!!!!

  • 28:10

    Mmmm boys, you look so fiiiiine!

  • WTF...Spocko.. sillyest episode I did ever see.

  • The gangster bitches are ugly. We need the hot space babes in the short skirts and black pantyhose.

  • kirk's gangsta voice

  • wtf? does that boss guy not know how to play pool.

  • HEY YOU TUBE - TURN THE AD VOLUME DOWN....

  • I love when they travel through time

  • Everybody wants a piece of the action. Everybody wants a piece of the pie.

  • 3:05 Spock checking out DAT ASS

  • @HubertHoratio LOL, I noticed that as well

  • Spiro Agnew!

  • Gotta love Kirk's driving!

  • THE Best time-involved Star Trek episode EVER!!!!! Only if gangsta Spock could visit my school.

  • I liked that Boss actor. He died way too early. "Vera, you call your bird, bird-die?? Hehe, and if you had a dog, would you name him, dog-gie??"

  • Gangster Spock ftw.

  • Why doesn't Spock tell Kirk to knock off that dumb mobster accent?

  • I thought Vulcans couldn't lie.

    

  • @Undertaker18wwe well..... Strictly speaking, Spock is half human and if you watch the movies.... He can imply and exaggerate and hell knows what else so really.... Spock is the exception to any rule. SPOCK FOREVER

  • @Undertaker18wwe there is their biggest lie. :-) They prefer not to lie, but if it is logical to do so.....

  • The Boss doesn't know how to play pool.

  • LOL spock is hilar

  • The ads prove what happens when a Sister and Brother become Husband and Wife and then have 2 off spring. WOW, what a bunch of fucking losers they are eh?

  • An alien civilization that patterns itself after gangsters like Al Capone is pretty cool. It would be even cooler if they patterned themselves after gangstas like Snoop Dogg ... but maybe that would have to wait for later Star Trek episodes.

    XD

  • I think this entire crew must have been drunk while filming and/or writing this episode. Between the Boss's unusual pool game, Kirk contradicting himself in the space of 20 seconds playing cards, and the completely retarded acting of the entire cast.... this is just plain embarrassing.

  • I hate the showtime commercial with a passion.

  • Why did Spock check that girl out?

  • At 24:55 It is a good thing that Kirk's lame distraction actually worked as the gangsters even went so far as to stumble in to his quarters because of it, I guess. It was pretty funny anyway.

  • Love the double Spock/McCoy eyebrow raise at 26:29. :-) hilarious.

  • Fizzbin: The card equivalent of Calvinball.

  • LOL! Kirk, let Spock drive,

  • Kirk and Spok in zuit suits. Now there's something you don't see everyday. Kick Ass!

  • @ElenaBlackRose Totally!

  • xD I'M LAUGHING MY FUCKING HEAD OFF! HAHAHAHA Nice acting Shatner!

  • I am aware that youtube does not provide live sports, tv episodes and movies stream however, (stream episodes (DOT) net) allows it. I definitely advise you people esp CBS to go take a look!

    A Piece of the Action

  • I love Spock's comments on Kirk's driving, lol

  • My dad hated Sci-Fi. This was the only episode my Dad would watch. He loved the humor and the retro feeling.

    I miss him every time I watch this one.

  • @BondFreek Sorry for your loss. I miss my dad, and mom, too. Dad didn't care much for TV because he was raised during the radio era. However, he watched Star Trek once in a while. He didn't like McCoy because he was too mouthy. He thought Kirk should have beamed him into open space. LOL! Dads!

  • my favorite episode!

  • Oh snap. McCoy lost a sensitive item. That's about a month of getting smoked.

  • I can't fugure out when Spock is hotter--as a pirate (Mirror, Mirror), normal or as a gangster.

    He's badass.

  • Except on Tuesday.

    haha

  • This is by far The Best ST episode ever!! I have watched sooooooooooo many times and never get tired of the hilarious quotes as well as Spock lookin' soooo cute. <3 him!!!!!

  • this is indeed my favorite television broadcasted episode of the series "Star Trek" i highly recommend it.

    as spock would say

  • "the most coopertave person in this world is a dead man, if you dont keep your mouth shut your gonna be cooperatin" LOL best line in the ep.

  • This is funny as hell. Funnier than "The Trouble With Tribbles."

  • Can anyone send me a copy of the rules for playing Fizbin?

  • @x170063 re: Fizzbin rules. Did you want the part where you go unconscious picking up a card left in, or out? Just asking.

  • 47:52-48:07

    Nope, Kirk isn't looking at... anything...

    TWICE...

    Bwaha.

  • spock makes a good gangster.

  • OMG Yeah!

    I gotta get a pic.

  • lol, spock is so gangsta

  • @chicknumero1 "I would advise ya's to keep dialing Ox'mix." - Spock 42:17 -42:27 LOL

  • I love that Spock always just stands around and watches Kirk punch the crap out of people.

  • @mjboudx Hey.  Spock isn't just standing around! He is ever ready to assist his incompetent colleagues after executing the Vulcan neck pinch on his opponent in, like, the first second of combat. Not his fault they insist on doing it their own incompetent human selves.

  • @donnpatc Obviously! But I think he also secretly enjoys watching Kirk punch people, just like the rest of us.

  • @mjboudx He secretly is thinking LOLPWNED!

  • @JWLuke787 Spock actually thinks in 1337.

  • kirk is hilarious in this episode!!

  • 17:30 possibly the best Spock and McCoy scene with the most excellent Spock expressions LOL.

  • Spock and McCoy MAKE this show. lol

  • 14:25 Come on Spock! You have to know how devious your Captain is by now! Don't point out plot holes in his stories right in front of the bad guys!!!

  • Great episode :)

    Kirk and Spock trying too hard to fit in!

    Kirk trying to drive - priceless!!

  • oh my gosh Spock I love you!!!

  • @phantomtrekkie9 thats nice, but I love him MORE!!

  • I would make a rebuttle and say that I love him more, but I find that that would be pointless, seeing as how every Spock lover thinks that they love him more than the others.

  • Well, as anyone CAN say that but I truley mean it vecause he is my husband!!!!

  • i find that difficult to believe.

  • Only illogical people can't believe the truth.

  • I find that remark illogical, because I find myself to be a very logical person. Ask anyone I know.

    But I don't really want to fight with you. I would rather be disproving the insulting remarks made by my Spock-hating cousin than a fellow Spock lover.

  • I'm going to bet that your couisn like Star Wars.

  • hahaha... a logial assumption. but no, i don't think it's that. She just hates him because I love him. She doesn't even know anything about him.

  • @phantomtrekkie9 How could anyone hate Spock???

  • @hanoc101 trust me, I ask myslef that almost everyday.

    I've tried to convince her... but I think she's as gone as Hannibal Lecter.

  • So, Susan - how the kids?

  • Huh?

  • @Kabutopuppy

    Actually, vulcans CAN love, they just choose to surpress their emotions so its rare to see them actually do it... And we all love Leonard's wife because he gives Leonard happiness, and to tell you the truth, Spock loves his fans in such a way that you wouldn't be able to understand. And Spock is real because we think watch the shows and keep him ALIVE!!!!

  • @spockismyguy

    Indeed... And for the first intelligent comment I have seen in months, Live long and prosper.

  • Thank you

  • SPOCK is SUPER SEXY!!!

  • LMAO@U... Nah... I don't think so...

    I had him

    B4 U tried to have him...

    4REAL THO'!

  • No, no, no, you can ask Spock, we are soooo goign out so HA!

  • gosh both of you have issues.... Spock obviously belongs to Kirk.

    Nuff Said

  • @Vixxy You sooooo wosh. You humans are SO illogical.

  • Jojo reminds me of the Dues Ex Jojo. Y'know, a big crime boss.

  • "I would advise yous to keep dialing, Oxmynx" - I like Spock

    Also Scotty when he makes the comment about "concrete galoshes"

  • spock made me wet myself....he is soooo pretty.

  • You got that right!

  • Shatner is the man!

  • Interesting picture for end credits... In what episode did Spock dress as a Nazi?

  • Patterns of Force :)

  • Thanks.

  • It's called Patterns of Force, and it's where most people have started "slash"

  • patterns of force.

    a federation historian was trying to jump-start the economy by breaking the prime directive and interfering with the government. he thought he could control the hatered he had created, but he got drugged and eventually killed by a powerhungry follower and the enterprise had to come fix things.

  • Patterns Of Force

  • When Kirk ordered the Enterprise to fire its phasers on the men fighting in the street, how convenient that the ship did not happen to be on the other side of the planet in its orbit!!

  • @trwent

    geosynchronous orbit, lol

    look it up :P

  • You ever hear of geo-synchronous orbit? Its when something orbits a world at the same speed the world is turning, even though its moving thru space it remains in the same spot in the sky.

  • what kinda pool was he playing?!?

    and wouldnt the crew learn to hide a transmitter by now?

  • Well, they only have a concept of pool on how "The Book" describes it. if "The Book" Doesn't describe pool in detail, they guess.

    Same happened with the darts later in the episode.

  • This, "Trouble with Tribbles" and "I,Mudd" are the funnest star trek TOS episodes.

  • WOW SPOCK LOOKING HOT!!

  • Shatner's overacting during the card game..-smiles- Best stuff ever. Spock looks good in that blazer and fedora! Kirk was made to be a mob boss...A silly one but a good one...And the kid never got his cut of the deal...

  • Spock and Kirk be bringin' sexy back in those suits. ;) Can you say GQMF?

    Why couldn't McCoy get one, too?? D,:

    Also: "I'd advise you's to keep dialing, Oxmyx" and "Sawbones" = Win.

  • The original GQMFs. ;)

  • Kirk was absolutely timeless in this one :D I really loved his gangster impression haha! And I thought it was adorable that he couldn't drive a car XD

    And OMG SPOCK...his sexiness immediately melted me <3<3

  • Just Saw this Episode on tv like 5 minutes ago

    I loved it!!!

    Kirk in a suit = hot hot hot

    Spock in a suit = sexy sexy sexy!! <3

    I LOVE this episode

  • This is definitely the funniest episode!

    41:10

    You locate the man on the end of the blower

    And give him a ride to this flop!

    LOL

  • How 'bout some Fizzbin??It requires intelligence!!

  • Definitely one of my favorite episodes! Too bad McCoy didn't get to act all gangster-like. But good god.....does Spock look sooo hot!!! It's almost painful watching him....he is so irresistible! *faints*

  • Yeah, in this episode, he IS quite Spockalicious !

    Spock definitely got the mojo to get with Lt.Uhura or Yeoman Rand.... rrrrRRRRRrrrrr....

  • at around 10:12 Spock is like "get your hands off of my man!"

  • @FarrenfollowsBen XDDD Yaoi fan?

  • that just made my day. xD

  • The commercials are WAY TOO LOUD!

  • spock is ze bomb i love hem XD

  • This episode is awesometacular. I love kirk doing his best gangster impression.

  • oh this is one of my favorite episodes!!! I love "Spocko" and "Sawbones". lol, Kirk can't drive a car I love it:)

  • This episode gets me all wound up to jump right into Mafia Wars, and get "a piece of the action" gangster style.

  • Maybe Kirk should invent the biggest set of gangsters of them all on this planet-- the police.

  • I can't believe how sexy Spock-o is!

  • Back up Kirk! Spock-o is bringing sexy back!

  • how come in some episodes Spock goes to all this trouble to hide his ears but in this one nobody seems to notice? :P

  • because Oxmyx and everyone else already know that Kirk and his crew came in a starship like the USS Horizon, which visited their planet about 100 years ago. Spock does not need to hide his ears because they already know he is an alien.

    The episodes where Spock hides his ears is when they have transported to a planet with a primitive civilization that has not yet achieved warp drive, which would then allow them to be familiar with aliens like Spock.

    It;s all about the Prime Directive.

  • Thx

  • Ah, curse that Prime Directive....

  • this is so gangster i love it

  • 39:39 The Jojo Krako Barbershap Quartet!... wait, Quintet...no wait, later it's a Sextet. Whatever.

    I just noticed Kirk calls McCoy "Sawbones" at 40:15. Only time I know of that he says the original (I assume) nickname. Cool!

  • Comment removed

  • Oh, what I would have given to see McCoy in one of those suits <3 He never gets to play dress up with Kirk and Spock; it's so sad D:

  • He did one time in Patterns of Force :D

    Yup, Also Spock wore a ski hat, a helmet, a commander uniform, and got whipped shirtless in handcuffs. XD it was a fun episode...

  • why do they keep showing brooke shield's fat face on a star trek episode? maybe she's a freeken' alien or something. She looks like one anyway.

  • "I would advise yas ta keep on dialin', Okmyx" 42:19

    LOL!

  • Spock looks soooo sexy in that suit! :D

  • It still kind of bugs me that in some these episodes the aliens look exactly like humans. I know their budget was low, but they could have painted their faces purple or something! Nya, see, nya!

  • Look for Vic Tayback as Krako the ruthless gangster boss in this classic episode of Star Trek from 1968 called... A Piece of the Action. Mr. Tayback will be remembered for his great role as Mel the diner owner / cook in the classic tv series Alice from 1974-85. Great episode.

  • This episode has a semi-sequel with the 25th Anniversary NES version video game. It also includes an apperance from Mudd.

  • I loved this episode from when Uhura says "his title is... boss"

  • LOVED that episode!! Kirk's gangster talk cracked me the hell up! I just loved Scotty and Uhura's reaction to it.

  • What's driving me crazy is that there was another gangster-style episode ...possibly return of the archons, but...the point is, I've seen kirk and spock try to imitate slang before on TOS. What episode was it..?

  • Well I feel dumb.

    I remember, now, watching one of the scenes. Right.

  • Amusing, but not one of the stronger episodes.

  • " I couldn't survive without advice from my go-to people."

    You know, Brooke, I have no problem believing that.

  • @spocksvulcanpinch

    ...and that's why we kill her go-to people...

  • lol....'hos (ho's? hoes??) @ 6:30

    never picked up on that when i was a kid.

  • Spock with a Tommy Gun is a pretty funny site. But most illogical.

  • GREAT episode.

    This is the one where you really see Spock is livin' large. He uses that pinch to squeeze out four count 'em four people; looks like Superfly cubed in a suit; gets to do more Earth slang than you me and our parents; AND ranks on Kirk's driving. I'd be putting my feet up on a desk too if I'm Spock in this ep.

  • THE FUCKING ADDS ARE TOO GODDAMN LOUD

  • I Hate colgate total now. IM SWITCHING TO CREST PRO-HEALTH! ps the ads are too loud

  • Spock would make an excellent hitman/mob boss/gangster.

    Poor Bones missing out on most of the action having to babysit gangsters. He's a doctor not a babysitter.

  • Comment removed

  • Gangster Spock.

    That is all.

  • In once got a royal fisbin!!

  • Damn! Mr Spock look fine as hell in that suit!!!!
