Elaan of Troyius

[mrbrianmccarthy]

Sistah sugaaa! This woman is very ht,60's style.The feminists must've hated this episode,espicially given the way Kirk talks to "Elaan",as well as her stupid,pompous attitude.(I can just hear the comments; "Typical male concept of a strong woman;Bitchy,arrogant and needs a man to put her in her place") The problem with that attitude is,there are women exactly like "Elaan" all over the place ,espicially in the entertainment iundustry.We call them;DIVAS. hahahahah--- ; . /\

[cheeseballhaggis]

KIRK: Yes, I'm aware you're trained to resist any form of physical torture. Kirk to Spock.

SPOCK: Spock here, Captain.

KIRK: Mister Spock, it was Kryton transmitting. He refuses to talk. I'll need you to bring in the Streisand recordings.

[wayne3302264]

Security totally stinks on the Enterprise. How many times have we seen someone get into engineering and sabotage the ship.

[LincolnLLoyd]

Incredible what the mind can hold in store. There is no earthly reason why Frances Nuyen's voice should have tugged at me so with such a familiar speech pattern. First, her look was strangely familiar without cause, apart from striking me as a hybrid of Telma Hopkins (Tonly Orlando & Dawn, Gimme A Break, Family Matters) and Iman (Supermodel, David Bowie spouse). But as unlikely as it is, her unique tonal/speech type imprinted itself on me from The Joy Luck Club - a film from over 15 years ago.

[glenbren71]

fuck your ads!!!!!

[HuasoPodrido]

whip to death? sign me up!

[raverkansascity]

Kirk is a pimp in this episode

[mrbrianmccarthy]

@raverkansascity This woman reminds me of y ex girlfriend.Hahahahh----sigh.

[mrbrianmccarthy]

@raverkansascity He's my hero in this episode.Kirk is cool as hell in this one! And the poor green guy---wow,what a thankless job.

[pantherlilly003]

At 12:07 - 12:13 did you see the men in the backgournd (behind Scotty) The alien men not only do not have any pants on, they don't have on any underware either. Wow, what a view I think I'm seeing a little ass

[LT1HILLINGHOE]

If those Shazam look a likes came on board and pulled out them guns on me....I would be like, "You sum beeches better sit your asses down before you get vaporized by my 6 gun lazer ray." Then after they did I would stun them all just to let them know who the man is around there.

[ZXLNT]

Photon Torpedos Fire!!!

[DarlingNikki2]

Hey, the commericials disappeared! I demand the commercials back!!!!! How else can I watch Star Trek unless it's interrupted by Brooke Shields hawking Colgate, Chase Bank chases, etc., etc?

:D

[aguila1967]

WHOA!!! I forgot about the "spanking" scene. HAHAHAHA!!! wonder how that got by the censors at the time.

[fanbutton]

"Dont you understand warp physics yet?"

To be honest with you, I don't recall the last time I started up a matter/anti-matter reactor, so I may be rusty at this.

[hessdx1]

by driving men wild... you mean me... kirk !

[doceigen]

Luckily, man has finally evolved to a non-obsessive sexual state of being... and woot! WHAT A BABE!!

[fanbutton]

Dam that Elaen is one scheming scamming bitch! Used the captain as a pawn so she could fuck over the troians.

[YouWastesTube]

Elaan is every typical American woman, with typical American manners.

[brokenHTML]

LMFAO why does BondFreek *need* to get into an argument in every single set of comments? Dude, chill. Enjoy the hot ST babes. Life's too short to waste it with stupid arguments.

[jdskinny212]

lol, I love scotty's transporting skills. The dolman went one way and her clothes went another

[Yoshi741852]

spock is the antidote 4 the enterprise.

[tribunalfunk]

Elaan just needed to be sexed up real good and proper. That's all. Who better for the job than good old James Tiberius Kirk?

[DragonsShallRise]

You could do WAY better, Kirk!

[idcmore8]

I wish i could hang with all these actors and tell them how much what they did with these characters mean to me.

[MacUser135]

goddamn commercials

[chicknumero1]

has anyone else had issues with the video freezing?

[fanbutton]

@chicknumero1 yeah, it freezes up after the stupid commercials. Then you have to reload the whole fucking show to watch the same dam commercial that caused the show to freeze in the first place. All in all, you spend over 20 minutes in interruptions just trying to watch the show.

[SolarisBreeze57]

Hot as Elaan is of course she is "the source"

[BondFreek]

Warning!!! bealio721 is a left wing troll!!!

[CardinalSpada]

i love that spock move where he can just look down and pinch his lips after he speaks, he can get away with saying anything like that

[MacUser135]

That woman is a fucking bitch!

[BondFreek]

This episode is based on William Shakespeare the Taming of the Shrew.

[anglimited]

You don't like your quarters?

MEET THE SHUTTLECRAFT!

[ibtnm25]

She's a cunt but she is really hot!!!!

[cyberebel]

This episode should be called, "How Kirk Deals With A Bitch." God.

[StateOfTheArts]

wedding slippers 7:55 lol

[Risuchan14]

woah bitch! you can't talk that way to Captain Kirk!

[nerad137]

ok, guys, if i was a powerful warrior queen transported into a culture with 1960s attitudes towards women and made to participate (by orders of councils etc...) in a forced marriage, I would probably try to kill anyone who touched me too.

[nbcable]

To save millions of lives, where's your conscious?

[blaze9169]

Captain Kirk: "Mr. Spock, the women on your planet are logical. That's the only planet in this galaxy that can make that claim." So true.....LOL.

[DragonJoker7]

@blaze9169 no one in any place is logical XD cept vulcans

[ONEPISSEDOFFMAN]

AGREED!!! AGREED!!! AGREED!!!

[blaze9169]

I love your youtube name. I have a hunch that perhaps part or most of the reason you are one pissed off man has to do with women. If so I feel your pain.

[ONEPISSEDOFFMAN]

LOL actually Im pissed about alot of things but women aren`t very high on that list honestly lol ... Did you look up the actress that played Elaan? I did a wikipedia search on her, Part French part Vietnamese, Model/ Actress ... Worked with Bill in a play before this episode aired...Her Name is France Nuyen...she has a fascinating history actually look her up on wikipedia lol I found some nice pinups of her too ;)

[trwent]

Sulu really needs to comb his hair !!

[123wrotgirly]

now captain what is a spank?

we'll talk about that a bit later.....

any one else think..hm......

[McWiggels]

yes i thought.. hmmm.. il show her right now:)

[outlander3000]

Scotty: Captain. I know what you said about showing respect but must I have these...persons fool around with my equipment?

Kirk: Ahh...hang on Scotty. Be pleasant no matter how much it hurts. I'll be right down.

teehee

[McCoYiSaWsOmE101]

Interesting argument we've got going on here...... I will agree she's definately a bratty hoe, but she's really clever.

[jnootens]

the dylithium cystals are supposed to be kinda rare not only that but they are closer to the fuel of a car then the tires do you keep an extra full tank of gas in your car?

[123wrotgirly]

when you arent miles but lightyears away from people you might not wanna get stuck without transportation

and there are planets that mine them they arent THAT rare

[jnootens]

yeah but they travel at warp speed vs our mph so it is relativly just as "spaced" out plus plantes mine the crystals but thats like saying oil and gold arnt rare cause we mine it on earth the scale is just different is all see?

[jnootens]

kirk? distracted by a woman? noooooo i dont believe it....

[fanbutton]

@jnootens can't even watch a 52 minute video on youtube without watching 2 1/2 minutes of commercials. WTF?!

[KarateKidX]

@fanbutton

If you were to watch this on TV there would be 10 minutes of commercialls

[mrbrianmccarthy]

@jnootens The black Diva bitch reminds me of my ex girl friend---hahahahaha----sigh.

[TheTrekkie13]

wow bitchy little princess insnt she

[Waterflux]

In the beginning of the episode, Bones mentioned about men from Elaan who are pretty arrogant. I guess it would take a woman who is demanding as hell to become their princess! :P

[Waterflux]

After watching another re-run of this episode, I think the princess could use a good old-fashioned spanking. There are no other remedies out there for correcting bitchy attitude! :D

[polysmart]

She is French-Vietnamese.

[JETEYE2012]

Wouldnt they carry spare dylithium crystals if they are that important? Its like driving without a spare tire. You dont go on deep space exploratory missions, or vital diplomatic missions like delivering evil princesses, without a spare dylithium crystal.

[egreen1989]

@JETEYE2012 my theory is its more like the frame of your car, it is very important, but you just don't think its going to fail on you.

[fanbutton]

@JETEYE2012 Kurk said, fuck the bitch.  Beam her azz down to trois! I love my ship more!

[fanbutton]

@JETEYE2012 In this instance, its more the dylithium crytals are the car's engine or battery. You wouldn't really carry a spare engine or battery in the back of your car now...would you? Then again, you don't miss em til they clunk out on you.

[JETEYE2012]

@fanbutton No the crystals are NOT the engine or battery. Dont you understand warp physics yet?  Matter and anit-matter are combined and annihilated in the 'core', the energy released is 'tuned' thru the crystals before reaching the nacelles and creating a warp bubble. The crystals are as big as your fist and you could fill an entire room with them. So.... there is plenty of room for extra crystals on the enterprise and no.... they are not the engine but merely a 'part'.

[Supuhstar]

@JETEYE2012 I was just thinking that! I mean... THAT'S WHY SPOCK DIED!

[rv8wannabe]

trwent made an illogical statement indicating the need for corrective lenses. The woman in the Chase commercial is...as humans say...hot. Furthermore, she makes the Chase commercial the only one of any redeeming value.

[JuggernautJeep]

this must be where the idea for stargate came from, the costumes were a little tacky but still pretty sweet.

[trwent]

The woman in the Chase commercial looks a little like a man who had a sex change operation.

[trwent]

The Dolman was a real bitchy brat who needed a spanking real bad.

I would have loved to volunteer to be the spanker.

[earp1673]

"Mr. Spock, the women on your planet are logical; that's the only planet in this galaxy that can make that claim"--- damn that's hilarious

[Totalwar476]

23:48 kirk would love to spank her

[SarahRoss89]

But seriously! "You can't resist my love, my love." Come on! That deserves a Vulcan eyebrow-raise any day.

[Hidazuu]

oooh lol kinky. omg this is one of the if not THE funniest episodes..

"(now u listen to me...) i gave up my quarters" *while doing that head sideway-roll thing chicks do when they give beef lmao*

well theres too many good parts to even talk about em lol. but this is why uniform is a necessity...so ppl like her dont flip of unsatisfactory quarters lol

sigh. ooh this is too good.

[Hidazuu]

"u have not been dismissed!"

"may i have your permission to go?"

"you are now dismissed!"

"(lmao who the f does she think she is..) why thank you"

[annenna]

"Engines are for mechanics and menials."

Them's fighting words around Scotty!

[swiftmacho]

elaan of troyius is definitly wife material ,i love her

[stonesundial]

"Something . . . must have gone wrong with the ventilation system . . . " LOL

[alcaeus]

23:13 is classic

[jegsimmonsproduction]

she may be good lookin....but no one is above a bitch slap...especially a bitch.

[ElPayasoMalo]

I am glad that the streaming wasn't choppy and irritatimg like most videos from CBS.

nuchpu' chaH tlhInganpu'vetlh jay'! batlhHa' Haw'lI'! tuqmeyvaD tuHmoH'a' luqempu'!

[utscuba]

@ElPayasoMalo Klingon? Lol awesome! Translation?

[ElPayasoMalo]

@utscuba

nuchpu' chaH tlhInganpu'vetlh jay'! batlhHa' Haw'lI'!

tuqmeyvaD tuHmoH'a' luqempu'!

"Those Klingons are fucking cowards! They ran away dishonorably!"

The next sentence was supposed to say "They bring great shame on their houses," but it doesn't say that. Now that I have improved, I know it should be:

tuqmeychaj lutuHmoHchu'

[frankenshizzle]

lol the costumes!

[BTony21]

yeah, they must of got a budget boost for this episode. LOL

[SeeTimeRun391]

OMG! Chekov is a shape shifter. Look at the bridge shot at 4:41. I saw Spock morph into Sulu behind the helm in the episode, "Is There in Truth No Beauty." Must be some kind of space displacement at that station. Fascinating!

[EmperorJapan]

wait what? 4:41 is not at th bridge...

[SeeTimeRun391]

Whoops! The long shot of the bridge is

40:56 to 40:58. Look at the navigator.

Not Chekov. Unfortunately, there are many such mistakes in editing in other episodes just like this one.

I believe I've seen all these shows waaay too often. It's now time to toss the computer out the window and pick up a book, or go outside and play from now on.

[Bestmanme08]

Shatner dedication in great new bio (All About Jeffrey Hunter) at amazon!

[CinciVulcan]

Brooke needs her Go-To team to figure out how to tie her shoes in the morning

[CinciVulcan]

31:00 Cock Blocked

[dano122772]

petry should have been stabbed for that hair cut

[sbmrunning]

this episode showed the strength of comedy lingering in the TOS universe!

1.) Scotty and the engines, "YOU WON'T BE USING THE WARP ENGINES?, ALL THE WAY ON IMPULSE?......THAT WILL TAKE A GREAT DEAL OF TIME !......simply a moment in pride! LOL " AH YOU IN A HURRY MR.SCOTT?"

2.) if spock raises his eyebrows one more time when sitting in the captains chair, i will scream.

3.) McCoy "OH THE FAT WILL BE IN THE FIRE WHEN HE LEARNS THE BRIDE JUST TRIED TO MURDER THE GROOMS AMBASSADOR!

LOL episode!

[HappyGirl01234567890]

25:46, oh yes, I'm sure they'll talk about "the spanking" later. ;)

[HappyGirl01234567890]

Ah men in skirts! The most hostile, feared beings anywhere! :O lol

[HappyGirl01234567890]

Spock and Bones' faces at 1:20 is priceless; Spock is like, "Oh, well that's just great" and Bones is like, "I'd like to get me one of those women."

[magicianspirit]

Kirk said to the effect that when people get to know each other, prejudice ends. That's true, if it really is prejudice--that is, pre-judging." If the feelings are based on long experience, however, proximity doesn't ease bad feelings, it makes them worse.

[yamihoole]

Omg....Petri is the same actor as Caligula from that movie The Robe! wow...

[worldjustsucks]

you seem to have decided to me, You called her your ex :p

[worldjustsucks]

Kirk Taming the Shrew? Muhahahaha

Love It!! thanks for the Vid!!!

[Thatpup16]

This is the 60th episode I've watched. I now take mass quantities of Viagra, Tangaria, Vlassic Pickels, and my new dentist is named Joyce. I also developed the habit of turning up the volume during commercials at home on TV.

[worldjustsucks]

lmao! Gotta Love Star Trek!!!

[yogafan6500]

I love the part i which the tears of Elaan touched Kirk's hand and he gets horny on her. She's the type of girl that i like sexy and hot tempered like Angelina Jolie & Sasha Grey. After all Kirk gets all the chicks better than Picard and all the other male captains of the Star Trek franchise.

[trwent]

@yogafan6500 Well, Pike did okay too.  You know, he got a girl who looked hot but was really just an illusion. Or he could have had #1 (the dark-haired brainy gal who bore striking resembalance to nurse Christine Chapel) OR he could have had the horny hot redhead who has wanted to bang him for a long time.

[asbte]

i wonder what study colgate did that led them to put all their commercials on this.

[phantomphiddler5]

geez what a brat she is!!! she's not nice AT ALL

[trwent]

Maybe not nice, but definitely HOT!!

[phantomphiddler5]

shes not that hot she's just stupid and bratty

[trwent]

She is bratty but NOT stupid. She finally comes to her senses when she tells Kirk that she does not know how to get people to like her.

And she IS hot.

[phantomphiddler5]

if she were smart, she would know that people dont like her because of her bad attitude. its good that she changed at the end though.

and its kinda weird for me to call her hot, cuz im a girl, so ill leave that decision to you

[piscean60]

honey, she's not coming to her senses, she's manipulating him with her tears and feminine charms!

she knows exactly what she's doing!

[SHADOWfang5]

i wonder if there is a space condom.............

[StarTronAlpha]

Ambassador: "Friction must be kept at a minimum."

Kirk: "Yes, that I can understand." We sure know.

[TheLastDuellist]

Lol at 30:35

Kirk got caught in his "affair" by Spock and McCoy.

[mbleft]

Spank me Captain !!

[RacerFishy]

She looks like Cleopatra a bit.

[oxymomo]

I hope all of Brooke Shields' teeth fall out!

[yougotmefriend]

hahahaha that caught me off guard

[yogafan6500]

I agree with you on that pal. after all she starred inn many of those godawful bob hope specials of the 80's.

[Muzzlewump]

So far, I like her the most out of Kirk's babes... she is a down a** chick! Fine too.

"What's that ancient Earth custom... Spanking?"

[p3eta]

Not actually an 'interracial couple' as has been sujested earlier.....

Kirk just did what he always does (got off with the best looking woman in the episode) Nothing more nothing less.

Nothing new to see here people.. move along... move along...

[eddtoro]

She's not like the other women of Star Trek. She throws knives, yells, breaks things, treats people like trash, stabs people in the back......I like her.

[eddtoro]

who is this actress. she's really good.

[eddtoro]

In an ideal world, we'd celebrate when a woman is bright and intelligent. A woman who is sharp and uses her brain. Instead, we focus on beauty, instead of character. Beauty fades.

[himweproclaim]

Spoiled rotten brat!

[101wuzup1]

im commenting as i go but so far this girl is a real bitch!

[altops]

they seem to never have spare dilithium crystals on hand?

[brianesams]

this Trek Girl was the most beautiful of all.

[sunnchilde]

Oh I don't know. That Orian slave girl was pretty hot.

[brianesams]

yeah but at least its not another white girl Kirk gets interested in. this dark skinned, exotic beauty IS one of the hottest women that was featured on this show. i love the Egyptian vibe. im tired of all the blondes on this show. at least we have Uhura...mmmm she is a knockout!

[brianesams]

indeed, lol. i guess its because i live in a Metro city so i dont really see a lotta strictly white couples. im white but i would probably never date a white girl. not my type at all. you are right though, Uhura is twice...no THRICE as beautiful as this woman.

[fadethetrade]

Nahh,dark cracks and mud grey clits turn me off!

[runninghorsesforever]

Note to self: Never wear a red shirt on the Star Trek set

[huskersquaredude]

kirk is such a player!!!

haha and isnt that a romulan war ship??

[ridelyelizabethgrace]

My God, have you ever thought about all the STD`s Kirk gets.

I can see him coming in the middle of the night to McCoy`s office looking all embarrassed:

"Bones, I need another pill for Gonorrhea."

'Again, Jim?"

bahahaha...it makes me laugh.

[Catalina650013]

But in the Rodenberry's future, STD's have been eradicated, silly!

[ridelyelizabethgrace]

but for kirk I think he would make an exception

[sunnchilde]

You'd think that just one old D-9 crusier wouldn't scare them all that badly.

[happykitty11]

even when they're on the ship, the redshirts die!!

[ridelyelizabethgrace]

its pretty safe to say that even when ever there is a redshirt, they die, regardless of where we see them. its really quite funny actually.

[SteveDurnin]

"Are you in a hurry, Scotty?!"

[bigperm53216]

LOL, I see Kirk has been keepin his pimp hand strong!!! That's why Kirk is better, he's an old skool pimp.

[GasSnake2003]

I was expecting something a bit more threatening, not an ugly chick in a cardboard bikini. But that's the original series for you =P

[DedyPhlincke]

It's not a cardboard bikini.... it's a Space Bikini!

[sars0928]

Lol, I'm a Spock girl, but I actually like Kirk in this ep.

[guinivereXbloodgood]

That's right Jim, put that bitch in her place.

And according to him, I must be a Vulcan woman. Interesting.

[SiennaElderly]

"Mr. Spock, the women on your planet are logical. That's the only planet in this galaxy that can make that claim."

Kirk Win.

[stuneck]

Notice the Hairdrier in the back of the room at 17:32

[LETHLSS]

a female obama

[cassandra5322]

god that lady s really terrible! how can she be tolerable?

[gaiuskaiser]

probably gives great head

[biscoito1r]

Kirk ordered the destruction of the Enterprise, so I guess he doesn't love her that much.

[MuteLove]

In order to keep it from the dirty Klingons.

[brightling1uk]

Elaan has a Black esque to her look and attitude

[d3sst]

more asian

[orkutster]

did Kirk have sex with Elaan? or did they just kiss?

[MuteLove]

Yes, but because of the censorship laws in the 60's they couldn't show it, they had to just hint at it.

[ridelyelizabethgrace]

I`m pretty sure they had sex, they just didn`t show it, but it`s implied.

[burntfish44]

kirk is running all over the ship this episode...

[dontcallmesurely]

23:05

"Mr. Spock, the women on your planet are logical. That's the only planet in this galaxy that can make that claim."

Oh SNAP!!!
