Space is a place of martial arts, and only the weak can play the emotional card. It is pitiful to deceive trust. Most boxers rely on strength to compete for the world.
Therefore, any enemies who play emotional cards in Star Trek are hateful. Because they can kill one or the other when facing the weak, but only begging for mercy when facing the strong.
In the first episode, the water buffalo pretending to be the doctor’s ex-wife is like this. In order to obtain salt, it is as crazy as a drug addict.
Follow the food delivery person, want to take the opportunity to get the salt in the bottle. Kill the single person and suck out all the salt in the body. When he was finally discovered, he even burst into tears and begged the doctor for mercy.
The water buffalo can obtain salt from the Federation through an agreement, but it just wants to play a difficult game in which life is not taken seriously, but in the end it is killed. What a pity!
Therefore, when facing a high-level civilization with a big fist, the Enterprising never begs for mercy. Instead, it uses methods such as sending peace signals and finding loopholes in the opponent to gain first-line vitality and establish a peaceful relationship.
In the tenth episode, the small, warning-only space buoys launched by the First Federation made the Enterprise look like an enemy.
When facing the crisis of being destroyed, Kirk thought of an empty city plan and bet the other party cherish life more: the
earth’s ships are equipped with a substance called Kabomet, which will fight back and be destroyed in any destructive attack. Opposing ship.
The opponent's fleet was not only deterred, but also deliberately sent a distress signal to attract Kirk to the rescue. The two eventually reached a friendly agreement on cultural exchanges.
In the 17th episode, the alien boy wants to keep the crew and play with him the trial and duel game 900 years ago.
In addition to being forced to participate in games, Kirk is always looking for breakthroughs, such as successfully cutting off the opponent's energy source, sacrificing himself in exchange for an enterprising life, and suggesting that hanging is too boring to change the game.
After trying every means to increase the chance of survival, the little boy's parents appeared and took the little boy away.
In the 18th episode, the Enterprise chased the invaders into another galaxy. As a result, they were intercepted by the highly developed Metronians and placed Kirk and the invader Captain on the same planet to let them kill each other. Dead each other.
When Kirk was lucky enough to win and let off the invader captain, the Midrons said they could be friends with the earthlings.
2. Superpowers must die. After
ordinary people have superpowers, the ending is often not a comedy, but a tragedy.
Because it is difficult to control not to use it, especially when you feel offended.
In the second episode, Charlie, a human boy, was raised by the Sotaths and was also given superpowers. Under the guidance of the crew, he thought he could be polite and restrained from not using it. But soon I couldn't help it.
He disliked the Star of the Heart for not asking him enough and ruined the Star of the Heart; he couldn't beat Spock in chess and transformed the chess; if the male crew member laughed at him, he let him disappear; the female crew member greeted him, but he changed her Cheng Lizard...
He is a giant giant baby, whenever there is a trace of dissatisfaction, he will kill him.
He even had no patience for love, and the clerk refused to agree to fall in love with him, so he turned his face immediately. Like other people, let the clerk disappear, as if the sweet words had never existed before.
Finally, when the Sotathians wanted to take Charlie away, and Charlie asked for help, no one on the boat responded to his distress signal.
In the third episode, one of Kirk's best friends accidentally acquired superpowers and began to feel that humans are imperfect creatures and need to be destroyed. Kirk eventually had to kill him.
In episode 22, Khan, the genetically modified man, made his debut. Kirk awakened Khan and his crew from space.
Khan, who was accustomed to being a tyrant, avenged his grudge, wanted to kill Kirk, and took the command of the Enterprise.
3. Unreliable machines.
Remember Dr. McCoy's reluctance to be teleported. This is not sensational, but because even more reliable machines will cause many unreliable accidents.
In the fifth episode, the transmitter malfunctioned, and Captain Kirk was split into two. The positive character was one person, and the dark character formed another.
The dark personality Kirk did what the positive Kirk always wanted to do but couldn't do: kiss the clerk forcibly, drink a whole bottle of brandy, and ignore others and just take care of himself.
Although Dark Kirk is part of Kirk, the two were fortunately merged into one, and Kirk knew himself better. But this kind of transmission failure, no one wants to do it again.
In the 19th episode, due to too much recoil, the Enterprise was accidentally involved in the space-time tunnel, traversed back to the earth in the 1960s, and completed a thrilling journey.
In the 21st episode, the creator is already dead, and Landru is just a machine.
In the case of generating consciousness, it mistakenly understood the original intention of Landreu's guardianship as assimilation, which caused the entire planet to fall into the high pressure of everyone's own danger.
In the 28th episode, Dr. McCoy, who was mad by accidentally injecting reagents, unconsciously penetrated the gate of time and space, and the entire human history was changed, and the Enterprise no longer existed.
Kirk and Spock had to jump into the gate of time to find McCoy before he changed history.
In this episode, Kirk fell in love with a local beauty, but because he couldn't change history, he watched her die under the tires of a car.
Compared with the malfunction of the machine, the 23rd episode of using machine warfare to destroy lives is even more creepy.
The two hostile forces reached an agreement 500 years ago to replace real wars with computer wars. People who died in computer wars would automatically go to the resolver to report to the god of death.
For 500 years, no one on both sides has violated this anti-human order because they want to avoid real war.
The highest order of the Federal Fleet is not to interfere with the order of life on other planets, but this time, Kirk couldn't bear it.
After destroying the resolver and the combat computer, the two sides unexpectedly chose peace. Just as the lack of cash encourages people to spend more, a smoke-free war will only make people look down on life.
4. Be careful of scientists
In space, scientists with high IQ often cause large-scale destruction.
In episode 7, Dr. Kirby, the founder of archaeological medicine, turned himself into a robot in order to survive.
For the new life form, the Federation was originally supportive, but Dr. Kirby was uncomfortable with his new identity. He wanted to evolve all human beings into robots without thinking.
To this end, he did not hesitate to kill everyone, and also copied a new Kirk, trying to replace the real Kirk to complete the task, but fortunately he was recognized by Spock.
In the eighth episode, a certain M-class planetary scientist, in order to prolong human life, actually invented a virus that allows children to grow up for only one month every 100 years, but kills adults in a short time.
In the 9th episode, Adams, a doctor of psychiatry, actually invented a "nerve neutralizer" that can eliminate the memory of criminals and implant any thoughts!
With this invention, Adams created a peaceful and orderly criminal exile paradise with no opposition, and received federal awards until he tortured his opponents and was investigated by Kirk.
5. Perfect is imperfect In
episodes 11-12, in order to send the former captain of the Enterprise Pike to the planet of Talos, Spock not only violated the military order, but also performed a perfect scene with the Talos and successfully opened the Enterprise. To the destination.
After arriving at the destination, Kirk discovered that the general who boarded the ship with him had disappeared. It turned out that the general was also an illusion created by the Taros, just to distract Kirk and prevent him from discovering the truth too early.
In the fifteenth episode, they enter a planet more beautiful than the earth to rest, and the crew finds that rabbits, Don Quixote, tigers and other inexplicable things suddenly appear in front of them.
It turns out that this planet is designed to be entertained, and its flaw is that the created people or things will not exist for a long time.
In episode 24, the health of all the inhabitants of the planet is perfect, but all of this is due to the tiny spores!
Serious, rational, Spock, who never talks about emotions, fell in love with a girl under the influence of Spore.
Not only gave up the task for her, but also hung on the tree and laughed constantly! It's like changing someone!
6. Revenge is okay, but you are not allowed to hurt the innocent
Although it is not stated clearly, the hidden morality of the Star Federation can be revenge, but it is not allowed to hurt the innocent.
In the thirteenth episode, Cordos, who had slaughtered 40 million people, never thought that his daughter actually killed 7 innocent people for him.
He originally thought that although his hands were full of blood, he never hurt his daughter. Unfortunately, his daughter even buried his last innocence, so he has nothing left.
In episode 14, Kirk said to the navigators who died in the war with Romulan: "This is their war, not yours." The
hidden meaning is that revenge is not a reason for wanton venting and attack.
In the 20th episode, Finney used the contradiction with Kirk to not only successfully frame Kirk to the military court, but also attempted to bury him with more than 400 lives on the Enterprise.
After the incident was exposed, the generals on the ship were very guilty of Kirk and vowed to coexist and die with the Enterprise.
