Classic Trek Quotes:
McCoy: "It's dead, Jim." - the first episode McCoy utters this "dead" line, though it's in reference to an alien dog here; usually it's about a crewman or other human.



Back to the bottle again Captain...?

The Enemy Within - episode #5 Empty original Enemy Within

Post  BoG Sun Dec 26, 2010 5:46 pm

Here's some background information on The Enemy Within...  Richard Matheson wrote the script and his original ending was even more provocative that the one filmed with Spock & Rand! As is well known, in the finished episode Spock hinted to Rand at the end that she might have liked some of the brutal Kirk's attentions and Rand acted like a team player in response, rather than slapping the Vulcan. Here's the original script:
MATHESON'S ORIGINAL ENDING

In Sickbay McCoy tells Kirk not to worry about the crew finding out about his dark side:

McCOY
The same thing would have happened to any one of us
who'd gone through the Transporter at that particular
time.  We all have an enemy within.
(beat; smiling)
It's the human condition.

           Kirk smiles back and the doctor pats his arm, leaves to help his patients.  Kirk starts for the corridor.

           INT. BRIDGE - MOVING SHOT - CLOSE ON KIRK

           As he emerges from the elevator and moves to Mr. Spock who is at his customary place at the Library-Computer station.

           SPOCK
           Captain.

           KIRK
           I want to thank you, Mr. Spock.
           I couldn't have made it without you.

           SPOCK
           (nods once)
           What will you tell the crew?

           KIRK
           That the impostor was put back-
           (pause; smiling)
           - where he belongs.

           JANICE'S VOICE
           To die, Captain?

           INCLUDING JANICE

           JANICE
           The... "impostor" told me what
           really happened.

           KIRK
           (a little stunned)
           Oh?

           JANICE
           And I just wanted to say that I
           hope he hasn't died.

           KIRK
           (still off balance)
           Why?

           JANICE
           Because he has some very interesting qualities.

           She turns away, smiling cooly.  Kirk stares after, then looks at Spock who clears his throat and moves off.  Repressing a smile, Kirk goes to his chair, sits.  Briefly, he savors the moment, then flicks on his Communicator.

           KIRK
           (with full authority)
           This is the Captain speaking.

           EXT. SPACE - FULL SHOT - U.S.S. ENTERPRISE

           As it moves off into the night of stars.

           FADE OUT.

           THE END
It's beginning to look to me that they changed it to make Spock a bit of a villain so as not to make Rand appear like a lady really into S&M abuse and so on. Here's the site from where I sourced this: ENEMY WITHIN BACKGROUND MATERIAL

Finally, here's a link to a YouTube video which re-edits scenes from The Enemy Within into proper order:


It has also come to light that some scenes in the finished version of the episode were edited into a slightly wrong order. For example, I always thought there was something off about that scene where Kirk is told of the transporter problem and "if this should happen to a man..." and Kirk starts to say "Oh my G.." - the article link above and the YouTube video explain why it seems off.
