Star Trek TOS S2E15, The Trouble With Tribbles.

AKA Jim being sexy in his green wrap and Spock trying not to notice:

Bonus: 

Spock being one of the few reasons Jim Kirk smiles during the entirety of The Trouble With Tribbles (AKA Jim Kirk's tailor made day from hell™):

SPOCK: (stroking a tribble) “A most curious creature, Captain. Its trilling seems to have a tranquillizing effect on the human nervous system. Fortunately, of course, I am . . .  immune to its effect.”

*Clearly not immune to it’s affect.*

*Oh, at all.*

I love how often Spock is the bright spot in this otherwise flaming trash heap of a day for Jim Kirk (up until it works out in the end. To be a fly on the wall when the Tribbles beamed over to the Klingon ships.)

What if in the upcoming Strange New Worlds Musical episode, we suddenly see Paul Wesley as Kirk disappearing into a room.

He abruptly reappears, walking out in a bowtie tux.

He has a stool and a microphone in hand.

He puts down the stool and promptly sits upon it.

He snatches out a "jazz cigarette", lights it, takes a generous drag, and begins:

"Packed my bag last night, pre-flight; zero hour, 9 am . . .

and I'm going to be high as a kite by then . . . "

The USS Enterprise crew:

*Whispering* "Maybe if we don't look he'll stop . . ."

"Captain, do something. Shut it down!"

Meanwhile, Spock:

Petition to rename Star Trek III into Star Trek III: The Search for Husband

100% agreed, couldn't agree more.

In fact

Yeah, that looks correct.

For story writing and Star Trek canon timeline purposes I was perusing the official Star Trek website and the character biographies.

Talk came up about a second five year mission set after TMP.

Apparently there was a second five year mission even though we didn't get to see it on screen.

Phase II? Novels? Was I mixing it up with something? I admit I was boggled as to whether it was real or hearsay.

Anyway, research ensued.

Wait what?

Am I crazy?

Have I missed some posts? Years? Hot deets?

Have we been talking about this legendary hush hush second five year mission this whole time, or am I a thick dunce just rolling in late to this party here?

Sure enough upon checking:

Wtf? Genuinely asking because I feel like we don't talk about this 2nd five year mission much albeit being canonically mentioned in Kirk's official Star Trek page.

How was I today years old?!

Tag me in your posts, give me the deets, the tea, any info you have about this second five year mission.

Because I am gooped, gagged, the wig is in orbit.

Have . . . How . . . How have I not heard about this? Should I be embarrassed?

What happened on that second five year mission? Inquiring minds need to know.

And even better, creative minds, fill in the gaps.

When you have so many photos of James T. Kirk on your phone that Google makes a memories reel of him and prompts you to tag the photo of your reoccuring beloved family member:

I AM --

Like YES. I have as many photos of James T. Kirk as I do my family members. He's family.

MCCOY: Spock, what happened down there? The girl? The wedding?

SPOCK: Ah, yes, the girl. Most interesting. It must have been the combat. When I thought I had killed the captain, I found I had lost all interest in T'Pring. The madness was gone.

Um, yeah. Sure.

Must've been the "combat."

I love that this is a thing that happened.

I mean, can you imagine how awesome it was at the Spock parade?

Everybody there loves Spock as much as we do. Like:

Homeboy looking like he just saw the Lord.

Hard mood if you just saw Spock drive by in a convertible. Same, kid. Same.
