Spock mentions that Balok (or the puppet version they first saw) reminded him of his father. I wonder if this is another indication (along with something Mudd said a few episodes back) that as originally intended, full-blooded Vulcans would look decidedly more alien. | Spock mentions that Balok (or the puppet version they first saw) reminded him of his father.

(First watched 2009-01-something) I know it's a Future 60s, but boy, they couldn't do much for Pike. His mind's perfectly fine but he's got a disfigured body... I think we could do a better job NOW at helping him communicate than a lame wheelchair and the ability to control a single beeping light. | |||

(First watched 2009-01-21) So there really was no additional twist at the end. Kirk was like "They wanted a race of slaves!" and Spock was all "No just wait there's more!", but that's pretty much it. It's just that Spock decided that forcing Pike to go back into the awesome cage he'd previously railed against was worth risking his career and the death penalty for. And the fine folks at Starfleet seemed to agree with him, even when they hadn't heard his explanation? If it wasn't that we know there are no further consequences, I'd think that was just a faked message, too. | |||
So the Pike bit ended pretty much as I predicted. Almost all of The Cage bits were accurate to their original form, except the part that was originally supposed to be a totally-fake Pike was now intended to be a partially-fake Pike, the imaginary healthy version of the shitty version that went down. | |||
So I wonder what's supposed to have happened after that? Now that the Talosians have the male and female they wanted, do they actually go about breeding them? Or considering they're both victims of horrible accidents are they infertile? | |||
