    Summary

    Jim Kirk’s holiday is going to suck. That doesn’t mean it has to suck for his two best friends who are finally kinda sorta almost friends with each other. Too bad neither of them wants anything to do with Christmas cheer.

    OR

    The one where Jim gives Bones and Spock a not at all suspicious shore leave in a cabin for Christmas.

    Summary

    In one of his letters to Gene Rodenberry, writer Theodore Sturgeon criticized the constant rewrites of his material. He referred to the revision of the end of “Shore Leave”, where Dr. McCoy is surrounded by half-naked showgirls, as a “first-order Vulgarism”. He went on to give an example of a third-order Vulgarism:

    “The whimsical friction between Bones and Spock is brought to a head by McCoy’s diagnosis that the Vulcanian needs a prostate massage, and must have it. But Spock’s prostate is not near his stern, but his sternum, or breastbone. So we have MED CU McCoy rolling up the sleeve of his tunic, not to the elbow, but to the shoulder.”

    So what if television in the 60’s wasn’t full of a bunch of cowards?
