My all-time favorite Star Trek scene was in Trouble with Tribbles. Scotty and company were standing tall in front of Captain Kirk, who was demanding to know who started a fist fight with the Klingons on the space station, and why. Kirk finally focuses his quetioning on Scotty who relates how the Klingons had insulted his Captain. "So that's when you hit him" Kirk says rhetorically. "No sir, we should all be big enough to take a few insults" is how Scotty answered. "So when DID you hit him?" demands Kirk. "Well Captain, they called the Enterprise a garbage scow..." Scotty was my favorite, too. Rest in peace, Scotty.
