[@Emper0rH0rde]

The genius of it was it wasn't preachy. Star Trek didn't resonate because it wagged its finger at the audience and said "Racism is bad. Don't be racist," like the crap that passes for social commentary today. Star Trek resonated because it bypassed all that stuff, and merely *showed* humans of different ethnicities working together and getting along. Roddenberry showed everybody what they already knew to be true, and that was the genius of his message.

Good will always triumph over evil. This episode proved that.

[@Shilara]

i love how they're telling the kids it's all right. Granted they mean "It's Ok you are expressing your emotions and therefore can heal in time," but if you think about it for a sec, it seems like, "It's all right, your parents are dead, but it's all right," with bright cheerful smiles. Were I one of those children, I suspect I would have said, "My family's gone, what exactly about this situation is all right?!" And I'm saying this as a lover of Star Trek & Bones, especially. It's weirdly funny.

[@allenlea8310]

Indeed, I was thinking that as well. I have watched this episode numerous times but only now, after all these years, I realize how tragic and traumatic this would be for those children. Not only for the loss of their parents, but the gradual awareness (and crushing guilt) of the children’s’ complicity in their parents’ death. 😢

[@johnnyev1]

Damn it Jim, this is a starship, not a day care center!

[@QuarrellaDeVil]

We'll literally hear from the leader of the children, Craig Hundley (aka Huxley), in a few years, as his invention, the blaster beam, is heard in Star Trek: The Motion Picture and all kinds of SF movies in the 80s.

The happy music they play is a HUGE 60s trope for children. They used that in the Andy Griffith Show.

Kids use that tune with taunts "nanny nanny boo-boo" and it's the tune of the song "ring around the rosies" (which has its origin in the plague, by the way) - it's a quintessential kid melody. That's why the shows used it.

I know these things because I was homeless for thirty years.

If you are going to make a career of panhandling go south better weather and go to the more religious towns(the ones with the most churches) better patronage and do not have a pet especially a dog 🐕 it is a real turn-off. And always say “God Bless You” as if you really mean even when they don’t give you anything, if they are truly religious you will make them feel guilty and religious people have been brainwashed to despise feeling guilty.
