Chief Engineer Montgomery "Scotty" Scott - TOS season 1

[@merlin5by533]

"Scotty" did more to boost engineering as a profession than anything on TV. I became an Engineer because of him. Godspeed, James Doohan, and may your path be in the light.

I recall an interview with Doohan later in life. He'd basically retired to the convention circuit and talked about how much he enjoyed it. He got to travel for free, and was always surrounded by people who loved him, and he got to see firsthand that his legacy had been one of entertainment and inspiration. RIP James Doohan.

I always liked the scene where he tells Kirk he didn’t start fighting Klingons because of wildly insulting his Captain, but because they called the Enterprise garbage!

[@francisdhomer5910]

They insulted his child. I honestly believe it wasn't so much an insult to him but a parents response to an insult to his child

[@carminemurray6624]

Actual quote: " KORAX: Of course, I'd say that Captain Kirk deserves his ship. We like the Enterprise. We, we really do. That sagging old rust bucket is designed like a garbage scow. Half the quadrant knows it. That's why they're learning to speak Klingonese. CHEKOV: Mister Scott! SCOTT: Laddie, don't you think you should rephrase that? KORAX: You're right, I should. I didn't mean to say that the Enterprise should be hauling garbage. I meant to say that it should be hauled away as garbage." That is a real insult, likely a script error.

[@bernardoconnor1502]

It's not Season One, but one of the best Scotty moment's was in Season 3's "The Enterprise Incident" when he was in command and the Romulan commander told him to surrender and follow them. "This is Lieutenant Commander Scott. The Enterprise takes no orders, except those of Captain Kirk. And we will stay right here until he returns. And if you you make any attempt to board or commandeer the Enterprise, it will be blown to bits along with as many of you as we can take with us."

[@Alvin-1138]

On several occasions Scotty was ready and willing to flush his Starfleet career down the tubes, to save, or remain loyal to the Capt. and Crew! Now that I think about it, he'd be offended that I considered any other action 🙂.

[@BladeOfLight16]

Not just loyalty. Responsibility and sensibility. They'd been fired upon. Only an idiot would suddenly believe they're all friends when their captain and first officer are missing. Scotty decided it was too great a risk to everyone on that ship.

[@spockvskhan4561]

That is one reason that Star Trek has found success. All crew members ready to give their life for the ship and crew mates. A shame in 2019 we have learned nothing. Dogs and Vulcans are more loyal than humans.

[@watchgoose]

I cringed when that guy said the mission was more important than the ship, expecting Scotty to go ballistic.

[@Kenji314159]

Also, Scotty saved the life of everyone on board with this decision. The directive was to destroy the USS Enterprise as soon as it lowered its shields.

[@irpat54]

One of the best things about Star Trek TOS was the character development and it seemed every actor was perfectly typecast for the role they played. Also, the comedic relief was superiour. As you all likely know, James Doohan very much enjoyed reading technical manuals on his own time, not for the show but just because he enjoyed it.

Want more of Doohan's range? Check out The Animated Series (TAS). Just about every other voice is his. He also dubbed some on TOS.
