** The Klingons use a new weapon to cripple the ''Enterprise'' and prepare it for boarding. So Kirk initiates "Emergency Defense Plan B": [[spoiler:Beam a bunch of huge tribbles onto the Klingon ship. [[CrazyEnoughToWork The tribbles cover the Klingon transporters and generally raise havoc, making the move very effective.]]]] Perhaps the funnier part? It was Spock's idea.

** The siren's song sent out by the planet renders the men into helpless fools, including Mr. Scott, currently in command of the Enterprise. Uhura matter-of-fact informs Scotty that she is taking command, and he cheerfully agrees that it sounds like a wonderful idea, obviously too subdued by the song to care one jot either way.

** The Enterprise crew's Oh,No...NotAgain! reactions when they realize who they've rescued, and more importantly, what he has brought aboard with him. Kirk looks like he's considering the possibility of just letting the Klingons have the "general trader and interstellar nuisance."
* Everyone's WTF reactions when, in "Time Trap", Spock starts acting chummy with the Klingons, with handshakes and stuff. The Enterprise team can only sheepishly apologize, and the Klingon team leans towards the conclusion that the time trap barrier/stress has messed with his hybrid mental makeup (which would be seriously bad news, as it is his calculations that their escape plan hinges on). Of course, this was part of the setup: Spock was using touch telepathy to divine the Klingon's plan, beyond escaping.
