Funny / Star Trek S2 E17 "A Piece of the Action"

Go To

  • Basically the whole damn episode.
    • William Shatner's clearly having so much fun acting like Kirk acting like an old-time gangster, including at one point when he calls the Enterprise:
      Kirk: Hello Scotty, dis is Koik.
    • Leonard Nimoy eventually joins in as well.
      Spock I would advise youse ta keep dialin', Oxmyx.
    • Fizzbin. Just... Fizzbin.note 
    • Kirk's attempt at driving a car. Doubly so with Spock's line about how he's a great starship captain, but no taxi driver.
    • Spock and Bones have a fun little scene together when they take over a radio station, as McCoy snarks "helpfully" while Spock figures things out.
  • Scotty tries his hand at using gangster slang to intimidate a captured Krako, only for Krako to correct his error in mild annoyance.
    Scotty: You mind your place, mister, or you'll be wearing concrete galoshes.
    Krako: You mean "cement overshoes"?
    Scotty: Er, aye.
