** Janice Rand enters Kirk's quarters and gives him a new shirt from the cupboard. Kirk takes it, orders Janice to leave, and calls the bridge to ask Spock about the status of Balok's cube.
** Sulu, at the helm station on the bridge, tells Kirk (with Harrison and Hadley in the background) about how he, in his childhood, had tried to emulate the facial expressions of Oriental villains in movies about the time of "the Sino-Western trouble".
** A conversation between Kirk, [=McCoy=] and Dave Bailey in a turbolift, as they're on their way to board Balok's pilot vessel.

* FirstAppearance: If you go by production order, this is the debut of Dr. [=McCoy=], Lt. Uhura and Yeoman Rand.
* MissingTrailerScene: A line from Big Balok, "We grant you one minute," appears in the preview-trailer, to which Sulu reacts "I knew he would." In the finished product, Balok's line is not heard (apparently lost due to a dubbing editor's mistake), making it unclear what Sulu is talking about.
* ThrowItIn: Creator/LeonardNimoy's "Fascinating", which helped him refine the character and gave him a catchphrase.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The final draft of this script, dated 3 May 1966, is quite different from the aired version:
** The character of Uhura is not present. Dave Bailey is the communications officer, and he does not "flip out" as he does in the aired episode.
** Lieutenant Ken Easton is the navigator.
** Many bits of character-building are also absent. There are no flypaper, chess or poker analogies - Kirk simply decides to bluff Balok out of the blue.
** The planet where Balok intends to imprison the Enterprise crew is named Carpi.
** There is also no reference in this draft to: Kirk's salad; Curiosity on Spock's part as to what Balok looks like - Balok initiates visual contact with the Enterprise; and Spock's opinion that Balok reminds him of his father or Scotty's retort.
