Discard the Warp drive and Nascelles if necessary
5 August 2006 | by (United Kingdom) – See all my reviews

Kirk tells Scotty to do this- indicating the possibility of separating the saucer section

This never happened in the Classic series.

I wonder if this is the only such reference in the Classic series?

I have attempted Google searches

I have not been able to come up with any prior references to this

II only noticed it in a re-run on British TV.

Surely some other nerd will have seen it before ?? !!

David Soul makes a guest appearance He does a mean demonstration of smashing a head using a melon (note the presence of Melons and sun tans in paradise!)
