I adore these things, so I thought I'd make some using Despair.com's D.I.Y. parody motivator generator (HERE). Meh, why not...
These prolly suck too, but I tried damnit! This is what happens when I have three cokes, a Red Bull and a bag of chips within an hour....



  Oh Charlie X, how I love thee
 Well, who else CAN save a ship...?

• "Court Martial" was a story published in the September 1953 issue of Galaxy, and was written by Samuel T. Cogley. At least it is according to DS9's "Far Beyond the Stars." The cover art is a reuse of the original matte painting of Starbase 11 with a rocket added to the background (see link).
• The reference that sound has been amplified "on the order of one to the fourth power" means, of course, that sound has been amplified by 1⁴. 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 = 1, so the sound would not have been amplified. Kirk may have meant "ten to the fourth," which would be 10,000 times.
• The script makes more sense out of Jame's change of attitude toward Kirk. When reading her father's old letters, his attitude makes her come to believe he might pull a stunt like this to get back at Kirk.
• A scene, filmed but cut, had Finney telling Kirk where he sabotaged the ship. The cutting of the scene necessitated Kirk's expository voice-over at the end.
• Elisha Cook, Jr. had great difficulty remembering his lines. Sam Cogley's speech was pieced together with editing.
• This is the first time we see Starfleet dress uniforms.
• All Starfleet crew in the bar are seen with Enterprise arrowhead insignia. This is before the series established that all other ships have their own unique insignia.
• Areel Shaw wears the only female dress uniform seen in the series. It has gold braids on the cuffs as well as a breast patch.
• Although Finney is referred to as a lieutenant commander throughout the episode, when he finally appears, his braiding identifies him as a commander. Ditto with Spock, who will be referred to as Lt. Commander several more times until he finally gets recognition (from Vulcan Space Central, of course) as Commander Spock in Amok Time.
• This is the last episode in which the sound of the engines could be heard during fly-bys, although the sound has been added in all other episodes for the DVD releases.
• This is the first time the terms "Starfleet" and "Starfleet Command" are used.
• This is TOS's first trip to a Federation starbase.
• The relationship between Kirk and Shaw is echoed in TNG's "The Measure of a Man" between Picard and JAG Phillipa Louvois.
• Commodore Stone is the highest-ranking African-American to appear in the original series.

• Star Trek was teetering on the brink of cancellation, and Roddenberry used this episode as a "sleeper pilot" in the hope of getting a new show going for the fall season. Of course, the show didn't sell.
• The first draft had the crew watching an episode of "Bonanza" on the viewscreen.
• Gary Seven, along with the Vians ("The Empath") is one of the few humanoids immune to a Vulcan nerve peinch.
• This is the only episode in which time travel is considered routine, likely before the creation of the Temporal Prime Directive. Or it could just be Kirk's attitude, which would explain the eye-rolling by Temporal Investigations officers Dulmer and Lucsly in DS9's "Trials and Tribble-ations."
• Gary Seven's Beta 5 has much in common with Daystrom's M-5 computer.
• The episode was first aired on March 29th, 1968. In a sad prediction, six days later, there was indeed an important assassination: that of Martin Luther King. Spock further mentions that the assassination is on the same day the US launches an orbital nuclear warhead platform. The missile shown is actually stock footage of Apollo 4, the first unmanned test of a Saturn V: King's assassination was the same day as the launch of Apollo 6, the second unmanned Saturn V test.
• When Seven is beamed aboard, slow motion flames can be seen behind the back wall of the transporter chamber.
• Robert Lansing (Gary Seven) is the only TOS guest star whose credit appears after the opening credits rather than during the end.
• This is only one of two episodes set entirely in the 20th century (along with ENT's "Storm Front").
• Teri Garr had a very unpleasant time filming, perhaps stemming from Roddenberry's involvement in decisions regarding her outfit. The hem was taken up so much the skirt became distorted. In interviews, Garr has refused to talk about Star Trek in any way.
• The rocket storage buildings were actually studio buildings on the Paramount lot. Launch Director Cromwell's car matches the car seen in one of the stock footage sequences.
• Gary Seven's HQ isn't far from the address of Lucy and Ricky Ricardo, also on East 68th Street.
• The is the only episode of the second season to have Roddenberry credited as "Producer" instead of "Executive producer," no doubt because of the degree of his involvement in hoping the pilot would successfully spin off.
