Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan – Episode 82

  • Summary

  • Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan was the second big-screen adventure for the Star Trek crew, with a longstanding enemy restored to prominence with revenge on his mind. In this episode Gerry and Iain discuss manoeuvring in 3D and genocide on a global scale. Abandoned on a hostile world, Khan Noonien Singh (Ricardo Montalban) encounters Captain Terrell (Paul Winfield) and his first officer Commander Chekov (Walter Koenig). Commandeering their vessell, the Reliant, he sets about twin goals of seeking revenge on Kirk and obtaining the Genesis device. Genesis is a scientific project headed by Carol Marcus (Bibi Besch) and her son David (Merritt Butrick) with genociadal capabilities in the wrong hands. With the Enterprise crewed mostly by cadets, including the vulcan Saavik (Kirstie Alley), the support they needed may not be readily to hand Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan was directed by Nicholas Meyer, his first work for the franchise. Meyer also wrote the screenplay from a story by Harve Bennett and Jack B. Sowards. In this episode Gerry and Iain considered whether the temperature for serving revence matters all that much.
