The One With… Benedict Cumberbatch.Star Trek Into Darkness is the twelfth film in the Star Trek film series, released in 2013.The sequel to Star Trek (2009), it is the second film in the franchise to be directed by J. J. Abrams. Along with returning actors from the previous movie such as Chris Pine as Captain Kirk and Zachary Quinto as Mr. Spock, the film features an All-Star Cast by bringing Benedict Cumberbatch, Alice Eve and Peter Weller on board. Noel Clarke also makes a brief appearance.Tensions are high upon the USS Enterprise as Captain James T. Kirk and his first officer Mr. Spock clash over their conflicting philosophies regarding professional and personal honor after a mission in which Kirk violates the Prime Directive. But when a rogue Starfleet agent, John Harrison, embarks on a campaign of terror against the organization, the crew of the Enterprise is assigned the duty of traveling to the volatile Klingon homeworld and bringing him to justice. Of course, all is not as it seems: there might just be a Greater-Scope Villain lurking behind the rogue officer, and Harrison may be more than he claims to be...Watch the announcement teaser here and the full trailer here. Followed by the 2016 sequel Star Trek Beyond.Sadly, the film ended up being both the last time Leonard Nimoy would play Spock Prime and his final film appearance in general before his death on February 27th 2015.Character tropes go on to the Characters Sheet.

Overranked Soldier: In the first film, some were left questioning how Kirk "earned" the captain's chair, even though he obviously belongs there in the end. This answers it in the beginning by having Starfleet Command relieve him of command for violating the Prime Directive. It doesn't last long, but still.

No Celebrities Were Harmed: In an interview with Vulture, Peter Weller compared his character to USAF General Curtis "Bombs Away" LeMay, who advocated a preemptive strike on Cuba and carpet-bombing North Vietnam (and served as the real-life inspiration of General Ripper), as Marcus wants to jump-start a war with the Klingons. Lampshaded by Weller.

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: Much like the Klingon Empire was deliberately written to evoke the Soviet Union in the early years of the Star Trek franchise, many of the details of John Harrison's backstory are crafted to evoke Osama bin Laden. Harrison (secretly Khan Noonien Singh) is a shady figure who's recruited by Section 31 to serve as an operative in the war against the Klingons, but betrays his backers and becomes a terrorist—much like Osama bin Laden was recruited by the CIA to serve as an operative against the Soviets, only to betray the United States and lead a terrorist campaign against them. Similarly, the initial plan to eliminate Harrison—fly by the planet where he's hiding, without bothering to get permission from the local government, and fire seventy-two missiles at him—is similar to the initial plan to off bin Laden, by firing missiles and/or smart bombs at his safehouse in Pakistan (without getting permission from the Pakistanis, fearing somebody might tip him off). This was changed into a commando raid (still without their permission) to eliminate the danger of a misfired missile in a crowded city, and to make sure he was dead.

Tempting Fate
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_15b2cab3
comment
Tempting Fate: In the opening, when Spock starts to chew Kirk out for saving him at the expense of violating the Prime Directive and showing themselves to the natives, Kirk brushes him off with a flippant, "What's the worst that could happen?" Cut to the natives, who were earlier praying to the erupting volcano, bowing before an abstracted sketch of the Enterprise—their new God. Made even more amusing by the sacred scroll depicting the volcano that Kirk stole simply getting dropped to the ground and ignored by the native who was holding it. Kirk boasts to Pike that not a single crew member has died since he took command of the Enterprise. Not only will this figure drastically change in the future (so many poor red shirts...), it will drastically change before the movie is over. Harrison taunts Spock by noting, "You wouldn't break a rule, how could you break bone?" This comes back to bite Harrison in the climactic fight, when a grief-stricken Spock breaks Harrison's arm. Lampshaded at one point.

All There in the Manual
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_17ce80aa

Played straight in the case of the "Mudd incident" referenced when Kirk, Spock and company use a confiscated civilian starship to enter Klingon territory. However, this also qualifies as an All There in the Manual moment, as the "Mudd incident" is actually a major plot point in the tie-in comic series leading up to the movie and a Continuity Nod (see above).

Never Trust a Trailer: The trailers do a very good job of hiding the plot while still showing off a lot of the action. You'd never know from the trailer that the film comes off as Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan meets Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. You also get the impression that the Enterprise crashes into San Francisco Bay, when it's actually the Vengeance with Khan at the helm, so much so it had the unintended effect of upsetting fans who feared the film was lining up to be an expy of the Enterprise-destroying Star Trek III: The Search for Spock.

Underestimating Badassery: When being questioned by Kirk, Harrison makes a snide comment about Spock, being a Vulcan, not knowing savagery as he does. Spock shows him how wrong he his during his No-Holds-Barred Beatdown in the climax. There's a reason Vulcans suppress their emotions.... Spock is also half human (giving him even less emotional control), although Harrison may not know that.

The Main Characters Do Everything: When Scotty and his assistant quit, fresh-out-of-the-Academy Ensign Chekov is made Chief Engineer, over the heads of the rest of the Engineering staff, with nothing but a handwave about him having shadowed Scotty. Also during the finale. The Enterprise is at Earth. It's pretty obvious they are up against a bad spaceship and bad guys. No attempt is made to contact Earth to put their probably-not-inconsiderable forces of whatever they can scrounge up (shuttlecraft/tugs to slow the fall of the Enterprise/warning about potentially falling spacecraft) to help. Also, why would they pick Bones to assist Carol on the dangerous mission of opening the warhead of one of the torpedoes, other than to keep all actions within the group of known characters. Gets lampshaded afterwards:

 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_20f689e9
comment
Adaptational Villainy: The film gives a darker view on Khan's origins. In the original series, history depicts a "benevolent tyrant" who was repressive but not wholly murderous. Into Darkness has Spock state that history indicates that Khan and his followers were planning to destroy those deemed inferior. Khan doesn't confirm it but doesn't deny it either. The tie-in comics show that Khan genuinely saw himself as humanity's savior and that he explicitly wanted to rule, not destroy. However, the methods he employed to achieve his goal (including nuking Washington D.C. and Moscow) would certainly justify humanity recording in their history that he was an Omnicidal Maniac.

Crapsack World: The uninhabited province of Qo'noS in which the Enterprise crew track down Harrison appears hellish for humans, and even Klingons don't regularly stop by. In contrast to most futuristic depictions of Earth these days, averted as per Roddenberry's long-held optimism with regards to Earth itself. Despite people living in huge cities, for example, there are still beautiful areas of countryside such as outside London. And futuristic San Francisco just looks cool, even though Khan breaks Alcatraz.

Chekhov's Gun: No, not that Chekov. Harrison's blood, used to save a comatose girl in the film's opening, also gets used to revive a dead Tribble, and then save Kirk in the film's ending. The Tribble itself is this. The IDW comics reveal that McCoy obtained a Tribble specimen and attempted to experiment on it, but it died several hours later. McCoy decides to keep the dead creature in the event that he ever needs to run tests on it in the future, and it's what he uses the blood on during the conversation with Harrison in the Enterprise sickbay. The 72 advanced torpedoes, which get used to threaten Harrison and later disable the Vengeance.

No-Holds-Barred Beatdown
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_25524784
comment
No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: Kirk tries to do one on Harrison, but Harrison is too strong to even get bruised. Kirk also gets one from a few Klingons on Kronos—he walks away, and is able to deliver the above attempted beat-down on Harrison, but he's still bloodied and clearly in pain. The final climactic confrontation between Spock and Khan, where a grief-stricken Spock breaks Khan's arm and comes within seconds of killing the man despite his being Made of Iron.

Apathetic Citizens: A Mile-Long Ship has just crashed into San Fransisco, smashing Alcatraz as it came careening down over the Bay before plowing through a fair-sized chunk of the city itself. People notice, but as Spock pursues a fugitive through the city, most folks are just going about their business as if this sort of thing happens every day.

Funny Background Event: When the experimental torpedoes are delivered to the Enterprise, Keenser is seen in the background sitting on one and looking rather taken with it while Scotty is pitching a fit at Kirk. At the end of the Cold Open, the head native casually drops the sacred scroll as they start worshipping the Enterprise instead. When Kirk and Scotty meet up with McCoy in sickbay after Spock detonates the torpedoes, Scotty glances down at McCoy's arm and goes wide-eyed. The doctor rearmed all the torpedoes the same way he armed the first one, getting his arm repeatedly caught by the sliding panels.

 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_2c1f1138

He Who Fights Monsters: The major theme of the film, tying in with Revenge, is the danger of compromising one's morals in the quest for vengeance against those who have wronged you. Kirk's speech in the epilogue states that in trying times, it is even more important to stick to your values rather than become corrupted. This trope is also personified by Admiral Marcus, who becomes an even bigger threat to Starfleet in his attempts to defend it from the Klingons.

Five-Second Foreshadowing: When Harewood arrives at his desk, we get a close-up of him putting down a glass of water before he takes his seat. Seconds later, we find out what the glass of water is for. "In the event of an attack, protocol dictates that all available senior Starfleet officers should gather for a special briefing in this very room." Just as Kirk thinks he's pulled a successful Hyperspeed Escape from the Vengeance, Carol Marcus runs onto The Bridge and warns him that her father's new ship has "advanced warp capabilities." Sure enough, this is when the Vengeance catches up to the Enterprise and starts shooting.

Sequel Escalation / Invincible Villain: In the previous film, the Enterprise was actually able to stand up to the Narada, if briefly, and made sure Nero and his crew went to their deaths in the Negative Space Wedgie. This time around, the Vengeance is so staggeringly superior that the Enterprise is practically wrecked in a matter of seconds and never fires a single shot in return. That said, the long-range torpedoes are still effective when combined with a transporter.

Actor Allusion: Cumberbatch plays a character named "John", who picks up a Sherlock-style greatcoat for the climax. Also, he refers to being manipulated through his friends, and also jumps off of stuff a lot. Peter Weller, who played Buckaroo Banzai, gets a line tipping a hat to that film. Marcus's attempt to use a super-ship to start a war with the Klingon Empire recalls something Weller's character in Star Trek: Enterprise, John Frederick Paxton, said. In both cases Weller takes an extreme "Us versus Them" mentality.

Noodle Incident: Bones tells Carol that he once performed a Caesarean section on a Gorn and delivered octuplets. This may have happened in the interquel plot of Star Trek: The Video Game. Played straight in the case of the "Mudd incident" referenced when Kirk, Spock and company use a confiscated civilian starship to enter Klingon territory. However, this also qualifies as an All There in the Manual moment, as the "Mudd incident" is actually a major plot point in the tie-in comic series leading up to the movie and a Continuity Nod (see above). Kirk's apparent past relationship with Christine Chapel that Carol alludes to, but that Kirk has trouble remembering.

Similarly, the initial plan to eliminate Harrison—fly by the planet where he's hiding, without bothering to get permission from the local government, and fire seventy-two missiles at him—is similar to the initial plan to off bin Laden, by firing missiles and/or smart bombs at his safehouse in Pakistan (without getting permission from the Pakistanis, fearing somebody might tip him off). This was changed into a commando raid (still without their permission) to eliminate the danger of a misfired missile in a crowded city, and to make sure he was dead.

 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_3d699462
comment
Curb-Stomp Battle: The Vengeance lays a severe beating on the Enterprise, enough to knock her out of orbit. It's sufficiently one-sided that the Enterprise never gets to fire a shot, as the weapons systems are the first to be taken out. That doesn't stop the torpedoes themselves from being useful, however. John Harrison versus anybody (besides Spock). Versus a Klingon squad. The Klingons don't stand a chance. He beats the crap out of Kirk near the film's climax, and it takes him two seconds to deal with Carol and Scotty. His attack on Starfleet HQ. He spends several minutes hovering outside the window unloading heavy weapons fire into the conference room and laying waste to anyone who stands up or tries to fight back. Kirk finally manages to cripple his gunship only for Harrison to safely beam himself out.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_3ed23024
comment
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Used in the film's opening. Turns out that when you're a cocky, inexperienced captain of a starship who keeps breaking the rules like Kirk, you eventually get removed from command. The Enterprise ends up facing a warship, a fast battleship to be exact, that severely outclasses her. She doesn't defeat the Vengeance in combat, gets shot up pretty bad and is only saved because both Scotty and Spock pull a fast one on Marcus and Harrison. During the space jump sequence, Kirk dodges large chunks of debris, but his face mask takes multiple hits from tiny chunks. Which crack the mask and nearly kill him. It also disables his Heads-Up Display. The Vengeance is heavily automated; in an emergency, a single person can pilot it. But it has very little crew to repel - or even detect - boarders.

Two people call Kirk "son" over the course of the movie. Early on in the movie, Pike cheers Kirk up after he was demoted. Admiral Marcus later refers to Kirk as "son" twice, to speak up during the Starfleet meeting and to convince him to stand down and give Harrison to them. Whereas Pike is genuine and affectionate, Admiral Marcus is more insincere and mocking.

Manipulative Bastard: Admiral Marcus decided to steer Kirk's rage into a course that would ignite a war with the Klingon Empire, first by sending him in a Federation ship to Qo'noS, then by giving him orders to bombard the Klingon homeworld, and finally by sabotaging the Enterprise so that it would be caught by the Klingons.

Bittersweet Ending: Many people die after the Vengeance crash-lands in San Francisco (think 9/11 taken up to eleven) and a commemoration is needed for all the people who died in Harrison/Khan's and Marcus's carnage. However, the war with the Klingons is averted, Marcus is dead, Khan and the other Augments are safely secured in cryosleep, Kirk is saved and restored to command, the Enterprise is sent on its five-year mission, Section 31 has been exposed, and the Federation begins demilitarizing Starfleet.

Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!: Kirk disobeys the Prime Directive during the film's opening by exposing the Enterprise to a primitive race in order to save Spock's life. Spock also justifies saving the aliens from being wiped out by a volcano, saying it's allowed by "technicality." Spock Prime has sworn never to reveal information from his own timeline to his younger counterpart, lest he alter events any more than they already have been. He makes an exception to explain just how dangerous and untrustworthy Khan is. Inverted when Admiral Marcus orders Kirk to kill John Harrison in a stealth attack. After much soul-searching, Kirk decides, "Screw the Admiral's questionable orders, I'm doing what's right!" and informs the crew that they will be arresting Harrison to stand trial for his crimes.

Villainous Rescue: Harrison saves Kirk, Spock, and Uhura's asses from the Klingons, and proceeds to take the brunt of the battle for them, since he knows they've got his torpedoes and he needs them alive. The Enterprise also would have been destroyed if he hadn't offered Kirk important information about Section 31, and helped them out in general before he decided to destroy the Enterprise.

Harrison guessing that Kirk would decide to capture him instead of just bombarding him from afar, and also guessing that Marcus would come personally to finish him (and all witnesses) off. Which leads to a Xanatos Speed Chess once the USS Vengeance, which Khan possibly designed to be manned by one person in the event that he could get his hands on it, comes into play.

Trope Codifier
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_44bd31e2
comment
The Prime Directive (which is the codifier for this trope), the set of rules stating Starfleet personnel avoid interfering with less developed alien cultures, is discussed during the opening away mission. In this case, Kirk gets demoted and temporarily loses command of the Enterprise for violating it. It's worth noting that unlike other cases were the Prime Directive is used to justify letting an alien species die, Pike is more angry that Kirk got into a situation in the first place were he either had to obey the Directive or save a crew member, and then lied, incompetently, about doing it.

Worthy Opponent: Averted. Harrison clearly gains some respect for Kirk after witnessing Kirk's grit and guts in the space jump the two share. He still considers regular humans to be inferior, however, and delivers a beatdown the moment he has the opportunity to, and he unceremoniously dumps Kirk back into that same cell he was being held in before he tries to destroy the Enterprise. In the novelization, this is downplayed with Harrison's regard for Spock. He seems to have full respect for Spock's intellectual prowess, but questions how the Vulcan would cope with a situation that doesn't call for intellect or formal training.

Allegory: In the finest Star Trek tradition of sociopolitical commentary, the movie takes cues from aspects of The War on Terror, with super-long-range torpedoes standing in for CIA drone strikes (there's even a version of the "capture or kill" debate between the characters: Adm. Marcus says "kill", Scotty refuses to go along with government-ordered assassination, and Kirk eventually chooses to try to take Harrison alive first) and questions of how much we should be prepared to compromise our values for the sake of security.

A starship crashes into San Francisco and destroys a large part of the city, including Alcatraz. The Trans-America building is narrowly spared. Averted in one sense as there were no sightings of a Gorn. There was an off-hand mention, though.

Scenery Porn: There's an absolutely huge amount of background detail in every shot of Earth, fleshing out the culture, the civilian lifestyle, and generally showing how the world has evolved. A few of the bar scenes make hilariously great references to 1960s culture, however, giving a nod to the era in which Star Trek was born (and from which much of TOS's set design was drawn). We get to see a lot more of the internal workings of the Enterprise, including Sickbay and Engineering. Plus, there is a large foyer-like open space in the middle of the saucer section, crossed by catwalks, that have no analog in the original TV or even film version.

We get the bone crunch sound effect and her scream only. Averted in some split seconds during Khan's slaughtering of Klingons in which we see one get blown in half and another's leg landing near a character, though they're almost out of focus and are shown very quickly.

Fish out of Temporal Water: Harrison averts this. Despite waking up a few centuries into the future, he seems to have adjusted pretty well. Being genetically enhanced might have something to do with it, and we never see the actual adjusting. Harrison must have been awake long enough to advise Marcus on quite a few matters, after all. The original Ricardo Montalban version didn't seem to have much trouble adjusting quickly, either.

Hyperspeed Escape: Attempted by the Enterprise, which jumps to warp to flee from the Vengeance, which has her badly out-gunned. This backfires when it's revealed that the Vengeance can catch up with other ships at warp, resulting in Enterprise being pounded by phaser fire until her warp field collapses.

Book Ends: The film's intro and climax feature a Federation starship rising from and crashing into the sea, respectively. Also, a disastrous terror attack on a major Federation facility in a major city. Given the movie's deliberate parallels to 9/11, and the fact that 9/11 was preceded by the 1993 WTC bombing...

comment
Dangerous Phlebotinum Interaction: Exploited. John Harrison's agent destroys the Section 31 weapons lab by dropping a ring he's wearing into a glass of what at least looks like water, causing a tremendous explosion. Discussed. One reason why Scotty refuses to sign off on the new torpedoes is because he doesn't know anything about their propulsion or how it might affect the warp core on the Enterprise.

10-Minute Retirement: Kirk gets demoted to First Officer of the Enterprise under Pike for violating the Prime Directive at the start of the film, only to regain his command a few scenes later after John Harrison attacks the Federation. Scotty resigns from the Enterprise near the beginning of the film thanks to Kirk's sudden bout of obstruction regarding the special torpedoes. He shows up again halfway through the film, and is instrumental in sabotaging the Vengeance.

Bat Deduction: Kirk figures out that the archive bombing was a ruse to gather Starfleet's command into the briefing room. While he's correct, it's his first guess, which comes off as a rather abrupt leap of logic. Downplayed, however, as the only reason he's accepted as correct is that he deduces it as it's happening, and the film frames his hypothesis as just that, a hypothesis. Furthermore, Kirk manged to guess Harrison's ultimate intention but missed a rather important detail: Harrison chose that archive because it wasn't an ordinary archive at all. It was part of a covert intelligence agency that Harrison's feuding with.

Much like the Klingon Empire was deliberately written to evoke the Soviet Union in the early years of the Star Trek franchise, many of the details of John Harrison's backstory are crafted to evoke Osama bin Laden. Harrison (secretly Khan Noonien Singh) is a shady figure who's recruited by Section 31 to serve as an operative in the war against the Klingons, but betrays his backers and becomes a terrorist—much like Osama bin Laden was recruited by the CIA to serve as an operative against the Soviets, only to betray the United States and lead a terrorist campaign against them.

Not His Sled: The moment Khan is revealed, viewers that saw Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan are likely to jump to the conclusion that Spock will pull a Heroic Sacrifice again by fixing the Warp Core, complete with his last words being mentioned early on as foreshadowing. Nope, it's switched up: Kirk does the sacrifice and Spock watches him "die" through the radiation door.

Transhuman: Notable because of the franchise's attitude towards this subject in the past that a heavily augmented human (Science Officer 0718) appears as a member of the Enterprise crew. Possibly as a minor counterexample to Khan, since he doesn't have any major significance beyond calling out a couple of lines.

Broken Faceplate: Realistically played straight. During the space jump, Kirk takes a winging glance to the face from a small piece of debris.

It holds and does not shatter completely, but it does disable his Heads-Up Display.

Dying Moment of Awesome: Kirk saves the crew by going into the warp core in order to get it working again. What's awesome is that Scotty says the radiation will kill him before he could make the climb; not only does Kirk make the climb, but he keeps on going until the damn thing is fixed. And then has enough steam to crawl back to the door again. It may have copied Spock's death in Wrath of Khan, and it may not have lasted, but every fan can agree that Kirk finally got a death worthy of him.

Meaningful Echo: Two people call Kirk "son" over the course of the movie. Early on in the movie, Pike cheers Kirk up after he was demoted. Admiral Marcus later refers to Kirk as "son" twice, to speak up during the Starfleet meeting and to convince him to stand down and give Harrison to them. Whereas Pike is genuine and affectionate, Admiral Marcus is more insincere and mocking. Also spanning across the series, the first and second film end with Kirk entering the bridge of the Enterprise, telling McCoy to get ready, speaking with Spock, and as the Enterprise prepares to warp, the original series' Opening Narration is spoken in voiceover.

comment
Meaningful Name: The USS Vengeance is described as a Dreadnought-class ship. The class is named after HMS Dreadnought, a British battleship that made all other battleships obsolete when she was built. The Vengeance is supposed to do something similar to the warships of the non-Federation states in the Star Trek Universe, as it packs much more firepower and much more speed and maneuverability than any other ship in the Federation. Considering how Harrison helped design and build her, the name Vengeance might allude to what he planned to do with her if he ever got the chance. Its name is also similar to the name of a ship from the Mirror Universe episodes of Enterprise, hinting that it stands for something opposite of what a Starfleet ship should. It's also meaningful plotwise—Vengeance is the kind of name you'd pick for a ship meant to avenge an unprovoked act of Klingon aggression... only it hasn't happened yet. Vengeance is also the name of a line of Royal Navy warships, which includes a (pre-dreadnought) battleship, an aircraft carrier and a ballistic missile submarine; in other words, folks, the name Vengeance has as much historical lineage as Enterprise. Made even more meaningful given John Harrison's British background. "John Harrison" is also a meaningful name. The real John Harrison also performed great service to his Navy (in this case, inventing the marine chronometer, a highly-accurate portable clock with which he was the first person to solve The Longitude Problem) and was completely snubbed by them. Granted, the real Harrison did eventually get his recognition, after appealing personally to King George III. Also, he wasn't a complete madman.

A Wizard Did It: The novelization explains that they didn't take blood from another frozen augment because McCoy didn't know if they could all regenerate like Khan and didn't want to risk another superpowered psychopath running around the ship. In the novel McCoy notes that the planetoid that he and Carol Marcus open the missile on must have an extremely dense core if it has Earthlike air and gravity. A tie-in comic says that Khan had Magic Plastic Surgery to explain why he looks completely different to previous incarnations.

Private Military Contractors: Scotty notes that a guard's uniform doesn't look like Starfleet, but more like a private security uniform. Since the Vengeance is a super-secret ship, probably built by Section 31, he might work for a mercenary firm.

Disney Death: Kirk appears to die saving the Enterprise, only to be brought back by McCoy.note The scene shows Kirk losing consciousness in the containment chamber, then lying in an open body bag in sickbay. But when McCoy had his epiphany on how to save him with Khan's blood, he put Kirk in one of the augments' cryotubes to preserve his brain function, revealing he was Only Mostly Dead, as commented on by McCoy when Kirk comes to.

And the Adventure Continues: Or rather, the adventure begins, with the film ending as the Enterprise leaves Earth to begin its five-year deep space exploration mission, which was the basis for the original series. Also, with the threat of a Klingon/Federation war on the horizon. The tie-in comics confirm that the Klingons are planning to declare war on the Federation after obtaining photographic evidence of Kirk being on Qo'noS.

Godzilla Threshold: Adm. Marcus views the pending war with the Klingons this way, and seeks out the assistance of one of Earth's most dangerous tyrants to counter them. Spock Prime considers Khan dangerous enough to break his rule to talk about his timeline as little as possible. The Vengeance so outclasses the Enterprise that unleashing the evil John Harrison on it is actually the best option Kirk and co. can come up with.

Idiot Ball: Starfleet regulations during a crisis are to gather together their entire fleet command in the same room, which has a huge window overlooking an open area that just so happens to be easily accessible for a small fighter ship. There are apparently no defense measures in place, minimal guards stationed nearby, and nobody monitoring the local airspace for threats. Kirk, if your Chief Engineer resigns on the spot rather than follow your orders, it's possible that you might be giving terrible orders.

Swiss-Cheese Security: Starfleet Headquarters has no defense against hostile aircraft, allowing Harrison to attack the meeting of Starfleet's ranking officers uncontested. For a supposedly super-secret ship, the Vengeance is inexcusably easy to access. Scotty is able to fly his shuttle right through the main hanger doors with a convoy of supply ships, then board it, and they never even notice until he's sabotaged it from the inside. That's the problem with automating everything.

Colour-Coded for Your Convenience: This film plays Dark Is Evil very straight with Harrison's all-black clothing and the Vengeance, but when Kirk and Harrison prepare to space jump, it goes the extra mile by making the collar of Kirk's suit a subdued gold, and the collar of Harrison's... black. It seems that the standard Starfleet gear for anyone who doesn't have a role on the ship comes in black: Kirk's uniform during most of the first movie had black accents, as he wasn't actually part of the crew.

Internal Deconstruction: Kirk's Field Promotion in the first film from cadet to Captain of the Federation flagship is aggressively torn apart with Pine's Kirk not having the same respect of the responsibilities of the chair as he should. He breaks regulations just in trying to save the inhabitants of a planet and outright lies about what he did in his official report, which is swiftly uncovered by Starfleet and earns him a dramatic demotion. Spock's Vulcan logic continues to fail him: after nearly allowing Earth to be destroyed by Nero in the previous film, his personal life is now a disaster, with Spock finding himself at sea with Uhura, leading to feelings of neglect. He's not much use when Pike gets shot, either. In fact, it isn't until Spock completely flips his wig that he finally gets something done. At the end of the film, Captain Kirk and the Enterprise get sent on the five-year mission. Some viewers have suggested that this was a way of rewarding the hero while getting him and his Doom Magnet of a ship as far away from Earth as possible.

Action Prologue
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_77414bc2
comment
The volcano that is supposedly going to wipe out all life on the planet in the Action Prologue is riddled with errors (quite apart from the hilarious depiction of cold fusion). Volcanic eruptions can cause significant environmental damage and have been responsible for famines in human history, but the effects are temporary: humanity itself is suspected to have survived an eruption by the volcano that encloses Yellowstone National Park thousands of years ago, a significantly larger blast than what is presented in the film (Kirk seriously expects leading the villagers a few miles away would protect them). And if saving that one village is enough to save the species, that means their population is already so low they're likely to go extinct from inbreeding pretty soon anyway.

Chronic Backstabbing Disorder: Admiral Marcus and Section 31, who betray both the Enterprise and their own ruthless superhuman agent to try and start a war with the Klingons. Harrison, too. The Enterprise was incapable of threatening him, he had the most powerful ship in Starfleet, and theoretically his crew returned. He doesn't even bother to check on that last bit before deciding to blow up the Enterprise, even though he'd have been untraceable if he'd simply left.

comment
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Kirk stuns a creature that appears before him as he runs from a planet's natives, only for Bones to tell him that the creature was their ride out. Kirk's lust for revenge is what ultimately dooms the Enterprise. If he had not desired vengeance against Harrison, there would have been no eventual confrontation with the Vengeance. He wanted vengeance and he got it. The Vengeance's merciless assault is what inspires his heartfelt apology to his crew, as seen in the trailer. Khan's decision to crash the Vengeance into San Francisco and kill countless innocents is probably influenced at least partly by the fact that Spock has tricked him into believing that all of his crew were killed. Admiral Marcus points out briefly that landing in Klingon territory and taking out several patrols (even in self-defense) will still draw the wrath of the Klingons against the Federation. Even though this was his goal to begin with. It's implied this is the reason why the two are hostile to each other during the 5-year expedition of the Enterprise, which starts at the end of the film. As a furious Scotty points out, by confiscating his transwarp equation, Starfleet inadvertently ended up allowing a rogue Starfleet officer to commit a terrorist attack and then jump across half the universe to safety.

Attack Its Weak Point: When Harrison attacks the Federation meeting with an aircraft, security guards try to take him on face-to-face and get shot. Kirk, being Kirk, grabs a rifle, flanks the craft, and attacks the starboard weapon mount. When that doesn't work, he ties a fire hose to the rifle and throws it into the aircraft's intake. That works much better.

What Happened to the Mouse?: When Kirk, Spock and Uhura head down to Qo'noS to arrest Harrison, they are accompanied by two Red Shirt security officers. The two are last seen debarking the shuttle during the ensuing action scene, firing at the Klingons. According to the movie, both of them survive (they show up in later shots), but this is never remarked upon by any characters. According to the novelization, one of them dies (Herndoff, the one Kirk addresses directly about changing out of the uniform), but he reappears in Star Trek Beyond, so his death cannot be canon. It's also never revealed what happened to Thomas Harewood's wife and daughter after he blew up Area 31.

In the opening, when Spock starts to chew Kirk out for saving him at the expense of violating the Prime Directive and showing themselves to the natives, Kirk brushes him off with a flippant, "What's the worst that could happen?" Cut to the natives, who were earlier praying to the erupting volcano, bowing before an abstracted sketch of the Enterprise—their new God. Made even more amusing by the sacred scroll depicting the volcano that Kirk stole simply getting dropped to the ground and ignored by the native who was holding it.

Mind Rape: Of the Brown Note variety. When Spock is fighting Khan, he briefly mind melds with him. Whether Spock just transferred his feelings of grief and rage or did something else, Khan lets go of him and stumbles around a bit before regaining his feet. It seems possible, given Spock's mindset and his previous specific mention of being burdened with them, that Spock transferred the emotions that Pike was feeling during his death as a kind of karmic retribution. It's also possible that, given Khan was attempting to physically crush his skull at the time, Spock was sharing the physical pain he was experiencing at the time. Spock transferred the impression of the cryotubes with Khan's crew on the Enterprise, showing Khan's just-committed revenge mass-murder to have been pointless.

Reed Richards Is Useless
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_8b221a63
comment
Reed Richards Is Useless: By the end of the film, Bones manages to synthesize a formula from that can effectively resurrect the dead. No mention is made of future use of it, though given it came from the blood of man with now illegal bio-augmentation, it's quite likely its use will be outlawed in the future. Knowledge of the "transwarp transporter" technology has now passed from Scotty's hands into those of Section 31, and of course he still works for Starfleet, so there is no reason why they would not pull him from his job as a starship engineer to work on perfecting it for more widespread use. Why go to the trouble of building super-warships and instigating a war just to have the means and excuse to destroy a potential enemy when you could just beam a bunch of bombs to the enemy's home planet and sit back and relax as they are wiped out? Also, why make long tedious journeys through space in starships when you can beam almost anywhere in an instant? It's these elements that have led to rumors that the next film in the series would have to ignore these developments as it would be difficult to create drama when there's an immortality drug and long-distance nearly-instantaneous teleportation possible.

The USS Enterprise still qualifies. It seems to have upped up its Macross Missile Massacre arsenal from the previous movie too, given Sulu could put all seventy-two 'special torpedoes' into position without trouble. By the end of the film, the ship seems to have undergone minor refits after a year of repair, particularly on the impulse engine and warp drive components on the nacelles◊.

Cargo Cult: The Nibirans, a primitive race who have "barely invented the wheel," begin worshiping the starship Enterprise after seeing it rise out of the water in the opening sequence. This is precisely what the Alien Non-Interference Clause was put into place to avoid. Nice Job Breaking It, Hero. To be fair, the film made clear that there were exactly two options at any time: allowing the race to be completely destroyed by the eruption, or save them without them realizing it. Then when the mission hit a snag, the choice was between saving Spock or concealing their presence. Kirk will choose to save lives whenever he has the opportunity.

Take a Third Option: When Carol tells Admiral Marcus he can't destroy the Enterprise with her onboard, he simply beams her onto his ship, then prepares to re-open fire. Khan threatens to attack the disabled Enterprise unless he gets his crew back. When Spock points out destroying the ship will also kill Khan's crew, Khan replies that he'll just destroy the life support and cut the oxygen. Since his crew are in cryosleep, they'll remain unharmed as the Enterprise crew suffocates. Spock counters by sending the "torpedoes" to Khan, but arms the warheads in them after McCoy's gotten the cryopods in them out.

Kirk figures out that the archive bombing was a ruse to gather Starfleet's command into the briefing room. While he's correct, it's his first guess, which comes off as a rather abrupt leap of logic. Downplayed, however, as the only reason he's accepted as correct is that he deduces it as it's happening, and the film frames his hypothesis as just that, a hypothesis.

Revenge Before Reason: Kirk struggles with the urge for vengeance, clouding his judgement when it comes to Harrison. Marcus exploits this by thinking Kirk will just carry out the assassination mission and start the war Marcus wants. As emotions run more deeply in the Vulcan race, Spock comes within a hair's breadth of murdering Khan after Kirk's death, before Uhura informs him they need Khan alive, since his blood can bring Kirk Back from the Dead.

Superweapon Surprise: What the USS Vengeance was supposed to be. Admiral Marcus planned to use her to blow the crap out of the Klingon warships after they had destroyed the crippled Enterprise. Judging from the reactions of the Enterprise crew when they see her and the events that follow her reveal, she definitely would have succeeded in this regard.

As You Know: The opening scene is filled with it. Spock repeatedly reminds Kirk that the Prime Directive prohibits them from revealing themselves to the natives, Sulu has to tell Uhura that the shuttle wasn't designed for the heat of a volcano, Spock has to tell everyone that the volcano will destroy the planet, Uhura has to tell Spock that he might die, Sulu has to tell Spock that the shuttle wasn't designed for this amount of heat, Spock has to tell everyone that his device will detonate when the timer reaches zero, and Sulu and Scotty have to tell Kirk that the ship won't withstand the heat. They all knew what they were doing and what the mission was. When Kirk mentions that Harrison went to Qo'noS, Marcus mentions in passing that Qo'noS is the Klingon homeworld (as an Info Dump for non-trekkies). Spock Prime uses the phrase when explaining to Young Spock that the elder has taken a vow of non-interference. That being said...

Gambit Roulette
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_987be393
comment
Gambit Roulette: Admiral Pike accuses Kirk of making reckless command decisions and relying on blind luck to ensure his missions go according to plan without harming his crew. Harrison guessing that Kirk would decide to capture him instead of just bombarding him from afar, and also guessing that Marcus would come personally to finish him (and all witnesses) off. Which leads to a Xanatos Speed Chess once the USS Vengeance, which Khan possibly designed to be manned by one person in the event that he could get his hands on it, comes into play. The only part of Marcus' plan prepared ahead of time were the torpedoes and the USS Vengeance. He did not know that Harrison went to Qo'noS, or that Pike would die during Harrison's attempt on his life, or that Kirk would be agreeable to assassinating Harrison. Meaning that his plan to use the Enterprise to kill Khan and his crew while at the same time provoking the Klingons to war was made up on the spot in less than a minute after Kirk told Marcus of his intentions and Harrison's location.

Foreshadowing: Khan explains that Marcus's ship, the Vengeance, is constructed so that it can easily be controlled by one person. Khan unsurprisingly uses this feature after the Vengeance's crew is taken out. A model of the Vengeance appears on Admiral Marcus's desk, alongside several other Federation vessels and early air/spacecraft, near the start of the film. Khan mocks Spock by saying the latter would never break regulation, let alone bone. At the end of their No-Holds-Barred Beatdown, Spock grabs Khan's arm and breaks it horribly at the shoulder. Harrison's first appearance is saving Uhura from being killed by a Klingon, due to still needing the crew. Uhura later saves him from being killed by Spock on the grounds that they still need him. Spock strongly objects to their mission objective of finding and killing John Harrison without a trial on moral grounds, but stands by without a word of objection while Kirk pummels Harrison after accepting his surrender as payback for Pike's death. At the end of the movie, guess who nearly beats Harrison/Khan to death with his bare hands as payback for Kirk's death? Uhura has to put a stop to it both times. Several times early in the film, characters survive certain death by being beamed to safety. Thus, when Carol Marcus tries to act as a human shield for the Enterprise, Admiral Marcus simply beams her away to his ship. Spock explains his ability to not break Starfleet regulation and still attempt to preserve a primitive species as "embracing technicality." Spock Prime reinforces this flexibility with regulation when he agrees to help the Enterprise, despite the Temporal Prime Directive. What does Spock do when presented with the dilemma of giving Khan back the torpedoes containing Khan's crew or facing the death of his captain and crew? Gives him back the torpedoes. Just the torpedoes. Hell of a technicality. Even Scotty gets into the act. A rather clumsy one comes when Kirk abruptly breaks off from an intense conversation with Harrison to ask Bones what he's doing with a Tribble. As it happens, he's conducting an experiment that'll save Kirk's life in a few hours.

Also, the Enterprise exits warp with Earth partially obscured by the Moon and from then until it enters the Earth's gravity well is a huge ball of problems regarding distance, time and the various forces involved—either inertia carried them to Earth (in which case they spent too long near the Moon) or they had limited inertia and should not have been able to reach Earth in that short of a timeframe. Liberal helpings of Rule of Drama required. Also notable is informing the distance to Earth in several thousand kilometers... but the actual number could only have been less than fifty kilometers at the most.

"No Peeking!" Request: Science officer Carol is in the middle of a discussion with Captain Kirk when she asks for him to turn around, and declines to elaborate why when he inquires. He hesitantly complies, but soon after sneaks a glance behind anyway to find her in only her underwear in the middle of changing her clothes. He stares long enough for her to notice and gets mad at him, demanding him to turn around again.

Never Give the Captain a Straight Answer: When Bones sees exactly what's inside the torpedoes, all he can say is, "Jim, you're gonna wanna see this." Scotty tells Spock to come down and see something... that something being Kirk, before he dies from radiation poisoning. Not only similar to the iconic scene from The Wrath of Khan, but uses nearly identical dialog, too.

Khan shrugs off Spock's attempt at a Vulcan Nerve Pinch and multiple point-blank phaser stun-blasts. It's only after Khan's smacked in the head with a piece of metal and beaten some more that he finally goes down.

comment
When Kirk, Spock and Uhura head down to Qo'noS to arrest Harrison, they are accompanied by two Red Shirt security officers. The two are last seen debarking the shuttle during the ensuing action scene, firing at the Klingons. According to the movie, both of them survive (they show up in later shots), but this is never remarked upon by any characters. According to the novelization, one of them dies (Herndoff, the one Kirk addresses directly about changing out of the uniform), but he reappears in Star Trek Beyond, so his death cannot be canon.

Oh, Crap!: Kirk has one when he realizes that the London bombing was a diversion to draw all the top Starfleet brass into one room so Harrison can take them all out at once. Carol Marcus has one when Harrison reminds her that one of the things the Vengeance is designed to do is pursue and destroy enemy ships in warp. Chekov, when ordered to put on a Red Shirt. Kirk and Spock's reaction when the Klingons dismiss Uhura's attempts at negotiation and look about to get violent with her. Admiral Marcus has one: "Well, shit. You talked to him." Kirk again when Admiral Marcus tells him he is going to kill the entire Enterprise crew, and that getting them killed was always part of his plan. Spock Prime's reaction when Spock asks if he's ever known someone named Khan. Harrison himself gets a momentary one when a pissed-off Spock starts chasing after his ass.

Mirror Character: John Harrison notes Kirk's love for his crew and presents his love for his own crew as a point of similarity between them. Not to mention how both of them are willing to go to great lengths to protect and save their crew. Also, throughout the movie, Kirk and Harrison have the desire to avenge their loved ones, Harrison against Admiral Marcus for supposedly killing his crew and Kirk against Harrison for killing his mentor Pike. But whereas Kirk, with the influence of his crew, learns that he shouldn't let revenge cloud his judgement and refuses to kill or even stun Admiral Marcus since his daughter is watching, Harrison lets his hatred for Starfleet fester and doesn't care if innocents are caught in the crossfire.

Berserk Button: Spock when Kirk dies from radiation poisoning from having to enter the energy core to manually fix the Enterprise after Khan shot it. Beating Khan to death, considering Spock was all originally for a fair trial for Khan, until Uhura tells him to stop is some serious berserk button issues. Unless you wish to face the wrath of Lieutenant Uhura, do not hurt Spock. You have been warned. Also, lest you wish to face the wrath of the Klingons and Lieutenant Uhura, do not interrupt Uhura while she's negotiating with the Klingons. Threatening Khan's crew or implying that they're dead is a seriously bad idea. Admiral Marcus found that one out the hard way.

Putting on the Reich: The new Starfleet dress uniforms seem to hint at the undercurrent of increased militarism in the alternate timeline; some of them look like something straight out of the Imperial Navy. Although, strangely enough, they're now made of denim. The Gap must still exist in the future. Though they do also strongly resemble the uniforms from Star Trek: The Motion Picture, with the shoulder pips denoting rank in a similar fashion to those on the 24th-century uniforms. Also, the brown uniforms (presumably Marines/ground forces or enlisted) evoke an image of World War 2 British and US Army uniforms.

So narrow, in fact, that the ship scrapes the walls both on top and bottom. Though it's all for naught since it's stopped by more Klingon interceptors on the other side.

You Said You Would Let Them Go: Played with; Harrison lets his hostages return to their ship in exchange for the torpedoes his crew are hidden in, then states he's going to destroy Enterprise anyway.

In the novelization, this is downplayed with Harrison's regard for Spock. He seems to have full respect for Spock's intellectual prowess, but questions how the Vulcan would cope with a situation that doesn't call for intellect or formal training.

Ret-Canon: A map shown in the film places the Klingon homeworld, Kronos/Qo'noS, in the "Omega Leonis sector block." The "sector block" descriptor is a cartography term created by the Star Trek Star Charts licensed reference book by Geoffrey Mandel, and the Omega Leonis sector block nomenclature was created for Star Trek Online's overworld. (Sector blocks have since been removed from the game in favor of rendering the entire quadrant as a single map.)

Shout-Out
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: The design of Earth's cities now has a very Mass Effect–like look and feel. From the vehicles to the architecture, you'd have expected to see a derelict Reaper near London. The Klingon ruins suggest a cross between Tuchanka and Ilos. When Harrison takes out the Starfleet High Command early in the movie, it resembles the scene in The Godfather Part III. Nibiru, the name of the planet in the opening scene, is the ancient Babylonian name for Jupiter (which has also been used in a couple of different pseudoscientific theories involving planetary catastrophes). The room where the Starfleet captains confer and are eventually ambushed by Harrison looks very much like the archetypal war room seen in films like Dr. Strangelove and Fail-Safe. The Klingons' helmets look like a cross between Darth Vader's and the clone/storm troopers'. Their skin tone and the bling embedded in their head ridges make them look very much like Xerxes from 300. When Harrison gets his hands on Marcus, the scene plays out like Tyrell's death from Blade Runner. Both the space jump to the Vengence and the run through Engineering as the Enterprise pin-wheels out of control resemble sequences in the early levels of Dead Space 3. Some of the interior of the Vengeance looks like a cross between an Imperial Cruiser and the colony of LV-426. The design of the Vengeance itself (color aside) bears more than a passing resemblance to the Enterprise-E. Possibly a coincidence, but a movie in the previous year also featured a small spaceship crashing over a red-and-white forest near a volcano. The music from the Original Series episode "Amok Time" is played very briefly.

Cool Starship
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_c7b5445c
comment
Cool Starship: The USS Vengeance, a big, jet black Federation warship prototype that is over twice the size of the Enterprise, three times as fast, and has about ten times the firepowernote According to supplementary material, Khan was able to give it limited Warp 10 capabilities and it had the shields and firepower to potentially challenge an entire Klingon fleet. Thanks to advanced automation, it also carries a smaller crew complement than the Enterprise and can potentially be operated by one man. Finally, it's the first ship in this continuity that can engage another ship while at warp. She makes quite an impression when the main characters see her. The USS Enterprise still qualifies. It seems to have upped up its Macross Missile Massacre arsenal from the previous movie too, given Sulu could put all seventy-two 'special torpedoes' into position without trouble. By the end of the film, the ship seems to have undergone minor refits after a year of repair, particularly on the impulse engine and warp drive components on the nacelles◊.

Unspoken Plan Guarantee: The audience is spared a recap from Spock Prime of how the Enterprise defeated Khan in the Prime timeline. Immediately after learning these details, Spock comes up with his own plan in the event of Khan's inevitable betrayal, and all the viewers learn about it is that it requires engineers, medical staff, and McCoy's knowledge of how to arm the super-torpedoes. It works perfectly.

Taking You with Me: With his crew apparently dead and the Vengeance in no shape to escape or fight, Harrison decides to just ram the thing into Starfleet headquarters. Fortunately for Starfleet, the engine cuts out early and Harrison merely wipes out a small selection of buildings along the coast. Harrison also survives thanks to his enhancements, but Spock is smart enough to know he would.

Outside-Context Problem: From Kirk's perspective, the Vengeance is this. Bad enough that The Dreaded Dreadnought is bigger and more powerful than the Enterprise, leading Kirk to decide that a Hyperspeed Escape is the best option, but he simply does not figure on the Vengeance being able to catch up with them at warp, leading to an epic Curb-Stomp Battle. If not for Scotty sabotaging her from the inside, the Enterprise would've been destroyed.

Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_d525f857
comment
Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale: The volcano that is supposedly going to wipe out all life on the planet in the Action Prologue is riddled with errors (quite apart from the hilarious depiction of cold fusion). Volcanic eruptions can cause significant environmental damage and have been responsible for famines in human history, but the effects are temporary: humanity itself is suspected to have survived an eruption by the volcano that encloses Yellowstone National Park thousands of years ago, a significantly larger blast than what is presented in the film (Kirk seriously expects leading the villagers a few miles away would protect them). And if saving that one village is enough to save the species, that means their population is already so low they're likely to go extinct from inbreeding pretty soon anyway. Two ships battle in warp space, one knocking the other out. At this point they are 250,000 miles from Earth, as pointed out by dialogue. In the various television series, going to warp in a solar system (or likewise dropping out of it) was treated as dangerous and something rarely done unless necessary. One of their computers would have been alerting the crew that they were near home. It's kind of like driving at 100 miles per hour and stopping on a dime an inch from your house. Going from Earth to the Klingon homeworld is treated as a less than 5 minute trip, each way. Even Star Trek's own rather vague guidelines on warp speed treat going to the closest star system to Earth, at the speeds the Enterprise is capable of, as a journey taking two days. The Enterprise's fall to Earth from orbit of the Moon would, as previously mentioned, require her to fall 250,000 miles. The problem is, having her fall that far in the time allotted would require her to be traveling at relativistic speeds, which she clearly isn't based on how long it takes them to pass through the upper atmosphere.

Heinousness Retcon: Khan Noonien Singh is accused by Spock of having intended eugenics-motivated genocide on all those he considered inferior during his reign. This contradicts his presentation as a benevolent dictator in his introduction in "Space Seed", with it being stated that under his rule there were no mass killings and no wars that weren't started by other parties, his status even being a plot point as it causes the crew of the Enterprise to underestimate how ruthless and power-hungry Khan really is. That the events take place in an Alternate Timeline should have no effect on this as Khan's time was centuries before the departure point.

Race Lift: Khan was originally played by Ricardo Montalbán, who was a Mexican playing a Sikh. This version of Khan is played by Benedict Cumberbatch, who is English. Cumberbatch does have a line or two sorta-implying that "race" may not traditionally apply to Augments, however. The Star Trek: Khan tie-in comic series show that Khan was given extensive plastic surgery, a memory wipe, and a fake life history by Admiral Marcus, in an attempt to recruit him into Section 31 as John Harrison, Hero of the Federation. This works out about as well as it did with Michael on Stargate Atlantis.

comment
Lightning Bruiser: The Vengeance is described by Harrison as "three times the speed" as the Enterprise. According to the novelization of the film, these are identified as "Mark IV" capabilities. They include special modifications to the warp drive and nacelles, that allow a Dreadnought-class ship to enter the warp tunnel of other vessels. The ship can momentarily exceed all accepted warp factors and catch up with a starship it is following. Now factor in how more heavily armed it is than the Enterprise and how extremely durable it is in design, to the point that it could could remain intact even after the internal detonation of 72 photon torpedoes. Not a ship any captain would want to take on in a straight up fight. Harrison himself. He's more than a physical match for a Vulcan, and he can go from quietly lying on the floor to up and knocking someone unconscious faster than the rest of the room can react. Not to mention superhuman endurance, stamina, and apparent immunity to the stun setting of the phaser.

comment
Gambit Pileup: Batman Gambit: Harrison's terrorist attack has its own agenda, but its primary objective is to get all the captains and first officers together in an emergency meeting so he can strafe the place and kill as many as possible. Marcus's Batman Gambit involves Kirk killing Harrison with the Human Popsicle torpedoes. It fails. Manipulative Bastard: Admiral Marcus decided to steer Kirk's rage into a course that would ignite a war with the Klingon Empire, first by sending him in a Federation ship to Qo'noS, then by giving him orders to bombard the Klingon homeworld, and finally by sabotaging the Enterprise so that it would be caught by the Klingons. Gambit Roulette: Admiral Pike accuses Kirk of making reckless command decisions and relying on blind luck to ensure his missions go according to plan without harming his crew. Harrison guessing that Kirk would decide to capture him instead of just bombarding him from afar, and also guessing that Marcus would come personally to finish him (and all witnesses) off. Which leads to a Xanatos Speed Chess once the USS Vengeance, which Khan possibly designed to be manned by one person in the event that he could get his hands on it, comes into play. The only part of Marcus' plan prepared ahead of time were the torpedoes and the USS Vengeance. He did not know that Harrison went to Qo'noS, or that Pike would die during Harrison's attempt on his life, or that Kirk would be agreeable to assassinating Harrison. Meaning that his plan to use the Enterprise to kill Khan and his crew while at the same time provoking the Klingons to war was made up on the spot in less than a minute after Kirk told Marcus of his intentions and Harrison's location. Out-Gambitted: How Spock defeats Khan, by allowing the latter to retrieve the armed torpedoes he thought contained his crewmates.

This is quite fortunate for Kirk, Scotty, and Harrison when they board it to capture the ship from Marcus, then again for Harrison when he truly does have to pilot it by himself later.

Male Gaze: In the scene in which Uhura is walking up to the Klingon war party in an attempt to inform them of their intentions, the camera is firmly focused on her behind as she's walking, right up until she stops. Similarly, the camera (and Kirk's eye) stealing a look at Dr. Marcus as she changes uniforms. J. J. Abrams made sure the film was this, as Pretty Boy Chris Pine's ass was CGI'd out of a scene as he "couldn't inflict that on people" (Pine himself was slightly upset about the news), and a Cumberbatch Shower Scene is only on the deleted features (Abrams revealed the existence of the Cumberbatch scene after Trekkies characteristically complained about the Carol underwear scene). Then again, this is following a trail blazed by Gene Roddenberry...

Historical In-Joke
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_dfe57573
comment
Historical In-Joke: The USS Vengeance is described as a Dreadnought-class starship, and a revolutionary new design. In Real Life, the commissioning of HMS Dreadnought, with her powerful steam turbine powerplant and all-big-gun weapons loadout led to a revolution in naval warfare, with all battleships henceforth described as being "Dreadnoughts" or "Pre-Dreadnoughts." Indeed, HMS Dreadnought is the Trope Namer for massive Game-Breaker warships being called Dreadnoughts. Interestingly, it has a second parallel with the original Dreadnought: It wasn't actually that impressive. The HMS Dreadnought only ever sunk one ship in wartime, and it was by ramming it. Likewise, despite the upgrades that went into the USS Vengeance, it is incapable of taking out a single older-model ship (the USS Enterprise). Although in the case of the original Dreadnought, this was because there was only one major battleship battle during World War I, while Dreadnought was in port in the middle of some refits. Most of both nations' battleships were held back in reserve, the idea being not to risk such valuable assets until the enemy had committed his own.

Decon-Recon Switch: The previous movie ended with Kirk getting promoted to Captain straight out of the Academy for saving Earth. Unfortunately, this puts Starfleet's flagship in the hands of a CO who's still immature and cocky as hell, and who gets utterly reamed by Admiral Pike and demoted all the way back to Cadet for his Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right! methods. When Kirk then regains command of the Enterprise, his cockiness and bullheadedness nearly get him, his ship, and his entire crew destroyed. This leads him to admit to Spock that he was never truly ready for command — and in doing so, he takes a serious level in maturity that finally makes him worthy of being Captain Kirk.

 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_e303d198
comment
Whole-Plot Reference: To Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan: Kirk needs to learn he can't always Take a Third Option (at least not without paying some kind of cost), the plot is driven by characters' putting Revenge Before Reason until they have nothing left but a desperate attempt at Taking You with Me, ultimately culminating in a Heroic Sacrifice (with dialogue which of course directly mirrors the same scene from Khan). Also to Diane Carey's Dreadnought! novel. An Insane Admiral wants to use his pet Dreadnought project to gain power in the Federation, then proceed to impose order on all the other "threats" in the galaxy. Said Dreadnought is more than a match for anything else that can be thrown at it, is stolen from the admiral in question, and it's up to the Enterprise crew to expose this nefarious plot. However, in Dreadnought!, Rittenhouse never had command of Star Empire, while here, Admiral Marcus is in command of Vengeance briefly before Khan pries the ship from his cold, dead hands.

To Star Trek: The Next Generation: In the seventh season episode "Homeward" the Enterprise crew saves a primitive civilization about to die because of a planetary catastrophe. Although, Picard was willing to uphold the Prime Directive but was subverted in this effort by Worf's adoptive brother. To Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: John Harrison is a rogue agent of Section 31, an organization which first debuted there. After Harrison attacks Starfleet HQ, he transports to the uninhabited Ketha Province on Qo'noS, the future birthplace of General (later Chancellor) Martok.

Artistic License – Ships: Harrison's declaration of "targeting life support behind the aft nacelle" makes little sense, as aft, when used this way, means "rearmost". Since the Enterprise's nacelles are parallel to each other, they are both the same distance from the rear of the ship. The appropriate dialogue should be "targeting life support aft of the starboard/port nacelle"—or, canonically, "below the starboard nacelle".

Mildly Military: It's almost startling to see any order actually get obeyed at any point in the film. Kind of lampshaded with the reveal that the Starfleet officers who see it as a military organisation are the bad guys. It's one of the best ironies of the film that Kirk gets a dressing down for not obeying orders because he thinks the rules don't apply to him, and is almost immediately given an order that the guy who dressed him down wouldn't have wanted him to obey, from someone who thinks the rules don't apply to him.

comment
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: When Scotty resigns in protest of their very highly illegal mission to Qo'noS, he makes a last desperate appeal for Kirk to reconsider and calls him "Jim" instead of Captain. Spock Prime promised to let Spock walk his own path and not interfere with his destiny. Khan, however, is so terrifying that he breaks this rule and gives Spock all the necessary information he has. Spock's reaction when Scotty calls him down to the reactor room. He doesn't even know what happened, only that something terrible has happened to Kirk. He rushes out of the bridge, forgetting to give the legally required order that someone take command (something even Kirk remembered to do in Wrath of Khan with the situations reversed). And as he runs through the halls, there is sheer panic on his face. His reaction to actually finding out what happened is even more unusual; he loses control and becomes violently enraged and vengeful.

comment
Conveniently Close Planet: Twice. The Enterprise, after being forced to leave warp in hostile space, just happens to do so within shuttle range of an uninhabited planet with a breathable atmosphere so McCoy and Carol have somewhere to work on the special torpedoes. When the Enterprise comes out of a battle at warp speed, it is stated to be about 250,000 miles from Earth—about the orbit of the moon. Of course, the moon happens to be at that point in its orbit also. In no time at all they are caught in Earth's gravity and end up in Earth's atmosphere. Now it is possible if the Enterprise was drifting fast it could get to Earth that quickly, but at the speed (250,000 miles in only a few hours at most) it would zip (very unpleasantly) through the only-200-mile-thick atmosphere of Earth and smack into the surface in no time at all, barely having a chance to slow down in the atmosphere and think about their situation.

 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_f5a3e496
comment
Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Admiral Marcus has similar motives to Admiral Cartwright from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, who envisioned a more militarized Federation in the face of Klingon aggression and was willing to murder his own to see that dream become a reality. And he's played by the same guy that once played a human supremacist willing to use deadly force in Star Trek: Enterprise.

The room where the Starfleet captains confer and are eventually ambushed by Harrison looks very much like the archetypal war room seen in films like Dr. Strangelove and Fail-Safe.

Artistic License – Physics
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_fc225bec
comment
Artistic License – Physics: The moons of Earth and Qo'noS appear far too close to their respective worlds. Also, the Enterprise exits warp with Earth partially obscured by the Moon and from then until it enters the Earth's gravity well is a huge ball of problems regarding distance, time and the various forces involved—either inertia carried them to Earth (in which case they spent too long near the Moon) or they had limited inertia and should not have been able to reach Earth in that short of a timeframe. Liberal helpings of Rule of Drama required. Also notable is informing the distance to Earth in several thousand kilometers... but the actual number could only have been less than fifty kilometers at the most. In the opening scene, Spock uses a "cold fusion" device to freeze the volcano. However, the term "cold fusion" is used to describe a hypothetical fusion reaction that doesn't require extreme heat to occur—not one that generates extreme cold. Also, freezing a volcano is a really bad idea—it will just bottle the pressure that the eruption is trying to vent, and once enough pressure builds up, it will erupt anyway—and much more violently.

Captain's Log: Turns out that Kirk falsified his log entry regarding Nibiru, describing the survey as "uneventful" and saying nothing about freezing an active volcano and revealing the Enterprise to the pre-industrial natives. Admiral Pike tears him a new asshole for this.

Brick Joke: Of a very dark variety. During Harrison's Hannibal Lecture to Kirk and Spock, he says that Spock can't even break a rule, so how can he be expected to break bone? Fast-forward to Spock's berserk rage after Kirk dies, and what does he do? Break Harrison's arm at the shoulder, complete with Sickening "Crunch!".

Beauty Is Never Tarnished
 Star Trek Into Darkness / int_fe614133
comment
Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Carol Marcus gets fed a piece of the scenery by Khan when she gets in his way, and shortly afterwards has her leg stepped on by him, complete with sickening crunch. Cut to a shot of her being dragged to a teleporter and sickbay, and she has absolutely no external signs of injury. However, before she gets brought in to sickbay, when they are initially sent back via Khan off the Vengeance—into a holding cell on the Enterprise, look closely and she does have a noticeably large black and blue swollen area encompassing most of what appears to be her knee area. Granted, the trope is still mostly in effect as the damage is rarely seen after that and of course, her face is perfectly fine. A male example: When Spock was dying of radiation poisoning in Wrath of Khan, he had burns on his hands and face. In this movie, Kirk doesn't get any of that.
