The Spock	comment	"Captain, the logical course of action in this situation is to let the inhabitants of Pupolon fend for themselves. We need the device keeping the planet's orbit stable, or risk endangering the very existence of The Federation. I am aware of the consequences for the local population, Doctor, but simply rushing in to 'save the high priestess' will leave us open to a Klingon ambush with a 78.52% probability of outright destruction. I realize this is a hard choice, Captain, but the needs of the many must outweigh the needs of the few." The Spock is an archetype that can be loosely summed up as the tendency to apply rules, reason and the greater good to all of their decisions — in other words, a character who will always think before acting. This character can exist by themselves, but more often, they will have a more emotional and humanistic counterpart to contrast their decisions. The main difference between the two archetypes is that while The McCoy will leap before looking, The Spock's solution to problems will have a balanced and well-thought out approach. When put in a Power Trio (or Freudian Trio) with The Kirk and The McCoy, this character becomes the Superego. The Spock's relationship with their crewmates/comrades is often tense, because this character type is willing and able to ruthlessly consider ethically troubling situations without batting an eye — especially situations where people might be ordered to die. While their counterpart The McCoy is interested in doing the right thing regardless of cost, The Spock is more interested in the end result. For them, everyone, (including themself) is expendable if it is necessary to complete the mission, and they have no problem treating people as such. The Spock maintains audience sympathy by being willing to Take a Third Option and also by being as ruthless about their own life as the lives of their crewmates, if not more so. Even better, they are utterly unflappable in the face of serious problems or danger; their friends know that no matter how terrifying or hopeless things get, they will never lose their cool and will not stop working on a solution to save everyone (which The McCoy does respect about them). And finally, they are perfectly willing to hear out The McCoy. The Spock will at times become a Tin Man, though this varies with the writing, and will often have No Sense of Humor. When they have emotion, they may sometimes express it with a Fascinating Eyebrow and nothing more. Since Smart People Play Chess, if The Spock plays a game, it will invariably be a variant of chess. Closely related to The Stoic, Agent Scully, Emotionless Girl, and Little Miss Snarker. Often becomes a Straw Vulcan, but occasionally ends up on the winning side of Emotions vs. Stoicism. Probably sides with the Enlightenment in Romanticism Versus Enlightenment. Well Intentioned Extremists often come across similarly when they believe they're working for the greater good. See also Spock Speak. This character type is Shoot the Dog personified. Named (obviously) for Spock from Star Trek. Compare their eternal opposite, The McCoy.

She ends up being the Only Sane Man in the climax, in which she is the only survivor who doesn't accuse Kamen of the crime, so getting the right ending depends on her solving the mystery and convincing the others of her theories.

Asuka and Shinji warned her that her medication regimen was hazardous to her health. She researched, and her research proved Asuka was right. Ergo, Rei stopped taking her medication.

The Spock / int_343830b9	comment	The Night Unfurls: Kyril isn't some robot whose pet phrase is "logic this, logic that", but the decisions he makes in both versions of the story evokes the image of the pragmatist who prefers cold reason, commits to a task and does what he has to do without batting an eye. Original version: During the war against the Black Dogs, Kyril always chooses to take as few prisoners as possible (i.e., killing those who surrendered) rather than adhering to "battlefield courtesy". Faced with a rebellion in Ken, he chooses to quell it with force rather than to discuss terms with the rebels (it doesn't help that they are supporters of an Army of Thieves and Whores). When playing the role of flag officer, he puts emphasis on mapping out plans large and small, maintaining discipline and achieving results. Not glory or "fighting with your heart and soul". Remastered version: After finding a den in Chapter 1, Kyril is more interested in dispassionately reporting the amount of orcs to kill as well as how the killing will proceed, in contrast to Alicia's concern for the orc victims. After dealing with an ambush in Chapter 2, Kyril's decision is to tell the others to stop grieving for their deadnote his reasoning being that i) the orcs will return soon, so if they keep staying, they all die, and ii) the dead are dead anyway and nothing will change that, take the reins, and continue on heading to the desired destination. In later chapters, he emphasises the importance of getting the job done, rather than saying things like "I believe in my heart" or "I don't want these people to suffer" or "it's the right thing to do". Even though he gains allies due to a lingering Good Samaritan instinct that he thought he had lost, he has not forgotten about weighing his optionsnote For example, he believes his allies may have a part to play in the uncertain times ahead, so he sees the act of abandoning them a wasteful action. This differs from something like "I won't leave them no matter what! It's wrong / They are my friends!".

The Spock / int_3ac36a5c	comment	Transformers: Generation 1: Prowl, more so in The Transformers (Marvel) comics. IDW's take deconstructs this- Prowl's lack of empathy and I Did What I Had to Do attitude alienate him from the rest of the Autobots, even those who were previously his friends. During The Transformers: Robots in Disguise and The Transformers: Combiner Wars, it's show that his "logical" behavior isn't even that logical — he's motivated as much by a desire for revenge and lingering mental instability over his torture by the Decepticons and being made a part of Devastator. Shockwave, though he's a villain. Typically it's considered his strength, as he can remain emotionally detached and not get distracted like Megatron or Starscream are prone to doing. Subverted in IDW's Spotlight: Shockwave, when he's unable to figure out a logical reason for why the Dinobots attacked him and begins losing the fight, only to realize that their reason is illogical: they're after revenge and he's only able to turn the fight around by deliberately activating an illogical rage mode.

However, he seems to recognize that sometimes a more warm-hearted approach is needed; he just can't provide it himself, and so prefers acting as second-in-command rather than The Leader. Lexa is another example. She believes that love (and emotions in general) are a weakness, and is ruthless about sacrificing anyone, even herself or those close to her, if she believes it's what's best for her people.

Sean is also concerned about his grades most of the time and uses the Scientific Method, as well as logical reasoning, to solve problems. Due to this, he has a terrible imagination. Mitchell fills in this role in the Freudian Trio with Mindy and Lillian. Mitchell is socially awkward, a Perpetual Frowner, highly intelligent, and doesn't easily believe in the supernatural. Dr. Rafferty serves this role in the Freudian Trio with Skelley and Bergs. While Rafferty is more open and friendly than most examples of the trope, she's the most intellectual of three and even though she's a Nervous Wreck at times, at least she has more self-composure than Bergs.

The Spock / int_81692f99	comment	Star Trek: Spock from Star Trek: The Original Series. Gene Roddenberry went on record saying that Spock is an idealized version of himself, as he'd always bemoaned his own passionate and hot-tempered nature. Almost every other Vulcan also falls into this trope, including Tuvok from Star Trek: Voyager and T'Pol from Star Trek: Enterprise. In fact, among Vulcans the half-human Spock ends up being The Kirk or even The McCoy by comparison. Tuvok especially is much more cold and humorless, being this by Vulcan standards. Data from Star Trek: The Next Generation. Subverted, though, in that Data is actually aspiring to become more human, and makes significant strides toward that throughout the show and its films. Still, as Spock himself put it: Dax originally had shades of this in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (this is lampshaded in a time travel episode where she unknowingly parrots Spock's statistical readings), but grew organically into a party girl and textbook case of Immortal Immaturity. The acerbic security chief, Odo, is much closer to this. Seven of Nine from Star Trek: Voyager, though she tries to overcome this in later parts of the show. T'Pol fills out this role on Star Trek: Enterprise, being a Vulcan officer assigned to serve aboard Earth's first Warp 5 starship, mainly to keep the humans out of trouble. Michael Burnham tries to be this in Star Trek: Discovery, but is The McCoy at heart. Saru, meanwhile, tends to be far more calculating, with the explicit goal (at least early on, of avoiding unnecessary risks.)

The Spock / int_a81325d3	comment	Final Fantasy: Squall of Final Fantasy VIII is a rare main character version. Raised as a mercenary, he's cynical about how the world works and tries to act solely according to duty rather than emotion. For the first portion of the game he seems like a lone Spock in a team of McCoys, but much of his Character Development is him learning how to healthily feel and express his emotions rather than acting like an automaton until he blows a gasket over, say, the execution of someone he knew from childhood. Jusqua of Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light thinks that he's this. When Horne is petrified, he doesn't go with Brandt and Yunita because they can find a way to lift the curse. Later, he faces up to the fact that he was actually being immature by snarking at them when he himself was unwilling to try anything he thought he'd fail at. Final Fantasy XIV deconstructs this with Urianger, who at first seems to fulfill the role perfectly; over time, however, he finds the emotional toll of repeated Shoot the Dog choices too much to bear, and laments his own failure to seek a third option to take.

The Ruthless background Shepard also qualifies, doing whatever it takes to get the job done, no matter how horrific, and usually in the middle of the action himself—the military's go-to guy for the most vital and most morally compromising missions. The Renegade morality path also comes off as this in all the major decisions and in many of the conversations (with the rest of the time consisting of being a hardass, and in some instances in the first game, a bit of a xenophobe as well)

Eventually it becomes clear that though Bean is as smart as Ender and more ruthlessly logical (due to having been genetically altered for greater intelligence), Ender is the more effective commander because he empathizes and associates with his sub-commanders and troops. As a result, Ender's soldiers have greater morale and willingness to follow their leader into deep battle than Bean's, turning the advantage in Ender's direction even with identical commands.

The Spock / int_bcadd7cb	comment	Warhammer 40,000: Among the Primarchs, there was Ferrus Manus on the Imperial side and Perturabo among the traitors. Both tended to be the most dispassionate and calculating Primarchs, and their Legions followed suit - although Perturabo's claim is a little weakened by his towering resentment and susceptibility to brief spasms of uncontrollable fury. Ferrus' downfall was also caused by his emotions getting the better of him, leading to him charging to his death. Rogal Dorn and his Imperial Fists also fall under here as stoic, disciplined masters of siege tactics and defensive fighting. Still, some of his actions post-Heresy were very much emotionally motivated and colored by his deep seated idealism. Adeptus Mechanicus supporting character tends to be this to whatever Inquisitor, Space Marine or Imperial Guard protagonist they follow around, especially if they have had the cybernetic surgical procedures of Clear Thoughts, excising the parts of their brains capable of emotions.

The Spock / int_c4282b71	comment	In My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, Twilight Sparkle takes this role in the first two episodes, not caring about "pointless" things like friends or fun. She ends up coming around at the end of the second episode, and the rest of the season documents her learning about just how kick ass friends are. She occasionally lapses into this when academic subjects are mentioned, especially magic. She has a very logical, scientific view of the world and though her excellent education means that she's often right, it does leave her rather inflexible. Her tendency to dismiss information that she finds illogical in particular has been called on more than once. Celestia, the Big Good of the series, more than once put the main cast (whom she is said to treasure) in a dangerous position with a gentle smile, sometimes without telling them so. Of course, given her position and age it is somewhat expected... Wind Whistler filled the role in My Little Pony 'n Friends. Her use of logic over emotion leads the other ponies to joke that she has no feelings, which does hurt said feelings. Among the Cutie Mark Crusaders, this is usually Apple Bloom's position. She is a well-grounded hardworking filly like her big sister Applejack and has little problem with emotional matters (though there are exceptions; in which case this role likely falls to Sweetie Belle).

In the sequel, he says that his parents did not believe in toys and he seems to be nigh-immune to the mood slime which makes the two most "positive" Ghostbusters try to kill each other.

He also notes that there is only one scene where he actually shows emotion, when Walter Peck tries to have the Ghostbusters arrested for an explosion that he caused himself. For the record, Egon was affected by the mood slime in the novelization and script of the movie. He was, however, the first to overcome its effects.

He first appears as a raving, cackling lunatic hell-bent on killing Goku (justified, as he has all his father's memories, and is only a few years old). Despite that, he was intelligent enough to ally with Goku and kill Raditz. However, when he did kill Goku, the circumstances made him realize that he had no goal afterwards, though he ends up training Gohan. Gohan's large heart helps Piccolo discover his conscience and he ends up becoming The Strategist of the Z-Fighters though he is still often puzzled by the emotions of his friends and he often decides the smart and pragmatic decision among his comrades. Sometimes, though, he gets angry. Like if Gohan gets hurt. Then he goes from being The Spock to a Papa Wolf.

Contrast with much more emotional and intuitive Garibaldi as The McCoy. Kosh among the ambassadors, a cold, cryptic super-advance alien worried only for the big scheme of things and coming from an entire race based on cold discipline and order. He can be very frustrating for Sheridan because of this, and heâ€™s imply to be the most emotional of his specie. The Spin-Off show Crusade has the techno-mage Galen as this. Galen is cold and logical and can be very ruthless. He can act irrationally though as when he kidnaps the ship in order to fulfill his dead wife's last wish.

The Spock / int_f7958019	comment	Sunshine. When the crew out to save the sun (and the world) are down to five members and their oxygen supply is cut, they realize they only have enough oxygen for four people to make a return trip. Corazon doesn't bat an eyelid in suggesting they murder one of their own (whom happened to be already wracked with guilt for a mistake that led them into this predicament in the first place) instead of all five of them dying from lack of oxygen, and it didn't take much convincing for two other crew members to accept the idea.

The Spock / int_f93d99aa	comment	All-American Girl (Meg Cabot): Rebecca is very reserved and matter-of-fact (save for her belief that aliens are real). She isn't worried by news that her sister has been at the scene of a shooting due to the statistical probabilities making it more likely that Sam is fine.

The Spock / int_fb9c177d	comment	Transformers: Almost all versions of Shockwave are what you get when this type of character is a villain. Cold, calculating, and unflinching. The original comic version even decided to overthrow Megatron, because it was the logical thing to do. And later on, he handed back power to Megatron, again because it was perfectly logical for him to do so. Best encapsulated by this quote from another Shockwave:
