One scene I just didn't understand was the break McCoy out of detention scene. Just who were these guards? Who is the first to tell an ADMIRAL "you've only got two minutes" in a rude manner. Is this insubordination or what? And even worse, the other guard has the gall to call a Lt. Commander "tiny"? He doesn't deserve a judo flip, he deserves the stockade! I too felt the destruction of the Enterprise was gratuitous. Scott and Kirk just didn't seem to care. When it burned up in the atmosphere, they might as well have turned their back for all they cared. It feels as though the writers were told, "we want the Enterprised trashed. Do it." -- Brad Templeton - Waterloo, Ontario (519) 886-7304

I believe this was a civilian stockade, or (more likely) a jail supervised by civilian law officials.

Besides, the visitors were all in civilian clothes.

To begin with I loved the movie...
Why would it be a civilian stockade when he was picked up by a
Starfleet Security Officer? Also why were the security guards that
soon showed up wearing the "new" security guard look?
