How about "The Trial"? Offhand I can think of about six crimes from the last movie that should have Kirk looking down his own sword at a court-martial.

From: rcodyer%bailey.DEC@decwrl.ARPA (Spock here,ready to beam up...) I"ve been reading some SF stuff on compuserve. A gentleman who has some inside info on the plot of Star Trek 4 posted it. According to him, the plot is around Kirks courtmartial (sound familiar?) for stealing and losing the Enterprise. He is also on trial for inadvertantly supplying the Klingons with information on the Genesis project. In the meantime, the crew that assisted him, although not on trial, are captured by the Klingons. Kirk manages to breakout and with "new" cast members, rescues the crew. I don't know whether Leonard Nimoy has a part in this movie or not, but I understand his charachter of Spock is on Vulcan still recovering. Nimoy directs this movie, and Shatner will be in it after holding out for $2 million. It's been suggested that this could be the last movie with the original show cast, if not the last movie period. Any other info out there?

What a boring and stupid plot. I think of all the things that could be done with this movie and sigh to think that it may be just something like this. I say, just let Kirk, et. al. clear themselves of the charges quickly and cleanly (maybe giving it about as much time as Han Solo's rescue in Return of the Jedi), and let them all go off for adventure once again. If, as seems likely, this is indeed the last of the original cast, I think that they should be put to good use. -- Derek Zahn @ wisconsin ...!{allegra,heurikon,ihnp4,seismo,sfwin,ucbvax,uwm-evax}!uwvax!derek derek@wisc-rsch.arpa

>>Would anyone venture to guess what Star Trek IV will be about? >Can it be anything but "The Search For Spock's Luggage"? With the bucks Nimoy made on III, make it "The Search For Spock's Tax Shelter." Does anyone really think there will be a IV? Last I heard, Shatner wanted more than Paramont would pay him, and Nimoy wanted whatever Shatner was getting. And then there's the tidbit about how much the Captain liked getting directions from his First Officer.
