From Modern Drunkard Magazine: Right off the bat, there’s the supposition, put forth by a respectable number of anthropologists, that human civilization would have never even come to exist if our nomad ancestors weren’t forced to settle into static towns to brew beer. On the other hand, a study done in the 1960s reckoned that, without alcohol, civilization would have probably collapsed into anarchy following the horrors of WWI. And wasn’t it an alcohol-emboldened Winston Churchill who possessed the guts to stand up to the tidal wave of tyranny that threatened to engulf the entire planet? Finally, in 1995, Norway launched a research rocket that came close enough to Russian territory to cause Russia’s nuclear missile forces to go to their version of DEFCON 1. They assumed it was the beginning of a preemptive strike by US missile subs. The Russians were two minutes away from retaliating with a nuclear launch against the U.S. and NATO, but according to Kremlin rumors, Russian President Boris Yelstin was too drunk to effectively access the launch codes. The delay was sufficient for the Russians to identify the threat as a false alarm and call off the attack. There you have it. Alcohol not only created civilization, it saved its collective butt on more than one occasion.
RIP James Doohan. For those that don't know, he was also a WWII hero and actually was at D-Day... where he lost a finger. Also known for just being a genuinely cool guy.
I read somewhere that he counter snipered a couple of Germans in a church tower despite not having marksman training, also that later he would be flying ground liaison Lysanders around France, where he was shot in the foot through the cockpit floor
The hilarious thing is that bit about "It is Green" was redone in Relics, the episode in TNG where Sotty appeared. I knot I'm probably not the only one to notice this, but dammit, I thought it was cute...
it looked more green in the Next Generation episode ... the original must have been dark green! ... but yes, totally funny when Data says "it's ....it's ........it's green!" hahaha
A buddy and I were watching "Relics" the night it aired. Data said, "It is green" - and we absolutely and utterly lost it!!!! For close to 3 decades, he and would still reference that moment, and still bust our guts. Thing is - neither of us even knew this scene existed until about a year ago.
Whiskey is aged in the cask. Once it is in the bottle it gets no better, in other words, it doesn't "age". Once it is in the bottle, 12 year old scotch stays 12 year old scotch. No matter if you keep it for 20 years.
"Dude" the aging comes from being in a wooden cask for 20 years. Once its bottled the aging process stops. So in theory you can have a 20 year old scotch that's been bottled for another 30 years. It might be 50 years old but Its still a 20 year old scotch that has been in a bottle for 30 years. Look it up.
"Oh I was saving you!" ...."what" ... nee'er mind, gee'us yer glass!! LOL .... and we all know from the Next Generation episode that Scotty wasn't replicating Scotch after work (whatever this is, it is definately not Scotch ..... Commander Scott is unaware of the existence of Synthahol .... aye laddy!!) in the replicator (probably a good thing LOL) .... he knew the difference so only real Scotch whisky from Scotland (whisky made in Scotland is called Scotch ... if it is made elsewhere, it is called "whisky made in xxxyyyzz location LOL) was good enough.......or , maybe some green Romulan ale LOL (wow, if their ale [beer] is that strong I'd hate/love to see their distilled spirits probably more than 40% !!). Personally, I feel I'd be dangerous with a replicator in the Star Trek universe (Earl Grey hot ..... I don't think so!) ... I'd be ordering pale ales, porters, IPAs, Imperial stouts, "barley wines" even if I knew they weren't "quite human" ... er ... I mean "quite real"! :D Coming into work the next day with all that "chatterin' piece a' " ... er I mean, 'computer beeps' ... "auuugch! Captain, cannae we do withoot all the noise of those bloody computers just fer one dae!"
@@mountainstartemple6041 I definitely love the musical score in this scene as well, fits him perfectly! Whenever it comes on, it mean Scotty is certainly up to something!
@@michaelcartwright8570 I remember a few more really memorable scenes with Scotty ... one where he was in command and said the phrase 'fool me once, shame on you ... fool me twice , shame on me' (LOL the phrase Bush botched) ... and also the show where he would not obey some order from some higher up ... but maybe one of my favourites was later where he wants the Holodeck computer (otherwise known as the "chatterin' piece a' ") to show the bridge of his old ship ... no bloody A, B, C, or D! haha
It's the little things that made the last scene. The fact that Tomar AND Scotty both passed out with their eyes still open just made it a truly epic drinking blackout.
What amazes me is just how much booze Mr Scott has stashed all over his quarters. Must be a great dude to party with but I'd HATE to pay his tab! I'd go broke in a weekend!
There's at least one Star Trek novel (I don't think it's canon anymore, or still in print) that describes how Scotty - before he was Chief Engineer - when he was just a Lieutenant I think - had figured out how to add a few minor plumbing bits in with the tubes and wires of the Enterprise engine systems to make a disguised STILL! Dude was an engineering moonshiner and the rest of the engineering staff kept it quiet because they liked having some "Engine Room Hooch" to relax with after hours! LMAO!! XD
actually not good to party with (well ok, maybe if you're paying the tab LOL)!.... he has all these real authentic alcohols stashed away and hidden so people won't find them .... he doesn't want some idiot who won't appreciate it drinking his real Scotch (ie, whisky from Scotland) when they'd be just as satisfied (and not even know the difference) with some replicated synthahol .... Scotty's like "laddy ... if yoo know what's good fer ya, yooo'd step away from my priceless bottle of authentic Scotch and go replicate some Coors Lite!!" Ok he let that alien drink his good stuff but only to get that device off his belt!
2:13 I watched this episode last night and it dawned on me that when Scotty was on The Next Generation he went to holodeck with a bottle of undetermined alcohol also. He was running a simulation of the original enterprise when Captain Picard came in and Scotty offered him a drink and then Picard identified the liquid as Aldebaran whiskey. I sure do miss Scotty.
Picard's family had a WINERY!! He's no lightweight! LOL!! Now mind you, I STILL think Scotty could drink him under the table. But it'd take about as much doing as the alien in this clip.
it wasn't acting ... he drank on the set! haha ... Actually oddly enough actor Leonard Nemoy drank quite a bit at that era of time from what I have seen.
Ever notice that the bottle that Scotty threw on the floor wasn't broken when he passed out even though you heard the "break" sound when he threw it? Odd, that Star Trek is... I LOVE IT!!
It's funny that Scotty is remembered as a drinker more so than Bones thanks to this scene. Bones was often with a drink in hand and injecting anything to anyone one randomly when in duty.
Ya but the difference is, Scotty enjoys the drink and only goes excess when he's got a plan or just needs to get the edge off. Bones does it to cope with everything around him.
Just watched the episode "Relics" from TNG. The line "It's...It's...It's Green" was used by Data when he offered an old Scotty some alien whiskey in Ten Foweard. I think it was an excellent ode to TOS and to the young Scotty.
It was also used in the ST:TNG episode "Relics" when Scotty didn't like the Synthehol he was served, so Data pulled out a bottle from Guinan's collection...
And then in ST:SNW and LD collaboration, Mariner introduced the Orion Hurricane cocktail for Uhura and Ortegas. And then the bridge crews of the Enterprise drank those with the Orion delaq mixed, and made them see everything in cartoon. That cocktail is green as well.
LOL .... actually, he was Irish! Both of his parents were from Ireland and came to Canada. He was quite good at making accents and of course what kind of starship would it be without a Scotsman as engineer!
I wonder if Tomar's jerky body movements before he keels over, is a result of a remnant of his actual physiology, as I don't believe one sees humans enter the sequence of passing out from intoxication like that?
@@mitchellmelkin4078 He drank a lot of booze and it's the first time his species ever drank booze. That's not just drunkenness, that's acute alcohol poisoning.
3:55 I'm amazed he was still able to remember WHY he was getting the alien drunk. I'm only sorry he passed out before he could get the thing to Kirk; the expressions on the faces of Kirk, McCoy and Spock would've been priceless.
Imagine, if he said, "I got to get this to the Captain." Took a few steps to the door, and as it opened, says "Now where was the Captain again? I don't remember."
One of my favorite episodes with the crew stimulating the Kelvan’s humanoid form’s curiosities and needs from tomar’s fascination with taste and kelinda’s curiosity with love

HAhaha always loved Scotty. Ive got some AGWA now and its green. never had it before but I thought of this scene and had to come watch it first. RIP to Star Trek actors...miss you all. And now Spock is gone.
It's interesting how no one has mentioned how much more sensible it would have been for Scott to have paced himself (allowing for how hard that would be for him to achieve), so Tomar would have ingested far more of the libations, and consequently, he could have actually delivered the projector to Kirk. An added benefit would've been not having to exhaust his stock, so that his scotch Whisky!!! was preserved for another occasion.
When he finishes the bottle of "green" he tosses it off and we hear the crash of it shattering on the floor. I knew that sound had only been dubbed in. When Scotty slumps down on the floor by the doors, there's the bottle on the floor not broken at all.
It was because of this scene with Scotty that years ago I purchased a bottle of Johnnie Walker Red Label Scotch Whiskey and packed it away for my retirement. lets hope it's still good as there's years left to go before I open it. but I have seen that dust has gathered on it's bottle even though it is packed away in the cabnet at the bottom of my bookcase in my room.
best thing ive seen while downing a couple bottles of wine, (to reiterate i finished one then started another), i feel id have to go through this process just to get my buzz going a bit.
Since it is the future, you'd think Scott would have taken a tablet (like in Revenge of the Nerds) to neutralize the alcohol. Also had some solid food to absorb the liquor, thus I'm surprised the alien passed out first.
The TNG episode where Scotty appears not only makes a reference to this scene, but also features the old TOS Transporter effect in higher definition as well as the old sound.
I wonder how he wrote this on the official report? "I used my superior Scottish liver to drink him under the table...but it was all in the line of duty!
PS: Note that I expect Starfleet to compensate me for lost goods in the line of duty."
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
If he wants compensation, I'm not sure Starfleet has that much money ...
Does anybody remember whether somebody found him passed out at his door, or did he more or less wake up and stagger off on his own?
He might have made an official claim of reimbursement for the lost true Scottish Scotch used (only whisky made in Scotland can be called Scotch)!
MN Irwin, It wasn't shown.
More like "I used my Scottish total dependence on alcohol to drink him under the table then passed out in the doorway, stewing in my own pish, unable to attain the the fish supper with salt and sauce and an Irn Bru I so sorely needed at this time.
And that, lads and lasses, is how booze saved the Federation.

@@mountainstartemple6041 Different green liquors. Scotty says he got his from Ganymede, while Data served him whisky from Aldebaran.
You know Scotty was saving that whiskey for a special occasion. you can tell he was a little annoyed that he had to use it.
It was covered in dust too, who knows how much he aged it for?
Whiskey is aged in the cask. Once it is in the bottle it gets no better, in other words, it doesn't "age". Once it is in the bottle, 12 year old scotch stays 12 year old scotch. No matter if you keep it for 20 years.

"Dude" the aging comes from being in a wooden cask for 20 years. Once its bottled the aging process stops. So in theory you can have a 20 year old scotch that's been bottled for another 30 years. It might be 50 years old but Its still a 20 year old scotch that has been in a bottle for 30 years. Look it up.
Also you buy it at 20 years old. Keeping it for another 5 years doesn't make it a 25 year old scotch.

Who amongst us has never sat with a friend, drinking into the late hours and after killing a bottle said as Tomar: "Do you have more? Well, anything."
Those were the days!😅😅😅

Scotty was the only good part of this episode, the rest was actually boring but the parts with Scotty were Brilliant.
Agreed. I was only looking for Scotty this episode.
Uh, no. Kirk smashing that babe was hot.

Poor Scotty and his drinking problems! He hid a bottle of scotch in armor! Buts that's Scotty!
The sin is you just don't drink stuff like that to get drunk. You drink it in small sips.

best ep. ever!
4:15
I thought I heard that bottle shatter a few moments earlier? I wonder how they managed that oversight?
What are we to believe, that this is some sort of a magic bottle? Boy, I hope somebody got fired for that blunder!
holy crap i love scotty but dam i never really laugh unless with other ppr but dam i cracked the hell up when he said "we did it you and me" XD
thank you sir!
Since it is the future, you'd think Scott would have taken a tablet (like in Revenge of the Nerds) to neutralize the alcohol. Also had some solid food to absorb the liquor, thus I'm surprised the alien passed out first.
He also drank everything else he had stashed. probally had a 3.5 BAC.
The only thing that would improve this scene is to skip Scotty passing out and instead pour himself another drink before heading to the captain.
That alien imposter had stamina. It is not easy to compete with Scotsmen and Irish when it comes to Alcohol.
He took one for the team
All I have left is a bottle of very very very old Scotty scotch. I'll get it! Give us yer glass!
Anyone else watching this while having a drink with Scotty themselves? ;)
I really like the shape of those futuristic bottles
Twice he drank It's Green drink. Once was this time the other was on Next Gen.
Taking human form and their reactions is like taking superman's form and opening yourself up to kryptonite poisoning
It occurs to me, that even in the future, and among different worlds…
The bar crawl might be a universal constant!
@Bouxfor You think he had only ONE bottle? There were quite possibly a large quantity of drinks in duplicate. This is, after all, Mr. Scot.
The TNG episode where Scotty appears not only makes a reference to this scene, but also features the old TOS Transporter effect in higher definition as well as the old sound.
Scotch Whiskey. The savior of humanity.
He sobered up thinking about that scotch, like I have not yet begun to drink!
0:56 "Okay, got it Captain." *Goes and gives the alien some 5 gum*
That's our Scotty!
Might be my favorite scene in TOS. Great acting!
Star Trek and booze, what a great combination!
Theres even a kilt, and a bagpipe, hanging on the wall...
aye ... sadly the kilt is hung with the pleats in the front ... kind of backward
Undoubtedly the longest single comedic sequence within an episode in all of Trek.
