Herbert Hoover?

Spock specifically identifies Herbert as having been a "minor official". Since Herbert Hoover was the President of the United States, it seems unlikely he was the person referred to. I've updated the text accordingly. If anyone can supply a citation to support the claim, feel free to restore it.--Skyraider 05:29, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

Perhaps it's a reference to Herb Solow, the Desilu (Paramount by that point) executive in charge of the show? Daniel Case 02:55, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Grace Lee Whitney's comments

Of course, Whitney had left Star Trek two full seasons and more before TWtE was shot. Captain Pedant (talk) 13:10, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

The "AV Club"?

Who the heck is the "AV Club"? Why are their subjective opinions included on most every wikipedia article on Star Trek episode? This looks like some sort of planted advertisement for whatever website this "AV Club" has. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.181.21.227 (talk) 23:25, 7 December 2013 (UTC)

• Agree, seems unnecessary to a fifty-year-old show, but, oh well, I'm sure Wikipedia has worse. Sir Rhosis (talk) 23:50, 7 December 2013 (UTC)

AV Club is a review site -- just the same as "Rotten Tomatoes" or any other. It is a fairly well known site. Your question is like asking "Who in the heck is Encyclopedia Britanica" or for that matter "Who in the heck is Rex Reed" etc. Chesspride 172.164.5.148 (talk) 18:46, 22 July 2016 (UTC)

Dr. Sevrin

I don't know if this would even be considered worth mentioning in the article, and wouild certainly need to be "sourced" if it were to be, but the name "Doctor Sevrin" sounds like a play on "Doc Severinsen", Johnny Carson's bandleader on The Tonight Show at the time. 2601:545:8201:6290:39F9:B3F5:E320:A7BB (talk) 08:13, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
