Not to mention, for Vulcans if they don't mate, their hormones build up to a toxic level that literally kills the within days. Very serious stuff to Vulcans, I guess!
@SamIAm We only know what Spock himself said (from the Amok Time script): SPOCK: Most interesting. It must have been the combat. When I thought I had killed the captain, I found I had lost all interest in T'Pring. The madness was gone.
Several times Leonard looks like he's biting his lip to keep from laughing. I can't imagine how much fun he and Bill had recording this scene! I bet it took 100 takes, I don't care how professional they were as actors.
Ashton Smith Very True, as back at that time, while filming the series, they DID allow for laughter and a little goofin off. Bill Shatner was good for that, however, it was sad that in later years, all the other sctors and actresses were very negetive towards Bill, and wrote and said some really nasty things abouf him in the later years after the show went off the air. This is why Bill Shatner doesn't want much to do with any of them anymore as it hurt his feelings. He won't show it outward, however inward, if shows. I say, Bill Shatner was an excellent pick as the Captain and don't think that with anybody else, it wouldn't be the dynamic inpact it still has to this very day, from past, present and future. Bill Shatner is an excellent actor. Much better than that patrick stewart clown in that next generation garbage, which is childish, stupid and should have been cancelled from the very first episode.
Dan Basta Actually from what I've seen of his work, which admittedly is only Star Trek and Dune, Patrick Stewart is a very good actor. This isn't to belittle Shatner. I do agree Shatner does seem a bit better, but I've seen more variety of Shatner's work than I have Stewart's. I was very impressed by Shatner's performance in The Intruder (also released as "I Hate Your Guts", "Shame", and "The Stranger"). I couldn't stand his character, but he played it superbly and did the job he was supposed to do; i.e. make the audience hate the very ground the character walked on. He should have gotten an Academy Award for that performance.
This is hilarious 😂 Spock: “do you know how we choose a mate?” Jim: “my guess is quite logically”😂How they didn’t burst out laughing during this scene😂 They’ve pon to farr this time 👍🏼

Lenard Nimoy did a really good in this scene, acting the part of a stressed out man trying not to go nuts. People make fun of this scene a lot, too bad not too many people see the quality of his acting.
@@cryalot378Considering how stressed out he was, I'd be pretty annoyed too if my captain wasn't getting the hint (since the censors wouldn't allow him to get right to the point 😊).
No such thing as a no fault divorce when this aired, either. Someone had to be at fault and that had to be explained to a judge with testimony and/or evidence. Somebody had to be a cheater, an abuser, neglectful... it couldn't be that you just didn't get along that well.
Back in the 60s, everything was censored. Unlike today where everything is acceptable, whether it should be or not. Television and movies had to be careful what and how things were said and done. Star Trek was known for breaking some of those taboos, by how the scripts were written. Maybe, this world would be a little better if people were more careful what they say and do.
And made it far less interesting and less personal to Spock. The Pon Far is a deeply personal thing to vulcans. They do everything they can to purge themselves of emotion and the Pon Far acts against this making it a bit of an attack on who they try to be as a species. It's an insult to their person that they cannot fight against. It's insulting to them.
@@butterflyjill6887 Well said, ButterflyJill. As time has gone by, I have come to realize how brilliant the entire episode is, and how it makes the Vulcans a thousand times more interesting. LLAP.
Kirk reminds me of Kronk from Emperor's new groove: "Oh right, the Vulcan biology. The biology of Vulcans. The biology specifically of the Vulcan race... That biology?"
This is possibly my favorite original series episode. The idea of individuals who are part of a deeply logical and non-emotional race going through biological mating periods that make them insanely horny is a great concept. I imagine Pon Farr is similar to what my teenage years were like.
Spock on Pon Far. "Captain, imagine the worst case you've ever had of blue balls. The multiply it by 10 to the 4th power. Then imagine your balls being crushed by a vise. That, is Pon Far."
"The Birds and the Bees are not Vulcans," is a hugely funny line! The scene following is perfect. And I will say that James Blish's adaption of this scene was perfect!
I'm sure this episode inspired a lot of fanfic. Spock and Kirk alone on some planet and the ponn farr kicks in and Kirk is the only one who can save Mr Spock. There are some ways you can view this episode as being sort of metaphor for homosexuality and the struggle with the shame.

Sexual frustration is common amongst us humans (if not most of the animal kingdom). Some have better control than others and some are to embarrassed to express one's needs because it's a taboo depending on your upbringing and beliefs. Given Spock's rare uneasiness, I can understand why he had a hard time explaining Pon Farr to Kirk.
0:55 Spock says no outsider knows about Pon Farr and that they do not speak of it, but we hear characters reference it in other series. I think Spock is just treating it like a big secret cuz he's embarrassed.

I'm pretty new to star trek but a Trekkie friend told me they have extremely strong emotion but have learned to keep them in check and think logically because if they let their emotions rule them it'd be insanity.
When I first saw this episode this was the first time I had ever heard of the Pon'Farr the Vulcan mating ritual and the only other time it was ever brought up was in the Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 'Blood Fever' where a member of Voyager's crew a Vulcan ensign was going through his very first Pon'Farr and the ships Emergency Medical Hologram was asking him and Tuvok how they're people deal with it and how like Spock they didn't talk about it and it caused some problems for Vulcans being telepathic and Ensign Vorik caused Lt. B'Elanna Torres to go through the same primal instincts of her Klingon heritage and caused Lt. Tom Paris to get involved in the ritual combat for B'Elanna against Vorik in order to help both of them.
It was a the B plot in the enterprise episode 'Bounty', with T'pol going into it early due to the effects of an alien organism. It's quite worth watching that episode, even if you dislike the rest of the show.
I’m relatively new to Star Trek lore I’ve only watched the new films next gen and voyager but from what I know is the Pon Farr basically just Vulcans getting unbearably horney
I love how the scene deepens when Spock begins to relate Vulcan's most intimate matters, with his statue and red light in his quarters in the background, and the mood music.
Well, he says" no outworlder may know....except those.very few who have been involved." I would guess that means his mom, and a scant handful of other non vulcans who married vulcans.
Dude! You knew this was coming! You had 6 1/2 years to ask for time off. what the hell? Even as a kid this drove me nuts... asking for 2 weeks off for your Vulcan honeymoon/divorce. Lord knows, he probably had the vacation time accrued. Even if he didn't know exactly when, he could have asked to be stationed near Vulcan for a year...
@@djackson4657 this was his first pon Farr, and he was already 37 here. This is way too late so I really wouldn’t blame him for thinking (and secretly hoping) that he would be spared this, at this point in time. He is a hybrid and many things within himself just work differently.
The biology of Vulcans. Vulcan biology. That biology. The one of Vulcans. Yes, Vulcan biology. The biology, uh. That belongs to Vulcans. That biology.
That biology ?
Yes, THAT biology, Kronk...

I often felt this way sitting in classes in high school.
You creep
Theodore Sturgeon was amazing.
So basically Spock had an erection that lasted over 4 hours? He needs medical attention, LMAO.
With green blood
Not enough green blood left to maintain logic.
I'm just mindlessly scrolling through the comments, and for whatever reason this comment had me sounding like I was choking for sec, cackling. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
So.
HOW did Spock human mom take the Pon Far when his dad started wilding out?
I mean isn't that how he was conceived?
She opened her legs wide and showed Sarek her intimate bush
Well, he says" no outworlder may know....except those.very few who have been involved." I would guess that means his mom, and a scant handful of other non vulcans who married vulcans.
This scene is the pinnacle of all the years of Kirk Spock emotional interaction.
"I've gotta spank it every few years Captain" 🤣🤣🤣
I felt similary after 2 weeks of abstinence 😂😂😂
It's a good pick-up line though.
"hey babe, if I don't get any tonight I'm literally gonna die."
I’ve always thought this should’ve been something Kirk would’ve known about Spock. Shipmates but also FRIENDS.
2:32 - Kali playing Simon for the Muppet Show in the background, for those playing along at home.
Imagine just stumbling on Vulcan during Pon Farr
Maybe Zefram Cochrane did that just to have fun with Vulcan ladies
Luv that electric guitar backdrop
I can totally understand it's like talking about sexual relationships between yourself and somebody else is very personal and private
replace that opening music with 1970s porno music
…and the mystery of the green bathroom toilet goo was solved.
Kirk: Just come out and say it, Spock! You need a f**k!
Spock: YES!!
Welcome to Ponhub
Sounds like someone is vacuuming the carpets in the background
Dude! You knew this was coming! You had 6 1/2 years to ask for time off. what the hell? Even as a kid this drove me nuts...
asking for 2 weeks off for your Vulcan honeymoon/divorce. Lord knows, he probably had the vacation time accrued. Even if he didn't know exactly when, he could have asked to be stationed near Vulcan for a year...
@@anon777... Spock has a Vulcan make body ,Vulcan genes dominate human genes
@@djackson4657 this was his first pon Farr, and he was already 37 here. This is way too late so I really wouldn’t blame him for thinking (and secretly hoping) that he would be spared this, at this point in time. He is a hybrid and many things within himself just work differently.

My favorite season 2 episode
