Line 17:
* [[Recycled in Space]]: A [[World War II]] submarine movie... IN SPACE!
* [[Stealth in Space]]: The [[Trope Codifier]] for ''Trek'', if not all of Science Fiction.
* [[Tear Jerker]]: Only one person aboard the Enterprise doesn't survive the battle - {{spoiler|the man who was going to be married earlier that day}}. The coda in the ship's chapel drives it home.
* [[Worthy Opponent]]: The Romulan Commander. He's only attacking Starfleet bases because he was ordered to test a new weapon (and to test the Federation's vulnerability). He'd rather not start any more wars, and just wants to go home.
** The Commander quickly recognizes Kirk as one, by the fact that Kirk does a lot of things ''he'' would do.
