=== Tropes seen in ''The Search for Spock'' include: ===
* [[Aliens Speaking English]]: Although the Klingons are shown speaking their own language at first, [[Translation Convention|for simplicity's sake they speak English to each other]] for the majority of the film. Only [[Big Bad|Kurge]] and [[Mauve Shirt|Maltz]] are shown to actually be able to speak English though. {{spoiler|This becomes a brief plot point when the Klingon troopers board the Enterprise and don't recognize the computer counting down from 6...5...4...}}.

* [[All There in the Manual]]: Kruge's Bird of Prey has more in common style-wise with a Romulan ship (bird like) versus a Klingon ship (boxy and utilitarian). As a way to use [[Prop Recycling]] in the original series an episode suggested a brief Klingon / Romulan treaty where they shared technology and ship designs; it allowed them to represent the Romulans by using a (previously made) Klingon D-7 cruiser. This brief alliance (the two factions are later very antagonistic to each other) is also the source of Klingon cloaking technology and the Bird of Prey ship design first seen in this movie. Incidentally, that ship style became far more recognizable as a Klingon vessel later in the franchise.
