Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country is one of my favorite Trek films. It’s a great finale for the original crew and it’s both well done and also not at the same time (I could do a whole thread on the numerous continuity errors within the film, but I digress). One thing I’ve always wondered is why the galley in the Enterprise is so beat up in the scene where the senior crew debates the use of a phaser as part of the crime against the Klingon Chancellor.
So…. Why is the galley so beat up?


If you were to follow the Yorktown’s name’s history, the original USS Yorktown was damaged, then repaired within 3 days at Hawaii, but then sailed out hard only to be sunk in its next battle.
