His assumption was based on the "elevator scene" and what Uhura said when the New Spock pimped out...

I say, he was about to or already did it when Kirk and the New Spock were being sent on the away team...

What say you?

I think they were already doing it....hence the quick assignment switch the the Enterprise.....

I do like that twist though!

I dunno??? He knew her and he taught her, but the Spock character has always been "ethical" so it would not seem to me he breached that possibility. That does not go to say he DID NOT want to tap that azz... But he held restraint...

Uhura going off on him before being allowed to board the Enterprise is either

a "quit your yapping thing" (which I think it is)
or the New Spock had tapped it and couldn't deal with Nokia ship to ship nuisance messages (which I don't favor)...

And When did Starfleet Academy breach this "no fraternizing clause" with superior officers, etc... That's what confused me.

Cause there was too much breaching goin' on in that Star Trek movie!!! I'll havta see it again...

Zachary and Chris looked really hot on Weekend Update last Saturday.

I had no idea until I read this that he was in that movie. I was trying to rack my brain to figure out where I had seen "Uhura" in a movie before watching Star Trek. (Yes, I figured it out. Thank you imdb.com.)

Oh and AKA_Monet... throughout the Star Trek series, people of higher rank were getting it on with the others....so that didn't surprise me one bit...

In TOS they did not due to the times of filming and censorship--the fish stopped moving when Cap'n Kirk rolled in... LOL... As for TNG, DS9 and Voyager series, oh yeah, EVERYBODY got busy... I often wondered if Data's stuff vibrated and rotated?

DH and I went to see Star Trek in IMAX last night.

No. No no no. No no no no no no no. It took long-established Star Trek canon, gang-raped it, and then poured sugar into its antimatter chambers.

And, cliche much? You've got the woman giving birth in the middle of a crisis, Kirk running into the cave where Spock just happened to be waiting for him, the ground falling out from under Amanda just a split second before the transporter could lock onto her, OMFG.........

RIP, Star Trek canon.
