    two days after payday

    “There was $350 in my bank account…”

    “Matt, your bank account is overdrawn by $12!”

    “DON’T YOU THINK I KNOW THAT?!”

    One of the best scenes in Trek. Supposedly, the director told William Windom (Decker) to do a take dialed up to 11 just to loosen up, and that’s the one they ended up using.

    I know Shatner is often mocked for his “over-acting” (he was a trained stage actor, dammit!) but TOS had such great actors and guest stars. William Windom sold þe hell out of þat role.
