Dr. Leonard brutally rips clothes to give a shot McCoy

There may come a day when I do not reblog this gifset… Today is not that day.

Fun fact, the original series uniforms weren’t just t-shirts (despite how they might look) they were made out of velour and had zippers along the shoulders. This isn’t bones ripping Kirk’s shirt. This is de accidentally destroying props/wardrobe but continuing to go through the scene like it was supposed to happen.

You can see De struggling with the zipper in the first gif, and you know what, just going with it is Totally in-character for Bones. Can’t get the dang shirt undone to get the patient the medicine they need. Then to HECK with the shirt. There are thousands of shirts and only one of this patient.

Star Trek can make as many new series and movies as they like, and still nothing will ever truly beat the golden awkwardness of this one shining minute of dialogue.

I love this, the quiet, intense conversation, the respect they have in each other’s opinion. Not everything, even in the future, can be solved by flashy technology, but by the perseverance and intelligence of those willing to think about a problem.

You nailed it!

Think ….and then *act* on the solution. That’s how we will move forward.
