The Man Trap - S1-E2
Yeoman Janice Rand: Hello Beauregard. How are you today, darling?
Sulu: Her name's Gertrude.
Yeoman Janice Rand: No, it's a he-plant. A girl can tell.
Sulu: Why do people have to call inanimate objects, she? Like um, she's a fast ship.
Yeoman Janice Rand: He is not an inanimate object. He's so animate he makes me nervous. (00:23:21)

The Man Trap - S1-E2
Uhura: Message, Captain. Starship based on Current Four requesting explanation of our delay here, sir. Space Commander Dominguez says we have supplies he urgently needs.
Capt. Kirk: Tell Jose he'll get his chili peppers when we get there. Tell him the're prime Mexican reds, I hand-picked them myself. But he won't die if he goes a few more days without them. Got it?
Uhura: Got it, Captain. (00:14:00)

Continuity mistake: After Spock and Kirk attempt to trap Charlie into a room with a force field, Charlie makes the wall disappear and then freezes Kirk and Spock in place. Spock has his right hand against the wall at about chest level with himself. The camera cuts to a closer angle and suddenly his hand is higher up, about face level. (00:39:47)

Continuity mistake: When Kirk begins to question Charlie about the melted chess pieces, there is a close up of Kirk showing light cast down him him with his chest void of any shadows. When cut to a wide angle, he suddenly has shadows on his chest from lighting changes. (00:22:36)

Continuity mistake: Uhura starts to sing and walk around Spock as he plays. In Spock's close ups, the wall behind him is pink and green, but in the further shots the walls are a blue color with nothing behind him that could have been making the green and pink colors in the close ups. (00:10:50)

Audio problem: When Uhura apologizes to Spock for interrupting him playing his instrument, her word is cut off mid speak between cuts. She says "I'm sorr-." But it's close enough it easily got past the editor or the editor cut her word off too soon not realizing. (00:09:59)

Continuity mistake: Just before Uhura begins to hum with Spock's playing of his instrument, she is leaning over a table where they are playing cards. She has one hand on her cheek and then brings the other up to her face as well. When it cuts to a side angle, she's suddenly bringing her hand up to her face again in a repeated action. (00:09:47)

Continuity mistake: After Bones finishes examining Charlie, they move to the door and Charlie begins to put his jacket back on. In the side shot, he gets it on and begins to adjust it around his shoulders when it cuts to a frontal view. Suddenly his arms are relaxed like he's already had the jacket on for a few seconds and in a comfortable position. (00:05:18)

The Man Trap - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: When the creature makes it's way through the ship and finds McCoy's room, it stops near the wall with a red vent behind it. It changes back to Nancy in a dissolve cut, but suddenly it's much closer to the walk and is now closer to the vent, something that would not have happened by a simple morph like seen before. (00:28:45)

The Man Trap - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: When Kirk is telling Crater that he needs him and his wife to stay on their ship till he finds out what killed his man, Kirk has his arms crossed. When Crater steps up to him and the angle changes, Kirk's arms are suddenly down at his side. This continuously changes back and forth between shots. (00:18:07)

The Man Trap - S1-E2
Other mistake: Sulu is asking Janice why people call inanimate objects "she"? Then gives an example. He says "Like, she's a fast ship." But the subtitles get this wrong and have him saying "Like, she's a bad ship". (00:23:30)

The Man Trap - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Kirk jokes with Bones after they land about flowers and is holding some hay or grass in his hands. After Bones makes the comment about bribing girls, Kirk lowers his hand off screen but with the grass still in it. It jump cuts to a different angle from further away and suddenly his hand is empty, and there is no grass on the ground where he could have dropped it. (00:00:57)
