Talk:Giotto
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference.
why add a note about Kelowitz? There's no evidence that Kelowitz was even involved with security. -- Captain Mike K. Bartel 05:46, 10 Jan 2005 (CET)
[edit] Giotto's rank
I just watched this episode (new CGI version) and not once was he referred to as Lieutenant Commander. He was referred to as Commander in every instance.
- The CGI versions are cut for time, another reason why I don't particularly care for them. The full episode has Kirk refer to Giotto as Lieutenant Commander twice:
- Kirk: Mr. Spock, have Lieutenant Commander Giotto assemble the security troops and arm them with phaser 2.
- Kirk: Lieutenant Commander Giotto?
- Giotto: Giotto here, Captain.
- So, there ya go. :) --From Andoria with Love 16:14, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Giotto's rank is Commander
Well, maybe he was referred to as Lt. Commander, however, his uniform clearly in several shots shows him as a commander with two solid stripes on his sleeve. Also, in the "Devil in the Dark" episode, it's cool to note the solid black phaser II's used by the mining crew, after it was decided that only phaser II would work on the Horta. – The preceding unsigned comment was added by Capt.

- On MA, we tend to take dialogue over visual evidence. See here. This is especially relevant in all these rank cases for these rank mistakes tend to happen a lot in Trek.
