[QUOTE]Originally posted by Siegfried: [QB] Spoilers for "Unexpected" and "Broken Bow" $$$ I'd be willing to bet that T'Pol's "condition" would be kept confidential. After all, they did keep Tucker's "condition" a secret until the Klingons forced their hand. When Spock entered pon farr in "Amok Time," I don't think the rest of the crew was ever told the truth about the sidetrip to Vulcan. On the other hand, The Original Series seemed to imply that Spock was one of the few Vulcans in Starfleet. It's possible that McCoy had little treating or dealing with Vulcans at that point in his career. It's also possible that McCoy may have exhibited the same bitterness towards Vulcans that the navigator in "Corbomite Manuever" and the doctor in "Galileo Seven" did. It was only after working with Spock and warming up to him that he decided to brush up on Vulcan physiology. This could be why McCoy didn't know enough to help Spock in "Amok Time" but did to save Sarek in "Journey to Babel." I see now that Alshrim slipped in a post as I was posting. Shame on you! :) Actually, what you say makes sense. Vulcans, and T'Pol in particular, seems to have little experience in dealing with humans. On Earth, she admitted to never leaving the Vulcan Compound. She also admitted that wanted nothing more than to leave Enterprise at the end of "Broken Bow"s mission. Now, she's having to deal with a species she already sees as human but has to work and live alongside the irrational, illogic, and emotional humans. Her tolerance level is going to be fairly low at this point. [/QB][/QUOTE]
