Changes: Connors

Revision as of 14:46, 24 October 2015

Connors was a male Human Starfleet crewmember in the 23rd century. He served in the command division aboard the USS Enterprise in 2266 under the command of Captain James T. Kirk, during the historic five-year mission.

That same year, he met Ruth Bonaventure in sickbay, after the Enterprise had intercepted Harry Mudd's cargo ship. He was distracted by her beauty. Doctor Leonard McCoy asked him to leave before she set off some unusual readings on the medical scanner. (TOS: "Mudd's Women")

Appendices

Background information

The duty jumpsuit Connors wore had no indication of rank and was worn by both non-commissioned and commissioned officers; therefore, his rank cannot be determined from his uniform.

Connors was an uncredited role played by Eddie Paskey, a regular extra who served as a set stand-in throughout the course of the original Star Trek series. "Mudd's Women" marked the only time when Paskey's character wore the generic green duty jumpsuit and was called Connors. This was due to the fact that Paskey's character did not have a set identity until he was called "Leslie" in "The Conscience of the King" and subsequent episodes.

Apocrypha

PP Connors — Connors in "The Crier in Emptiness"

According to the comic book, "The Crier in Emptiness", Connors was a navigator aboard the Enterprise who enjoyed solitude and quietness. He spoke with a heavy accent and could skillfully play the Edoan Elisiar, a musical instrument. By stardate 5444.9, he was a lieutenant and wore a sciences division uniform.

He was depicted in the comic book in some physically awkward poses for a Human, possibly indicating that the artist originally drew Arex, the Edosian navigator from the Animated Series. References to his name in speech balloons indicate that it was once several letters shorter, suggesting that he may or may not be the same Connors from "Mudd's Women".

-Connors was an uncredited role played by [[Eddie Paskey]], a regular extra who served as a set [[stand-in]] throughout the course of the original ''[[Star Trek: The Original Series|Star Trek]]'' series.

Also, this episode marks the first time Paskey's character was called by name and the only time he was called Connors. This was due to the fact that Paskey's character did not have a set identity until he was called "[[Leslie]]" in {{e|The Conscience of the King}} and afterwards.

-Since Paskey portrayed both Connors and Leslie, there is [[Talk:Leslie#Removed|ambiguity]] about their relationship to each other. While it is possible that they could be the same person with McCoy giving him the nickname of "Connors", it is also possible that the two were separate individuals who were either related to another or who were just coincidental look-alikes.

Since some speech balloons indicate that his name was once several letters shorter, and since his speech displays a thick accent, it is possible that he is not the same Connors from {{e|Mudd's Women}}.
