Who says Scotty had VD in the Star Trek II movie? My understanding of
that short exchange when Kirk arrived for inspection, was that Scotty
had a hang-over! I can't recall the actual dialog, but when asked,
McCoy made it clear that Scotty had been drinking a bit too much. Did
I misunderstand? 

Also, can anyone elaborate on the following two 'mistakes' (for want of
a better term) in the movie:

1. Khan recognizes Chekov on Ceti-Alpha 5, yet Chekov was not part of
   the crew yet when Khan appeared in the TV series;

2. After Spock's death, David came to Kirk and discussed how Kirk always
   avoided facing death. Twice during that exchange, he referred to Lt.
   Saavik as 'he', as in 'he said', or 'he was right, you never have
   faced death'.

The first 'mistake' was printed in the newspaper, but I can't find anything
to confirm it. The second mistake both I and my wife caught; did anyone else?
