Cleveland, Ohio Lines: 20 bleep. It seems pretty clear to me that Saavik and the 17 year old spock did in fact have sex. This was Saavik's sacrifice to keeping Spock from going crazy or dying from Pon Far. Later on, Spock becomes very sick and unconscious after he is not able to satisfy his needs every seven years of aging. You will notice at the end of the film that Spock gives a special look to Saavik indicating that he remembers the encounter. Remember that Spock's mind was transferred back from McCoy, but there is no reason that the few experiences and memories that the new body had should be erased. I kind of got the feeling that Spock was trying to integrate the two parts of himself together (both the old Spock and the boy) and that was the reason "only time would tell" if the procedure worked. That's all for now... David Kushner (DMK) ...decvax!cwruecmp!ncoast!dmk
