Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country is one of my favorite Trek films. It’s a great finale for the original crew and it’s both well done and also not at the same time (I could do a whole thread on the numerous continuity errors within the film, but I digress). One thing I’ve always wondered is why the galley in the Enterprise is so beat up in the scene where the senior crew debates the use of a phaser as part of the crime against the Klingon Chancellor.
So…. Why is the galley so beat up?
TIL the Enterprise A only served 7 years. But yeah, that's plenty of time for cosmetic wear to build up in a well-used galley
Edit: The Enterprise A was commissioned in Voyage Home. According to Memory Alpha Undiscovered Country takes place 7 years later.
There has always been an incongruence around the A where the original point, when it was revealed at the end of four, seems to have been that it was a recommissioned and renamed constitution class that had been recently refitted like the Enterprise was in TMP. But then Shatner came in with five and insisted that it was a brand new ship for some dumbass reason that most people seem to have retconned from the cannon.
