As a little kid, I remember this being a pretty hot scene. The interracial aspect of it never crossed my mind. They made one of those great vicious couples.

I remember seeing France Nuyen in that episode when I was a little kid watching Star Trek in reruns. I liked how ethnic she looked, her spirit, how exotically beautiful she was, down to the great hairpiece - which was ahead of its time.
I remember Whoopi Goldberg commenting on Lt. Uhura. She says she remembers thinking, "At least one of us made it." :)
I love Star Trek.

France Nuyen as the Dolman of (Something) was certainly one of the hottest of Kirk's women. A memorable scene!
Star Trek will never be topped for tacky, lovable, over-the-top greatness. :-*
