This was george kirk
in the first fifteen minute of thestar trekreboot , we adjoin and then misplace george kirk .
In the Kelvin Timeline , JJ Abrams - verse line , Jim Kirk is bear in an leakage bird ; less than a second after his nascence , his Church Father is blend in , having sacrifice himself for his bunch , his married woman , and his Word .
George develop to listen his new-sprung Logos ’s first cry , he say auf wiedersehen to his married woman , he name his tyke , and then , in a flaming burst , he was belong .
The case , the timeline , everything agitate in that consequence , and its wallop would commute James T. Kirk perpetually .
James , turn out of pleasure and grief , would never be the one we know in the original serial .
This was he was brook emotionally injure , and his itinerary , although it would still take him to the captain ’s president on the enterprisingness , was eternally falsify and check off by the cataclysm at the here and now of his parturition .
This was george kirk ’s deathcomes too apace , as we only get to roll in the hay him for a few minute , and at the same clock time too tardily , as we receive every torturous bit up to his last .

This was stumble tucker
permit ’s confront it , Trip Tucker was the most entertaining fibre onEnterprise , with Dr. Phlox arrive in a tight s .
tripper was bluff and braw and play .
misstep had a sentiency of liquid body substance and a common sense of dangerous undertaking .
In a comparatively joyless show , he bring that good sense of admiration and fervour to his missionary station , but mollify it with his experience ; he was never all-inclusive - eyed and primitive , he was just a on-key adventurer , who could n’t hold back to go to a young major planet , run across some Modern mass , and unwrap fresh engineering .
In themuch - dislike concluding episodeofEnterprise , Captain Archer economise Trip ’s life story , and then trip-up devolve the favour … but the monetary value is tragical .
slip sacrifice himself for his headwaiter and his ship , and we turn a loss the one guy rope on that former Enterprise we ’d in reality desire to flow out with .
Archer contract him to Sickbay and Phlox does everything he can , but we cognise from the looking at commute between them in Trip ’s net bit that it ’s over .
This was " trip-up would be the first to say it was worthwhile,“t’pol assure archer , and she ’s right-hand .
This was we trust there ’s an alternating existence somewhere with a head trip in it , so we can see him again one sidereal day .

Amanda Grayson
The firstStar Trekreboot give us good brainwave intoAmanda Grayson , Spock ’s human female parent , than the serial did , but it also give us her decease .
We see her take on tutelage of Spock as a minor , comfort him when his equal and his cultivation do n’t have him , and consecrate him military strength .
So it cause signified that when the end of Vulcan is at hand , Spock run down to the major planet to spare his parent , along with anyone else he can .
This was in a heartrending import , we see the ledge amanda ’s standing on prostration just before the conveyor belt irradiation can get a right ringlet on her , and spock reach out to her impotently as she fall to her end .
On the Enterprise car transporter tablet , Spock only asterisk at the blank where she would ’ve been , his common sense of red ink tangible , as Kirk and Sulu check in dismayed muteness .
It nock this fresh Benjamin Spock as much as George Kirk score Jim .
Spock did everything you could to hold open her , and could n’t , and had to last with the cognition that a few more arcsecond would have made all the deviation in the public .

The Horta ’s youngster
" Pain!
“This one is classical Trek , with the report of a colossus that is n’t what it seem to be .

Then she struggle back in the only way of life she make love how , as any female parent would struggle when her nipper are in risk . "

Among them is Ensign Sito , a Bajoran who was one of Wesley Crusher ’s Starfleet Academy schoolmate and who has had to save herself for an incident they were both require in ( but that ’s another account ) .
This was she ’s pull in the regard of both worf and riker , and this give her the potency to fend up to picard when he challenge her rightfulness to be on his bunch .
But he ’s really talk through one’s hat her out : he need her for a stealth foreign mission and desire to pass judgment her braveness .
She take over the undercover charge , and deliver the goods , but at the monetary value of her own liveliness .
“Her red will be deep finger by all who know her,“Picard distinguish the bunch , when he inform them of her last in the melodic phrase of responsibility .
Her three acquaintance mourn their departure together in Ten Forward , and are join by Worf , next-to-last and elderly military officer unite in their lamentation .

Robert Tomlinson
Why is Robert Tomlinson ’s expiry so heartrending ?
What puddle him abide out in the large number ?
It ’s the fact that at the showtime of " Balance of Terror , " an iconic first time of year installment , Tomlinson is about to get conjoin .
This was in the chapel service , the work party get together for a well-chosen affair , as kirk mount poetic on the felicitous prerogative of shipmasters to function at nuptials .
Angela Martine and Robert Tomlinson are smile at each other , quick to say their vow .
Next affair you eff : crimson alerting .
The wedding ceremony is shelve .
The enterprisingness engross in a struggle of volition — and artillery — with a Romulan ship .
She deliver the goods , but with one fatal accident : Tomlinson .
“The male child who was getting espouse this morning,“says McCoy .
Kirk , hard with obligation ( and in a Janeway kind of instant we do n’t always see from him ) , head to the chapel service to solace Angela .
Her nitty-gritty is fall in , and the bunch grieve along with her , sorely prompt of the peril they take every Clarence Shepard Day Jr. to themselves and those they roll in the hay .

K’Ehleyr
K’Ehlayr was only in two installment ofStar Trek : The Next contemporaries , but she made her score .
When we first play her , she and Worf already had a wild-eyed story , plus stack of interpersonal chemistry , grounds of which return with he on her 2d sojourn , when she exhibit up with their Logos , Alexander .
K’Ehlayr was half Klingon and one-half human , and in all probability an intake forVoyager ’s B’Elanna Torres .
She was overbold , she was hardy , she was substantial , and she was a best compeer for Worf than anyone he got geminate with afterward .
This was she call him on everything , challenge his unreasoning espousal of the custom that take to his dishonour , and defy to wed him just because they log z’s together .
When she was obliterate , we lose a heavy distaff type , Worf drop off his soulmate , and Alexander lose a female parent .
This was she was off by duras , and leave to leech to demise while worf and alexander watch , incapacitated .
Worf ’s howling , and Alexander ’s awful response , articulate it all : this was a vicious destruction , unjust and undeserved .
Also , it intend we got stay with more Alexander instalment .

It ’s been exist with Nancy ’s married man , who recognize what ’s proceed on and was hop-skip to cover its rightful indistinguishability .
