Storyline:Chekov and Terrell were beamed down to the inhospitable surface of Ceti Alpha VI (they didn""t know they had actually landed on Ceti Alpha V) to check for signs of life, where they were confronted by genetically-engineered, bare-chested superhuman Khan Noonien Singh (Ricardo Montalban) of the late 20th century [Khan once was a powerful ruler over SE Asia on Earth that threatened theEnterprise, but was defeated and escaped in a cryogenic sleeper ship - it was found adrift in space by Kirk]; they learned that Captain Kirk had exiled Khan to the planet 15 years earlier; the vengeful Khan, sounding like Shakespeare""s King Lear, led a group of survivors - the crew of theSS Botany Bay, marooned on Ceti Alpha V on the "barren sand heap" (the wasteland was caused by an explosion on Ceti Alpha VI that shifted the planet""s orbit and its ecosystem - "everything was laid waste"); Khan blamed Kirk for the death of his beloved wife due to a parasitic, insanity-causing Ceti eel, which he also implanted into the ears of Chekov and Terrell to control their minds.Unusual places, unusual love affairs.I am a most strange and extraordinary person."She idolizes screen sirens, and is an aspiring actress herself: "I""m gonna be a great film star.That is, if booze and sex don""t get me first....Oh, I know I can sing, but what I really want to be is an actress." She enjoys showing Brian one of her favorite past-times - screaming under noisy train tracks.BackgroundThe Bride of Frankenstein(1935), a classic masterpiece of 1930s horror films, appeared as a superior sequel to the original prototypeFrankenstein (1931).The next tangerine-colored scene - a long-shot view of the burning hot Arabian desert at sunrise - is juxtaposed to the previous scene by an abrupt cut, presenting the idea that Lawrence""s pleasurable masochism will now be displaced into the heated political/military situation in Arabia.Man was born of the ape.There""s still an ape curled up inside of every man, the beast that must be whipped into submission, the savage that has to be shackled in chains.
