{ Stranger in the night than in the daytime... }

Indeed, the "Kirk's Ass Is In The Sling, Careerwise" has been done
before.  However, Kirk managed to get out of it because of some 
sneaky evidence that popped up at the last minute, saving the day.

Yet, what sneaky evidence can Jim come up with to save his ass this
time?  After all, we all saw the movie: They can't hide anything on us.
          
And, to paraphrase David Gerrold, we all know that Jim's career isn't
a goner.  He's the hero.  We don't tune in to see whether Jim is going
to get out of this mess.  He's OBVIOUSLY going to get out of this mess.
That's why he's the hero!  We all tune in to see HOW he gets out of this
mess.

That's why I'd go see it.  Yeah, Jim's going to get out of it and I
urgently hope he does.  I just want to see how!
