missing Star Trek 2 scenes


Back in Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan, there was subplot in the movie about Chekov and Terrell snooping around Khan’s cargo containers. Chekov and Terrell stand near the cargo holds, and Chekov notices something, a face looking at him through a window in the hold.

You see there was suppose to be a child with Khan’s band of outlaws. The message boards noted that there was listed a prop of a painting of Khan, his wife and a baby. This gives us edivnce that Khan was supposed to have a child in the film. I know the scenes below were filmed. Here’s what makes it creepy, the child gets killed with the rest of the Reliant crew when it blows up, where is what’s worst, the child was suppose to claim up to the Genisis device and touch it right before it blows up, very creepy. It would have changed the tone of the movie completely if they kept it in. Here are the scenes the picture of the child is above.

Tentatively they come over to it, looking around -

As Chekov looks at the porthole, a face suddenly looks back! It is the face of a CHILD! The Apparition scares the daylights out of Chekov -- and us. He screams.

TERRELL

What is it?

He comes clumsily over --

CHEKOV

A face! I saw -- it was like a

child --

He points. The porthole is empty.

TERRELL

You're crazy -- !

CHEKOV

I saw it -- !

TERRELL

There's an air-lock.

He points and they go into the airlock.

on its side in the sand: the walls are not the floor,

etc. All in crookedness - like its owner. On the

floor, smiling at them (i.e., the wall) is a BABY.

They wander as they talk, picking up objects that be-

speak a fairly sophisticated ad hoc environment: a

laboratory in one hold; a kitchen; A LARGE SAND TANK

filled with disgusting CETI EELS.

ABRUPTLY A SOUND -- They start: CHILD'S GURGLE.

CHEKOV

(terrified)

I told you! I told you I saw a --

TERRELL

Ssssh!

213A INT. RELIANT TRANSPORTER ROOM 213A

There sits the Genesis torpedo: lights start blinking

in response. As we watch, the CHILD we met on Ceti Alpha

walks to the torpedo and smiles at the lights.
