Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country is one of my favorite Trek films. It’s a great finale for the original crew and it’s both well done and also not at the same time (I could do a whole thread on the numerous continuity errors within the film, but I digress). One thing I’ve always wondered is why the galley in the Enterprise is so beat up in the scene where the senior crew debates the use of a phaser as part of the crime against the Klingon Chancellor.

So…. Why is the galley so beat up?

This theory makes too much sense, I love it. One question though why specifically the Yorktown? How do we know it was that specific ship and not any other damaged federation ship?

    The Yorktown is specifically mentioned in the movie and the ill fated captain of the Yorktown reports it to the admiral in this scene:

    Also Star Fleet Admirals being the canonically evil dicks that they are would totally stick Kirk with a messed up haunted ship.

    Edit The scene in question starts at 2:30 for reference.
