Evil that “It’s a trap” only works with Star Trek.

They had to show their bias somehow ;)

But "It's a wrap!" is a perfectly valid answer for filming either.

Yes, but "it's a trap!" is a star wars reference

But you have to know the details of both franchises to pick the best, so it's a fair clue.

I doubt I would have ever figured "leased" as something being "let out, in a way".

Now you're caught before you realize where you're at

I think you meant Star Wars, since that is where the meme comes from.

No they mean the answer to the clue is "it's a trap" only if you answer "star trek" to the which sci fi is better value.

If you write "Star Wars," then the correct answer is "It's a wrap," even though the Star Wars fan will likely think of "It's a trap" first. If you write "Star Trek," then the correct answer is "It's a trap!" which does not come from Star Trek.
