Nitpick Description


Submitted by Nitpicker : 36210
Series : Star Trek
Episode : Return to Tomorrow
Nitpick Category : Technological Fact
Nitpick Number : 2099
Approximate time of nitpick : first 10-15 minutes
Summary : All of Sargons race is dead??
Details : \n Sargon explains to Kirk that for every super advanced race there comes an ultimate battle (or something to that effect)that humans have yet to experience. He also says that it is possible that humans and several other races quite possible started from there own settlers. Okay so here's the nit, if Sargon's race was the space faring race that was so far flung through out the galaxy then how come the destruction of the one home planet wiped out all but 3 of their race!? What about all the other planets that got colonized by them?

Sargon's people did not colonize the Alpha Quadrant by occupying numerous worlds. Rather, they merely introduced their own DNA into the gene pools of various planets. Thus the destruction of their homeworld effectively destroyed their race.

To discover what happened to their genetic material, and find out what Sargon's people actually looked like, see ST:TNG, episode THE CHASE.

NONE of this happened in the episode. In the episode Sargon even states that "perhaps your own legend of an Adam and Eve were two of our travelers". He did not say "perhaps your own legend of an Adam and Eve were two sets of our DNA introduced to the locals"! The definition of nitpick in the FAQ section (which I highly recommend the commentor re-read)states that you can use discrepences between series. Your comment belongs on the episode of TNG that you are getting all this from. It is THAT episode which contradicts this TOS episode and not the other way around.
