Mr. Adventure (Scott McGinnis)

Character Analysis

This lieutenant may have a name in the extended Trek universe, but he'll always be Mr. Adventure to us. A member of the Old Station personnel, he got his name because he wants adventure in the great wild somewhere and is dismayed that Uhura, a space veteran, would choose a provincial life in the "hind end of space."

So, he's basically a snotty, arrogant Belle.

Mr. Adventure's adventure kicks in when Admiral Kirk and his crew arrive to, um, borrow the transporter. Uhura holds him at gunpoint and forces him into the closet. Judging by the look on his face, he probably imagined he'd be the one holding the phaser during his adventure.

Oh, well, beggars can't be choosers. We part ways as he settles comfortably in the closet.
