CLAPPER OF THE WEEK: 1968's "REQUIEM FOR METHUSELAH"

This week's Clapper is from the great third season episode, "Requiem for Methuselah", a story that featured a five-thousand-year-old man who had evidently been a number of famous men throughout history. Exactly how he pulled off that feat was kind of left up in the air. Kind of like this clapper shot. It shows our three main characters in various states of unreadiness. Nimoy seems to be eating something while Shatner is apparently bored with the whole thing. Only De Kelley seems to be ready for the scene to begin. "Dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor, not an actor!"

Clapper info: December 2, 1968 / Scene 26A / Take 3.
