| abstract | - Janice Rand nacque nel 2232, entrò nella molto giovane nella Flotta Stellare e vi prestò servizio per almeno trenta anni. Nell'anno 2266 servì a bordo della USS Enterprise sotto il comando del capitano James T. Kirk in qualità di attendente del capitano. L'alloggio di Rand era ubicato dapprima nella stanza "3C 46" sul ponte 12, (TOS: "Il duplicato") e successivamente presso la stanza "3F 125". (TOS: "Il naufrago delle stelle")
- Rand was a non-commissioned officer serving aboard the USS Enterprise in 2266, under the command of Captain James T. Kirk. She was assigned as the captain's personal yeoman by Starfleet Headquarters. (TOS: "The Corbomite Maneuver" ) Rand was first quartered in room 3C 46 on Deck 12. (TOS: "The Enemy Within" ) She was later moved to room 3F 125. (TOS: "Charlie X" ) Initially, the fact that Starfleet had assigned a female yeoman to his command annoyed Captain Kirk. Much to his surprise, Rand delivered dietary salad to him, incorrectly believing he was aware his diet card had recently been changed by Doctor McCoy. Furthermore, the way Rand attended to Kirk at first frustrated him but, moments later, he thanked her. To that, Rand politely replied he was welcome, then exited, which left Kirk and McCoy to comment about her during her absence. (TOS: "The Corbomite Maneuver" ) In the final draft script of "The Corbomite Maneuver" (dated 3 May 1966 ), Rand served Kirk a bowl of soup, rather than dietary salad, but Kirk's surprised reaction to the food was also written into the script. By way of explanation, Rand stated she had ordered it for him. She was anguished and surprised when Kirk headed away to the bridge without finishing his soup, though McCoy advised her, "You keep after him." In the second revised final draft of the teleplay for "The Corbomite Maneuver" (dated 20 May 1966), the discussion about Rand that Kirk and McCoy speak following her departure was slightly longer; Kirk began to say to McCoy, "The first mistake this yeoman makes..." but a smiling McCoy interrupted, answering, "She won't." Soon thereafter, Rand heated a pot of coffee. Since the power was out in the Enterprise's galley, she used a phaser to heat the pot. Rand then served the hot coffee to the bridge personnel. (TOS: "The Corbomite Maneuver" ) Rand is shown serving the coffee on the bridge, but not heating it. In the version of the bridge scene from the final draft script of "The Corbomite Maneuver", she admitted to having heard, along with the rest of the Enterprise's crew, interaction between Kirk and the Balok puppet. Rand also made it clear she had made the coffee in an attempt to "keep the faith", which Kirk thanked her for in addition to the coffee itself. An artist as a hobby, Rand had several paintings she had created hanging in her quarters aboard the Enterprise. (TOS: "The Enemy Within" ) At one point in 2266, Rand was sitting at the office area of Captain Kirk's quarters, holding a batch of crew manifest microtapes when Kirk arrived. She was unaware that, due to a transporter malfunction, the captain had been split into two distinctly different versions of Kirk, one of whom was weak and indecisive whereas the other was bestial and lustful. Without knowing the newcomer was actually the former manifestation of Kirk, Rand gave him the manifest records and, interrupted by him, was summarily dismissed. This scene wasn't included in any drafts of the story outline nor the script for "The Enemy Within" apart from the revised final draft of the episode's teleplay. Soon thereafter, Rand was sought by the other version of Kirk, who hungered for her while drunk on Saurian brandy. So, the inebriated duplicate Kirk entered her quarters and laid in wait for her to return. Later, she returned to her quarters and was attending to her hair in a mirror, all the while believing she was alone, when she was suddenly startled to see the person she believed to be the whole Captain Kirk emerging from the shadows in her bedroom holding a bottle of Saurian brandy. Rand was surprised to the point of speechlessness – meanwhile under the impression her visitor was Kirk himself – when the duplicate Kirk began speaking to her intimately. He amorously mentioned to her the feelings they'd been hiding, claiming she was "too beautiful to ignore," "too much woman," and that they had both been "pretending too long." Rand screamed, however, when he suddenly grabbed her and began kissing her. While she was fighting back, he pushed and pinned her to the floor and attempted to rape her; but Rand fought back in self-defense, leaving a large scratch on the duplicate Kirk's face, a distinguishing feature which ultimately helped the crew differentiate between the two Kirk "halves." The situation was resolved, and the two halves of Kirk were merged in the transporter. (TOS: "The Enemy Within" ) Rand's efficient work ethic was observed by the real Kirk, while he grew to respect her as a crewmember and friend. Despite their professional relationship, an undercurrent of sexual attraction remained between the two. Rand's feelings for Kirk couldn't be requited by him, however, due to his position as ship's captain. Nonetheless, in certain crises, Rand and Kirk were instinctively drawn together and reached out for each other. (TOS: "The Naked Time" , "Balance of Terror" , "Miri" ) According to script sources, Rand already felt drawn to Kirk by the time of "The Enemy Within". The final draft teleplay of that installment remarked about Rand, "She is obviously attracted to the Captain." The revised final draft of the episode's script instead stated about her relationship with Kirk, "She's conditioned herself to maintain aplomb in his presence [....] She has hidden her attraction to the Captain for too long to change her attitude, play female, [...] suddenly." During her service aboard the Enterprise, Rand developed a close relationship with several officers and crewmembers, including Lieutenants Uhura and Sulu. Rand frequently struck up conversations with, and delivered meals to, Enterprise officers other than Captain Kirk, and she accompanied them throughout the ship. She enjoyed a more informal relationship with them as compared to the professional relationship she maintained with the captain, which implied she was doing it out of friendship rather than an assigned duty as a yeoman. (TOS: "The Man Trap" ) In an ultimately omitted scene from the final draft script of "The Man Trap", Rand had a chance encounter with Kirk in a corridor, while she was carrying a tray she intended to give to Sulu because, as she explained to Kirk, he had "missed mess call." She asked Kirk if he needed her but he declined, so she continued on her way to see Sulu. After a waterborne virus spread through the Enterprise, affecting the emotions of the crew, Kirk suddenly shouted to Spock, "I have a beautiful yeoman!" Later, in the center seat on the bridge, befuddled by the virus, he reached a hand out to his "beautiful yeoman" standing next to him looking away at the screen and whispered under his breath, "No beach to walk on," meaning he and Rand, in other circumstances, might have had a life together. (TOS: "The Naked Time" ) In the final draft script of "The Naked Time", Rand at one point left a briefing to bring Kirk and his fellow senior officers some coffee, on Kirk's request. Because that dialogue was ultimately excised, Rand, in the final version of the scene, seems to suddenly disappear from the briefing, her abrupt absence left unexplained. Later that year, orphaned teenager Charles Evans came aboard the Enterprise. Rand's maternal instincts were drawn out by the troubled boy, and she quickly befriended Evans, hoping to help him ease back into regular life. Evans, the sole survivor of a transport crash, had little experience with other Humans and quickly became infatuated with Rand. She, unsure how to deal with Evans' crush, asked Captain Kirk to speak to the boy on her behalf. Soon thereafter, the Enterprise crew discovered Evans' secret – while Evans was alone on Thasus, the mysterious Thasian race had taken pity on the boy and granted Evans special powers. Rand turned down Evans' advances, so he literally made her disappear from the Enterprise. The Thasians intervened and quickly returned Evans to Thasus. After her return to the Enterprise, Rand was shocked and troubled by the Thasians' actions. Having seen how desperately Evans wanted to stay aboard the ship, Rand confided to Kirk her feelings of friendship for the boy. (TOS: "Charlie X" ) Yeoman Rand was among the most popular female members of the Enterprise's crew, second only to Lieutenant Uhura, who was her good friend. (TOS: "Charlie X" ) She was known for her compassion and thoughtfulness toward others. Rand was regarded highly by Kirk for her hard work and diligence. In 2266, the Enterprise played cat and mouse with a Romulan ship in the Neutral Zone. When Kirk was in his quarters resting during a lull in the battle, Rand was able to enter without knocking to check up on him and found him lying in bed. Alone with the captain, she was hoping to console him, as he was preoccupied by the potential for a second Romulan war, so she offered to bring him food or coffee to help him. Rand was on the bridge, with Kirk, when the Romulans fired a plasma torpedo at the Enterprise. As the torpedo got closer to the ship, Rand immediately walked up close behind the captain for protection, and rested her chin on his shoulder. For a very brief moment, Kirk protested, but when the torpedo was just seconds from hitting the ship, Kirk took Rand into his arms for protection. (TOS: "Balance of Terror" ) During one mission, Rand, Kirk, and other members of a landing party were trapped on Earth Two; adults on the planet had quickly developed a virus which had been accidentally as a result of a life prolongation project conducted there. Eventually, Rand began showing signs of the disease. Alone in a corridor with the captain, crying and upset, she found comfort in his arms. Miri, a teenage girl whom the team had befriended, witnessed this, became jealous of Rand, and later briefly betrayed them by having her abducted by the other children. Kirk, under stress from the disease, became preoccupied with Rand's whereabouts and was desperate to find her, affectionately using her first name whenever he referred to her. (TOS: "Miri" ) Several reasons have been stated for Rand's abrupt departure during the first season, including the character's relationship with Kirk, where "the network insisted that the good captain should have many girl friends and romances, all to be provided by a succession of female guest stars, so Yeoman Rand faded from sight. (Roddenberry stated many times in the intervening years that he had been mistaken in yielding to network pressure, and should have retained [her] on the series.)" (The Making of Star Trek: The Motion Picture) David Gerrold included Rand in his outline for his story premise titled "The Fuzzies," which was an early draft of "The Trouble with Tribbles" . Upon reading the premise, Gene L. Coon crossed out Rand's name and wrote "No" next to it on the outline because Grace Lee Whitney, as Rand, would not be back for the second season. When Gerrold asked him why, Coon responded, "She transferred to another ship." (The Trouble with Tribbles) In The Longest Trek: My Tour of the Galaxy, published several years before her death, Grace Lee Whitney admitted to her ghost-writer that she had endured sexual assaults, and that these had awakened her latent chemical dependencies and behavioral compulsions, which she had needed years to force into remission. They had also led to her dismissal from the cast of TOS.
- Initially, Kirk captain was surprised who Starfleet had assigned to yeoman feminine to its commando. Nevertheless, after seeing ethical the efficient ones of the work of the Randes in the action, Kirk came respects like a member and friend of the equipment. In spite of its professional relation, undercurrent of the sexual attraction remained between both. Kirk, nevertheless, could not requite that the Rand of the sensations felt for him, due to its position like captain of the ship. Nevertheless, they strongly attracted it towards her, who made obvious in exhausting situations. (COUGH: "the Maneuver De Corbomite") The Rand of Yeoman was between the most popular members of the equipment of the company, secondly only to Uhura lieutenant, who was her good friend. (COUGH: "Charlie X") knew for their compassion and thoughtfulness towards others. During a tense pillar, whereas the company played the "oposum" with a ship of Romulan in the neutral zone, the Rand made a point to visit Kirk in its rooms. Hoping to console Kirk, that she was worried about the potential for one second war of Romulan, it offered to bring the food or the coffee to him. (COUGH: "balance of the terror") When an evil duplicate of Kirk captain was created during a malfuncionamiento of the transporter, their beastly one and half lustful was drawn to the Rand. The tried duplicate to assault sexual the Rand, demanding she was "too beautiful not to make case" and "too much woman". Rand not only defended, but left a great scratch in the face of the duplicate, that helped the equipment to distinguish between Kirk "halves both". The situation was solved, and two halves of Kirk were combined together in the transporter. (COUGH: "the Enemy Inside") More ahead than year, the orphaned lazy adolescent Charles Evans came on board from the company. The worried boy outside drew towards the maternales instincts of the Randes, and she befriended quickly Evans, hoping to help him to facilitate again within regular life. Evans, the unique survivor of a collapse of the transport, had little experience with other human beings and quickly arrived to be enamored with the Rand. Uncertain how to take care of the accumulation of Evans, Rand requested that Kirk captain spoke to the boy in his favor. Soon after that, the equipment of the company discovered the secret of Evans - whereas Evans was single in Thasus, the mysterious race of Thasian had taken the compassion in the boy and granted to Evans the special energies. In an adjustment of the rage and of I itched, Evans used these superhuman capacities against the equipment, giving returned to one they crewwoman in a lizard and clearing the faces of some smaller officials. When the given Rand return under the advances of Evans, he did literally that it disappears of the company. The Thasians took part and returned Evans quickly to the Thasus. After its return to the company, Rand was given a shock electrical and worried about the actions of the Thasians. Seeing how Evans desperately wished to remain on board of the ship, the Rand trusted to Kirk its sensations of the friendship for the boy. (COUGH: "Charlie X") Kirk and the Rand felt in several occasions an attraction for one another one, but they resisted discussing openly or acting in its sensations. During a mission, they catched the Rand, Kirk and to other members of a party of the landing in a planet where the children only survived; the adults quickly developed a disease that lost. When the Rand became upheaval, Kirk embraced it and consoled. An adolescent girl to that the equipment befriended, Miri, felt that the Rand was its "competition" and briefly betrayed the party of the landing. (COUGH: "Miri") And after a floating virus separated with the company, affecting the emotions of the equipment, confessed Kirk to Spock that it had "yeoman beautiful". He said the Rand that in other circumstances, they could have had a together life. (COUGH: "the Naked Time") Rand transferred more in front of the company in 2267 early ones. (COUGH: "the conscience of the king")
