Cramps danced with Carly as well, even though she didn't want to. Cramps is played by Patrick Birkett. He was mentioned again in iStill Psycho, when Sam reminded Nora about Cramps having a "Clowneurysm".
- Cramps (also known as abdominal distension) are painful sensations caused by contraction of various parts of a humanoid body's abdomen. In 1986, Doctor Leonard McCoy, Doctor Gillian Taylor, and Admiral James T. Kirk infiltrated Mercy Hospital where a seriously injured Pavel Chekov was awaiting surgery. To get into the secured area where Chekov was being held, Kirk and McCoy had Taylor lay on a gurney, with the two men were pretending to take her to surgery. When stopped by a security guard, McCoy angrily demanded if the guards wanted an acute case on their hands. He then explained that Dr. Taylor had, "...immediate post-parandial, upper-abdominal distention.". The guards let them pass. Once in the surgical suite, Kirk asked McCoy what he said Taylor had, McCoy replied, "cramps." (TOS movie
- When trying to access a secure section of San Francisco's Mercy Hospital, Doctor Leonard McCoy baffled a security guard by describing Gillian Taylor's supposed medical condition as "immediate post-prandial upper-abdominal distension", which he later described to Admiral Kirk as the scientific name for cramps. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home) "Post-prandial" means "after eating".
