Uhura pwns Mr. Adventure
Uhura fixes the communications board. TOS knew how to elevate unimportant plot scenes by including character work. I refer you to SF Debris' review of "Force of Nature" showing how badly this can backfire. Heck, even "Shades of Grey" did the character work better than that!
Uhura is not offended by "negress"
