Meanwhile, the Federation has been looking for the renegades in order to try them for stealing the Enterprise and sabotaging the Excelsior. The Federation must know that whole incident had something to do with Spock as per Kirk's last conversation with the Starfleet Commander, as well as from the last message received from Capt Estaban while investigating the Genesis planet. The Excelsior is sent to retrieve the renegades from Vulcan; even though the Vulcan consulate disagrees with Federation politics on arresting the renegades. (I hope "Hunter" will be back to command Excelsior - he was great). Kirk and co. are tried and court-martialed, but given a new ship and a mission to the back-end of space. There they meet a wonderfully evil new (humanoid) villian. Hopefully, since Saavik was not really at fault for her part in the 'Search for Spock' she won't be assigned to Kirk's new adventure (unless Kirstie Alley comes back). Spock was not at fault either for that matter, but will ask to be assigned to the mission. I hope the villian is NOT Klingon - Romulan, yes - or better yet some other race not yet known to the ST Universe. Omne would be great - but I hope Eddie Murphy is not chosen for the role! Kirk probably won't be assigned to a brand new Starship like the Excelsior, but some old heavy cruisor like the Enterprise, that Scotty will have to spend alot of time getting in shape. Please don't let ST:IV have the Gaurdian of Forever in it - I want to see something NEW; not undoing what's already been done! Anyway, I don't think the Federation would approve of Kirk having anything to do with such a sensitive device after what happened with Genesis!
