I would think a distinction could be made between a Red alert situation occurring and the Red alert actually being sounded. The question in the episode should have been "Was the Enterprise in a Red Alert situation when Kirk jettisoned the pod containing Lt. Cmdr. Finney?" and not worry about whether Kirk had the chance to press the Red alert button or not! Anyone have any thoughts on this?
