While the mighty Anan 7 is comprehensively beguiling Diplomat Fox with almost disdainful ease, Mr. Scott is not buyin' it. When the utterly hoodwinked Fox gives his extremely dubious order (which would have meant the summary destruction of The Enterprise, including all crew), Mr. Scott yields not an inch.

Temporarily dead does not actually qualify as dead.

That was a lie. Vulcans can NOT lie.

The Eminians attempt trickery. Using a voice duplicator to approximate Kirk’s voice, Anan 7 tries to lure the crew to the surface, contacting the Enterprise through Kirk’s communicator. Montgomery Scott, suspicious, analyzes the message at Spock’s science station and discovers the duplicity...
Meanwhile, Ambassador Fox, still unaware of the treachery of Anan 7 and the danger to the lives of the Enterprise crew, attempts to salvage the situation. He contacts the planet, offering to have the ship lower its shields and to beam down personally to discuss the matter; Anan apparently agrees. However, this is a trick to enable the Eminians to destroy the ship and meet the terms of their treaty with Vendikar. Fortunately, Scott, with McCoy’s support, bluntly refuses Fox’s order to have the ship stand down. He notes that the landing party is obviously still being held prisoner, and the ship was just fired on without provocation. Fox is furious; he vehemently threatens to have Scott court martialed for insubordination and proceeds to the planet with his aide alone. Although he’s in the hot-seat, Scott stands firm on not lowering his defenses until he knows what has happened to the captain....
Anan opens a channel to the ship; Kirk takes advantage of the opportunity to order Scott to implement General Order 24 in two hours, before being restrained. Anan threatens the hostages’ lives if the crew does not report immediately. Kirk informs Anan that his threats are academic, since in two hours, the Enterprise will destroy Eminiar. Anan immediately orders the defenses to fire on the Enterprise but the Constitution-class starship has moved out of range. ...
Kirk hails the Enterprise informing them to standby to transport the party in ten minutes or carry out General Order 24 on schedule. Then, Kirk tells Anan his plan: to save his crew, he plans to end the war. ..

. Spock details that the computers are in constant contact with their Vendikan counterparts. Terminating that contact abrogates the agreement between them, and by destroying the master computer, the others will go. ... those on Vendikar will assume Eminiar has broken the treaty, and will plan for real war...
Fox offers to serve as a mediator between Eminiar and Vendikar, and Kirk leaves him behind to negotiate the peace.
Kirk tells Anan that if they contact Vendikar, they will quickly realize that they are just as horrified at the prospect of a real bloody war.
Spock wasn’t entirely Vulcan, if you recall. He was known to stretch the truth.
Even my parents love Star Trek... And Scotty played a great character RIP.
The guy, (Mr. DePaul) sitting at the helm in place of Sulu) in my op video played Captain Pike in the wheelchair in The Menagerie two part episode. His real name is Sean Kenney who later became a top notched photographer.

That was one of the best special effects scenes I’ve ever seen when Apollo zapped Scotty and sent him flying.
I know
Spock was trying to save lives but he fibbed!
Well he’s half-human, so......
Between that mod and the one the aliens from Andromeda did makes me wonder if they kept the specs.
I would have!!
