'''Uhura:''' Because you sensed my question before I asked it?\\

* ShownTheirWork: Despite some considerable ArtisticLicenseSpace in the depiction of the comet, the scene after the crew beams onto it shows the star field wheeling in the background, as the comet tumbles through space. It's beautifully reminiscent of the impressive shots taken by the [[https://www.livescience.com/62394-comet-snow-rosetta-twitter.html Rosetta mission]] to Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko in 2014.* SongsInTheKeyOfLock: Uhura discovers that the "egg" on the comet responds to music -- specifically, the Kenyan melody she hums. She and Spock then use the melody to make the egg open up to them.

* UnspokenPlanGuarantee: Pike has a plan that involves getting in front of the comet with no further explanation. Once he's done so, he fakes the ship being disabled so the Shepherds will have to tow the ''Enterprise'' away. Meanwhile, Spock is in a shuttle, having hidden in the comet's tail in the confusion.

* MagicalDefibrillator: When Sam Kirk gets shocked by the "egg" on the comet, Spock scans him and reports his heart has stopped. He uses Kirk's suit-built-in defibrillator to shock Kirk's heart back to beating. Downplayed, since Spock says that Kirk will still need medical attention in sickbay and he remains unconscious throughout.
