* ChekhovsGun: When Dr. [=McCoy=] is teleported to Kukulkan's ship, he mentions that he has his medical kit with him. Near the end of the episode, a Capellan Power Cat has gotten loose; Captain Kirk uses a hypo from the kit to inject the Power Cat with a powerful sedative, ending the threat.
* ContrivedCoincidence: Kukulkan is coming to Earth to wipe out the human race because he's angry that humanity hasn't contacted him. One of the officers on duty on the bridge is Ensign Walking Bear, who just happens to be an expert on ancient Earth cultures and recognizes the shape of Kukulkan's ship. Walking Bear says the name "Kukulkan", which not only prevents Kukulkan from destroying the ''Enterprise'' but convinces him to allow several ''Enterprise'' crew members to try to solve a puzzle. If they solve the puzzle, Kukulkan will give up his plan to destroy humanity. Ensign Walking Bear didn't appear in any previous or subsequent animated episodes, just this one. What are the odds?
