    Scott: When are you gonna get off that milk diet, lad?
    Chekov: This is vodka.
    Scott: Where I come from, that's soda pop.
    Scott: [raising his glass] Now this is a drink for a man.
    Chekov: Scotch?
    Scott: Aye.
    Chekov: It was invented by a little old lady from Leningrad.

    Proof once again that the Scots got around . . . even Leningrad. Those bar scenes were among Scotty's greatest moments.

    Scotty is my favorite TOS Star Trek character (as if you couldn't tell from my avatar).

    "Laddie, I was drinking Scotch a hundred years before you were born. And I can tell you that whatever this is, it is definitely not Scotch."

    Thank you! I love the English language so much more than its component parts.

    Fans of the Star Trek 'universe' have some shorthand acronyms when referring to the different series, characters, episodes, etc.

    TOS - The Original Series
    TNG - The Next Generation (the second television series, started 1987)
    DS9 - Deep Space Nine - the spinoff series from TNG

    Scotty's kilt wearing was discussed on XMTS in this thread. In summary, he rarely wore it, he had a fly plaid, and it was in the Scott Black and White tartan.

    To continue with the Scotty quotes:
    From TOS episode ‘By Any Other Name’
    Scotty: [Trying to drink Tomar - a Kelvan crew member attempting to take over the Enterprise - under the table, Scotty enters, a bit tipsy, with a bottle of green liquid] I found this in the ganner room... ganner...
    Tomar: What is it?
    Scotty: It's, [looks for a label]
    Scotty: uh, [looks under the bottle; sniffs it]
    Scotty: ... It's green.
