Janice Rand

Janice Rand is a fictional character in the American science fiction television series Star Trek: The Original Series during its first season, as well as three of the Star Trek films. She is the Captain's yeoman on board the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701), and first appeared in the episode "The Man Trap". She had significant roles in the episodes "The Enemy Within", where she fights off an evil version of Captain James T. Kirk; "Charlie X" where a young man with god-like powers falls in love with her; and "Miri" where she is infected with a deadly disease while on an away mission and is kidnapped by jealous children.

Rand was portrayed by American actress Grace Lee Whitney, who had previously worked with Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry in a pilot for a show he created called Police Story.

Whitney as Rand was involved in promoting Star Trek before it aired, but did not appear in the first two pilots. Roddenberry set out the role of Rand to Whitney, saying that she and Kirk were meant to have feelings for one another but should never act on them. Part way through the first season, Whitney was released from her contract. The official explanation was that the production team wanted to free up Kirk to have relationships with other women, but it was necessitated because of her substance abuse.[1] It is unclear who suggested that her contract should be terminated or who made the final decision. Roddenberry later blamed NBC for her release and said he regretted it.[citation needed]

After Whitney was reintroduced to Star Trek through conventions, she came back into contact with Roddenberry, who wanted to include her in the new series in development at the time, Star Trek: Phase II. This was subsequently cancelled, but Rand did reappear in Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Whitney made further appearances as Rand in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, as well as scenes in the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Flashback" set during the events of the latter film. Whitney made further appearances as Rand in the fan series Star Trek: New Voyages and Star Trek: Of Gods and Men, and Rand was also portrayed by Meghan King Johnson in New Voyages.

Prior to the start of The Original Series, Whitney promoted the series and was popular with the media. Critics later called the character a stereotype in her initial appearances, but the expansion of the role in "Flashback" was praised.

Concept and development edit

Gene Roddenberry's original pitch for Star Trek featured a female Captain's Yeoman named "Colt". She was described as "blonde and with a shape that even a uniform could not hide." In this first version of Star Trek, she worked as Captain Robert April's "secretary, reporter, bookkeeper, and undoubtedly wishes she could serve him in more personal departments." Roddenberry's description of her ended with "She is not dumb; she is very female, disturbingly so."[2] This character was cast for the first pilot of the series, "The Cage", with Laurel Goodwin cast in that role. A similar character was created for the second pilot, "Where No Man Has Gone Before", this time called "Smith", and she was played by model Andrea Dromm.[3]

However, during discussions with the casting director on Star Trek, Roddenberry stood up in the casting process for three women he had worked with before – Majel Barrett, Nichelle Nichols and Grace Lee Whitney.[3] Whitney had previously appeared in Roddenberry's unsold pilot Police Story where she played Police Lieutenant Lily Monroe. She was available to appear in the series and was promptly cast in the role, being paid $750 per episode and being guaranteed to appear in seven episodes out of the first thirteen.[4][5] The casting led to rumours that she and Roddenberry had been previously involved romantically, something she strenuously denied later saying that "I never had a romantic relationship with Gene Roddenberry before Star Trek, during Star Trek, or after Star Trek." She admitted that he had made numerous passes at her, but she wanted their relationship to remain professional only.[5][6]

 
Roddenberry wanted Kirk and Rand to have an undercurrent of affection but never to act on it.

Roddenberry explained to Whitney that he wanted Rand to be Captain Kirk's confidante but never wanted them to express their affection for one another; instead he wanted it to be played as an ongoing undercurrent. In the early publicity photos, Whitney was dressed in the same manner that the women had been in the two pilots – a loose gold colored tunic and black trousers. She complained to Roddenberry about them hiding her "dancer's legs",[5] so he had William Ware Theiss design a short skirt and tunic for her to wear,[4] a uniform which was adopted by the other female characters on the series.[5] She said the outfit was "sensational" and that "it stopped traffic".[7] Despite the outfit being designed specifically for Whitney, Theiss was concerned and would tell her to lose weight.[8] She was subsequently prescribed amphetamines by her doctor for the purpose of weight loss. Whitney stated that this was the start of her addiction to them, and in order to come down off them at night, she began drinking in the evening to take away the "edginess".[9]

He also developed her hair styles for the series, which Roddenberry insisted must be unique and futuristic so that the viewers could believe they were seeing the future on television.[10] She originally appeared with straight hair in promotion photos,[7] but this was changed to a beehive, which was so solid looking that Bob Justman joked that "You could hit it with a sledgehammer and never make a dent."[10] It was created by weaving two Max Factor wigs into a mesh cone.[11] Whitney described the application of the wig, saying "they nailed it to my head every morning."[12] It was created by placing a cone on her head and then weaving the blonde hair from two separate wigs together resulting in such an unusual look that Whitney said she was unrecognizable without it.[13] In the press, she explained that on the show, Rand would have stuck her head in a machine which would have made up her hair instantly.[14] The wig was later stolen from the Desilu lot after Whitney was no longer on the series; it was never recovered.[6]

When interviewed by the media at the time, Whitney expressed enthusiasm in the role and about science fiction in general. She described Rand's role on board the Enterprise as "She's in charge of the other women aboard the space ship. She's Miss Efficiency."[15] She also added that the character did not go into space "to catch a man."[15] At the time, the media described Rand's position on the Enterprise as "chief female executive officer"[15] and her image was used to promote the series before it began to air.[16] Whitney enjoyed several of the episodes she appeared in, and found it hard to choose between "The Enemy Within", "Charlie X" and "Miri".[12]

She was particularly affectionate toward the latter because it allowed her to appear on camera with her two children,[12] and said it was her favorite.[17] Certain elements of Rand's characterization were developed by Whitney and Shatner; Whitney would go to Shatner's side when their characters were put in danger – in response, Shatner would put his arms around her,[18] such as in "Balance of Terror".[19] The character was written out of the episode "Dagger of the Mind", which Whitney attributed to the romantic liaison that Kirk has with the female lead in that episode being so overt that it would have caused issues for later plots. This was because the script had Kirk and the female lead sleep with each other. Although Whitney found it difficult to watch as her character had been removed from the episode, she understood why.[12][17] Part of her outfit was dictated by attempting to increase the duties of the Captain's Yeoman on screen. In order to provide support while part of an away team on a planet, Roddenberry suggested that she could wear a device on an over-the-shoulder strap which she could use as an electronic camera. He also suggested immediately that it could be expanded in order to be sold as a toy for young girls. This was part of the development process that led to the creation of the tricorder.[20]

Departure edit

Grace Lee Whitney was released during the filming of the first season. The official reason given for Whitney's departure from the show was that her character limited romantic possibilities for Captain Kirk.[21] This idea was supported by Whitney, saying: "They didn't want to give the fans the idea [Kirk] was in love with Janice Rand. That would limit him. They wanted him to go out and fool around. So, I was axed."[12]

But the real reason was that the production had financial issues, with the acquisition of new crew members and the increase in popularity of Doctor Leonard McCoy meaning that those salaries needed to come out of the original budget.[22] In Justman and Herb Solow's 1996 book Inside Star Trek, they stated that following a discussion between Roddenberry, Solow and Bernie Weitzman in which they discussed her contract, they decided to terminate it because of Whitney's limited appearances and the financial issues that the series was having.[21] The decision was attributed elsewhere in David Alexander's 1995 authorized biography of Gene Roddenberry, Star Trek Creator, which said that during the first batch of episodes, casting director Joseph D'Agosta reviewed the contracts for the main actors due to rising costs.[23]

At the time Whitney was guaranteed to appear in seven of the first 13 episodes, and contracted for four days work on each. However, she was used for nine additional days, leading D'Agosta to suggest to Roddenberry that if guest stars instead played the similar role but with different characters then they "would cost less and hold as much value". He added that they should instead look to using Whitney on a free-lance basis instead of under permanent contract.[23] By September 8, 1966,[n 1] Whitney's agent had been informed that her contract had been terminated,[25] which was around a week prior to the shoot of her penultimate episode, "The Conscience of the King".[26] Roddenberry told Whitney that he did not want to lose Rand as he wanted her relationship with Kirk to continue.[27] In a memo to Gene Coon on October 27, 1966, Roddenberry suggested bringing Whitney back as Rand, albeit with a different hairstyle similar to the way she wore it in Police Story as this "made her look much younger and softer",[25] but she was never invited back to the series.[27]

Because of Whitney's termination, drafts of the episode "The Galileo Seven" were revised to replace Rand with a new yeoman, Mears.[28] Writer Paul Schneider was not informed of Whitney's departure when he submitted his first draft of "The Squire of Gothos" in early October 1966, so another character, Yeoman Ross, was then subsequently created for that episode.[29] And Robert Hamner's September 1966 outlines for "A Taste of Armageddon" also included Rand; that part was then given to another new character, Tamura.[30]

In Solow and Justman's book, there was also a reference to a "rift" between Whitney and Roddenberry that occurred just prior to her departure and was expected to ensure that she never returned to the series.[31] In her autobiography, Whitney states that an unnamed television executive sexually assaulted her on August 26, 1966, while working on the episode "Miri", and she draws a link between this and her sacking a few days later.[32] Whitney's departure was around the time when she was an alcoholic.[33] In an interview in 1988, Whitney blamed her alcoholism and anorexia at the time for being released by the series.[34] She later explained in an interview with Starlog magazine to promote Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, that due to being adopted, she had a fear of rejection when she was younger which stemmed from her mother giving her away, and linked this to Star Trek saying "when I was let go from Star Trek, it was a psychic pain which pushed me into alcoholism. I couldn't stand the pain, so I drank to get away from it."[33]

Return edit

Whitney returned to the set on several occasions during the production of the series, and was also invited to come back for cast parties. But over time these visits decreased gradually as she found it painful to be on set with her friends, but not able to appear on the show. She was continuing to take amphetamines and had developed a drinking problem.[35] Despite this, and despite Whitney being let go from the show, Harlan Ellison wrote the character into his original script for "The City on the Edge of Forever".[36] Roddenberry rewrote the script, resulting in a feud between the writers – but the writer was also very disappointed in general that Rand had been removed from the series.[37] After Whitney had left Star Trek, she dated Ellison for a time.[38]

Whitney had no further involvement with Star Trek until 1976, when she happened to meet DeForest Kelley at an unemployment office in Van Nuys, Los Angeles. He informed her about a Star Trek convention coming up that was organised by Bjo and John Trimble called Equicon. She received such a reception upon making an appearance there that she was inspired to think more about the series and wanted to appear at more events.[39] In 1977, after reading the back cover of the book Letters to Star Trek by Susan Sackett and finding that "Whatever happened to Grace Lee Whitney?" was one of the ten most frequently asked queries, Whitney got in touch with Sackett and was invited to meet at Roddenberry's office at Paramount. When he entered, he was happy and excited to see her and immediately offered to bring back Rand for the new television series Star Trek: Phase II. Roddenberry told her that removing Rand was the biggest mistake he had made, saying that the character should have stayed so that "when Captain Kirk came back from having affairs with all these other women on all these other planets – he'd have to deal with [Rand]. What a great plot-thickener that would have been!" Instead, he blamed the decision on executives at NBC, but apologized for it to Whitney.[40]

When Phase II was discussed in the media, the return of Whitney as Rand was one of the things highlighted.[41] Two weeks before the series was about to shoot, it was canceled by Paramount executives. Instead there was going to be a film.[40] Whitney returned for Star Trek: The Motion Picture, with Roddenberry bringing her back as Rand who was now the transporter chief on board the Enterprise.[12] The film reunited the entire main cast of Star Trek.[42] She did not appear in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, and was not in the script for Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. But for the latter film, Nimoy, who was directing the movie, gave Whitney a cameo as another character who was looking out of a window in spacedock watching the return of the damaged Enterprise at the start of the production. As he was also directing The Voyage Home, he was looking to give Whitney a larger role. By this time, she had hoped that Rand had moved over to become a counselor – an idea originally suggested by a fan.[12] Alongside Majel Barrett as Christine Chapel, the duo were given four pages of dialogue initially which was trimmed down to one scene in the final film. Following the reappearance, Whitney was enthusiastic about returning as Rand, saying "I think Janice Rand is going to be around for a long time, as long as they don't kill our characters off, we have a chance of constantly coming back."[33]

After a further appearance as Rand in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, Whitney returned for a final official appearance in the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Flashback". She praised the "incredible experience" and enjoyed working with Kate Mulgrew and Tim Russ.[43] Following the appearance in Voyager, Whitney was supportive of a new Star Trek series focused on the adventures of the Excelsior with Rand appearing once more alongside George Takei as Captain Hikaru Sulu.[44]

Following the relaunch of Star Trek in 2009 with a new cast playing those roles seen in The Original Series, there was commentary online about the lack of female characters and whether Rand might be appearing in future installments.[45] While the sequel, Star Trek Into Darkness, was in production, Rand was one of five characters who was stated not to be appearing in the film by writer Roberto Orci.[46] But there was still speculation at the time of the broadcast of the first trailer about who Alice Eve was portraying in the film. The options given by Tor.com was that it was either Janice Rand or Carol Marcus.[47] Daily Variety reported that she was cast as someone new to the franchise,[48] but she was actually cast as Marcus.[49]

Appearances edit

Rand's first filmed appearance is in the episode "The Corbomite Maneuver", wherein Captain James T. Kirk is annoyed that he has been assigned a pretty female yeoman and discusses this with McCoy.[50] After Kirk is split into two beings in "The Enemy Within", the evil version of the Captain heads to Rand's quarters and reveals his attraction to her. He kisses her forcefully, but she fights back and scratches him across the face. Crewman Fisher intervenes and fights him off – the duo later explain that it was Kirk who attacked her to a surprised good version of the Captain, along with Spock and Doctor McCoy.[51] In "The Man Trap", she becomes friends with Sulu while refusing the advances of Crewman Green.[52] Kirk admits his feelings for Rand while under the influence of an affliction in "The Naked Time".[53]

When Charlie Evans is brought on board the Enterprise in the episode "Charlie X", he falls for Rand. She is older than the adolescent boy and attempts to dissuade his affections by introducing him to Yeoman Tina Lawton. But he declares his feelings for Rand. Concerned, Rand seeks the advice of the Captain who intervenes and involves Evans in some sparring practice. After he falls over, he reveals his powers to make people disappear when one of the other sparring partners laughs at him. Charlie takes control of the ship, and goes to Rand's quarters with a rose. She refuses his approach; Spock and Kirk arrive but Charlie attacks them, and Rand slaps the boy. In response, he makes her vanish. It is only after a Thasian vessel appears that the Enterprise and Rand are returned to normal, as Charlie is taken away by the aliens.[54]

Rand joins the landing party in the episode "Miri", and is infected by the disease that wiped out all of the adults on the planet. She finds comfort in the arms of Kirk, causing Miri to become jealous and the girl kidnaps the Yeoman to attract the attention of the Captain. Kirk convinces Miri to take him to Rand, but the other children attack him. They realise what they're doing is wrong and allow Kirk and Rand to return to the rest of the landing party – where McCoy has synthesized a cure for the disease.[55] Rand's second to last appearance in The Original Series was in The Conscience of the King, where she has no lines but shoots a jealous look at a woman Kirk is attracted to.[56] Her final appearance in the original TV series was on the episode Balance of Terror.

She next appeared in the 1979 film Star Trek: The Motion Picture as the chief transporter operator and non-commissioned officer on board the Enterprise.[57] During the events of The Voyage Home, Rand was stationed in San Francisco as a communications officer, but was reunited with the other former members of the Enterprise when they are court-martialed at the end of the film. She subsequently served as a communications officer aboard the USS Excelsior during the events of The Undiscovered Country.[58] The character's final appearance on screen was as part of Tuvok's memories of the events of that final film, as part of the Voyager episode "Flashback".[59] Afterwards, Whitney remained hopeful that a new Captain Sulu based series would be created, allowing her to return to the role of Rand once more.[60]

Non-canon appearances edit

Whitney made a further two appearances in Star Trek fan productions as Rand. These included the Star Trek: New Voyages episode "World Enough and Time",[61] where Rand was once again on the bridge of the Excelsior alongside Takei's Sulu. Despite being fan produced, the episode was nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation.[62] She also returned as Rand in the film Star Trek: Of Gods and Men. It was directed by Tim Russ, who she had worked with on Voyager, and featured a number of other former Star Trek actors. It was produced in association with New Voyages.[63]

Rand was also portrayed by Meghan King Johnson in New Voyages. She was initially going to work on a film with producer Jack Marshall, but when that fell through, he suggested she worked on the Star Trek production. Johnson was first hired to portray Christine Chapel, with Andrea Ajemian playing Rand. However, Ajemian was re-cast to play Onabi in the pilot "Come What May", Johnson was moved to play Rand and Shannon Giles recruited to play Chapel. Johnson said that highlights of the role included taking the conn in the pilot, and later working around her pregnancy in the episode "In Harm's Way".[64]

In print media, Vonda N. McIntyre's non-canon novel Enterprise: The First Adventure expanded on Rand's early history saying that she was originally a refugee, before being sold into slavery and enlisting in Starfleet. But in order to do so, she also had to lie about her age. Once on the Enterprise, she is teased by her new colleagues until her friendship with Uhura helps her to settle in and become the Yeoman that appeared on the television series.[33] During the production of The Original Series, Janice Rand still appeared in the first draft of the script for the episode "The Galileo Seven", but was replaced by Yeoman Mears in later versions.[65] When the comic book series by IDW Publishing based on the 2009 film revisited the events of that episode, this was changed to allow Rand to appear.[66]

Reception and commentary edit

In the initial previews for Star Trek when reporting on Rand, the media discussed Whitney's looks. The Independent Press-Telegram went as far as printing her bust/waist/hip measurements.[67] Other newspapers were also complimentary of how Whitney looked, calling her attractive and shapely.[68][69] Whitney said that she was popular with the media at the time because she was "very glib and very eager", but felt that she may have been seen to be overshadowing other members of the cast with her appearances.[70] Her hairstyle was placed fifth in a list of unforgettable hairstyles in science fiction on Tor.com. It was suggested that when "you think of the 60s and science fiction hairstyles, the first image is probably Rand's beehive hair".[71]

Rand's role is described within Terry J. Erdmann and Paula M. Block's Star Trek 101 as attending to Kirk, and bringing him reports, meals and coffee as well as having developed a crush on him.[72] Jan Johnson-Smith, in her book American Science Fiction TV: Star Trek, Stargate and Beyond, said that Rand was one of a number of "recognisable stereotypes" of women who appeared in Star Trek. This was despite an initially progressive agenda towards women in authority by the appearance of Number One in "The Cage", which was rejected by NBC. Johnson-Smith described Rand's position as being a typical example of a female character who was only intended to be a romantic interest for a male lead.[73]

Zack Handlen, while writing for The A.V. Club in 2009, said that Whitney was a "competent actress", but that Rand "represents some of Trek's most egregious offenses against feminism". He criticized her role within the show, and specifically in "Charlie X" when Charlie slaps her bottom and none of the characters can explain why he should not do that.[74] Michelle Erica Green praised the "substantial" role given to Rand in "Flashback" while writing for TrekNation, adding that this was the first time such a role had been given to the character in the franchise. However, she criticized Rand's being written out part way through the episode as she felt that the character could have had more to contribute to the plot.[75]

In 2015, SyFy rated Yeoman Rand as among the top 21 most interesting supporting characters of Star Trek.[76] In 2019, she was listed as one of the underrated characters of the Star Trek universe by CBS.[77]

Whitney who had previously worked with Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry in a pilot for a show he created called Police Story Whitney as Rand was involved in promoting Star Trek before it aired but did not appear in the first two pilots Roddenberry set out the role of Rand to Whitney saying that she and Kirk were meant to have feelings for one another but should never act on them Part way through the first season Whitney was released from her contract The official explanation was that the production team wanted to free up Kirk to have relationships with other women but it was necessitated because of her substance abuse 1 It is unclear who suggested that her contract should be terminated or who made the final decision Roddenberry later blamed NBC for her release and said he regretted it citation needed After Whitney was reintroduced to Star Trek through conventions she came back into contact with Roddenberry who wanted to include her in the new series in development at the time Star Trek Phase II This was subsequently cancelled but Rand did reappear in Star Trek The Motion Picture Whitney made further appearances as Rand in Star Trek IV The Voyage Home and Star Trek VI The Undiscovered Country as well as scenes in the Star Trek Voyager episode Flashback set during the events of the latter film Whitney made further appearances as Rand in the fan series Star Trek New Voyages and Star Trek Of Gods and Men and Rand was also portrayed by Meghan King Johnson in New Voyages Prior to the start of The Original Series Whitney promoted the series and was popular with the media Critics later called the character a stereotype in her initial appearances but the expansion of the role in Flashback was praised Contents 1 Concept and development 1 1 Departure 1 2 Return 2 Appearances 2 1 Non canon appearances 3 Reception and commentary 4 Annotations 5 Notes 6 References 7 External linksConcept and development editGene Roddenberry s original pitch for Star Trek featured a female Captain s Yeoman named Colt She was described as blonde and with a shape that even a uniform could not hide In this first version of Star Trek she worked as Captain Robert April s secretary reporter bookkeeper and undoubtedly wishes she could serve him in more personal departments Roddenberry s description of her ended with She is not dumb she is very female disturbingly so 2 This character was cast for the first pilot of the series The Cage with Laurel Goodwin cast in that role A similar character was created for the second pilot Where No Man Has Gone Before this time called Smith and she was played by model Andrea Dromm 3 However during discussions with the casting director on Star Trek Roddenberry stood up in the casting process for three women he had worked with before Majel Barrett Nichelle Nichols and Grace Lee Whitney 3 Whitney had previously appeared in Roddenberry s unsold pilot Police Story where she played Police Lieutenant Lily Monroe She was available to appear in the series and was promptly cast in the role being paid 750 per episode and being guaranteed to appear in seven episodes out of the first thirteen 4 5 The casting led to rumours that she and Roddenberry had been previously involved romantically something she strenuously denied later saying that I never had a romantic relationship with Gene Roddenberry before Star Trek during Star Trek or after Star Trek She admitted that he had made numerous passes at her but she wanted their relationship to remain professional only 5 6 nbsp Roddenberry wanted Kirk and Rand to have an undercurrent of affection but never to act on it Roddenberry explained to Whitney that he wanted Rand to be Captain Kirk s confidante but never wanted them to express their affection for one another instead he wanted it to be played as an ongoing undercurrent In the early publicity photos Whitney was dressed in the same manner that the women had been in the two pilots a loose gold colored tunic and black trousers She complained to Roddenberry about them hiding her dancer s legs 5 so he had William Ware Theiss design a short skirt and tunic for her to wear 4 a uniform which was adopted by the other female characters on the series 5 She said the outfit was sensational and that it stopped traffic 7 Despite the outfit being designed specifically for Whitney Theiss was concerned and would tell her to lose weight 8 She was subsequently prescribed amphetamines by her doctor for the purpose of weight loss Whitney stated that this was the start of her addiction to them and in order to come down off them at night she began drinking in the evening to take away the edginess 9 He also developed her hair styles for the series which Roddenberry insisted must be unique and futuristic so that the viewers could believe they were seeing the future on television 10 She originally appeared with straight hair in promotion photos 7 but this was changed to a beehive which was so solid looking that Bob Justman joked that You could hit it with a sledgehammer and never make a dent 10 It was created by weaving two Max Factor wigs into a mesh cone 11 Whitney described the application of the wig saying they nailed it to my head every morning 12 It was created by placing a cone on her head and then weaving the blonde hair from two separate wigs together resulting in such an unusual look that Whitney said she was unrecognizable without it 13 In the press she explained that on the show Rand would have stuck her head in a machine which would have made up her hair instantly 14 The wig was later stolen from the Desilu lot after Whitney was no longer on the series it was never recovered 6 When interviewed by the media at the time Whitney expressed enthusiasm in the role and about science fiction in general She described Rand s role on board the Enterprise as She s in charge of the other women aboard the space ship She s Miss Efficiency 15 She also added that the character did not go into space to catch a man 15 At the time the media described Rand s position on the Enterprise as chief female executive officer 15 and her image was used to promote the series before it began to air 16 Whitney enjoyed several of the episodes she appeared in and found it hard to choose between The Enemy Within Charlie X and Miri 12 She was particularly affectionate toward the latter because it allowed her to appear on camera with her two children 12 and said it was her favorite 17 Certain elements of Rand s characterization were developed by Whitney and Shatner Whitney would go to Shatner s side when their characters were put in danger in response Shatner would put his arms around her 18 such as in Balance of Terror 19 The character was written out of the episode Dagger of the Mind which Whitney attributed to the romantic liaison that Kirk has with the female lead in that episode being so overt that it would have caused issues for later plots This was because the script had Kirk and the female lead sleep with each other Although Whitney found it difficult to watch as her character had been removed from the episode she understood why 12 17 Part of her outfit was dictated by attempting to increase the duties of the Captain s Yeoman on screen In order to provide support while part of an away team on a planet Roddenberry suggested that she could wear a device on an over the shoulder strap which she could use as an electronic camera He also suggested immediately that it could be expanded in order to be sold as a toy for young girls This was part of the development process that led to the creation of the tricorder 20 Departure edit Grace Lee Whitney was released during the filming of the first season The official reason given for Whitney s departure from the show was that her character limited romantic possibilities for Captain Kirk 21 This idea was supported by Whitney saying They didn t want to give the fans the idea Kirk was in love with Janice Rand That would limit him They wanted him to go out and fool around So I was axed 12 But the real reason was that the production had financial issues with the acquisition of new crew members and the increase in popularity of Doctor Leonard McCoy meaning that those salaries needed to come out of the original budget 22 In Justman and Herb Solow s 1996 book Inside Star Trek they stated that following a discussion between Roddenberry Solow and Bernie Weitzman in which they discussed her contract they decided to terminate it because of Whitney s limited appearances and the financial issues that the series was having 21 The decision was attributed elsewhere in David Alexander s 1995 authorized biography of Gene Roddenberry Star Trek Creator which said that during the first batch of episodes casting director Joseph D Agosta reviewed the contracts for the main actors due to rising costs 23 At the time Whitney was guaranteed to appear in seven of the first 13 episodes and contracted for four days work on each However she was used for nine additional days leading D Agosta to suggest to Roddenberry that if guest stars instead played the similar role but with different characters then they would cost less and hold as much value He added that they should instead look to using Whitney on a free lance basis instead of under permanent contract 23 By September 8 1966 n 1 Whitney s agent had been informed that her contract had been terminated 25 which was around a week prior to the shoot of her penultimate episode The Conscience of the King 26 Roddenberry told Whitney that he did not want to lose Rand as he wanted her relationship with Kirk to continue 27 In a memo to Gene Coon on October 27 1966 Roddenberry suggested bringing Whitney back as Rand albeit with a different hairstyle similar to the way she wore it in Police Story as this made her look much younger and softer 25 but she was never invited back to the series 27 Because of Whitney s termination drafts of the episode The Galileo Seven were revised to replace Rand with a new yeoman Mears 28 Writer Paul Schneider was not informed of Whitney s departure when he submitted his first draft of The Squire of Gothos in early October 1966 so another character Yeoman Ross was then subsequently created for that episode 29 And Robert Hamner s September 1966 outlines for A Taste of Armageddon also included Rand that part was then given to another new character Tamura 30 In Solow and Justman s book there was also a reference to a rift between Whitney and Roddenberry that occurred just prior to her departure and was expected to ensure that she never returned to the series 31 In her autobiography Whitney states that an unnamed television executive sexually assaulted her on August 26 1966 while working on the episode Miri and she draws a link between this and her sacking a few days later 32 Whitney s departure was around the time when she was an alcoholic 33 In an interview in 1988 Whitney blamed her alcoholism and anorexia at the time for being released by the series 34 She later explained in an interview with Starlog magazine to promote Star Trek IV The Voyage Home that due to being adopted she had a fear of rejection when she was younger which stemmed from her mother giving her away and linked this to Star Trek saying when I was let go from Star Trek it was a psychic pain which pushed me into alcoholism I couldn t stand the pain so I drank to get away from it 33 Return edit nbsp Whitney at a Star Trek convention in the mid 1970sWhitney returned to the set on several occasions during the production of the series and was also invited to come back for cast parties But over time these visits decreased gradually as she found it painful to be on set with her friends but not able to appear on the show She was continuing to take amphetamines and had developed a drinking problem 35 Despite this and despite Whitney being let go from the show Harlan Ellison wrote the character into his original script for The City on the Edge of Forever 36 Roddenberry rewrote the script resulting in a feud between the writers but the writer was also very disappointed in general that Rand had been removed from the series 37 After Whitney had left Star Trek she dated Ellison for a time 38 Whitney had no further involvement with Star Trek until 1976 when she happened to meet DeForest Kelley at an unemployment office in Van Nuys Los Angeles He informed her about a Star Trek convention coming up that was organised by Bjo and John Trimble called Equicon She received such a reception upon making an appearance there that she was inspired to think more about the series and wanted to appear at more events 39 In 1977 after reading the back cover of the book Letters to Star Trek by Susan Sackett and finding that Whatever happened to Grace Lee Whitney was one of the ten most frequently asked queries Whitney got in touch with Sackett and was invited to meet at Roddenberry s office at Paramount When he entered he was happy and excited to see her and immediately offered to bring back Rand for the new television series Star Trek Phase II Roddenberry told her that removing Rand was the biggest mistake he had made saying that the character should have stayed so that when Captain Kirk came back from having affairs with all these other women on all these other planets he d have to deal with Rand What a great plot thickener that would have been Instead he blamed the decision on executives at NBC but apologized for it to Whitney 40 nbsp Whitney at a convention circa 1980When Phase II was discussed in the media the return of Whitney as Rand was one of the things highlighted 41 Two weeks before the series was about to shoot it was canceled by Paramount executives Instead there was going to be a film 40 Whitney returned for Star Trek The Motion Picture with Roddenberry bringing her back as Rand who was now the transporter chief on board the Enterprise 12 The film reunited the entire main cast of Star Trek 42 She did not appear in Star Trek II The Wrath of Khan and was not in the script for Star Trek III The Search for Spock But for the latter film Nimoy who was directing the movie gave Whitney a cameo as another character who was looking out of a window in spacedock watching the return of the damaged Enterprise at the start of the production As he was also directing The Voyage Home he was looking to give Whitney a larger role By this time she had hoped that Rand had moved over to become a counselor an idea originally suggested by a fan 12 Alongside Majel Barrett as Christine Chapel the duo were given four pages of dialogue initially which was trimmed down to one scene in the final film Following the reappearance Whitney was enthusiastic about returning as Rand saying I think Janice Rand is going to be around for a long time as long as they don t kill our characters off we have a chance of constantly coming back 33 After a further appearance as Rand in Star Trek VI The Undiscovered Country Whitney returned for a final official appearance in the Star Trek Voyager episode Flashback She praised the incredible experience and enjoyed working with Kate Mulgrew and Tim Russ 43 Following the appearance in Voyager Whitney was supportive of a new Star Trek series focused on the adventures of the Excelsior with Rand appearing once more alongside George Takei as Captain Hikaru Sulu 44 Following the relaunch of Star Trek in 2009 with a new cast playing those roles seen in The Original Series there was commentary online about the lack of female characters and whether Rand might be appearing in future installments 45 While the sequel Star Trek Into Darkness was in production Rand was one of five characters who was stated not to be appearing in the film by writer Roberto Orci 46 But there was still speculation at the time of the broadcast of the first trailer about who Alice Eve was portraying in the film The options given by Tor com was that it was either Janice Rand or Carol Marcus 47 Daily Variety reported that she was cast as someone new to the franchise 48 but she was actually cast as Marcus 49 Appearances editRand s first filmed appearance is in the episode The Corbomite Maneuver wherein Captain James T Kirk is annoyed that he has been assigned a pretty female yeoman and discusses this with McCoy 50 After Kirk is split into two beings in The Enemy Within the evil version of the Captain heads to Rand s quarters and reveals his attraction to her He kisses her forcefully but she fights back and scratches him across the face Crewman Fisher intervenes and fights him off the duo later explain that it was Kirk who attacked her to a surprised good version of the Captain along with Spock and Doctor McCoy 51 In The Man Trap she becomes friends with Sulu while refusing the advances of Crewman Green 52 Kirk admits his feelings for Rand while under the influence of an affliction in The Naked Time 53 When Charlie Evans is brought on board the Enterprise in the episode Charlie X he falls for Rand She is older than the adolescent boy and attempts to dissuade his affections by introducing him to Yeoman Tina Lawton But he declares his feelings for Rand Concerned Rand seeks the advice of the Captain who intervenes and involves Evans in some sparring practice After he falls over he reveals his powers to make people disappear when one of the other sparring partners laughs at him Charlie takes control of the ship and goes to Rand s quarters with a rose She refuses his approach Spock and Kirk arrive but Charlie attacks them and Rand slaps the boy In response he makes her vanish It is only after a Thasian vessel appears that the Enterprise and Rand are returned to normal as Charlie is taken away by the aliens 54 Rand joins the landing party in the episode Miri and is infected by the disease that wiped out all of the adults on the planet She finds comfort in the arms of Kirk causing Miri to become jealous and the girl kidnaps the Yeoman to attract the attention of the Captain Kirk convinces Miri to take him to Rand but the other children attack him They realise what they re doing is wrong and allow Kirk and Rand to return to the rest of the landing party where McCoy has synthesized a cure for the disease 55 Rand s second to last appearance in The Original Series was in The Conscience of the King where she has no lines but shoots a jealous look at a woman Kirk is attracted to 56 Her final appearance in the original TV series was on the episode Balance of Terror She next appeared in the 1979 film Star Trek The Motion Picture as the chief transporter operator and non commissioned officer on board the Enterprise 57 During the events of The Voyage Home Rand was stationed in San Francisco as a communications officer but was reunited with the other former members of the Enterprise when they are court martialed at the end of the film She subsequently served as a communications officer aboard the USS Excelsior during the events of The Undiscovered Country 58 The character s final appearance on screen was as part of Tuvok s memories of the events of that final film as part of the Voyager episode Flashback 59 Afterwards Whitney remained hopeful that a new Captain Sulu based series would be created allowing her to return to the role of Rand once more 60 Non canon appearances edit Whitney made a further two appearances in Star Trek fan productions as Rand These included the Star Trek New Voyages episode World Enough and Time 61 where Rand was once again on the bridge of the Excelsior alongside Takei s Sulu Despite being fan produced the episode was nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation 62 She also returned as Rand in the film Star Trek Of Gods and Men It was directed by Tim Russ who she had worked with on Voyager and featured a number of other former Star Trek actors It was produced in association with New Voyages 63 Rand was also portrayed by Meghan King Johnson in New Voyages She was initially going to work on a film with producer Jack Marshall but when that fell through he suggested she worked on the Star Trek production Johnson was first hired to portray Christine Chapel with Andrea Ajemian playing Rand However Ajemian was re cast to play Onabi in the pilot Come What May Johnson was moved to play Rand and Shannon Giles recruited to play Chapel Johnson said that highlights of the role included taking the conn in the pilot and later working around her pregnancy in the episode In Harm s Way 64 In print media Vonda N McIntyre s non canon novel Enterprise The First Adventure expanded on Rand s early history saying that she was originally a refugee before being sold into slavery and enlisting in Starfleet But in order to do so she also had to lie about her age Once on the Enterprise she is teased by her new colleagues until her friendship with Uhura helps her to settle in and become the Yeoman that appeared on the television series 33 During the production of The Original Series Janice Rand still appeared in the first draft of the script for the episode The Galileo Seven but was replaced by Yeoman Mears in later versions 65 When the comic book series by IDW Publishing based on the 2009 film revisited the events of that episode this was changed to allow Rand to appear 66 Reception and commentary editIn the initial previews for Star Trek when reporting on Rand the media discussed Whitney s looks The Independent Press Telegram went as far as printing her bust waist hip measurements 67 Other newspapers were also complimentary of how Whitney looked calling her attractive and shapely 68 69 Whitney said that she was popular with the media at the time because she was very glib and very eager but felt that she may have been seen to be overshadowing other members of the cast with her appearances 70 Her hairstyle was placed fifth in a list of unforgettable hairstyles in science fiction on Tor com It was suggested that when you think of the 60s and science fiction hairstyles the first image is probably Rand s beehive hair 71 Rand s role is described within Terry J Erdmann and Paula M Block s Star Trek 101 as attending to Kirk and bringing him reports meals and coffee as well as having developed a crush on him 72 Jan Johnson Smith in her book American Science Fiction TV Star Trek Stargate and Beyond said that Rand was one of a number of recognisable stereotypes of women who appeared in Star Trek This was despite an initially progressive agenda towards women in authority by the appearance of Number One in The Cage which was rejected by NBC Johnson Smith described Rand s position as being a typical example of a female character who was only intended to be a romantic interest for a male lead 73 Zack Handlen while writing for The A V Club in 2009 said that Whitney was a competent actress but that Rand represents some of Trek s most egregious offenses against feminism He criticized her role within the show and specifically in Charlie X when Charlie slaps her bottom and none of the characters can explain why he should not do that 74 Michelle Erica Green praised the substantial role given to Rand in Flashback while writing for TrekNation adding that this was the first time such a role had been given to the character in the franchise However she criticized Rand s being written out part way through the episode as she felt that the character could have had more to contribute to the plot 75 In 2015 SyFy rated Yeoman Rand as among the top 21 most interesting supporting characters of Star Trek 76 In 2019 she was listed as one of the underrated characters of the Star Trek universe by CBS 77 Annotations edit This was also
