And Kirk returns the courtesy readily enough, with that futuro-crowbar. That appears to suffice for two manly men settling their score, after which cooler heads can prevail.
Really, if Kirk went apeshit every time an opponent tried to kill him, there'd be no end to it. He's a soldier by profession - killing is part of the job. Maybe Kirk thought sending Khan to a Penal Colony would just give him another opportunity to escape. Marooning him on a uninhabited planet was a humane way of "getting rid" of him where he could no longer pose a threat to anyone. Longinus , UnknownSample , Tenacity and 3 others like this.
Kirk was -- more than once -- accused of being a "Romantic. Other examples include when a Starfleet Officer who's made a crucial mistake, or gone nuts because of factors beyond his control, are allowed their dignity, because of Kirk's stamp on the matter. Gary Mitchell and Captain Garth are allowed to keep their former reputations intact, because of Kirk's spin on these matters. I love that aspect of James T.
It may not be "appropriate" in a strict sense of the word Kirk suffered a brain fart. Spock's Barber , Feb 14, Kirk also mistakenly thinks that settling on a planet is what Khan wants to do.
Without consulting the superman, he assumes that the mission of the Botany Bay was to escape from Earth and then land somewhere else. The actual events may not support the interpretation.
The Botany Bay has no apparent destination. Khan isn't indicated to have been set to thaw at a destination, but at contact with other vessels. The sleeper ship sends an explicit SOS, indicating it wants to be found. And when it is found, Khan uses this event for hijacking the ship of his rescuers and abandoning his original vessel and supposedly also most of its cargo.
A flying mousetrap scenario where Khan has every intent of returning to a conquest spree is IMHO much likelier. For his return, the passage of time since his last appearance would be crucial - "Have they forgotten me yet? The facts can be made to fit other scenarios as well, though. And if Khan is one thing, it's smooth: he reads people and makes them do his bidding even without coercion. A single line of missed dialogue between the two men could have made Kirk decide on a course of action in fact suggested to him by Khan.

Apparently, after the destruction of Vulcan, Marcus sought to militarize Starfleet. In the process, he discovered Khan floating in the Botany Bay. This happened much earlier in the rebooted Trek universe than it did in the original Trek , where Kirk and the Enterprise gang found the ship during their 5-year mission.
He brought Khan into the Starfleet fold, using his pre-utopian knowledge to build new weapons and ships. But the film went even deeper into Trek lore for its most moving scene — a sequence which directly recalled, and simultaneously flipped, the most moving scene from Wrath of Khan :.
As the Enterprise fell to earth, a member of the crew had to make the ultimate sacrifice. But not just any member of the crew. Captain James T.
Kirk died heroically saving his work-family from a falling spaceship. In the original Khan , of course, Spock died doing just about the same thing: Exposing himself to radiation in order to restore power to the warp drive. Now, listen. There, a stunned Kirk must bid an emotional farewell to his dearest friend. Kirk need not mourn, says Spock, for his sacrifice was logical. Spock dies, but in contrast to a new birth -- the new living star and planet formed from the nebula and Genesis.
A sullen and mournful funeral is held for Spock, and, accompanied by Scotty playing "Amazing Grace" on his bagpipes, Spock's coffin is sent to rest upon the new planet. With Khan defeated, David Marcus finally makes peace with his father.
Kirk and the U. Enterprise then go to Ceti Alpha V to pick up the abandoned Reliant crew, and the ship heads for Earth. Kirk, though saddened at the loss of his friend, is hopeful for the future, because as Spock once said, "there are always possibilities. An email will not be created automatically.
