Dear Paramount Executives,
The events in the Kelvin timeline would not affect the approach of the whale probe from Star Trek IV (1986)
Further, the Kelvin timeline diverged from the Prime timeline well after the events depicted in the 1980's in that film, so if Kelvin timeline Spock and Kirk go back to procure whales, they will meet themselves and have to fight
Hence I submit for your consideration the following unsolicited screenplay entitled "Star Trek The Whale Probe Again Oh No"
Starring:
William Shatner as Captain Kirk
A CGI monstrosity that sorta looks like Leonard Nimoy as Captain Spock
And the reboot Kirk and Spock actors too
Twist ending:
The fight scene that everyone expects at the end actually turns into an epic dance-off, with the fate of each crew's respective timeline at stake
:Trek:
@bgcarlisle considering how many plots were resolved with eg. A dramatic reading of the US constitution or the power of love™ I’m kinda surprised this never happened
