Spock's death in The Wrath of Khan in 1982 featured an emotional scene between Spock and Captain Kirk. Then Spock was brought back to life in the next Star Trek film. That wasn't going to work when actor Leonard Nimoy died in 2015. The 2016 movie, Star Trek Beyond, wrote Spock's offscreen death into the script, leaving fans feeling both sad and shortchanged. A new video titled 765874 - Unification shows the scene we didn't get in the Star Trek movies or TV shows- Kirk leaving the Nexus and going to say goodbye as Spock draws his last breath. A computer-enhanced William Shatner stars with Lawrence Selleck as Spock, with his face computer-generated as Leonard Nimoy. There are also guest appearances by Star Trek characters from different galaxies and different timelines that you'll recognize.
The video is only 7:45; the rest is credits, which have some emotional moments themselves. Read more about the context of the video within the world of Star Trek at Geeks Are Sexy.
