He wasn't in very many scenes. And agreed w/ Mary--that was one of the best scenes! I was so proud of him saving Kirk's butt.

But I won't hold my breath. :P Agreed w/ you, John–I wish John Cho had a bigger role in the movie. He wasn’t in very many scenes. And agreed w/ Mary–that was one of the best scenes!
