When people design these masks they never think that one has to eat. One relief you’ve got is they have three or four makeup pieces that they can take off me at lunch time. It’s not too bad, but then you have to keep it all on you for the duration of the shoot that day.

Even though Scotty gives him a hard time and always blames Keenser – whatever happens, it’s Keenser’s fault – Keenser just takes it with a grain of salt and moves on.

What kind of back story have you created for Keenser, and also for his friendship with Scotty? ROY: Well, Keenser is a smart alien. They actually made a Star Trek uniform for me, practically on the spot. The thing about this business is you have to take the work while you can. The really must have been a tremendous thrill, that you got your own day and your own scene to pave the way for more appearances as Keenser… ROY: I was thrilled.
