Sure, gluttony’s on the weaker side. Not a lot of material to draw from.

    Eh, the gluttony quote fits, in a metaphysical way. Khan is not a glutton for food, but definitely lines up for seconds at the casino buffet of obsession and hatred. He talks a good game about saving his crew, but they don’t mean much to him when they get in his way. He hated Kirk more than he wanted to get them off of Ceeti Alphaaa Fiiive, if he could have escaped it without them, he would have.

    Much better than my own thought about putting together all seven sins into one picture:

    (It’s Janeway, all seven of the sins are her:-P)

    Thanks for the shoutout. For gluttony, Khan says in Space Seed that the planet will present “A struggle at first even to stay alive, to find food” and in Wrath of Khan he says the crew had “only the contents of these cargo bays to sustain us”; maybe something more fitting could be made out of those?
