Wait who was Scotty's nephew?
- Peter, the ensign he was riding so hard.
  
  TIL
- The bloody Cadet Scotty brought to the bridge for some reason.
  
  Engineers are just big cats. "Hey admiral, I caught this for you."
- I had to look it up - apparently this guy's relation to Scotty is only explained in the director's cut of Wrath of Khan https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Peter_Preston
  
  That certainly contributed to my not knowing it. Thank you very much.
- I think any onscreen reference to him being the nephew were cut
  
  It was eventually added back in for the Director’s Edition, though.
- If memory serves, I'm pretty sure he just showed up for the movie.
  
  Do not recall. thanks!
T’be fair, seems likely his nephew has a torpedo funeral service en route. It was good enough for Spock, after all.
- Star Trek: The Search for Ensign Peter
  
  Poor Peter was resurrected all alone on the other side of the Genesis Planet while shit went down, but nobody ever knew.
  "Guys? Uncle Montgomery? Anyone? ...Well, this sucks."
