the_deep_magicOkay, pretty random Star Trek question that I've been meaning to ask for a while. Is there a scene in TOS or one of the movies (or possibly even early TNG) where the inside of the Enterprise starts to melt?
The reason I ask is that I have this very vivid childhood memory of watching the Muppet Babies cartoon, which was constantly using popular movie/TV clips (the reason, by the way, that it will almost certainly never come out on DVD), and they show a non-animated clip of what I think were gray spaceship walls melting because it got too close to the sun, and for some reason I've always had it in my mind that the scene came from Star Trek.
I could be wrong -- it could be from something else entirely, or I could've just dreamed the whole damn thing. I remember it so clearly, though, because it scared the shit out of me. I had just read about the sun eventually turning into a red giant and scorching the earth, but somehow skipped over the part where it was going to happen millions of years in the future and I was therefore sure it was going to happen at any moment and EVERYTHING WAS GOING TO MELT, WHAT THE HELL, WHY DO I NEED TO LEARN MULTIPLICATION.
Anyhow, if anybody knows what I might be thinking of -- or the name of a good hypnotist -- please to let me know.

It's not melty at all though.
But now that you mention transporters: I remember someody mentioning (and somebody worked it into a fic about McCoy too, I think) that there was a transporter accident in one of the TOS movies where two people basically come out as slush. That seems much more likely to be what you remember.
