He did this beautifully in rehearsal . When the director called " Action " , Tim took a step into the space between us and punched me full on in the face . Everyone gasped because you could hear it clear as a bell . Tim was horrified and the director called , " Cut ! " I yelled , " Don ' t cut ! Keep going ! " and we did . I didn ' t want to waste the take . I ' d rather finish the fight , then go put ice on my face , than stop and have to do it again ! I earned my pay that day because Nana had a photo shoot for TV Guide that afternoon . An egg on her face from a Klingon fist wouldn ' t have gone over well .
