Writer's Guild rules specified that Jon Povill could have received a "story by" credit for his contributions to the script. Povil elected not to proceed with the crediting, as he and Gene Roddenberry had a terrible falling out during filming when Povil sided with Harold Livingston on certain script matters. Roddenberry had wanted script credit himself, but the WGA ruled against his claim. In order to repair their friendship, Povil opted to not take story credit. Povil came to regret his decision, as it meant he forfeited hundreds of thousands of dollars in residual payments.
