The civilian manager of Deep Space Station K-7, caught between Federation officials, Klingons on shore leave and a population explosion of tribbles.
Mr Lurry runs Deep Space Station K-7, a Federation outpost close to the disputed Sherman's Planet. He appears in the second-season Original Series episode The Trouble with Tribbles, played by Whit Bissell.
When Under-Secretary Nilz Baris has him issue a priority one distress call to protect a shipment of quadrotriticale grain, Lurry has to face an irritated Captain Kirk. He is equally uncomfortable when the Klingon captain Koloth requests shore leave for his crew, which the terms of the Organian Peace Treaty oblige him to grant.
Lurry is present as the trader Cyrano Jones's tribbles overrun the station and its grain bins, and at the unmasking of Baris's aide Arne Darvin as a Klingon agent. Footage of the character is also seen in the Deep Space Nine episode Trials and Tribble-ations.
