Zachary Quinto chose to boldly go *exactly* where he's been before Monday when his *Brilliant Minds* character, Dr. Oliver Wolf, dressed as *Star Trek*'s Spock for his Halloween costume.

Quinto, of course, played the famous half-human, half-Vulcan in the 2009 *Star Trek* movie, as well as in 2013's *Star Trek Into Darkness* and 2016's *Star Trek Beyond*.

"Live long and prosper," read the caption on a short video of Quinto's Wolf as Spock and his *Brilliant Minds* costar Tamberla Perry's Dr. Carol Pierce as Uhura, which Zoe Saldaña played the films.

Of course they made the Vulcan sign.

Quinto was all about the nod to his earlier work, showrunner Michael Grassi revealed to TV Insider.

"We came up with the idea in the room, and when we brought it to Zachary, he was so excited to include this Easter egg," Grassi said. "If you listen carefully in that scene, you'll hear that the elevator also sounds different — another fun nod for *Star Trek* fans."**

Quinto has been open about his love for the role of Spock.

"It was an incredible experience," he said on *The Jennifer Hudson Show* in August. "But it's something, a role that was so iconic already. To take it over from Leonard Nimoy — the late, great Leonard Nimoy — with whom I got to become incredibly close friends, that was for me, the most meaningful part of the experience probably. The most helpful part of the experience was his support and guidance."

The two became "really great friends," he noted of the actor who is credited in the first two of the three movies. Nimoy died in 2015.

"I also became friends with all the actors that I worked with on that movie, and I love them all," Quinto said.**

Quinto told Hudson that he "would love to do it again," and he thinks the rest of the cast would too.

The *Star Trek* trilogy Quinto starred in costarred a cast that also included Chris Pine, Zoe Saldaña, the late Anton Yelchin, John Cho, Simon Pegg, and Karl Urban.

Besides, he already has access to the character's signature ears.**

"I have a few pairs of ears," Quinto revealed in an October 2020 interview with NPR. "I think it's probably in the ballpark of a dozen, because we've made three films now, and it was a new pair of ears every day on the movie. So, you know, it's not like they were going to miss them. And at the end of the day, they just cut them, they just shredded them and threw them away."

He decided that he should take a couple.

Now in its second season, his newer project takes place right here on Earth in a hospital. The medical procedural, inspired by the life of neurologist Oliver Sacks, follows Wolf as he struggles with his own mental health while trying to solve patients' health mysteries.

*Brilliant Minds* airs Mondays at 10 p.m. ET/PT on NBC.**

Call her married!

"Call Me Maybe" singer Carly Rae Jepsen and six-time Grammy-winning music producer Cole M.G.N. (born Cole Marsden Greif-Neill) have officially tied the knot. The couple shared their happy news on Instagram on Friday alongside a whole carousel of photos from their big day.

"Husband. That feels good to say. ❤️ New York City ~Oct. 4th. Favourite day of my life," Jepsen captioned the post.

The newlyweds got married in front of 100 guests in the famed Bard Room at the Chelsea Hotel in New York City, according to *Vogue*. "We knew we wanted a location that meant something to us, and the Chelsea Hotel had become a home away from home every time we were in New York," Jepsen told the outlet of their venue. "As artists, its iconic history and lore made it that much more appealing. For planning, we had weekly dates to talk out all the details of the wedding. This way it was only ever fun and not too much at once." (The outlet notes that past inhabitants at the hotel include the likes of Mark Twain, Arthur Miller, Jimi Hendrix, Leonard Cohen, Patti Smith, and Madonna .)

Per *Vogue*, the proceedings also featured a famous cameo. Rufus Wainwright, a friend of Jepsen's, surprised the crowd with an a cappella version of Cohen's "Chelsea Hotel #2." "This felt like a once-in-a-lifetime New York moment," Jepsen said of the performance.**

Reflecting on their big day a few weeks later, the newlyweds said they are still thrilled with the way their big day turned out. "Often in life we'll imagine things, and even though the reality can be good, it's never quite *as good*," Jepsen said. "This day felt like the exception. It was better than either one of our wildest dreams. We felt connected through the whole thing, which was really important to us. In fact, we even had a few special songs planted in the DJ's setlist so that, no matter where we were at the moment, when we heard those songs, we would come find each other."

The couple first met and became friends in May 2021 during a songwriting session. They started dating officially in 2022, and got engaged in September 2024 during a month-long trip to Europe.

🚨 Headlines

🏈 Hutchinson gets paid: The Lions signed edge rusher Aidan Hutchinson to a four-year, $180 million extension, making him the second-highest paid non-QB in league history behind Micah Parsons.

⚾️ Twins hire Shelton: The Twins are hiring Derek Shelton as their new manager, bringing back their former bench coach after he spent the last five years managing the Pirates.

🏀 NBA scandal update: Chauncey Billups and Terry Rozier will not be paid while on leave; Rozier reportedly faced an $8 million tax lien in 2023, the same year of his alleged involvement in the illegal betting scheme.

⚽️ Messi tops salary list: Miami's Lionel Messi is the highest-paid player in MLS this season ($20.45M), according to the MLSPA's biannual release, while LAFC's Son Heung-Min is the only other player making eight figures ($11.15M).

🥊 Mayweather-Pacquiao 2? More than a decade after their historic first bout, which set records for U.S. PPV buys (4.6 million), Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao are exploring a rematch that would likely air on Netflix in 2026.

🏈 Can a running back win a QB award?

Colts running back Jonathan Taylor is having such a remarkable season that it might, might, be enough to end quarterbacks' stranglehold on the NFL MVP award.

By the numbers: Taylor leads the league in carries (143), rushing yards (850) and rushing TDs (12) as he bids to win the first rushing Triple Crown since 2014 (DeMarco Murray). He's also added 25 catches for 206 yards and 2 TDs to power the Colts (7-1) to the league's best record.

His 14 scrimmage TDs are five more than anyone else has and put him on pace for 30, just shy of LaDainian Tomlinson's single-season record of 31 set in 2006.

He's the first player with 500 scrimmage yards and 10 TDs in a four game span since 2013 (Jamaal Charles), and the first with at least three scrimmage TDs in four different games since 2006 (Tomlinson).

Now, I know what you're thinking: If Saquon Barkley didn't win last year, why should Taylor have a chance to win this year? Well, as historic as Barkley's 2024 campaign was, Taylor has already scored nearly as many touchdowns (14) as Barkley did all of last year (15), and his yardage totals are on pace to be roughly the same. Still, he faces an uphill battle to say the least.

Fighting history: Just three non-QBs have won MVP in the last 20 years, and none since Adrian Peterson in 2012. That's right: The last 12 MVPs have all been signal-callers, representing the NFL's shift to a full-throttle passing league.

There are a few things working in Taylor's favor, though. For starters, Indy is on track to clinch a top-two seed, which has more or less become a prerequisite. Plus, his numbers compare well with the recent RB winners (Peterson in 2012, Tomlinson in 2006, Shaun Alexander in 2005).

The question is whether any QBs this year will have good enough seasons to beat out what's looking like an all-time great season from Taylor, as Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson both did last year when Barkley finished third.

The contenders: Taylor has the sixth-best MVP odds (+1400 at BetMGM), trailing Patrick Mahomes (+140), Allen (+350), Drake Maye (+550), Matthew Stafford (+1100) and Baker Mayfield (+1300). The other four guys notwithstanding, Mahomes could be tough to beat if he leads the league in TDs (as he currently does) and the Chiefs keep surging.

Young phenom: 22-year-old righty Trey Yesavage pitched the game of his life, allowing just three hits across seven innings while striking out 12 — the most ever by a rookie in the World Series. In fact, he's the first pitcher ever with 12+ strikeouts and no walks in a World Series game.

Rapid rise: Yesavage, Toronto's first-round pick last year, started this season in Single-A and was still in the minors until September. He's made more big league starts in the playoffs (5) than the regular season (3), and is now the first rookie in postseason history with multiple 10-strikeout games.

Bash brothers: The Blue Jays scored five runs off Blake Snell for the second time this series, and they got the party started right away as Davis Schneider and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hit the first back-to-back homers ever to lead off a World Series game. Please do yourself a favor and watch Schneider's dad's reaction to his son's home run.

Vladdy's unconscious: In 16 games this postseason, Guerrero has 8 home runs, 15 RBI, 12 walks and just five strikeouts. His 1.337 OPS is the second-best ever in a single postseason (min. 60 PA), trailing only Barry Bonds in 2002.

Looking ahead: The series heads back to Toronto tomorrow for Game 6, and history is on the Jays side: The winner of Game 5 in a World Series that was tied 2-2 has gone on to win the series 67% of the time, including six of the last seven.

🎿 Vonn gears up for one last run

After a five-year retirement, Lindsey Vonn is back, confident she can compete for a medal in the 2026 Olympics.

From Yahoo Sports' Jay Busbee:

Every day on the slopes ends with one last run, one last look at the sun setting on the mountains, one last chance to take in the dying light. It's a time for reflection, a chance for gratitude, and a recognition that no one can bargain with the inevitable passage of time.

Unless you're Lindsey Vonn. For her, time is just another opponent to outrace.

"I've built a great life outside of skiing, but there will never be anything like skiing," Vonn, 41, said Tuesday at a Team USA summit celebrating 100 days to the 2026 Winter Olympics. "I fully understand that, and I'm comfortable with that. But I'm definitely going to enjoy this last bit of adrenaline, because I won't get it back."

Vonn has ended a five-year retirement with the goal of competing in her fifth Olympics next year in Italy. Already one of the most accomplished winter athletes of all time, she's hoping for one last run, Tom Brady-style, to close off a landmark career.

The combination of two fortunate circumstances opened the way for Vonn to contemplate a return. First is the fact that the 2026 Olympics are being held at Cortina d'Ampezzo, a mountain where Vonn has been nothing short of dominant. She owns 12 World Cup wins at Cortina, and captured her first podium there.

"I don't think I would have tried this comeback if the Olympics weren't in Cortina," Vonn said. "If it had been anywhere else, I would probably say it's not worth it. But for me, there's something special about Cortina that always pulls me back, and it's pulled me back one last time."

More critically, however, Vonn underwent a partial knee replacement in the spring of 2024 that effectively gave her an opportunity to reconsider the contours, and in effect the conclusion, of her career.

"I remind myself every day how lucky I am to be here. I never expected to be here," she said. "There is that appreciation of the journey. But don't get it twisted. I'm a results-based, driven person. I'm looking to do well. I'm not just a participant."

🏈 Ravens at Dolphins | 8:15pm ET, Prime

Lamar Jackson is set to return for the Ravens after missing three games (hamstring). His presence should provide a huge boost for a 2-5 team trying to claw their way back into playoff contention.

Betting favorite: Despite their 2-5 start, the Ravens are still favored to win the AFC North (-125 at BetMGM) over the Steelers (+160), who are 4-3 but have lost two straight.

🏀 Warriors at Bucks | 8pm, NBA

Like you aren't going to tune in for a matchup between Steph Curry and Giannis Antetokounmpo? Steph looks as good as ever to open his age-37 season (27-4-5 on 42% 3PT), while Giannis has been flat-out ridiculous (36-14-7 on 69.5% FG).

🏀 The rise of the full-court press

(Davis Long/Yahoo Sports)

The early NBA trend that's turning heads? The rise of the full-court press, writes Yahoo Sports' Kevin O'Connor.

By the numbers: Through the first week of the season, teams are pressing on 4.8% of possessions, nearly quintupling the 1% from a decade ago and nearly doubling the 2.5% from just two seasons ago.

Trivia answer: Lake Placid, USA (1932, 1980); Innsbruck, Austria (1964, 1976); St. Moritz, Switzerland (1928, 1948)
