ReportFugitives of the Federation for their daring rescue of Spock from the doomed Genesis Planet, Admiral Kirk (William Shatner) and his crew begin their journey home to face justice for their actions. But as they near Earth, they find it at the mercy of a mysterious alien presence whose signals are slowly destroying the planet. In a desperate attempt to answer the call of the probe, Kirk and his crew race back to the late twentieth century. However they soon find the world they once knew to be more alien than anything they've encountered in the far reaches of the galaxy!

No. A woman does warn two strange men she gives a lift to not to try anything because she has a tyre iron where she can reach it.

There's quite a bit of mild cursing, but it's meant to be funny in its context. Words like "damn", "hell", "dipshit", "dumbass", "double dumbass". Nothing too bad. Also, a punk guy on a bus gives the middle finger.

Up for debate. During the hospital scene, kirk et al goes in with Gillian taylor on a stretcher and leaves with Chekov on it. A security guard remarks but you came in with a woman!" Kirk replies "one little mistake".

A minor character in the hospital sequence is in hospital for kidney dialysis. It's not dwelt on for long, and is not significant to the rest of the story.

No, although a character is brought from the past to the future so technically will have no home but they are shown to have adjusted and got a job.
