The Immunity Syndrome
Stardate 4308.8:
The giant creature will soon reproduce, and Kirk realizes it must be stopped. But the amoeba is surrounded by a zone of darkness that absorbs all forms of energy, including the strength of every living creature within range. Gradually, every system on the ship is failing, and without a plan of attack every member of the crew will die.
"Here we are, antibodies of our own galaxy. attacking an invading germ. It would be ironic indeed if that were our sole destiny." - Dr. McCoy |

Both Spock and McCoy volunteer for what may be a suicide flight, to pilot a shuttle into the heart of the creature and locate its weakest spot. Kirk picks Spock to undertake the mission. Based on the Vulcan's recommendation, an antimatter charge fired into the creature's nucleus destroys it before it can reproduce. Spock returns safely to the Enterprise just as his shuttle's life-support systems are exhausted.

A Piece of the Action
Stardate unknown:
When the Federation vessel U.S.S. Horizon visited planet Sigma Iotia II, the Prime Directive was not yet in effect. Before their departure, the crew left behind some books. A century later, as Kirk and company beam down, they are greeted by gangsters brandishing machine guns. The imitative lotians have patterned a new, violent culture after one of these books: Chicago Mobs of the Twenties.
"Logic and practical information do not seem to apply here." - Mr Spock
"You admit that?" - Dr. McCoy
"
To deny the facts would be illogical, Doctor." - Mr. Spock |

Stardate unknown:
Iotia is now divided into territories of various sizes ruled by bosses and their gangs. Bela Oxmyx, the biggest boss with the largest territory, makes Kirk an offer. Since lotia must be united before it can become a peaceful world, Bela wants to take over, using phasers supplied by the Captain. When Kirk refuses, the gangster threatens to kill the landing party.

Overpowering their captors, Kirk proceeds to enforce the Prime Directive, negotiating in terms the Iotians can under-stand. Using the transporter, he assembles the bosses in Oxmyx's office for a summit meeting. Announcing that the Federation is the most powerful outfit around, Kirk demonstrates his vessel's power and declares that from now on Oxmyx will rule lotia — and the Federation will collect an annual piece of the action.

Stardate 4657.5:
Rojan and his small party of Kelvans came here long ago from Andromeda, and assumed human form. Their studies complete, the Kelvans, needing a vessel in which to return home to report that our galaxy can be colonized by their kind, attract the Enterprise with a fake distress call. Taken by surprise, Kirk and his landing party become prisoners of the Kelvans, led by Rojan and Kelinda.
"I'm sorry, This galaxy is already occupied." - Captain Kirk to Rojan, who has threatened to conquer our galaxy |

Kirk watches helplessly as the Kelvans demonstrate their power by transforming two of his officers into inert blocks — and crush one block, killing Yeoman Leslie Thompson. Boarding the Enterprise, the Kelvans modify the starship's engines and repeat the conversion process, turning almost everyone aboard into chemical blocks. Outnumbered, and facing a journey that will take 300 years, only Kirk, Spock, McCoy and Scotty, are left to defeat the aliens.
"This cultural mystique surrounding the biological function — you realize humans are overly preoccupied with the subject." - Kelinda commenting on love |

Stardate 4658.9:
The Kelvans' major weakness is their unfamiliarity with their human emotions. Kirk and company implement a plan to disorient the aliens and turn them against each other. Kelinda responds to Kirk's overtures, and this makes Rojan so jealous he can hardly think. To get another Kelvan drunk, Scotty sacrifices his store of alien liquors. The aliens, accepting that they are now truly human, agree to live peacefully in this galaxy.

Answering an S.O.S., Kirk, McCoy and Dr. Ann Mulhall meet the last survivors of the planet Arret's civilization. Sargon, Thalassa and Henoch escaped death by storing their conscious minds in special receptacles many centuries ago. Now planning to construct android bodies in which to house their minds, the aliens want to borrow the bodies of their visitors to accomplish this task.
"Risk — risk is our business. That's what this starship is all about." - Captain Kirk, reflecting on Sargon's proposition |

Stardate 4768.3:
Sargon assures Kirk that his people will be safe, their minds stored for a short time in the same containers now occupied by the aliens. Dr. McCoy's chief concern is that the human bodies can be destroyed by the high metabolic rate the aliens will require to occupy them. The real danger is Henoch, who intends to keep Spock's body, kill Sargon, and take Thalassa for himself.
"He's dead." - Dr. McCoy, over the body of Captain Kirk. |

After the exchange of minds, Henoch, now in Spock's body, apparently forces Nurse Chapel to poison Kirk's body, then destroys the globe that houses Spock's mind. Spock's consciousness escapes by entering the mind of Christine Chapel. He then destroys Henoch by tricking him into leaving Spock's body. Sargon and Thalassa return the borrowed bodies of Kirk and Dr. Mulhall, to explore the universe together in their noncorporeal state.

Stardate 2534.0:
The starship Enterprise is fired on with atomic missiles as it nears the planet Ekos, although computer data indicates that world does not possess nuclear technology. Beaming down to investigate, Kirk and Spock learn that Federation cultural observer John Gill, seeking to give Ekos a more efficient government, has inadvertently created a duplicate of old Earth's Nazi Germany, a police state making war on Zeon, a neighboring planet.
"Very good, Spock. We may make a human out of you yet." - Captain Kirk

Gill's plans were sabotaged by his aide, Melakon, who secretly runs Ekos while keeping the historian heavily drugged. Kirk and Spock meet Daras, honored by Melakon for turning her father over to the Nazis, and Eneg, chairman of the Nazi party. Both are secretly members of the Ekosian underground, which assists Kirk in locating John Gill and undoing the terrible damage he has caused.
"Note the sinister eyes and malformed ears. Definitely an inferior race… Note the low forehead denoting stupidity." - Melakon, referring to the captured Mr. Spock |

Stardate 2534.0:
The drugged Gill is positioned before TV cameras, a microphone hiding his mouth, so that Melakon can secretly deliver a rigged speech that the people will believe is coming from the disabled figure. McCoy administers an antidote, and as the weakened Gill begins to denounce the Nazi party, Melakon shoots the historian. The people turn against Melakon and the Nazis are overthrown, ending Gill's disastrous experiment.

The Ultimate Computer
Stardate 4729.4:
Twenty-five years after he revolutionized computer science with his breakthrough in duotronics, Dr. Richard Daystrom has conceived multitronics, using his own human mental patterns as a template for computer programs. Now, despite Captain Kirk's skepticism, Daystrom's new M-5 multitronic computer is being tested aboard the Enterprise, running the vessel during war games in a test designed to reduce the size of starship crews — and eliminate the need for starship captains.
"Did you see the love light in Spock's eyes? The right computer finally came along." - Dr. McCoy |

The Ultimate Computer
Stardate 4731.3:
The Enterprise is pitted against four conventional starships, led by Commodore Robert Wesley, but when Wesley's vessels stage a mock attack, the M-5 responds with deadly force, killing everyone aboard the Excalibur. In programming the M-5, Daystrom had transferred his own mental instability to the computer. Unaware that the M-5 is preventing any communication from Kirk, Wesley prepares to destroy the Enterprise.
"Please, Spock, do me a favor and don't say it's fascinating." - Dr. McCoy
"No, but it is interesting." - Mr. Spock, referring to their M-5 predicament |

The Ultimate Computer
Stardate 4731.3:
Kirk addresses the computer directly, and succeeds in reaching the positive aspects of Daystrom's personality. Understanding it has committed murder and deserves to "die," the M-5 lowers all shields, rendering the Enterprise defenseless. As the remaining starships move in to attack, Scotty disconnects the M-5. Kirk keeps the Enterprise motionless and defenseless. Interpreting this as a signal from Kirk, Wesley calls off the attack, and the Enterprise is saved.

Stardate unknown:
Beaming aboard the starship Exeter, in orbit around planet Omega IV, Kirk, Spock and McCoy find the crew crystallized by a deadly virus. Realizing they can't return to the Enterprise, the trio beams down, hoping to discover a cure for the virus. There they encounter Exeter Captain Ronald Tracey, who explains that the planet's primitive factions, the Caucasian Yangs and the Asian Kohms, have been at war for ten centuries.
"Without water, we're all just three or four pounds of chemicals." - Dr. McCoy |

The Omega Glory
Stardate unknown:
After he unwittingly exposed his crew to the virus, a remnant of an ancient bacteriological war, Captain Tracey beamed down to the planet to live among the Kohms, some of whom are over one thousand years old. To assure his acceptance, Tracey violated the Prime Directive by providing the Kohms with phasers. Tracey imprisons the landing party and demands that McCoy conduct tests to discover the secret of the Kohms' immortality.
"Pity you can't teach me that." - Captain Kirk, on the Vulcan neck pinch.
"I haue tried, Captain." - Mr. Spock |

Stardate unknown:
Despite overwhelming odds, the Yangs conquer the Kohms. Tracey convinces the Yangs that Spock is an evil demon. To save the Vulcan, Kirk defeats Tracey in an ordeal by combat, then wins the Yangs' approval by reciting their "worship words," a distorted version of the United States Constitution. Cured of the virus by exposure to Omega's unique atmosphere, Kirk and company return to the Enterprise with the captive Tracey.
"…bacteriological warfare…in the 1990s. Hard to believe we were once foolish enough to play around with that." - Dr. McCoy |

To discover how mankind was saved from destruction in 1968, a crucial year in Earth's history, the Enterprise travels back in time. Intercepting an immensely powerful alien transporter beam, Scotty diverts humanoid Gary Seven and Isis, his shape-changing cat. When Mr. Seven escapes to Earth, Kirk and Spock track him to New York City and beam down to discover his mission and stop him if necessary.
"Without facts, the decision cannot be made logically. You must rely on your human intuition." - Mr. Spock to Capt. Kirk, on the question of whether to trust Gary Seven |

"To defeat the aliens known as Korob and Sylvia, I used weapons that Mr. Spock is fond of reminding me I possess in abundance — my human emotions. The bodies the aliens created for themselves were their undoing, for with them came feelings with which they were totally unfamiliar. In the end Korob recognized Sylvia's emotional corruption, which I had encouraged to turn the invaders against each other."

"Certain images and circumstances inspire fear in many of the humanoid species known to exist within this galaxy. As invaders, Korob and Sylvia utilized those factors to create an atmosphere of terror to use against the crew of the Enterprise. Their method, however, provided Captain Kirk with a means to counter their attack, since intense human emotions are far more dangerous than the illusion of the supernatural."

SYLVIA
In reality a small, fragile nonhumanoid creature from outside our galaxy, Sylvia assumed the appearance of a young human female to survive on planet Pyris VII. Her newly-acquired human emotions caused Sylvia to reject Korob, her alien companion. Forgetting her original mission of conquest, Sylvia's attempts to seduce Captain Kirk led to increasingly violent and sadistic behavior that caused Korob's death and her own, and almost destroyed the starship Enterprise. |

Metamorphosis
"Encountering a human being on Gamma Canaris N was something of a surprise, particularly when he turned out to be a renowned scientist, two centuries old. During his time on that planet, Zefram Cochrane recognized that the entity there had restored his youth, but he failed to grasp the true nature of 'The Companion's' feelings toward him; he did not see that along with immortality he was being offered a more precious gift — the gift of love."
— Captain Kirk |

Metamorphosis
"Our encounter with 'The Companion' was the Federation's first contact with this hitherto undiscovered energy based life form. Although possibly unique, this entity demonstrated such familiar characteristics as compassion, curiosity, and the need to love and be loved in return. Most significant, in curing Mr. Cochrane's xenophobia and Commissioner Hedford's terminal illness by merging with Miss Hedford, the Companion willingly surrendered her immortality."

Zefram Cochrane of Alpha Centauri was a young man when his discoveries made it possible for man to travel faster than the speed of light. Many years later, the lonely, aging scientist encountered an energy-being in outer space. This entity, "The Companion," restored his youth. When "The Companion" saved the life of a dying woman by merging with her, the 237-year-old Cochrane fell in love with the resulting composite lifeform. |

The events on Capella IV compelled me to function simultaneously as diplomat and soldier.

"Some members of the Federation Council, considering only comparative levels of scientific development, would classify the Klingons as more civilized than the Capellans. Indeed, the Klingons have achieved interstellar travel while the Capellans have yet to discover the steam engine.

Who Mourns for Adonais?
"Apollo and his fellows taught humanity so much; yet, in conveying their values, they also gave the human race the knowledge and principles it needed to advance beyond the need to worship them. One by one, Zeus and the other gods vanished, until only Apollo remained. Although it was my duty to destroy his power and get my people away from Pollux IV, I am sorry that Apollo elected to join his fellows in oblivion."

Using procedures patterned after those we implemented, the unit will eliminate any similar entities."

"Since no human could have lived through the centuries to commit the murders in question, our conclusion was to seek another form of life — one that could travel quickly and unobserved.

"Nomad had destroyed the populations of entire worlds, and now it was aboard my ship. Any slip I made while it was listening could have led to the death of everyone on the Enterprise, of everyone on Earth.

"The mind meld I initiated with Nomad proved to be an extraordinary and most dangerous experience.

"It was most distressing to see how Vaal, a computer, had limited the growth of civilization on Gamma Trianguli VI. Since the intent of those who programmed Vaal remains unknown, it is not possible to divine their motives.

"My assignment, to protect a shipment of hybrid grain, was plagued by many problems: the arrogant captain Koloth, the unbelievably irritating Nilz [Baris], and Cyrano Jones with his millions of tribbles. Those prolific furballs did us a great service, though: alerting us that the grain had been poisoned, and exposing [Baris]'s obnoxious assistant as a Klingon spy."

The Trouble with Tribbles
*I can't tell you which planet tribbles come from, but I am reasonably sure that it's completely covered with fur. I'd like to study those cute little warmblooded things further, but to study them you have to have some, and if you have some then you soon have far too many. Perhaps the exact details of how tribbles reproduce will remain one of the galaxy's many mysteries."

The Trouble with Tribbles
CYRANO JONES
Gravel-voiced Crano Jones is a licensed asteroid locator who prefers to make his living by finding and selling unusual merchandise. The many pockets of his baggy suit are typically filled with Spican flame gems, Antarian Glow Water, and other exotic items. For carelessly introducing tribbles to Deep Space Station K-7, Jones is currently serving a 17-year sentence there, attempting to remove nearly two million of the prolific furry creatures from that facility. |

Bread and Circuses
"Like the ancient Romans, the rulers of planet 892 IV chose to grant human rights only to a chosen few, while subjugating most of the population. It will always shame me that the cowardly captain of a Federation vessel chose to become a tyrant there — in contrast to the 'Children of the Son,' and courageous people like Flavius, who may yet succeed in freeing their people."

"One day I'm the Chief Medical Officer aboard a starship, saving lives on hundreds of planets, learning things that will allow other doctors to save many other lives. Then I beam down to planet 892 IV, a place where people have to fight to survive, and I'm useless. I could have done so much to improve their hospitals, but instead they give me a sword and I'm Leonard McCoy, Gladiator. Useless."

Merrick failed a psychosimulator test at Starfleet Academy he entered the merchant service and eventually became captain of a survey vessel, the S.S. Beagle.

Journey to Babel
"When I first met Mr. Spock, I read every article about him I could find. The medical journals had covered his conception in great detail. His Starfleet medical record told me a little more, and his psychological profile convinced me that he was a mystery to everyone, including himself. Not true. Sarek and Amanda are the source of everything he is, and when I met them I think I really understood Spock for the first time."

The Gamesters of Triskelion
"Someone once told me that immortality consists largely of boredom. For the Providers, that boredom was compounded by their lack of physical sensation, and the total absence of any passion within them except a passion for gambling.

"My failure to stop the cloud creature had haunted me all those years. Did Captain Garrovick die because I didn't fire quickly enough? Only now do I have the answer.

Now that the creature is dead I can finally try to put it into perspective."

"This thing was a bringer of death on a cosmic scale. When I learned that all life in the entire Gamma 7A System had been wiped out by this single organism, and that the amoeba would soon begin to reproduce, two things were clear: My duty was to protect the universe by killing this creature, and to accomplish this objective, my crew, my ship — had all become expendable."

Casting was able to find other statuesque extras, and costuming helped by putting them in boots with built up heels. The tribesmen wore tall hoods that added inches to their height. The tribeswomen's hair was braided into a crown-like style with a small headpiece on top of that. The only problem was that when the other actors stood on set with these lofty people, they looked like they were standing in a ditch!" |

"Bill Theiss' costume for Leslie Parrish was one of the most daring ever designed for Star Trek. Pink chiffon material wasn't unusual. It was how it was used. The hip hugger skirt felt to the floor but was slit to the upper thigh on each side. The top of the gown was fastened to a single point on the waist, covered Leslie's chest discreetly, and fell over one shoulder into a train. The weight of the material in the train was the only thing that held up the front of the dress. Leslie said she felt perfectly comfortable wearing it - but as a precaution, it was firmly glued to her body. |

The lirpa was used in the manner of military pugil sticks, but with an edge.

But the Constellation had to be shown damaged, and the two Enterprise models could not be ruined. The answer lay in the model kits from AMT. One of these was put together and then artistically damaged to create the stricken U.S.S. Constellation. And, of course, its number was carefully painted in as NCC 1017." |

"Actor Vic Perrin, who provided the voice for the evil space probe Nomad, also did the voice-overs as Balok in 'The Corbonite Manuever,' the Metron in 'Arena' and Tharn in 'Mirror, Mirror.'"
"Nomad was first named Altair in both this episode's story outline and first draft script, and it was originally going to be a tiny spaceship." |

The Changeling
with D.C. FONTANA, series writer
"Somewhat over three feet high, Nomad was supposed to hover on anti-gravity beams. Special Effects chief Jim Rugg had to rig something practical to make the probe appear to float. In scenes where Nomad was seen fully, Rugg strung it up on thin wires which could be manipulated from overhead. Today, 'wire removal' using a computer to erase the telltale lines is commonplace; but in 1967, careful lighting and camera angles were required to keep the wires from being detected. When Nomad's base was below the frame of the shot, it was loaded onto a spare camera dolly and pushed around the set." |

The Apple
with D.C. FONTANA, series writer
"Sets like the one of Vaal were a challenge to the Star Trek construction crew. Chicken wire was stretched over a wooden framework. After that, there were two methods used to create cave walls or rock faces. Either tinfoil was fastened over the frame, molded by hand to form 'rock,' and then painted - or a foam gun was used to 'shoot' the framework, covering it with a rough surface that could then be spray painted. In either case, the surfaces were delicate, and actors always had to be careful about where they put their hands or feet on "the rock. Punching a hole through tinfoil or foam took time to repair, and time was money on a shooting set." |

The Deadly Years

"Makeup artist Fred Phillips had to make Kirk, Spock and McCoy look incredibly ancient in this episode. Bill Shatner didn't take kindly to the intricate process and, after enduring hours of torturous applications of old-age makeup early each morning and extensive 'repairs' after lunch, he jokingly threatened poor innocent me with bodily harm. His 'frustration and anger' were captured on film for posterity." |

The Deadly Years

"The makeup challenge in this episode was formidable. Makeup artist Fred Phillips had to plan and execute not just four old-age makeups, but varying stages as the four actors 'aged.' This involved a number of wigs, facial prostheses, and carefully applied layers of wrinkles and veins on faces, necks and hands. It is interesting to note that, when old age makeup was again required for DeForest Kelley in the pilot for Star Trek: The Next Generation, pictures from this episode were used as reference for his makeup - 19 years later." |

"Life imitates art: compare today's cloning controversy with the multiple androids created by Harry Mudd. To get our clones, I sent casting director Joe D'Agosta out on the streets of Hollywood to find identical twins whom we could turn into multiple duplicate copies of themselves by using optical 'split screen' techniques. I pretended to gloat, thriftily, that we only had to pay the twins we hired and we'd get all the rest of the android 'Alice,' 'Barbara,' 'Maisie' and 'Herman' copies we needed 'for free.'" |

The 'Normans' and 'Stellas' were portrayed by individual actors. Some split-screen photography was used, but in general, these two actors were just carefully shot so as to appear to be multiples when the film was edited." |

The Trouble with Tribbles

"The trouble with tribbles was… the tribbles. They all had to be created from scratch. Background tribbles were simply stuffed balls of fake fur. The ones that had to move were more difficult. These creatures were larger fur balls with attached hoses that ran down the actors' sleeves and activated with bursts of air fired by stagehands crouched out of sight. Special Effects man Jim Rugg made some tribbles walk by taking store bought windup toys and putting a skin of fake fur over them. Sound effects were laid in during post-production, using squeaks and pigeon coos, adding the last element needed to make the tribbles 'real' characters." |

Ads for the 'Jupiter 8' car interrupted the telecast, and there were sly references in dialogue about being in trouble if network ratings of the games went down. Star Trek's own ratings were down, and the network had indicated there might not be a third season. Roddenberry and Coon just had to get in a comment on the situation!" |

'Mister?' 'Junior?' Yes, in this case, it was better to err on the side of caution." |

It is amusing to note that the character of Drusilla, appearing as a slave in the episode 'Bread and Circuses,' also wore a revealing costume of the same silver fabric, and she was similarly attracted to Kirk.

Assignment: Earth
with D.C. FONTANA, series writer
"This episode was intended as a pilot for a new science fiction show set on contemporary Earth. It starred veteran actor Robert Lansing as Gary Seven and introduced Teri Garr as his reluctant assistant Roberta Lincoln. Since a key part of the show involved a rocket launch, a major set was the operation center for the launch and an observation area overlooking it. NASA's Houston operations center was the inspiration for the set, although money constraints demanded a much smaller area of computer consoles and desks. Since NASA had televised some of its orbital launches and flights in earlier years, the general layout and design of the ops center were known." |
