172 EP56.1	Spectre of the Gun Stardate 4385.3: The Enterprise is assigned to make peaceful contact with the Melkotians. In spite of a message buoy warning them off, Kirk and a landing party beam down to the planet. As punishment for this act, Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Scotty and Chekov are dispatched to a distorted simulation of the Wild West town of Tombstone, Arizona. Here, they are set up to be on the losing side of the famous gunfight at the O.K. Corral. And despite all Kirk's protests to the contrary, the local townsfolk believe them to be the Clanton gang. "What can I do, Captain? You know we're always supposed to maintain good relations with the natives." - Chekov, kissing a pretty barmaid	173 EP56.2		Spectre of the Gun Stardate 4385.4: Kirk and the landing party are trapped in Tombstone and look for ways to avoid the showdown at the O.K. Corral. Negotiating with the Earps is ineffective, and even the town sheriff encourages the gunfight. Chekov, a.k.a. Billy Claiborne, is shot dead, even though the historical Claiborne survived the skirmish. A tranquilizer gas concocted by McCoy is the last chance to change the course of events. "It's to kill the pain." - Scotty, downing a shot of bourbon before testing the sleep gas. "But this is painless." - Mr. Spock "You should have warned me sooner, Mr. Spock." - Scotty	174 EP56.3	Spectre of the Gun Stardate 4385.6: History and basic chemistry are not as they should be in the Melkotian recreation of Tombstone. Spock deduces that everything is an illusion, and mind melds with the landing party to ensure that they, too, can reject the Earps' bullets as specters, phantoms of reality. The shootout at the O.K. Corral fails to kill Kirk and his people. Impressed that the captain refuses to kill his enemy in the scenario, the Melkotians invite him to open diplomatic discussions. "We're just human beings, Spock. We don't have that clockwork ticker in our heads like you do. We can't just turn it on and off." - Dr. McCoy
175 EP57.1	Elaan of Troyius Stardate 4372.5: The Dohlman of Elas, a warlike beauty named Elaan, is aboard the Enterprise en route to Troyius. There, she is to marry the leader of that world in an effort to create peace between their two planets. Elaan wants none of it, and stabs the Troyian ambassador, who was to teach her civilized manners. When Kirk is forced to step in as her instructor, the Dohlman binds him to her with her tears which are actually a powerful biochemical agent. "Mr. Spock, the women on your planet are logical. That's the only planet in this galaxy that can make that claim." - Capt. Kirk Likeness rights for France Nuyen ("Elaan") were unavailable.	176 EP57.2		Elaan of Troyius Stardate 4372.6: Kryton, one of Elaan's bodyguards, proves to be in league with the Klingons and sabotages the warp drive of the Enterprise. The attempt to destroy the ship fails, but the dilithium crystals are fused, rendering the Enterprise virtually helpless. During the Klingon attack, Kirk is distracted by his feelings for Elaan, emotions that the Dolman has deliberately roused in order to influence the commander of the powerful starship for her own purposes. "It is of little value. They are common stones." - Elaan, referring to the gems in her necklace. "Common stones… Mr. Spock, do you think Scotty could make use of dilithium crystals?" - Capt. Kirk Likeness rights for France Nuyen ("Elaan") were unavailable.	177 EP57.3	Elaan of Troyius Stardate 4372.7: The reason behind the Klingon attack on the Enterprise becomes clear when it is discovered that dilithium crystals are regarded as common stones in Elaan's planetary system. The starship's warp engines are re-supplied with crystals from the Dolman's wedding necklace, and the Enterprise fights the Klingons into a forced retreat. The battle to save his ship releases Kirk from Elaan's thrall, and she concedes her loss with reluctant grace. "The antidote to a woman of Elas, Doctor, is a starship. The Enterprise infected the captain long before the Dohlman did." - Mr. Spock Likeness rights for France Nuyen ("Elaan") were unavailable.
178 EP58.1	The Paradise Syndrome Stardate 4842.6: Kirk, Spock and McCoy beam down to a peaceful, Earthlike planet and discover it to be a virtual paradise. But it is an Eden threatened by a giant asteroid. While investigating a strange obelisk on his own, Kirk falls victim to an alien beam inside the structure that erases his memory. Spock and McCoy are forced to abandon their search for him in order to take the Enterprise to the point in space where the asteroid can be deflected away from its collision course toward the planet. Unfortunately, their attempts fail, and the Enterprise engines are damaged. "My bairns. My poor bairns." - Scotty, bemoaning his engines	179 EP58.2		The Paradise Syndrome Stardate 4890.0: Kirk loses his memory and adopts the identity of Kirok, medicine chief of an American Indian tribe living on a world half a galaxy away from Earth. He marries the temple priestess, Miramanee, and leads an idyllic life. But the massive asteroid, which the Enterprise has failed to destroy, threatens to collide with the planet. Kirk cannot get back into the temple — actually a powerful deflector — to activate the "blue flame" spirit. Lead by the jealous former medicine chief, Salish, the fearful tribespeople stone Kirok for his failure to help them. "I am Kirok!" - Capt. Kirk	180 EP58.3	The Paradise Syndrome Stardate 4900.1: For two months the damaged Enterprise retreats in front of the asteroid, and Spock works to decipher the symbols found on the obelisk. He finally breaks the code: they are musical notes. Armed with this knowledge, Spock and McCoy beam back down to the planet. There, they find an injured and amnesiac Kirk. Spock uses the Vulcan mind meld to restore the captain's memory, and they are successful in activating the obelisk to deflect the asteroid from the planet. The only casualty is Kirk's wife, Miramanee, and their unborn child. "His mind… he is… an entremely dynamic individual." - Mr. Spock breaking the mind meld with Capt. Kirk
181 EP59.1	The Enterprise Incident Stardate 5027.3: Captain Kirk orders the Enterprise across the Neutral Zone and into Romulan space. There, the starship is quickly surrounded by three Romulan battle cruisers. There seems to be no reason why Kirk would take such action, unless it is for the purpose of espionage. The Romulan commander charges the captain with spying. But testimony from Spock provides another explanation — that Kirk has become emotionally unstable. The captain angrily denounces Spock and vows to kill him, thus convincing the Romulans that Kirk is not fit to command. "I say now, and for the record, that Captain Kirk ordered the Enterprise* across the Neutral Zone on his own initiative and his craving for glory— He is not sane." - Mr. Spock*	182 EP59.2		The Enterprise Incident Stardate 5027.4: Captain Kirk is declared irrational by the Romulan commander, and she gives Spock command of the Enterprise. While being held in the Romulan brig, a suddenly volatile Kirk attacks his traitorous first officer. Spock uses the Vulcan death grip and kills the captain. McCoy is permitted to take the body back to the Enterprise, where he revives Kirk. The captain and Spock are acting under Federation orders to infiltrate the Romulan flagship and appropriate the new cloaking device. Kirk's insanity, and Spock's defection, are a ruse. "I was unprepared for his attack. I instinctively used the Vulcan death grip." - Mr. Spock "Well your instincts are still good, Mr. Spock. The captain is dead." - Dr. McCoy	183 EP59.3	The Enterprise Incident Stardate 5027.5: Kirk is surgically altered to look like a Romulan and beams aboard the enemy flagship. He locates the cloaking device and removes it, while Spock distracts the commander in her quarters. Both are surprised to find themselves responding to each other on a deep and personal level. Even after Spock's subterfuge is revealed, and his death mandated, the Romulan commander follows him in his successful escape to the Enterprise. There, they agree to keep what passed between them a secret, for only the two of them to share. "Military secrets are the [most] fleeting of all" - Mr. Spock The word "most" is missing from the quote on the card.
184 EP60.1	And the Children Shall Lead Stardate 5029.5: Kirk, Spock and McCoy beam down to the planet Triacus to find the entire scientific team stationed there has committed mass suicide. Only their children have survived, and they are strangely unaffected by the deaths of their parents. The five children are taken aboard the Enterprise, where they use a special chant to call up an alien spirit from the planet. It tells them to make sure the crew takes them to Marcos XII, which the youngsters do by means of a special, mind-influencing power. "Hail, hail, fire and snow. Call the angel, we will go. Far away, for to see, Friendly Angel, come to me." - Children's Chant	185 EP60.2		And the Children Shall Lead Stardate 5029.6: The children brought aboard the Enterprise after the deaths of their parents on Triacus are causing the crew to see and do things they normally would not. Sulu is forced to watch daggers flying toward him through space, and Uhura faces a vision of a protracted death. The illusions keep them, and other crew members, from working the ship's controls. An evil entity called the Gorgan is using the children to take control of the Enterprise and transport him to the Federation settlement on Marcos XII. "Evil does seek to maintain power by suppressing the truth…" - Mr. Spock "…or misleading the innocent." - Dr. McCoy	186 EP60.3	And the Children Shall Lead Stardate 5029.7: Kirk attempts to regain control of the Enterprise and turn it from its course toward Marcos XII. There are millions of people on that planet in danger of falling victim to the evil Gorgan that has taken over the starship. Under the influence of the so-called Friendly Angel, the children make Kirk believe he has lost the capacity to command. But the captain fights past the fear, and defeats it. He shows the children the true face of the Gorgan, and they reject him. Without their support, the entity vanishes. "If resistance mounts, call upon their beasts…. The fear in each one of them is the beast which will consume him." - the Gorgan
187 EP61.1	Spock's Brain Stardate 5431.4: A ship of unknown design and origin beams a silent, smiling woman onto the bridge of the Enterprise. She immediately renders the entire crew unconscious. When they awaken, McCoy discovers Spock lying on a diagnostic table, with the Vulcan's brain removed. Kirk follows the trail of the woman's ship to the Sigma Draconis system, where he must determine on which of three class-M planets Spock's brain might be located. And he must do so within twenty-four hours, or Spock will die. "Then we'll have to take him with us." - Capt. Kirk "Take… take him where?" - Dr. McCoy "In search of his brain, doctor.' - Capt. Kirk	188 EP61.2		Spock's Brain Stardate 5431.6: Kirk, McCoy and Scotty take the brainless, mechanized body of Spock to Sigma Draconis VI, where they find an underground society deep below the surface of the glaciated planet. The subterranean environment is populated only by women, and is maintained by a sophisticated computer system called the "Controller". The women, called Eymorg, have no knowledge of the technology that sustains them. Kirk finds this hard to believe, since he recognizes their leader, Kara, as the woman who was aboard the Enterprise and stole Spock's brain. "Brain and brain! What is brain?" - Kara	189 EP61.3	Spock's Brain Stardate 5432.3: Spock's stolen brain is found to be the functional hub of an advanced computer and environmental system controlling life-support and other functions of an underground habitat. The only way to restore the Vulcan's brain to his body is by using the same surgical techniques employed to remove it. To accomplish this, McCoy puts on the "Teacher", a vast storehouse of knowledge. The skills it imparts to the doctor are temporary, however, and McCoy must call upon Spock's own brain to complete the operation. "I should never have reconnected his mouth." - Dr. McCoy
190 EP62.1	Is There In Truth No Beauty? Stardate 5630.8: The Enterprise lies derelict in space, in a completely unknown void. Without any stellar reference points, there is no way to navigate the starship back to its own galaxy. Spock suggests that the noncorporeal Medusan has the ability to pilot the ship though the disorienting energy field, and volunteers to mind link with the ambassador. Miranda Jones objects, jealous of Spock intruding on the rapport she shares with Kollos. But the ambassador's wishes prevail, and Spock successfully joins minds with the Medusan. "The glory of creation is in its infinite diversity." - Dr. Jones	191 EP62.2		Is There In Truth No Beauty? Stardate 5630.9: The Enterprise is brought safely back into known space. Mentally linked with Spock, the Medusan ambassador savors the physical experience of corporeal existence. Distracted by the sensations, he neglects to have Spock put on the protective visor. The Vulcan sees the Medusan and goes dangerously mad. Kirk convinces Miranda to put aside her jealousy and help pull Spock out of the mental abyss. With her formidable telepathic abities and Vulcan -trained disciplines, she does so, and saves Spock from a lifetime of dementia. "A madman got us into this, and it's beginning to look as if only a madman can get us out - Chekov	192 EP62.3	Is There In Truth No Beauty? Stardate 5630.7: Kollos, the Medusan ambassador to the Federation, is aboard the Enterprise on the journey back to his home world. Although members of his race have no form, they are regarded as being so ugly that the sight of them drives a human insane. During an attempt to murder Kollos, Larry Marvik, one of the original designers of the Enterprise sees the Medusan. Severe delirium results, and Marvik takes control of the Enterprise, sending it beyond the rim of the known galaxy in an attempt to escape a delusional threat. "Most of us are attracted by beauty and repelled by ugliness. One of the last of our prejudices." - Capt. Kirk
193 EP63.1	The Empath Stardate 5121.5: The Enterprise is sent to retrieve a pair of scientists from Minara II before its sun goes nova. Kirk, Spock and McCoy beam down, only to find the scientists missing. Record tapes show they disappeared in a flash of light. Then, the same thing happens to the landing party. Kirk, Spock and McCoy are teleported to an underground facility where they meet Gem, a mute empath. "I don't know about you, but I'm going to call her Gem." - Dr. McCoy "Gem, doctor?" - Mr. Spock "Well, it's better than 'hey you'," - Dr. McCoy	194 EP63.2		The Empath Stardate 5121.6: Kirk, Spock and McCoy learn that the two missing Federation scientists have died as a result of an experiment being conducted by two Vians. The landing party becomes part of the experiment as well. Kirk is seriously injured, and Gem heals his wounds. The Vians want to see if Gem will put aside her instinct for self-preservation in favor of self-sacrifice. This will decide whether or not the Vians will save Gem's people from the nova. "The best defense is a strong offense, and I plan to start offending right now." - Capt. Kirk	195 EP63.3	The Empath Stardate 5121.7: McCoy is subjected to near-fatal torture, and Gem hesitates to heal him. Kirk, Spock and the Vians watch as she begins to take his injuries onto herself, then pulls back in fear. The Vians see this as failure, but Kirk observes that it is a failure only on the part of the Vians, not Gem. He says that they have lost the capacity to feel the very compassion they hoped to instill in Gem. The Vians are convinced that Gem and her people are indeed worthy of being saved. Kirk, Spock and McCoy return to the Enterprise and depart the Minaran system. "I would say she was a pearl of great price." - Scotty
196 EP64.1	The Tholian Web Stardate 5693.2: The Enterprise finds the missing Federation starship Defiant adrift in an uncharted sector of space, and further investigation shows that the crew killed one another. While Kirk, Spock, McCoy and Chekov are aboard the Defiant, the ship begins to "dissolve" around them as it slips into a parallel dimension. All but Kirk are safely beamed back to the Enterprise, and the captain disappears along with the Defiant. Athough Spock calculates the next period of dimensional overlap and prepares to rescue Kirk, the appearance of a Tholian ship disturbs the phenomenon. The captain remains trapped in interspace. "We will wait precisely one hour and fifty-three minutes. And be correct. We do not tolerate deceit." - Tholian commander Loskene	197 EP64.2		The Tholian Web Stardate 5693.4: Kirk does not materialize from interspace as Spock calculates and the Tholians attack the Enterprise. Both ships are damaged in the exchange. A second Tholian vessel arrives, and the two begin to weave an energy web around the starship. Meanwhile, the unstable nature of that area of space begins to affect the nervous systems of the Enterprise crew, causing violent outbursts. Kirk is declared dead, and Spock takes command of the ship, which causes McCoy extreme irritation. Spock and McCoy are in conflict, until they play the message tape of Kirk's last orders. "If you get us out of this situation, they'll pin a medal on your chest and give you command of the Enterprise." - Dr. McCoy "Doctor, I am in command of the Enterprise." - Mr. Sock	198 EP64.3	The Tholian Web Stardate 5693.5: The Tholians are close to completing their energy web around the Enterprise. McCoy discovers that a diluted derivative of the Klingon nerve gas, theragen, is effective in combating the mania caused by exposure to the spatial interphase. Spock is successful in using a period of dimensional overlap to throw the Enterprise clear of the Tholians' web and the phantom-like Kirk along with them. The captain is beamed aboard the Enterprise just before the oxygen supply in his environmental suit gives out. "And in this derivative, mined with alcohol, it merely deadens certain nerve inputs to the brain." -Dr. McCoy, speaking of the theragen cure "Oh, well, any decent brand of Scotch will do that." - Scotty
199 EP65.1	For the World Is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky Stardate 5476.3 The Enterprise neutralizes an attack by several atomic missiles, then traces them back to their source — a giant asteroid/ spaceship. It is called Yonada, and living inside are the descendants of the Fabrini civilization. However, they have no idea their world is hollow, let alone on a collision course with Daran V. The high priestess, Natira, is suspicious of Kirk and Spock, but falls in love with McCoy at first sight. The doctor returns her affections, enough so that he chooses to remain on the doomed ship and marry her. "Does McCoy find me attractive?" - Natira "Oh yes… yes I do." - Dr. McCoy	200 EP65.2		For the World Is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky Stardate 5476.5: Kirk and Spock beam back aboard the Enterprise, leaving McCoy behind on the asteroid ship. He has been diagnosed with only a year to live, and he elects to live it with Natira on Yonada. He is the only one on the hollow world who knows it must be destroyed before it collides with an inhabited planet. When McCoy is shown the Book of the People, which is to be opened only when the new, promised world is reached, he realizes it must contain flight control information. His efforts to communicate this to Kirk result in a painful warning from the Oracle computer which controls Yonada. "Bones, this isn't a planet, it's a spaceship -on a collision course with Daran V." - Capt. Kirk "I'm on a kind of a collision course myself, Jim." - Dr. McCoy	201 EP65.3	For the World Is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky Stardate 5476.9: Kirk and Spock returm to the asteroid ship in answer to a call from McCoy. They find him in the throes of the Oracle, a computer/ guardian for the people of Yonada. Natira also suffers the Oracle's warnings when she listens to Kirk's revelations about the true nature of her world. Spock and the captain access the Book of the People and circumvent the Oracle computer. They then make course corrections, allowing Yonada to avoid Daran V and reach its predetermined destination. A cure for McCoys illness is found in the Fabrini medical archives, and he returns to duty on the Enterprise. Natira remains with her people, to guide them when they reach the promised world. "You are living inside a hollow ball." - Capt. Kirk to Natira
202 EP66.1	Day of the Dove Stardate Unknown: The Enterprise answers a distress call from Beta XII-A, and encounters a Klingon ship. Kirk accuses the Klingon commander, Kang, of destroying the Federation colony on the planet, and Kang accuses Kirk of attacking his ship. The Klingons take Kirk and the landing party hostage and lay claim to the Enterprise. When they come aboard the starship, however, Kirk turns the tables on Kang and takes the Klingons prisoner. Kang's wife Mara and the remainder of his crew are beamed aboard the Enterprise, and their disabled battle cruiser is destroyed. "We have no devil, Kirk. But we understand the habits of yours." - Kang	203 EP66.2		Day of the Dove Stardate Unknown: The Enterprise is out of control, traveling at warp nine and on a course headed out of the galaxy. On board, an unknown energy being intensifies the hatred between the Klingons and the humans. It provides both side with primitive swords, and then heals the wounded so that the fighting can continue indefinitely. Kirk discovers that the creature feeds on the emotions of hate and aggression. The only way to defeat it is to stop the fighting, but the Klingon commander, Kang, will not listen. "Only a fool fights in a burning house." - Kang	204 EP66.3	Day of the Dove Stardate Unknown: The Enterprise is in danger of becoming a perpetual battlefield adrift in space. Klingons and humans fight hand-to-hand, and even Spock's Vulcan blood is disparaged by his own crewmates. Kirk convinces Mara that the energy creature is the true threat, and she agrees to take the captain to Kang. The Klingon commander immediately attacks Kirk. The two fight until Kang sees the alien entity for himself, then agrees with Kirk that a truce between them will defeat their common foe. The creature retreats in the face of their common laughter and good will. "Out! We need no urging to hate humans." - Kang to the energy being
205 EP67.1	Plato's Stepchildren Stardate 5784.2: Kirk, Spock and McCoy beam down to Platonius in answer to a medical emergency. Parmen, the leader of the small community there, is seriously ill from a simple scratch. The Platonians possess powerful telekinetic powers, but no resistance to disease. McCoy cures Parmen. But when the doctor later refuses to remain on Platonius permanently, Parmen subjects Kirk and Spock to humiliating displays. "I'm Tweedle-Dee, he's tweedle-Dum…" - Capt. Kirk "We're spacemen marching to and from." - Mr. Spock, both being manipulated by Parmen	206 EP67.2		Plato's Stepchildren Stardate 5784.3: Kirk, Spock and McCoy discover that the Platonians' court jester, Alexander, is the only member of that community who does not have telekinetic powers. With his help, McCoy determines that kironide in the food source produces those abilities. He injects Kirk and Spock with a double dose of the chemical, in hopes that they will attain a telekinetic power level sufficient to defeat Parmen. Later, they are forced into yet another round of staged dramas to amuse the Platonians. "Uncontrolled, power will turn even saints into savages. And we can all be counted on to live down to our lowest impulses." - Parmen	207 EP67.3	Plato's Stepchildren Stardate 5784.4: Uhura and Chapel are beamed to Platonius and made to take part in Parmen's spectacle. Spock sings to the women, and Kirk kisses Uhura, while McCoy is forced to watch helplessly. In the middle of the entertainments, Alexander tries to stab Parmen. When Parmen tries to make the jester turn the knife on himself, Kirk intervenes tele-kinetically. Kirk defeats Parmen at his own game and frees the landing party. Alexander leaves Platonius with the captain, gladly abandoning the not so-perfect utopia. "I guess we weren't sufficiently entertaining." - Capt. Kirk, seeing Uhura and Chapel beamed down by Parmen
208 EP68.1	Wink of an Eye Stardate 5710.5: Answering a distress call from the planet Scalos, Kirk, McCoy, and crewman Compton fail to find the people transmiting the message. The planet is devoid of life, except for an apparent, buzzing, insect form. Compton inexplicably disappears before McCoys eyes while testing the Scalosian water. After Kirk and McCoy beam back up to the Enterprise, the ship's systems start to malfunction, then stabilize, with no explanation. Even more questions and suspicions are raised when an alien device is found attached to the starship's environmental controls. "I was looking at him. I was looking right at him and he… then he just wasn't there." - Dr. McCoy	209 EP68.2		Wink of an Eye Stardate 5710.7: The Enterprise is taken over by the Scalosians. Due to volcanic eruptions on the planet in the past, their race has become hyper-accelerated and unable to reproduce within their own species. The Enterprise is the latest victim of their ongoing scheme to lure in passing spaceships and use the crews as mates. The Scalosian queen, Deela, chooses Kirk to be her king, and accelerates him to her metabolic level. The rest of the Enterprise crew is to be frozen in suspended animation for future use. Kirk resists the Scalosians and Deela as best he can, while Spock and McCoy search for the cause and cure for his disappearance. "Who are you?" - Capt. Kirk "Deela — the enemy." - Deela	210 EP68.3	Wink of an Eye Stardate 5710.9: Kirk lulls Deela into relaxing her guard, then takes her weapon. He uses it to destroy the alien freezer unit. He is joined by Spock, who has drunk the Scalosian water and been accelerated like Kirk. Together they overcome the Scalosian threat to the Enterprise and return the aliens to their planet. Kirk is restored to his normal metabolic rate. Spock temporarily remains in a hyper-accelerated state in order to effect repairs to the starship. Then he, too, returns to normal. "I found it an accelerating experience." - Mr. Spock
211 EP69.1	That Which Survives Stardate Unknown Kirk, McCoy, Sulu and geologist D'Amato prepare to beam down to study an anomalous planet. As they are dematerializing, an unidentified woman appears and kills the transporter officer. Kirk and the landing party are stranded on the planet when the Enterprise mysteriously disappears from orbit. An unknown force transports the starship nearly one thousand light years from the planet, while the strange woman appears again and kills an Engineering crewman by means of cellular disruption. "What a terrible way to die." - Sulu "There are no good ways." - Capt. Kirk	212 EP69.2		That Which Survives Stardate Unknown As the Enterprise makes its way back to the planet, the ship's engines begin to accelerate to excessive warp speeds. The starship is in danger of exploding if the matter-antimatter energy flow cannot be brought back under control. On the planet, D'Amato is killed by the woman the landing party saw just before they beamed off the Enterprise. She later nearly does the same to Sulu by merely touching him on the shoulder. However, when she is unable to harm Kirk with her touch, they deduce the limits of her destructive power. "Killing is wrong." - Losira	213 EP69.3	That Which Survives Stardate Unknown Kirk, McCoy and Sulu find a hidden alien outpost on the planet. Its computer is still active and is running a defense program. The unknown woman is actually an image of the long-dead colony commander, Losira, which the computer is utilizing to carry out its function. On the Enterprise, Scotty tries to repair the magnetic containment field of the matter antimatter energy flow. If he cannot, the ship will explode. He succeeds, with barely seconds to spare. The Enterprise returns to the planet, and Spock beams down just in time to save Kirk, McCoy and Sulu from the triple threat of three Losiras. "You haue eight minutes, forty-one seconds." - Mr. Spock "I know what time it is. I don't need a bloomin' cuckoo clock." - Scotty
214 EP70.1	Let That Be Your Last Battlefield Stardate 5730.2: The Enterprise intercepts a Federation shuttle craft, which has been stolen by an alien the likes of which they have never seen before. One half of his face is black, and the other half is white. McCoy is about to enter him into the medical records as a rare genetic mutation when a second member of his species appears. The two are named Bele and Lokai, and they are bitter enemies. Bele is intent on taking Lokai back to their home world of Cheron — so much so that he diverts the Enterprise from its urgent mission to plague-stricken Ariannus. "You're two of a kind." - Capt. Kirk	215 EP70.2		Let That Be Your Last Battlefield Stardate 5730.6: Bele and Kirk fight a war of wills for control of the Enterprise. Only when the captain nearly makes good on his threat to destroy the ship does Bele relent. The Enterprise proceeds on its mission to decontaminate the planet Ariannus. Meanwhile, Lokai attempts to sway members of the crew to his cause — to free his people from oppression. He insists that he fights a radical, racial prejudice on Cheron. Bele, on the other hand, makes no secret of his hatred of Lokai, whom he considers an inferior breed. "Computer, this is Captain James Kirk of the U.S.S. Enterprise. Destruct sequence one, code one, one A." - Capt. Kirk	216 EP70.3	Let That Be Your Last Battlefield Stardate 5730.7: The mission of mercy to Ariannus is complete, and Bele once more hijacks control of the Enterprise. The ship is forced on a course to Cheron. Upon their arrival, it is discovered that the entire population of the planet is dead as a result of their racial hatreds. Lokai and Bele attack each [other] on the bridge of the Enterprise, gripped in their long-standing, mutual hatred. Lokai flees to the surface of his destroyed world, and Bele pursues. It becomes their final battleground. "There's nobody left alive on Cheron because of hate. The cause you fought about no longer exists." - Capt. Kirk "…each another…" corrected to "…each other…"
217 EP71.1	Whom Gods Destroy Stardate 5718.3: Kirk and Spock beam down to the mental asylum on Elba II to deliver new medicine that will help cure the violently insane patients there. But the two are taken hostage by Garth, an inmate who can shiftshape. Garth was once a Starfleet captain, but an accident left him insane. He plans to capture the Enterprise and begin a mission of conquest across the galaxy. Garth impersonates Kirk and tries to beam up to the ship, but cannot give the countersign to the captain's pre-arranged code. "Queen to queen's level three." - Scotty "We have no time for chess problems. Beam me up." - Garth impersonating Capt. Kirk	218 EP71.2		Whom Gods Destroy Stardate 5718.4: Kirk is forced to take part in Garth's mad demonstrations. Marta, a female inmate, makes overtures toward the captain, then tries to kill him. Later, Garth uses her to show Kirk the destructive power of a new explosive he has invented. Despite the threats and torture inflicted upon him, Captain Kirk refuses to reveal the beam-out countersign. "She's yours if you wish, Captain." - Garth, referring to Marta "Thank you. That's… um… very magnanimous of you." - Capt. Kirk	219 EP71.3	Whom Gods Destroy Stardate 5718.5: Garth is unable to trick or coerce Kirk into telling him the countersign that will get him beamed up to the Enterprise. His delusions of conquest depend on the starship. Garth attempts to fool Spock into giving him the code by impersonating Kirk. A struggle between the identical captains breaks out, and Spock is forced to choose which one to incapacitate. The Vulcan makes the correct selection, and Garth is subdued at last. "Queen to king's level one." - Capt. Kirk
220 EP72.1	The Mark of Gideon Stardate 5423.4: Kirk beams down to Gideon at the special request of the planet's ruling council, but never arrives in their chambers. Instead, he materializes on an empty Enterprise. He cannot understand where his crew went, and Spock cannot determine where the captain went. The Gideon council will not allow anyone else to beam down to the planet to search for Kirk, and Spock finds Starfleet Command just as reluctant to give permission. "We must acknowledge, once and for all, that the purpose of diplomacy is to prolong a crisis."- Mr. Spock	221 EP72.2		The Mark of Gideon Stardate 5423.6: Spock pursues diplomatic channels for permission to beam down to Gideon and search for Kirk. Meanwhile, the captain finds he is not alone on the empty Enterprise — there is also a woman named Odona. She cannot say where she is from or how she got there, but she does reveal that her home is immensely crowded and that her people would willingly die to find a place alone like this. Later, Kirk and Odona are shocked to momentarily glimpse a dense crowd of people pressed against a viewing port, even though the ship is supposedly in space. "Diplomats and bureaucrats may function differently, but they achieve the same results." - Mr. Spock	222 EP72.3	The Mark of Gideon Stardate 5423.8: Spock determines Kirk's location by comparing beam-down coordinates, and materializes on the empty Enterprise. He realizes it is an exact duplicate of the starship, and conducts a search for the captain. Kirk is with Odona, who is dying from Vegan choriomeningitis she has deliberately contracted from him. She is acting for the people of Gideon, where death is rare and the planet is critically overpopulated. McCoy cures her illness but Odona now has the ability to spread the disease herself. It is the first step on the road of recovery for Gideon. "As crowded as my planet is, I could wish for it to hold one mare person." - Odona to Capt. Kirk
223 EP73.1	The Lights of Zetar Stardate 5725.3: The Enterprise is en route to Memory Alpha, the Federation's central library archive. The ship encounters an unknown energy phenomenon that penetrates the bridge and affects different parts of the crews brains. Mira Romaine collapses when the phenomenon withdraws. In sickbay, she is watched over by Scotty, who is in love with her. Meanwhile, the energy phenomenon attacks Memory Alpha, killing everyone on the facility. "Well, I'm relieved to hear your prognosis, Mr. Scott. Is the doctor there with you, or will I find him in Engineering?" - Capt. Kirk, annoyed with Scotty's preoccupation	224 EP73.2		The Lights of Zetar Stardate 5725.4: Mira Romaine sees things she cannot explain. She and Scotty assume it is merely a touch of space sickness, and do not report it. Later, the energy phenomenon returns to Memory Alpha and pursues the Enterprise. Spock discovers that the phenomenon is actually a community of at least ten distinct life units. A phaser blast directed into the heart of the collection seriously injures Romaine, suggesting she is somehow connected to them. Indeed, her brain wave patterns are beginning to match that of the community's. "What is it?" - Capt. Kirk "Not what is it, Captain, what are they?" - Mr. Spock	225 EP73.3	The Lights of Zetar Stardate 5725.5: The energy phenomenon takes possession of Mira Romaine's body. The life units identify themselves as the last hopes, desires and will of the people of Zetar, a planet destroyed long ago. They intend to live out the remainder of their existence in Romaine. Convinced Mira will not harm him because of their love, Scotty risks placing her in a decompression chamber. The Zetarian life units are driven from Romaine's body by the increasing pressure, and destroyed. "Well, this is an Enterprise first. Dr. McCoy, Mr. Spock, and Engineer Scott find themselves in complete agreement. Can I stand the strain?" - Capt. Kirk after getting opinions regarding Romaine's recovery
226 EP74.1	The Cloud Minders Stardate 5818.4: Kirk and Spock beam down to the surface of Ardana to collect a consignment of zenite, and are attacked by Troglyte miners — rebels in a cause for social equality with the Stratos cloud city dwellers. While on Stratos, Spock is drawn to Droxine, the daughter of the High Adviser, and Kirk is set upon by Vanna, a Troglyte leader. The High Adviser, Plasus, tortures Vanna to gain information about the rebels. Kirk protests the treatment, and is told flatly not to interfere. "Violence in reality is quite different from theory." - Mr. Spock	227 EP74.2		The Cloud Minders Stardate 5819.0: Kirk becomes involved in the Troglyte dispute with the Stratos city dwellers in order to find the zenite consignment. McCoy discovers that the raw mineral produces a gas which causes mental retardation and violent tendencies in anyone exposed to it. Plasus discounts the findings as absurd, firm in his belief that the Troglytes are naturally inferior to city dwellers. Even the Troglyte leader, Vanna, finds the idea hard to believe. She lures Kirk back down to the mines, where he is held hostage by the rebels. "Gas from zenite? It's hard to beleve that something which is neither seen nor felt can do so much harm." - Vanna "That's true, but an idea can't be seen or felt. And that's what's kept the Troglytes in the mines all these centuries. A mistaken idea'." - Capt. Kirk	228 EP74.3	The Cloud Minders Stardate 5819.3: To prove his point about the zenite gas, Kirk seals himself and Vanna in the mines. Then he has Plasus beamed down into the cave. Trapped together, Kirk waits for the gas to take effect — before the oxygen runs out. When Plasus attacks Kirk in a rage, Vanna sees that the captain is right about the gas. She accepts his offer about protective filter masks, and produces the missing zenite consignment. "Hours can be centuries" - Vanna
229 EP75.1	The Way To Eden Stardate 5832.3: The Enterprise intercepts the stolen space cruiser Aurora, and takes into custody a group of young idealistic rebels led by former scientist Dr. Sevrin. They claim to be searching for a planet called Eden. Among their number is the son of the Catullan ambassador, and Irina Galliulin, a young woman who attended Starfleet Academy with Chekov. The group rejects Kirk, as he represents Federation authority, but is receptive to Spock, who is familiar with their ideals and speaks their slang. "Oh, Herbert — you are stiff!" - Adam to Capt. Kirk	230 EP75.2		The Way To Eden Stardate 5832.5: A medical checkup reveals Dr. Sevrin is a carrier of a deadly virus, Synthococcus novae, and is put into isolation. His followers are free to roam the ship, however, and attempt to recruit members of the Enterprise crew to their rebellious philosophies. Irina works on Chekov, and finds out that Spock is trying to locate Eden for them. Sevrin escapes confinement during the distraction of a music jam session and gains control of the Enterprise. "Hey, how about a session, you and us? It would sound!" - Adam to Mr. Spock	231 EP75.3	The Way To Eden Stardate 5832.6: Sevrin and his followers hijack control of the Enterprise and send it on a course to the planet Eden, which is located in Romulan space. He incapacitates the crew with a sonic bombardment, and escapes to the planet with his followers. Kirk, Spock, McCoy and Chekov pursue them to the surface, where they find that all the plant life is toxic. Sevrin dies after eating a poisonous fruit. "Poison. The fruit is deadly." - Dr. McCoy
232 EP76.1	Requiem for Methuselah Stardate 5843.7: A virulent disease spreads among the crew of the Enterprise, and the only known antidote is [ryetalyn]. Kirk, Spock and McCoy beam down to Holberg 917G in search of the substance, and encounter a man named Flint. At first he is hostile toward the landing party, then offers to help them collect and process the [ryetalyn]. In his home, they find many uncatalogued and unknown works of art by Da Vinci, Brahms and others. They are also introduced to Rayna Kapec, with whom Kirk swiftly falls in love. "What is lonliness?" - Vanna "It is thirst. It is a flower, dying in the desert." - Flint Quote wrongly attributed to "Vanna" instead of "Rayna" ryetalyn misspelled "ryetalin" on card	233 EP76.2		Requiem for Methuselah Stardate 5843.8: The first batch of processed [ryetalyn] proves to be contaminated and must be replaced. The landing party is forced to stay as Flint's guests a while longer. In Flint's home, Spock discovers a Brahms waltz written in the maestro's hand, but with modern ink, and paintings by Da Vinci executed in modern oils. Kirk becomes impatient and searches Flint's lab for the [ryetalyn]. He finds it — and a row of deactivated Rayna androids. "Stay out of this. We're fighting over a woman." - Capt. Kirk as he fights Flint over Rayna "No, you're not — for she is not." - Mr. Spock ryetalyn misspelled "ryetalin" twice on card	234 EP76.3	Requiem for Methuselah Stardate 5843.9: Kirk and Flint fight for possession of Rayna. Both are in love with her, even though she is an android. But the onslaught of her new-found emotions overwhelms and destroys her. Flint reveals that he created her to fill the endless years of his immortal life he has lived for 6,000 years and been Da Vinci, Brahms, Merlin, Methuselah and many others throughout history. Kirk returns to the Enterprise with the lifesaving [ryetalyn], but with a broken heart. Spock helps ease the captain's anguish with a Vulcan mind touch. "A very old and lonely man, and a young and lonely man… If only I could forget." - Capt. Kirk "…Forget…." - Mr. Spock ryetalyn misspelled "ryetalin" twice on card
235 EP77.1	The Savage Curtain Stardate 5906.4: In orbit above a molten and uninhabitable planet, the Enterprise is confronted with the image of Abraham Lincoln floating in space before them. Kirk welcomes him aboard with full presidential honors. McCoy and Scotty doubt that this is the real Lincoln, and object when Kirk and Spock accept his invitation to beam down to the planet. An Earth-like area forms on the surface, and here they meet Surak, the historical "father" of Vulcan society. "President Lincoln, indeed! No doubt to be followed by Louis of France and Robert the Bruce." - Scotty	236 EP77.2		The Savage Curtain Stardate 5906.5: Kirk and Spock are forced to participate in a "spectacle" for the benefit of the planet's native life-forms — living rock creatures called Excalbians. Kirk, Spock, Lincoln and Surak are pitted against the villainous Kahless, Colonel Green, Genghis Kahn and Zora. The purpose is to demonstrate the concepts of good and evil. Kirk refuses to engage in the battle, but the Excalbians threaten the Enterprise with destruction which forces the captain to comply. "Your ship will blow itself to bits within four hours, Captain, unless you defeat the others before then. Is that cause enough to fight for?" - Excalbian	237 EP77.3	The Savage Curtain Stardate 5906.6: The curtain goes up on the Excalbian drama of good vs. evil. Surak is killed while trying to negotiate peace, and Lincoln dies trying to save him. Kirk and Spock are forced to fight the four villains, and successfully defeat them. The Excalbian expresses disappointment with the outcome. He observes that good and evil use the same methods to attain their goals. But Kirk points out that Green and the others fought for personal power, while the captain fought for the lives of his crew. Kirk and Spock are returned to the Enterprise with no further incident. "No one talks peace unless he's ready to back it up with war." - Colonel Green
238 EP78.1	All Our Yesterdays Stardate 5943.7: The Beta Niobe sun is about to go nova. Kirk, Spock and McCoy beam down to Sarpeidon to investigate the mysterious disappearance of the planet's entire population. They find only Atoz, the keeper of a huge library. Mr. Atoz invites them to examine discs containing scenes of the planet's past eras. While doing so, Kirk hears a woman's scream, and rushes out of the library. He finds himself thrown back in history. Spock and McCoy attempt to follow, but are transported into Sarpeidon's ice age. "Witch… witch! They'll burn ye!" - woman to Capt. Kirk	239 EP78.2		All Our Yesterdays Stardate 5943.8: Kirk is in jail, accused of witchcraft. Spock and McCoy are in one of Sarpeidon's ice ages. All have been sent into the planet's past by means of a machine called the atavachron. Spock and McCoy meet Zarabeth, an exile from another era. She is attracted to the Vulcan, and he to her. Spock displays turbulent emotions and violent outbursts, reverting to primitive Vulcan behavior. "This is impossible. I'm a Vulcan." - Mr. Spock "The Vulcan you knew won't exist for another 5,000 years." - Dr. McCoy	240 EP78.3	All Our Yesterdays Stardate 5943.9: Kirk escapes prison and returns to the library with the help of a man who knows about the atavachron. There, he forces Atoz to help him locate Spock and McCoy. Spock does not want to leave Zarabeth, but McCoy cannot come through the time portal without him. Upon their return to the library, Atoz escapes to safety in the past. The Enterprise departs Sarpeidon just as the planet's sun goes nova. "There is no further need to observe me, Doctor. As you see, I have returned to the present… in every sense." - Mr. Spock
241 EP79.1	Turnabout Intruder Stardate 5928.5: The Enterprise arrives at Camus II to aid an archaeological team suffering from radiation exposure. The landing party finds only two survivors — Dr. Janice Lester and Dr. Coleman. Kirk is attacked by Lester and subjected to an alien life-force transfer device. His mind is trapped inside Lester's body. Lester takes over the captain's body, and assumes command of the Enterprise. "Your world of starship captains doesn't admit women. It isn't fair." - Janice Lester "No, it isn't. And you punished and tortured me because of it." - Capt. Kirk	242 EP79.2		Turnabout Intruder Stardate 5928.6: Janice Lester's mind inhabits Kirk's body, but her unstable emotional state arouses suspicion in McCoy and Spock. McCoy runs a physical exam on Kirk, while Spock interviews Lester. A Vulcan mind meld convinces Spock that Kirk's mind is indeed trapped in Lester's body, and he opposes the captain. Kirk orders court-martial proceedings against Spock, the act of which alone creates suspicion and concern among the crew. "You are not Captain Kirk… You do not belong in charge of the Enterprise, and I shall do everything in my power against you." - Mr. Spock	243 EP79.3	Turnabout Intruder Stardate 5928.7: Kirk charges Spock, McCoy, Scotty and Lester with mutiny, and orders them to be executed. Lester's mind inhabits Kirk's body, and the only way to make it permanent is to kill Lester — while Kirk's mind is trapped inside. But the crew refuses to obey Kirk's orders. Spock telepathically helps initiate the reversal of the mind exchange. Lester returns to her own body, and Kirk to his. "I've lost to the captain. l've lost to James Kirk!" - Janice Lester

C111 EP56.4	Spectre of the Gun "The gunfight at the O.K. Corral was always a stirring tale for me, until I was actually transported there with my landing party. And we were cast in the role of the 'bad guys'. Shoot outs and showdowns are fine when they're adventures in the history books, but human civilization has come a long way since those violent times. I'm glad I could prove that to the Melkotians. Now, they believe the hand I extend in peace doesn't have a symbolic six-gun in it." — Captain Kirk	C112 EP56.5		Spectre of the Gun "Past experience has proven to me that telepathic races can be formidable, and such was the case with the Melkotians. Their representation of the 19th century Earth town of Tombstone was crude and distorted, but the setting was secondary to the situation in which they placed us — forced participation in a fatal conflict known as a 'shoot-out'. However, there were flaws in the Melkotian construction, and a logical examination of them provided the means of our escape." — Mr. Spock	P56 EP56.8	Spectre of the Gun CHEKOV Ensign Pavel Chekov spent his first tour of duty aboard the Enterprise as its navigator, and often assisted Mr. Spock at the science station on the bridge. His sense of humor expressed itself in ongoing boasts of Russian achievements, while his youthful good looks made him popular with the ladies. Even though he was an ensign, Chekov frequently accompanied Captain Kirk on landing party missions, which gave him invaluable first-hand knowledge of many alien species.
C113 EP57.4	Elaan of Troyius "For a woman who is the Dohlman of an entire planet, Elaan behaved like a spoiled child. When I told her that her warrior culture should have taught her some discipline, she threw a knife at my back. It was a mistake to let my guard down then, and a mistake when I felt sorry for her when she cried. Her strategy was simple — she knew her tears would give her control over me. She must have thought if you can't beat them, make them join you'. And I almost did. But Elaan's hold on me was broken by another lady — named Enterprise." — Captain Kirk	C114 EP57.5		Elaan of Troyius "From a medical standpoint, the biochemistry of Elasian women's tears was an interesting curiosity. I mean, here was a scientific basis for a good, old-fashioned love potion. Unfortunately, my casual study turned serious when Jim was infected by Elaan. Nurse Chapel and I tested hundreds of chemical combinations trying to find the antidote. And when we finally found something that could work, wouldn't you know that Jim had already found his own cure — the Enterprise. I guess not even Elasian tears could beat that competition." — Dr. McCoy	P57 EP57.8	Elaan of Troyius LORD PETRI As the ambassador of his homeworld, Troyius, Lord Petri was assigned the duty of instructing the Dohlman of Elas in civilized manners. Their two worlds had been at war for many years, but the marriage of the Dolman, Elaan, and the leader of Troyius was to bring peace. Petri's efforts were cut short when Elaan stabbed him, and his task was handed over to Captain Kirk.
C115 EP58.4	The Paradise Syndrome "The moment I stepped onto Miramanee's planet, I knew it was a place where someone could forget all their troubles and live without a care. Bones called it the Tahiti Syndrome, common to over-pressured leader types, like starship captains. Well, I forgot my worries all right — and everything else when I got hit by an alien memory beam inside the obelisk I was investigating. After that, I lead a different life — no command decisions, only day after day of uncomplicated happiness. It may have been temporary, but I'll never forget it." — Captain Kirk	C116 EP58.5		The Paradise Syndrome "Under other circumstances, the extended study I made of the symbols found on the obelisk would have been most stimulating. However, it was imperative at the time to decipher their meaning in order to save a planet from destruction, and to do so while the Enterprise paced the asteroid which was on a collision course with that world. Only when I stopped looking at the hieroglyphs as written language did I recognizes them as musical notes. This was the key necessary to unlock the obelisk and activate its deflector beam." — Mr. Spock	P58 EP58.8	The Paradise Syndrome MIRAMANEE According to the traditions of her tribe, the tribal Priestess always wed the Medicine Chief, and Miramanee was content with her betrothal to Salish — until she beheld Kirok. And even though he was a god, they delighted in one another as a man and a woman. Miramanee loved Kirk's strange inventions of the lamp and irrigation, and was concerned for him when he had the dreams of the lodge in the sky. She stood by him when the others doubted, even though it took her from him.
C117 EP59.4	The Enterprise Incident "Acting on secret Federation orders, I had to pretend I was a madman, play dead, and disguise myself as a Romulan, ears and all. I don't think I've ever been so many things in so short a time. But I was able to keep it all in perspective by focusing on the goal of this mission — to get the Romulan cloaking device. Once that was accomplished and my ship was safely back in Federation space, I could return to being the real me captain of the Enterprise." — Captain Kirk	C118 EP59.5		The Enterprise Incident "It has been said that military secrets are the most fleeting of all, and this was proved during our mission to obtain the Romulan cloaking device. But there are other secrets, other types of knowledge that are best kept inviolate. The Romulan commander and I learned this during the mission as well. Something personal and private passed between us, and will be kept that way. To reveal it would betray no one but ourselves." — Mr. Spock	P59 EP59.8	The Enterprise Incident ROMULAN COMMANDER When the Federation starship Enterprise crossed the Neutral Zone and penetrated Romulan space, the Commander suspected espionage on the part of Captain Kirk and his first officer, Spock. But when she interviewed the Vulcan, something passed between them of an intimate nature that was completely unexpected. She was disappointed, although not surprised, when she learned Spock was involved in the subterfuge to steal the cloaking device. Still, the Commander followed him to the Enterprise, even though she knew she would be taken prisoner.
C119 EP60.4	And the Children Shall Lead "I have faced many threats to the Enterprise before, but not from within myself. While he was under the influence of the Gorgan, Tommy Starnes made me think I was incapable of commanding my own starship. That fear nearly paralyzed me. It became a vicious circle: I was afraid of [losing] command, and the fear froze me, making me unable to command. Only when I forced away that fear was the cycle broken." — Captain Kirk Losing misspelled "loosing" on card	C120 EP60.5		And the Children Shall Lead "The captain made an interesting statement during our discussion of the long-dead civilization on Triacus. Legend held that the 'spirit' of the destroyed marauders would one day rise up again to spread their evil across the galaxy. Captain Kirk observed that most legends have their basis in fact, and postulated that the Gorgan was a proof of that. It could, in fact, be argued that the noncorporeal life form from Triacus was an example of that 'spirit'. It was, indeed, set upon marauding across the planet of Marcos XII at the very least." — Mr. Spock	P60 EP60.8	And the Children Shall Lead GORGAN The Gorgan was a noncorporeal life-form discovered on the planet Triacus by the Starnes Expedition. The entity killed the adult members of the team and held their children under its influence, inducing them to take over control of the Enterprise by using special powers to bring out the crew's worst fears. Captain Kirk defeated the creature by exposing its true nature to the children. They rejected the Gorgan, and it lost its hold on them. GORGAN misspelled "GORGON" on the back of card header
C121 EP61.4	Spock's Brain "The men living on the harsh surface of Sigma Draconis VI called the women living below the 'givers of pain and delight', and I had a chance to experience both those aspects. Apparently, the only way the women knew to control the men they brought down from up above to serve them was by using pain giving devices. But now that the Controller is gone and the women have rejoined the male population on the surface, I'm certain that they'll find that 'delight' works even better." — Captain Kirk	C122 EP61.5		Spock's Brain "The Vulcan brain is an incredible work of nature that no science can hope to duplicate. Yet there was Spock's brain, hooked up to an alien computer system, performing its autonomic functions as if it still had a body. I've accused Spock of being a machine, but this took the cake! And what does he say when I tell him he's a disembodied brain? 'Fascinating.' I might know the physiology of the Vulcan brain, but I don't think I'll ever understand the Vulcan mind." — Dr. McCoy	P61 EP61.8	Spock's Brain KARA Using the knowledge given to her temporarily by the Teacher, Kara traveled to the Enterprise, incapacitated its crew, and removed Spock's brain from his body utilizing advanced surgical techniques. As the leader of the Eymorg population on Sigma Draconis VI, it was her responsibility to procure a new Controller to replace the old one, which had reached the end of its usefulness. Kara resisted the attempts by Captain Kirk to regain Spock's brain, but failed, resulting in her people being forced to relocate to the planet's glaciated surface.
C123 EP62.4	Is There In Truth No Beauty? "One of the last human prejudices we've got to overcome is our belief that what is beautiful is good, and what is ugly is evil. But was the Medusan really so hideous that the merest glimpse of him drove Marvick and Spock mad? Or was it because the corporeal human — or Vulcan — mind simply could not comprehend what it saw? Perhaps Kollos was not ugly at all, but sublimely beautiful instead. There certainly wasn't any evil in him." — Captain Kirk	C124 EP62.5		Is There In Truth No Beauty? "Well, the haggis went into the fire with this one. I'd invited Larry Marvick down to Engineering to have a go at the controls of the Enterprise, what with him having designed the ship and all. 'Twas just a friendly little wager. Who knew the man was completely daft? The next thing you know, he's got the ship careenin' at warp nine, and out across the galactic barrier. We got back right as rain with the help of the Medusan ambassador, but Marvick'll never collect that bottle of Scotch." — Mr. Scott	P62 EP62.8	Is There In Truth No Beauty? DR. MIRANDA JONES Born a telepath on Earth, Dr. Miranda Jones spent four years on Vulcan studying telepathic disciplines, skills that qualified her to attempt the first mind link with a Medusan, their ambassador, Kollos. However, circumstances required Mr. Spock have that honor instead of her, and Dr. Jones' jealousy almost cost the first officer his sanity. Jones later accomplished the mind link with Kollos she had so anticipated, and went with him to the Medusan homeworld.
C125 EP63.4	The Empath "The Vians said they had the power to save the people of only one planet in the Minaran system before its sun went nova. I had no argument with their goal — and did not envy the decision they had to make. It was their methodology I did not, and still cannot, condone. For all their so called good intentions, four people were tortured, and two died. Perhaps the lives of millions were worth the lives of the two scientists, but Linke and Ozaba never had a chance or a choice." — Captain Kirk	C126 EP63.5		The Empath "I have to agree with what Jim said about the Vians — they'd lost the sense of compassion they were trying to instill in Gem. They had the technological power and intellect to save the population of an entire planet, but it was good, old-fashioned human emotion that came through in the end. I'm glad Gem felt that in us, and not just the pain the Vians inflicted." — Dr. McCoy	P63 EP63.8	The Empath GEM An empath from a planet in the Minaran star system, Gem had the ability to take the physical injuries of another person onto herself, then heal the wounds. During a period just before the Minaran sun went nova, Gem was taken from her world by Vians, who involved her in an experiment to see if her people were worthy of being rescued from destruction. Although a mute, Gem proved to the Vians through her actions that she was willing to sacrifice herself for others. She saved the life of Dr. McCoy, as well as her planet's entire population.
C127 EP64.4	The Tholian Web "When the Defiant disappeared into interspace, I thought for a moment that I was going along with it. And in that moment I wondered if I was going to spend eternity wandering the decks of a ghost ship littered with the bodies of a crew that had killed each other. I must admit, the thought disturbed me. But then the Defiant dissolved completely, and I was left in a universe all my own. There was no one else in it, just me. And the prospect of being totally alone like that forever gave me an even bigger chill. Given the choice, I prefer our own, crowded galaxy to that one." — Captain Kirk	C128 EP64.5		The Tholian Web "Now I know Spock and I have radically different ways of seeing things, but us being in this unstable part of space brought out an antagonism toward him I never knew I had. I was hell-bent on blaming Spock for losing Jim on purpose, just so he could ensure himself command of the Enterprise. I don't think I've ever been that tough on him — well, except when he had to leave Jim on Miramanee's planet. Anyway, it turns out my anger wasn't because of anything he did, it was the result of the disassociative effects of the interspace phenomenon. When I finally realized that, and apologized, Spock very calmly quoted Jim and said, 'Forget it, Bones." — Dr. McCoy	P64 EP64.8	The Tholian Web CAPTAIN KIRK Captain James T. Kirk gained a reputation in Starfleet for his bold, and sometimes brash, behavior. When faced with a dilemma or a danger, he attacked it head-on. But as far as Captain Kirk was concerned, the safety of his ship and crew always came first. Sometimes this called for bravado, and sometimes it called for a bluff. Captain James T. Kirk was a master at both.
C129 EP65.4	For the World Is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky "In ancient Earth history, people believed the world was flat. In later times, some thought it was hollow. To those of us today that sounds naive, and even a little crazy. So when I tried to tell Natira that her world was a hollow ball, in the back of my mind I knew I sounded like a madman. No wonder she had a hard time believing me. But it was the truth. Yonada was a giant spaceship, and the Oracle of the People was just a computer. That may sound simple to me or you, but to Natira and her people it was as radical as the first man who said the Earth was round." — Captain Kirk	C130 EP65.5		For the World Is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky "It was the craziest thing. The minute I laid eyes on Natira, I felt something that, frankly, I didn't think I'd experience ever again. And when she looked at me, I'd swear she felt it, too. Now I know I'm a bit of a romantic, so for me to say it was love at first sight probably comes as no surprise. But there it was. And the more I got to know her, the deeper it got. So I can't begin to describe what it took to leave her. I had to spread the knowledge of the cure for xenopolycythemia, and she had to be with her people when they reached their promised world." — Dr. McCoy	P65 EP65.8	For the World Is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky NATIRA As the High Priestess of the people on the asteroid/ship Yonada, Natira acted as their guide and intercessor to the Oracle. It was her responsibility to see that they kept the Laws and knew of the promised world to come. She was the only one permitted to choose her own mate, and when she met Dr. McCoy on his mission to divert Yonada from collision with Daran V, she asked him to marry her. He agreed, but they were not together long. McCoy returned to the Enterprise, and Natira remained on Yonada as it reached its promised world.
C131 EP66.4	Day of the Dove "No matter what the Organians said, I don't think I'll ever be friends with the Klingons — not with the way that energy entity stirred up our inherent hatred and hostilities. All that was already inside of me, and the creature fed on it. The thing fed on all of us. And Kang didn't make it easy to turn the situation around. Even then, his goodwill was temporary. No, we won't be on good terms with the Klingons — not in my lifetime at least." — Captain Kirk	C132 EP66.5		Day of the Dove "I don't know what came over me. One moment, I was with the Captain on the planet, mostly worried about what had happened to the colony there. And then the next minute, there were Klingons all around us and I was very, very angry toward them. All I could think about was how they had killed my brother, Piotr. Now I know that an alien energy creature put that thought in my head. But what I felt was very real." — Mr. Chekov	P66 EP66.8	Day of the Dove KANG A Klingon lives to fight, and Commander Kang was the epitome of that warrior ethic when he met Captain Kirk on Beta XII. He felled Kirk with a single blow, then claimed the Federation starship Enterprise as his own. Later, when battle raged between the Starfleet and Klingon crews, Kang again faced Kirk in combat. But it was a false conflict, staged by an alien energy-entity that fed on their animosities. Kang was willing to put on a face of goodwill to banish the creature, sacrificing a victory over Kirk to win the freedom of his men.
C133 EP67.4	Plato's Stepchildren "For all his glib speeches about Plato and enlightened behavior, Parmen was nothing more than a bully. His telekinetic power was the strongest, so he ruled. And the rest of the Platonians followed his example. Except for Alexander. He was their plaything for centuries, yet when he was given the chance to take Parmen's place, he refused it. Now that's what I call enlightened behavior." — Captain Kirk	C134 EP67.5		Plato's Stepchildren "If there were ever a place that needed a doctor, it was Platonius. The people there were virtually immortal, but highly susceptible to infections. Their leader, Parmen, wanted me to stay — badly. But his methods of persuasion were far too cruel. They really didn't want a physician, they wanted an insurance policy." — Dr. McCoy	P67 EP67.8	Plato's Stepchildren ALEXANDER Among the community of thirty-eight settlers on the planet they named Platonius, Alexander was the only one who did not develop telekinetic powers several months after their arrival on that world. As a result, he became their court buffoon, forced to act out the whims and games of the others. Alexander harbored a deep hatred for the cruel Platonians, and even tried to kill their leader, Parmen. He later left Platonius with Captain Kirk, having helped save the Enterprise landing party from a similar fate.
C135 EP68.4	Wink of an Eye "Normally, I would appreciate a woman who knows what she wants, and goes out and gets it. But Deela wanted my ship and me along with it. I find it's hard to fall for a woman who introduces herself as 'the enemy', even if she does say it with a beautiful smile, and a kiss. Besides, it would never have worked out between us. She simply moved too fast." — Captain Kirk	C136 EP68.5		Wink of an Eye "I found it a fascinating experience to exist in a state of hyper-acceleration. I was able to move about the ship and perform tasks in a fraction of the time necessary under normal conditions. My efficiency was increased a hundred-fold. However, to remain at that metabolic rate risked ultra rapid cellular decay and physiological burn out. Therefore, I cannot recommend that the Scalosian chemical be developed toward that end." — Mr. Spock	P68 EP68.8	Wink of an Eye DEELA The Queen of the few remaining Scalosians, Deela faced a doubtful future. Her race was dying, their bio-chemistry hyper-accelerated and no longer able to reproduce among their own kind. Deela chose Kirk to be her mate and accelerated him to her level, even though she knew he would burn out after a time. She tried to take what little pleasure she could find in her desperate situation, and her genuine attraction to Kirk gave her some measure of joy-while it lasted.
C137 EP69.4	That Which Survives "It's ironic that someone as beautiful as Losira became the instrument of such painful death. Her recorded message in the outpost portrayed her as a strong woman, the commander of a dying colony waiting and hoping for a rescue ship to arrive. How could she know that the computer she set to defend the outpost would use her image to kill what it perceived as invaders? I don't think it's a legacy she would have wanted." — Captain Kirk	C138 EP69.5		That Which Survives "Human intuition is difficult for me to understand, but I do not discount the phenomenon. When Mr. Scott reported that the ship 'felt wrong', I did, indeed, initially interpret it as an emotional reaction to the stress of the current situation. However, Mr. Scott's unique knowledge of the Enterprise made me reconsider his statement. Upon further investigation, his 'feeling' proved to be correct. The ship was out of phase — a fact that could have destroyed us." — Mr. Spock	P69 EP69.8	That Which Survives LOSIRA The commander of a Kalandan outpost, Losira died 10,000 years ago with the rest of the colonists from an organism spawned in the terraforming process that created the colony world. Her final acts were to record a message for any Kalandan who might arrive later, explaining what had happened, and to set the computer's defense program to keep the outpost safe. Unknown to Losira, the computer used her image to protect the station, taking her form to kill intruders by means of cellular disruption.
C139 EP70.4	Let That Be Your Last Battlefield "I don't think I've ever seen such hatred between two sentient beings as I did between Lokai and Bele. And it was made all the more ugly because it was racially motivated. A simple reversal of skin pigmentation was the entire basis of their prejudice. Spock and I never noticed the difference between them, but to Bele and Lokai it was like night and day. It destroyed their civilization, and will likely destroy the last two survivors of Cheron. What a waste." — Captain Kirk	C140 EP70.5		Let That Be Your Last Battlefield "Observing the irrevocably hostile Bele and Lokai of Cheron reminded me of a period in Vulcan's history. At one time, we were a wildly emotional people, passionately committed to opposing points of view with an almost irrational fervor. This led to the near destruction of our world, and only the discipline of logic saved Vulcan from complete destruction. The planet Cheron was not so fortunate." — Mr. Spock	P70 EP70.8	Let That Be Your Last Battlefield BELE It took the Chief Officer of the Commission on Political Traitors 1,000 years to get his man, but Bele of Cheron caught up with, and finally captured, Lokai aboard the Federation starship Enterprise. But Bele's hatred toward Lokai was obvious and intense, and returned by Lokai. Neither could see past their racial differences. In the end, it destroyed their civilization. But Bele could only blame Lokai and his kind for the devastation, while Lokai accused Bele and his people. Sadly, both were right.
C141 EP71.4	Whom Gods Destroy "Captain Garth of Izar was a hero of mine. When I was a cadet at the Academy, his exploits were required reading. He was the finest starship captain Starfleet had ever produced, and was the prototype for all of us who aspired to the position. But when I met him, he was no longer anything like that. He had become a madman with delusions of galactic conquest. Still, even though his mind was warped, it was still brilliant. That simple fact is what kept me from underestimating him." — Captain Kirk	C142 EP71.5		Whom Gods Destroy "As a logical being, I am aware that direct observation is a basis for drawing credible conclusions. In the case of Captain Garth of Izar, this did not always hold true. He had the ability to take on the appearance of other people, including Captain Kirk, which caused temporary uncertainty, However, I employed alternative methods of ascertaining the correct identities of the two captains, and was able to take appropriate action." — Mr. Spock	P71 EP71.8	Whom Gods Destroy MARTA An inmate of the penal asylum on Elba II, Marta fancied herself a poet and was fond of quoting Poe and Shakespeare. She was a native of Orion and skilled in the seductive dances for which the women are famed. While at the asylum, Marta was involved in an escape strategy led by Garth of Izar. She was his consort for a time, when he believed himself to be Lord Garth, but was killed in his demonstration of an explosive to Captain Kirk.
C143 EP72.4	The Mark of Gideon "I had a weird sense of déjà vu when I found myself completely alone on the Enterprise. The crew had somehow disappeared. But this wasn't like being trapped in interspace. This time I had solid decks under me. And…I felt as though I were being watched. On a deserted ship, I felt observed. And then I caught a glimpse of people — a crowded, condensed mass of people pressing up to the viewing port. Only later did I find out that my eyes weren't playing tricks on me. Gideon was filled to its mountain tops with people." — Captain Kirk Opening quotation mark missing on card	C144 EP72.5		The Mark of Gideon "Although I recognized that Gideon faced an enormous dilemma, as a doctor I have to question their solution. When I cured Odona of Vegan choriomenengitis, I had no idea she would return to Gideon and deliberately spread the disease to her people. Granted, the planet was dangerously overpopulated but, my god, to introduce a deadly virus in hopes of reducing their numbers…! I'm not sure I want to consider myself a party to that." — Dr. McCoy	P72 EP72.8	The Mark of Gideon ODONA A native of the planet Gideon, Odona volunteered to die for her world. She permitted herself to be infected with Vegan choriomeningitis, a fatal disease, in order to inspire others of her overpopulated planet to do the same. Even after she was cured, Odona chose to become the source of the infection for her people, carrying on her mission in a revised role.
C145 EP73.4	The Lights of Zetar "The ten life units we encountered may well have been the last of the Zetarian civilization, but they were a threat to members of my crew — and they killed everyone on Memory Alpha. Self-preservation is a very strong instinct, and the Zetarians had it in abundance. But Mira Romaine had it, too, and I couldn't just stand by and let her identity be taken away from her." — Captain Kirk	C146 EP73.5		The Lights of Zetar "When I nearly lost Mira to those Zetarian banshees, it was worse than anything I'd ever felt before. She was being possessed by them like something out of a Highlands ghost story, but my brave and beautiful lassie drove the devils out. And when she smiled at me in the decompression chamber, I knew we'd won the day." — Mr. Scott	P73 EP73.8	The Lights of Zetar LT. MIRA ROMAINE While aboard the Enterprise on a mission to oversee the transfer of equipment to Memory Alpha, Lt. Mira Romaine developed a romantic relationship with Chief Engineer Scott. It was this attachment that helped her fight off the life-entities from Zetar who invaded her mind in their attempt to live out their lives in her body. Scott's steadfast devotion to her, and Romaine's strong desire to be with him, were crucial in her defense and recovery from the attack.
C147 EP74.4	The Cloud Minders "The cloud city of Stratos may be an architectural and cultural marvel, but it is also a very literal example of the separation of upper and lower class citizens. The privileged Stratos dwellers are lauded as great intellectuals, but they can be very narrow-minded when it comes to the Troglytes. Despite all the beautiful art and sophistication, I can't say I liked what I saw there." — Captain Kirk Opening quotation mark missing on card	C148 EP74.5		The Cloud Minders "Within the society of Stratos, it was appropriate that Droxine was considered a work of art. Hers was a purity of mind and form I had not encountered before. I wondered how it could be maintained had she been aware of the harsh life of the people on the surface. But she had no true knowledge of conditions below the lofty confines of Stratos. To her credit, when that knowledge was presented, she did not shrink from it but, rather, embraced it. She is a true intellectual." — Mr. Spock	P74 EP74.8	The Cloud Minders DROXINE The daughter of the High Adviser of the cloud city Stratos, Droxine lived a privileged and protected life in an extremely stratified society. She was a gifted intellectual in a culture dominant with intellectuals, and the purity of her mind attracted the interest of Mr. Spock. She, too, found the Vulcan fascinating, and spent as much time as she could in deep conversation with him. Droxine's ethereal demeanor was a perfect reflection of the setting in which she lived.
C149 EP75.4	The Way To Eden "I suppose what used to be called a 'generation gap' still exists in our century. The young people who followed Dr. Sevrin wanted to shed the technology — and authority — of civilization and go back to what they thought were the simpler ways of 'the primitives'. A noble goal — but what they didn't know was that their leader was insane. He took them to Eden, all right, but the paradise was poison. Literally." — Captain Kirk	C150 EP75.5		The Way To Eden "I could never resist Irina, not back in the Academy, and not now. When she came aboard the Enterprise with those people, and I heard her voice…. But our paths are different now. Maybe they were different then, too. She always did things the way she wanted to do them, and I followed the rules. I guess we're both still the same." — Mr. Chekov	P75 EP75.8	The Way To Eden DR. SEVRIN Formerly a noted scientist in the fields of acoustics and engineering research, Dr. Sevrin rejected the world of technology that surrounded him and set off in search of the planet Eden. His intense revulsion for technology was tied to the fact that it had infected him with Synthococcus novae. The disease banned him from planets with primitive cultures, including the Eden he sought. And although Dr. Sevrin finally did make his way to Eden, the plant life on the planet was toxic, and killed him.
C151 EP76.4	Requiem for Methuselah "I wish I could remember more about Rayna Kapec. What I do recall is that she was very beautiful, and danced an excellent waltz. Of course, my main concern at the time was getting the ryetalin to stop the epidemic spreading on board the Enterprise, but there was something special about Rayna. I wonder what became of her?" — Captain Kirk	C152 EP76.5		Requiem for Methuselah "The mystery of Mr. Flint was apparent from the moment we first encountered him. His home contained an art collection spanning several centuries, and contained masterworks unknown to the galaxy. This was compounded by the fact that they were executed with modern materials. A fascinating dichotomy. However, the explanation became known when Flint revealed himself to be immortal and the author of those works. It was a privilege to meet the man who was Brahms, Da Vinci, and so many others of significant historical note." — Mr. Spock	P76 EP76.8	Requiem for Methuselah FLINT Originally from Earth, Flint settled on a remote planet to enjoy its solitude. Flint began his life as a soldier in ancient Mesopotamia, and found he could not die. Throughout the centuries, he lived, loved, and moved on, concealing his immortality. Flint claimed to have been Alexander the Great, Leonardo da Vinci, Johannes Brahms, and other famous historical personages. However, when he left Earth's ecosystem, he began to gradually age. Flint promised to devote his remaining years to the betterment of the human condition.
C153 EP77.4	The Savage Curtain "I've always held Abraham Lincoln as one of my personal heroes, a man of immense integrity and strength of character. That being so, I guess I couldn't help but respond to the 'Lincoln' the Excalbians created. They drew him from my mind, so of course he was everything I expected. He may not have been the real thing, but it was still an experience I won't forget." — Captain Kirk	C154 EP77.5		The Savage Curtain "When I first beheld the being I thought to be Surak, the complete unexpectedness of the sight caused me to display emotion. Such a reaction, however, was quite logical. Surak's name and deeds have been revered on Vulcan for centuries. Our civilization is based on his concepts of logic. To see him would produce similar results in any Vulcan. And although I knew, logically, that he was a recreation, the experience nonetheless created an indelible memory in me." — Mr. Spock	P77 EP77.8	The Savage Curtain SURAK Known as the Father of Vulcan philosophy to the people of that planet, Surak was the first to adopt the ways of peace and logic during a period of history when war and barbarism gripped his world, two thousand years ago. Surak led his people away from violent emotions and toward pure logic in the Time of Awakening, and served as an example of what the Vulcan race came to be.
C155 EP78.4	All Our Yesterdays "This was the first time I've ever been accused of being a witch. Sarpeidon had a period in its past similar to 17th-century England on Earth, and I landed right in the middle of it. I was trying to get back to the library when the local authorities arrived and heard me calling out to Bones. Not the best name to be saying in such a superstitious culture. They thought I was talking to spirits. It's a good thing Mr. Spock wasn't with me. He'd have been burned at the stake as my demon familiar." — Captain Kirk	C156 EP78.5		All Our Yesterdays "It is still unclear to me how, traveling 5,000 years into Sarpeidon's past. I reverted to the barbaric behavior patterns of Vulcans of that time. It is not logical. However, the fact remains that it did happen. Primitive emotions of rage and jealousy consumed me. Now I understand, first hand, how close my race came to extinction. And now, as then, only the discipline of logic is the answer." — Mr. Spock	P78 EP78.8	All Our Yesterdays ZARABETH During the rule of Zor Khan on the planet Sarpeidon, two of Zarabeth's kinsmen mounted an assassination attempt on him. It failed, and as a result Zarabeth was caught in the net of his retribution. She was sent almost 5,000 years into the planet's past, into a glacial ice age, by means of the atavachron. Here, she was forced to live in total isolation, without company, and without hope of ever returning to her own time.
C157 EP79.4	Turnabout Intruder "When I first woke up in Janice Lester's body, I thought I was having a bad dream. Then, I remembered what had happened, what she'd done to us. She hadn't changed since our Academy days — she still wanted to command a starship. My starship. But it takes more to do that than steal the body of its captain. That was Janice's ultimate failure." — Captain Kirk	C158 EP79.5		Turnabout Intruder "The change in Captain Kirk's behavior following his return from Camus I was evident, yet could not be medically explained. There were no physical aberrations. Logic did not agree with Dr. Lester's statements that James Kirk was not in command of the Enterprise. However, as I have so often observed, the human mind is not logical. A mind meld with Lester convinced me that her claim had validity. And later events proved it." — Mr. Spock	P79 EP79.8	Turnabout Intruder DR. JANICE LESTER Captain James Kirk and Dr. Janice Lester shared a romantic involvement during their days in Starfleet Academy, but even then Janice resented what she perceived was a prohibition against women being starship captains. She took out her bitterness on Kirk, which led to the end of their relationship. Years later, Dr. Lester stole Kirk's body and command of the Enterprise from him, still harboring her hatred and jealousy from the past. But those emotions betrayed her, revealing her crime.

B111 EP56.6	Spectre of the Gun with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Originally entitled 'The Last Gunfight,' the script was written by writer-producer Gene Coon who had left Star Trek midway through its second season. Due to his contractual arrangement at another studio, we had to use his pseudonym 'Lee Cronin' for this episode. Some 'Cronin/Coon' story ideas that never made it out of the starting gate were: 'Japan Triumphant' - a fascinating concept - and 'One Million, B.C.' - which to me conjures up a vision of grand adventure for the viewer but total bankruptcy for the studio."	B112 EP56.7		Spectre of the Gun with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "This was the first episode filmed in the third season. Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Scotty, and Chekov turned into little boys when they strapped on guns and holsters to play their roles. Making the saloon and town surreal was done for budgetary reasons. The stylized set worked as an illusion pulled from Kirk's mind (an old western buff) by the telepathic Melkots. This was to be an execution of Kirk and his officers (at the OK Corral) for not heeding the warning to turn back when the Enterprise was entering Melkotian space. The shootout scene complete with bullet-hits peppering the prop fence behind Kirk and crew, was done in one take."	G56 EP56.9	Spectre of the Gun CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott Nichelle Nichols as Lt. Uhura Walter Koenig as Ensign Chekov Bonnie Beecher as Sylvia Sam Gilman as Doc Holliday Rex Holman as Morgan Earp Ron [Soble] as Wyatt Earp Charles Maxwell as Virgil Earp Bill Zuckert as Johnny Behan Charles Seel as Ed Ron Soble misspelled "Solbe" on card
B113 EP57.6	Elaan of Troyius with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "My first draft teleplay memo asked: 'Why do we need warp speed in order to fight the Klingon vessel? Wouldn't it be more to the point to have…our phasers and photon torpedos inoperable due to damage that we have sustained? I think it makes it even more gripping for the audience to know that all the Enterprise can do is to maneuver clumsily at sub-light speeds and not be able to do anything more than to attempt to keep its shields up' My suggestion was quickly approved."	B114 EP57.7		Elaan of Troyius with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "It was the moming of Wednesday, June 5, 1968 when I walked into the makeup room to confim France Nuyen (Elaan) had made her early makeup call. With brief hellos to France and makeup man, Fred Phillips, my rambling banter ended with the events of last night. They had no idea what I was talking about. She and Fred had gone to bed early the previous night and didn't hear the news. When I explained that presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy was shot during an assassination attempt, France leaped up, out of her makeup chair cursing and shouting. Fred and I just looked on, making no attempt to contain her. France and her then husband actor Robert Culp (I Spy) were Democrals and very active in civil rights activity at that time."

B115 EP58.6	The Paradise Syndrome with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Despite third season budget strictures that ordinarily prevented costly location filming, the physical requirements of this script necessitated our 'going outside.' The story required that both the primitive Indian village and the adjacent mysterious obelisk be situated by the shores of a lake - and lakes are few and far between in Southern California, But, we didn't have very far to go because the 'lake' was actually a local reservoir with a surrounding group of large evergreen trees located in nearby Franklin Canyon, only thirty thrifty minutes from the studio."	B116 EP58.7		The Paradise Syndrome with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "This episode, called 'The Paleface' when we were shooting it, was a welcome opportunity for the crew to go off the studio lot for 3 days of local location exteriors. The crew, composed mostly of men who had worked in the industry since the '40s, were largely unanimous in a certain conclusion. That was that Sabrina Scharf (Miramanee) had the most beautiful pair of legs that most of us had ever seen, Sabrina's William Theiss-created Indian outfit was very revealing of her gorgeous legs, and she carried herself in a manner that crew eyes were always trained on her. Incidentally, she gave an outstanding acting performance and was very pleasant to work with."	G58 EP58.9	The Paradise Syndrome CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott George Takei as Lt. Sulu Walter Koenig as Ensign Chekov Majel Barrett as Nurse Chapel Sabrina Scharf as Miramanee Rudy Solari as Salish Richard Hale as Goro Peter Virgo, Jr. as Lumo
B117 EP59.6	The Enterprise Incident with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Ears for everyone! The original story title was, get ready for this: 'Ears.' What with Spock, a shipload of pointy-eared Romulans and their female commander - plus Kirk and McCoy similarly outfitted - the thought of a horde of actors running about with ear jobs resulted in some gleeful insanity. I suggested gluing ears on such celebrity guest stars as Marion Brando, John Wayne, Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Jack Paar and Johnny Carson. However, I nixed our president because: 'Lyndon Baines Johnson already has ears, so let's pass over him.'"	B118 EP59.7		The Enterprise Incident Charles Washburn "Bill Shatner (Kirk) was at his acting best. In this episode, Kirk was required to convince the Enterprise crew that he was in a overworked and confused state as he takes the Enterprise into Romulan space. The Federation starship was immediately surrounded by three Romulan ships which demanded Kirk's surrender. Kirk, Spock, and McCoy beamed aboard the Romulan flagship and played out a hoax to gain possession of the Romulan Cloaking Device. Later, disguised as a Romulan, Kirk (Shafner) gave this episode one of his finest overall performances."	G59 EP59.9	The Enterprise Incident CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott George Takei as Lt.

B119 EP60.6	And the Children Shall Lead with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Due to an unfortunate bit of 'stunt casting.' famed San Francisco criminal defense attorney Melvin Belli was hired to play the guest-starring role of the powerful alien entity, [Gorgan]. Much to our dismay, we discovered that Belli not only had difficulty speaking his lines, his characterization was something less than convincing. This so-called 'silver tongued' court veteran simply froze up in front of the camera. By the time the production wrapped, our sad consensus was that he should have stuck to his day job." Gorgan misspelled "Gorgon" on the card	B120 EP60.7		And the Children Shall Lead with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "We employed a number of child actors in this episode, including Melvin Belli's ([Gorgan]) son Caesar (Steve); Craig Hundley (Tommy), who also played Capt. Kirk's nephew Peter in 'Operation: Annihilate:' and Pamelyn Ferdin (Mary), who was one of the most prolific child actors of the '60s and '70s."

B121 EP61.6	Spock's Brain with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "The premise was a lulu: Spock's brain gets kidnapped - or rather, 'brain-napped.' With an empty noggin, his lights are on but nobody's home so McCoy performs surgery to reinstall the missing part. I thought the 'Lee Cronin' (actually Gene Coon) story needed another twist so, in my March 11, 1968 story memo, I suggested '…it might be a fascinating concept to have Mr. Spock's brain helping to direct Dr. McCoy during the various phases of the brain operation.' We did just that but it didn't help. The episode was still a dog."	B122 EP61.7		Spock's Brain with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "Some of us have the memory of the old country doctor pulling up to our house in his black sedan, white hair blowing in the wind, and carrying a black bag containing his medical supplies. Dr. McCoy (DeForest Kelly) often referred to himself as an old country doctor. One had to suspend reality to believe the operation of restoring Spock's brain. De (DeForest Kelly) was very believable when the camera was rolling. Between takes, he and Leonard (Nimoy) led many jokes about what they were doing, and Spock's hair remaining in place." DeForest Kelley spelled "Kelly" twice on the card	G61 EP61.9	Spock's Brain CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr.

B123 EP62.6	Is There In Truth No Beauty? with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Jean Lisette Aroeste, who authored this episode, was another female writer whom I 'discovered.' Her original story, then called 'Miranda,' was named after the character portrayed by my favorite guest star, Diana Mudaur, who had previously appeared in the second season's 'Return lo Tomorrow.' Another favorite of mine was Ralph Senensky, whose skilled direction complemented this sensitive tale. Yet another favorite was George Duning, the Academy Award-winning composer, whose evocative score perfectly suited this show and other emotionally-charged episodes such as 'Metamorphosis,' 'All Our Yesterdays' and 'The Empath.'"	B124 EP62.7		Is There In Truth No Beauty? with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "This episode was wrought with problems, causing it to go a day over schedule. Seven days instead of six. It started with three pages of notes on the script by Paramount's Research Department. It continued with a major script change the first day of shooting followed by a long discussion between the director, the producers, and the actors. Despite the early script problems, the result was one of our better episodes."	G62 EP62.9	Is There In Truth No Beauty? CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott George Takei as Lt. Sulu Nichelle Nichols as Lt.

B125 EP63.6	The Empath with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "During third season pre-production, I reviewed all 'outside' submissions. Enthused by Joyce Muskat's 'spec' script, 'The Answerer,' I wrote to Gene Roddenberry: 'I have read this teleplay. I suggest you read it without delay. It has a wild premise and a super plot. Good characterizations and conflict. Good dialogue. And almost sufficient action to sustain it. I don't want to take the edge off the story by describing it to you. I think you will agree with me after reading it.' Gene did agree and her script was filmed as 'The Empath.'"	B126 EP63.7		The Empath with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "'The Empath' found the Star Trek crew moving to a stage on the Paramount side of the lot and a set (Gem's Arena) which had black walls and a black floor. Since a black floor shows footprints, not only were propmen standing by with mops, but we made this a 'no visitors' set. A well-dressed gentleman casually walked on the set to observe. I let him know it was a closed set and asked him to leave. He obliged, but I later learned that he was Charles Bluhdorn, head of Gulf & Western, who had recently bought Paramount." "Kathryn Hays (Gem, the empath) gave an extraordinary performance. Her gestures and facial expressions added life and beauty to her character. Cinematographer Jerry Finnerman fell in love with Kathy Hays' face during the filming, and used care and his best techniques in lighting her close-ups."	G63 EP63.9	The Empath CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott Kathryn Hays as Gem Willard Sage as Thann Alan Bergmann as Lal [Davis] Roberts as Dr. Ozaba Jason Wingreen as Dr. Linke Davis Roberts misspelled "David" on the card
B127 EP64.6	The Tholian Web with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "We worked closely with optical special effects wizard Frank Vanderveer to create the difficult visual that showed a tiny Enterprise trapped in space facing the huge web spun by the Tholians. My main worry? 'The web can't possibly take up the whole universe, guys. If it's in their way, WHY DON'T THEY JUST FLY AROUND IT?' My logic fell upon deaf ears for a very practical reason: If the ship could fly around it, the premise would fall apart and we'd have no show to film."	B128 EP64.7		The Tholian Web with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "This episode had many elements that thrilled our fans. 'The Tholian Web' was a special photographic effects treasure, with great miniature photography, animation effects, creative lighting, and optics. And, it won an Emmy nomination for Special Photographic Effects. The show had a number of behind-the-scenes changes and difficulties. We experienced a director change as Ralph Senensky was replaced by Herb Wallerstein after three days. There were wardrobe incompletions and difficulties with the zippers. Boom Man Bob Kyte and Craft Serviceman Bob Brian left the set with physical ailments. Set Painter Cliff Liburdi cut his arm on a set piece, and DeForest [Kelley] complained of an eye infection. Still the show was terrific! DeForest Kelly misspelled "Kelly" on the card	G64 EP64.9	The Tholian Web CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott Nichelle Nichols as Lt. Uhura Walter Koenig as Ensign Chekov Sean Morgan as Lt. O'Neil Barbara Babcock as voice of Tholians
B129 EP65.6	For the World Is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Writer Ric Vollaerts provided us with a fascinating premise: that people are unknowingly living on an asteroid world within a world which is actually a giant space ship. But, tongue in cheek, I claimed he offered us an even more unusual premise which was that, for once, McCoy rather than Kirk got a chance to kiss the girl. Other than that, I asserted this episode's main claim to fame was that it set the all-time record for the longest title in all three seasons of the show."	B130 EP65.7		For the World Is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "Our crew certainly fell in love with the beautiful and talented Kate Woodville (Natira). She had a constant smile, a terrific English accent, exceptional manners, and much more. I thought William Ware Theiss' costumes were especially flattering to her." "It was great to see DeForest Kelley (Dr. McCoy) 'get the girl' in this episode since it was usually Bill Shatner (Capt. Kirk) who took the honors. Kelley really showed off his terrific acting range."	G65 EP65.9	For the World Is Hollow and I Have Touched The Sky CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott Kate Woodville as Natira Byron Morrow as Admiral [Westervliet] Admiral Westervliet misspelled "Westervilet" on card Sulu, Chekov and Uhura missing from the list
B131 EP66.6	Day of the Dove with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "My April 1, 1968 story memo advised we 'not establish that there are some Klingons who want to negotiate lasting peace. There might be some who can determine that, in this instance, discretion would be the better part of valor - but let us never set up a situation whereby \|Klingons\| ever be anything but highly agressive and self-seeking opponents.' In retrospect it was 'April fool' for me because, 18 years later, I persuaded Gene Roddenberry to have a Klingon serve aboard the Enterprise now that 'peace had broken out' between the Klingons and us."	B132 EP66.7		Day of the Dove with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "The most exciting time for me in working on this episode was the 4th & 5th days of shooting. A ton of stuntmen were brought in for the swordfighting sequence between the Klingons and the Enterprise crew. I had worked with many of the stuntmen before. Notably, Hubie Kerns and Victor Paul, stunt doubles for TV's 'Batman & Robin.' But, I was most excited about working with and meeting David Sharpe. I learned he had doubled many of my serial heroes during the '40s (Captain Marvel, Dick Tracy, etc.). Davey, held in the highest esteem by the stuntmen of that time, was a superb athlete. Though relatively short, he doubled tall leads, and specialized in tumbling and spectacular leaps and somersaults. When the cameras rolled, along with the stuntmen, I, too, was like a kid again."	G66 EP66.9	Day of the Dove CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott George Takei as Lt. Sulu Nichelle Nichols as Lt. Uhura Walter Koenig as Ensign Chekov Michael Ansara as Kang Susan Howard as Mara David L. Ross as Lt. Johnson
B133 EP67.6	Plato's Stepchildren with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Yes, there was discussion with NBC about how to handle that now-famous interracial kiss between Kirk and Uhura - so much discussion, in fact, that we grudgingly agreed to film two versions. My recollection is that, after screening both takes, we favored the steamier one in which Kirk and Uhura really do kiss but NBC preferred the alternate version that had no full bore lip-to-lip contact. What I disgustedly called the 'non-kiss' is the version that was broad-cast. You should have seen the one that got away."	B134 EP67.6		Plato's Stepchildren with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "When you work on a television series each week and meet the best aclors in Hollywood, some of them leave a lasting impression. On 'Plato's Stepchildren,' Michael Dunn (the dwarfed jester Alexander) was a real pleasure to meet and talk with off the set. One day after lunch was declared, I was leisurely walking outside the stage and spotted Michael near his car. Peering in, I saw that his car's controls were extended to accommodate his height. He talked about how the extensions were done and how convenient the car was to operate. He really was a remarkable man. Many fans may remember him best for his role on the '60s TV show 'The Wild, Wild West,' in which he played the evil Dr. Loveless."	G67 EP67.9	Plato's Stepchildren CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy Nichelle Nichols as Lt. Uhura Majel Barrett as Nurse Chapel Michael Dunn as Alexander Liam Sullivan as Parmen Barbara Babcock as Philana Ted Scott as Eraclitus Derek Partridge as Dionyd Scotty missing from the list
B135 EP68.6	Wink of an Eye with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Poor Captain Kirk! Because all the male Scalosians are sterile, he's chosen to help repopulate the planet. Our noble captain, nothing loath, valiantly attempts to help solve the problem beginning with the beauteous queen Deela. After all, what's a captain to do? It's a tough job but somebody's gotta do it." "Arthur Heinemann, who also had a hand in writing the 'Savage Curtain' as well as 'The Way To Eden,' authored this teleplay based upon yet another story by the prolific but never-seen Lee Cronin, better known as Gene Coon."	B136 EP68.7		Wink of an Eye with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "William Shatner (Kirk) likes a joke and making people laugh as well as anyone. While lighting his close-up after lunch in Kirk's Quarters, a fly was incessantly buzzing around the set. Whether the smell of fresh paint or someone's discarded lunch was the attraction was not known. Assislant Propman Al Jacoby sprayed and swatted to no avail. When Bill stood on his mark and the fly buzzed around him, he did a sweep of his hand and held a tight fist, betting nearby crew members that he caught the fly. No takers. The fly was gone. Bill opened his fist. No fly. He laughed. In a 'wink of an eye,' the fly was gone and didn't return."	G68 EP68.9	Wink of an Eye CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott George Takei as Lt. Sulu Nichelle Nichols as Lt. Uhura Walter Koenig as Ensign Chekov Kathie Brown as Deela Geoffrey Binney as Crewman Compton Eric Holland as Ekor Jason Evers as Rael
B137 EP69.6	That Which Survives with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Needing a different kind of materialization, I suggested that the beautiful but murderous Losira (played by former Miss America Lee Meriwether) beam in as a vertical thin line that then expands horizontally. I'm unsure how I got the idea but perhaps, subconsciously, I drew upon my familiarity with 'The Outer Limits' main title, a show upon which I had worked." "Even the talented Dorothy Fontana sometimes took literary refuge. Using the pseudonym, Michael Richards, she was credited with writing the story upon which John Meredyth Lucas based this teleplay."	B138 EP69.7		That Which Survives with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "Miss America, a killing machine? Say it ain't so! But, it was. Lee Meriwether, this episode's guest star, was crowned Miss America, and her beauty and superb acting talent landed her many roles in some of Hollywood's memorable TV series. Meriwether, behind the scenes, was looked upon with respect and reverence by the crew. It surely was her smile and the regal way she carried herself. She continued to be a most worthy Miss America."	G69 EP69.9	That Which Survives CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott George Takei as Lt. Sulu Nichelle Nichols as It. Uhura Lee Meriwether as Losira Naomi Pollack as Lt. Rahda Arthur Batanides as Lt. D'Amato Brad Forrest as Ensign Wyatt Kenneth Washington as John B. Watkins Booker [Bradshaw] as Dr. M'Benga Booker Bradshaw misnamed as Booker "Marshall" on the card
B139 EP70.6	Let That Be Your Last Battlefield with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "He's ba-a-ack! Gene Coon resurfaced as his alter ego, 'Lee Cronin,' to write this story, originally titled 'Down From Heaven,' upon which Oliver Crawford's teleplay was based. And again, he came up with an engrossing premise. Comedian and impressionist Frank Gorshin, in a brilliant performance as the intolerant Bele, together with actor Lou Antonio as Lokai, brought home to the viewer the folly of mindless prejudice. Who can ever forget Gorshin indignantly exclaiming and complaining and explaining, 'But Lokai's white on the right side!?"	B140 EP70.7		Let That Be Your Last Battlefield with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "Working with both Lou Antonio (Lokai) and Frank Gorshin (Bele) was a real treat. Both were great professionals and helped make this episode into something quite memorable. I would later work with Lou when he became a director. Frank, of course, had already established himself as a prominent Hollywood figure and entertainer, and continues to perform around the country. Perhaps his most famous TV role of all was The Riddler in the '60s 'Batman' show starring Adam West."	G70 EP70.9	Let That Be Your Last Battlefield CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott Nichelle Nichols as Lt. Uhura Lou Antonio as Lokai Frank Gorshin as Bele
B141 EP71.6	Whom Gods Destroy with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "My first draft teleplay memo suggested that 'we might toy with the idea of playing Garth, the master criminal, as a woman. In this way, Captain Kirk would have not only a maddeningly brilliant opponent, but one who is also dangerous in an entirely different way.' I believed that a female could bring added dimension to the role and, as a brilliant former starship captain, demonstrate that women would have a much more important place in future society. I believed it but nobody else did. Garth remained male."	B142 EP71.7		Whom Gods Destroy with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "This episode featured a number of terrific guest actors, including Steve Ihnat (Garth), Yvonne Craig (Marta) and Key Luke (Governor Cory). Craig, who played the recurring role of Batgirl on the '60s TV show 'Batman', certainly portrayed one of the more memorable aliens on 'Star Trek' in this episode as the green-skinned and shapely Marta. I remembered Luke most from his role as 'Number One Son' in the old Charlie Chan movies, but he also played the role of Master Po in the '70s 'Kung Fu' TV series." Keye Luke misspelled "Key" Luke on the card	G71 EP71.9	Whom Gods Destroy CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott Steve Ihnat as Garth of Izar Yvonne Craig as Marta Keye Luke as Donald Cory Richard Geary as Andorian Gary Downey as Tellarite Sulu and Uhura missing from the list
B143 EP72.6	The Mark of Gideon with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Veteran comedic actor Stanley Adams, who co-authored this episode with his writing partner, George Slavin, is better known to Star Trek fans for his amusing portrayal of space trader and tribble merchant Cyrano Jones in the second season's lighthearted tale 'The Trouble With Tribbles,' written by David Gerrold. And, actor Gene Dynarski, who played love-starved bachelor miner Ben Childress in the first season's classic 'Mudd's Women,' appeared in this episode as planet Gideon council member Krodak."	B144 EP72.7		The Mark of Gideon with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "Director Jud Taylor returned for a fourth stint this third season. A former actor, a tall-in-the-saddle, bully-proof type of guy, he seemed to handle Bill Shatner's many suggestions with aplomb. I was in admiration of the way he carried himself, gave explanations and information to all who asked, and doled out an occasional wry smile just to settle those who thought him a bit starchy. Years later, I served as 1st AD for Jud on an Andy Griffith TV movie. We clicked well and brought it in under budget, under schedule."	G72 EP72.9	The Mark of Gideon CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy Sharon Acker as Odona David Hurst as Hodin Gene Dynarski as Krodak Richard Derr as Admiral Fitzgerald Scott, Sulu and Uhura missing from the list
B145 EP73.6	The Lights of Zetar with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Ubiquitous as well as talented, actress Barbara Babcock provided the Zetar 'voice-overs' for this episode as well as a host of other off-stage Star Trek characters; Trelane's mom in 'The Squire of Gothos'; Commander Loskene and the other Tholians in 'The Tholian Web'; the Eminiar computer in 'A Taste of Armageddon'; Isis, the cat, and the Exceiver computer in 'Assignment: Earth'; and even an Enterprise computer voice in 'Day of the Dove,' a task which was ordinarily performed by Majel Barrett."	B146 EP73.7		The Lights of Zetar with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "I silently delighted in any script that found Scotty panting after a woman. He deserved to express his romantic inclinations. Why must Kirk get all the kisses and…other amoral activity?? Throw Scotty a bone!! In 'Who mourns for [Adonais?],' Scotty actively pursued Leslie Parrish's character Lt. Carolyn Palamas. In 'Wolf in the Fold,' he had a short-lived fascination with the beautiful dancer, Kara. In this episode, Lt. Mira Romaine was the object of Scotty's affection. Seemed awkward and (Spock's word) 'fascinating' to see Scotty try to rise above his love of his engines." Adonais misspelled "Adonis" on the card	G73 EP73.9	The Lights of Zetar CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott Nichelle Nichols as Lt. Uhura Jan Shutan as Lt. Mira Romaine John Winston as Lt. Kyle Sulu, Chekov and Chapel missing from the list
B147 EP74.6	The Cloud Minders with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "My script memo complained: 'I think it's well and good to take Chekov along on this mission, but I sorely miss Dr. McCoy. Is there any way to get more of him into the show and…to make Spock less a wooden figure and more of an important character? We are faced here with a familiar problem. It seems…easy enough to get our Captain involved with new people, but it always seems to be like pulling teeth to involve anybody else.' The results? McCoy's and Spock's roles were amplified and Chekov's was deep-sixed."	B148 EP74.7		The Cloud Minders with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "Costume designer William Ware Theiss did himself proud in the creation of Diana Ewing's (Droxine) exquisite and revealing gown. This episode found Spock extremely attracted to Droxine-and this wasn't euen mating season for the Vulcan. One of Droxine's closeups was to have a continuing, lustful look at Spock. Very erotic. When the look wasn't quite there, Leonard Nimoy (Spock) whispered something to her. Though I was near the camera, I couldn't hear Leonard. Judging by her diabolic smile, I suspected he talked dirty, giving her something to think about during her closeup which should help her looks to Spock. It did. She seemed thankful to Leonard for the assist."	G74 EP74.9	The Cloud Minders CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott Diana Ewing as Droxine Charlene Polite as Vanna Fred Williamson as Anka [Ed Long] as Midro Jeff Corey as Plasus Ed Long miscredited as "Henry Evans" on the card Sulu and Chekov missing from the list
B149 EP75.6	The Way To Eden with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Actor Skip Homeier, this episode's villain, played another villain for us in the second season's 'Patterns of Force' when he was cast in the role of Nazi all-around bad guy, Deputy Führer Melakon. He didn't get to wear a Nazi Storm Trooper's uniform in this episode, 'The Way to Eden,' but he did wear something much more memorable, namely the biggest, baddest, mest humongous ear job of all time until the Ferengis of Star Trek: The Next Generation came along."	B150 EP75.7		The Way To Eden with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "'Space Hippies' take me back to the 60s. In this episode, we all enjoyed the band of hippie musicians the script required. Certainly Spock's contribution to the jam session. If only Leonard (Nimoy) were an accomplished musician, he might have been a smash hit in the '60s' coffeehouses of America. I recall Leonard singing softly to himself as he brushed past me and headed for his makeup chair. The song on his lips was 'Would you like to ride in my beautiful balloon…' He seemed to know all the words, but didn't want to be obtrusive, or cause attention to himself. Throughout my two years on the series, I admired Leonard's discipline, and the high acting standard he always presented."	G75 EP75.9	The Way To Eden CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt Comdr. Scott George Takei as Lt. Sulu Nichelle Nichols as Lt. Uhura Walter Koenig as Ensign Chekov Skip Homeier as Dr. Sevrin Mary-Linda Rapelye as [Irina] Galliulin Victor Brandt as Tongo Rad Charles Napier as Adam Deborah Downey as Mavig Elizabeth Rogers as Lt. Palmer Irina Galliuln misspelled "Irini" on card Nichelle Nichols is on the list despite not appearing in this episode
B151 EP76.6	Requiem for Methuselah with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Sci-fi author Jerome Bixby, who also wrote 'Mirror, Mirror,' 'By Any Other Name' and 'Day Of The Dove,' submitted this original, 'unsolicited' story. In my August 20, 1968 story memo, I remarked that 'The intriguing thing to me…is the fact that Jerry has created a man or an entity who, in turn can create original life. That concept is, and has been, one of the most fascinating ideas to the mind of man since time immemorial.' Today, cloning is much in the news; I guess life really does imitate art."	B152 EP76.7		Requiem for Methuselah with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "For those of us who love the arts, 'Requiem for Methuselah' was probably one of the most interesting and beaufiful of the STAR TREK episodes. A mansion filled with priceless art treasures… What a delight to imagine! As Spock observed of the paintings: 'They are unknown works of the artists. All are indescribably authentic-to the last brushstroke…they are worth not millions, but billions. If being plopped down in such a treasure-filled place doesn't tweek your fantasy for beholding unknown works of art from the world's best known artists, then I won't expect you to be in line when the next space flight leaves for the distant stars."	G76 EP76.9	Requiem for Methuselah CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Daly as Flint Louise Sorel as Rayna Kapec Uhura is missing from the list
B153 EP77.6	The Savage Curtain with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Yarnek, the glutinously gloppy-looking rock creature was built and portrayed by stuntman and creature inventor Janos Prohaska, who also performed inside such other of his Star Trek creations as the mother Horta in 'Devil in the Dark' and the poisonous white-haired Mugato in 'A Private Little War.' Janos also invented and inhabited the giant bird creature seen in the Talosians' zoo and the ape-like beast (an illusion created by the Talosian 'Keeper') that Captain Pike vanquished in 'The Menagerie.'"	B154 EP77.7		The Savage Curtain with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "This script was more a morality play than an action episode. Kirk, Spock, Abe Lincoln, and the Vulcan, Surak, fought for 'good.' Since Lincoln, we've read, died of an assassin's bullet, he just might have been mad enough to put up a great fight. As we were winding down the final year of STAR TREK, this episode didn't produce a lot of enthusiasm from the main cast. We had done stories on combat contests before. I remember thinking: 'Anybody for cowboys and indians? But, in that reality, it would have taken too many story conferences to figure out who was good and who was evil. We didn't have the time."	G77 EP77.9	The Savage Curtain CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott George Takei as Lt. Sulu Nichelle Nichols as Lt. Uhura Walter Koenig as Ensign Chekov Janos Prohaska (voice of Bart La Rue) as Yarnek Phillip Pine as Col.

Dickerson Lee Bergere misspelled "Berger"
B155 EP78.6	All Our Yesterdays with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Spock in love! The enigmatic Vulcan gives vent to his long-hidden emotions, laughs joyously, makes love passionately - and, fights fiercely with Dr. McCoy. This gripping episode demonstrates what can happen when a fine director, Marvin Chomsky, and fine actors come to grips with fine writing. Jean Lisette Aroeste's evocative script had a fascinating premise and great conflict as well as providing terrific roles for Bill Shafner, Leonard Nimoy, DeForest Kelley and lovely and talenfed guest star Mariette Hartley, not to mention everyone else in this show's cast."	B156 EP78.7		All Our Yesterdays with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "Kirk, Spock, and McCoy beam down to a planet whose sun will explode in 3 hours. They materialize in the center of a library-a fairly large room subdivided by shelving and storage cabinets into several areas. The librarian, a Mr. Atoz, appears in every section the boys walk. These are replicas. Maybe it was budgetary reasons we made Atoz (like 'A' to 'Z') replicas. After all, this was episode #78. If the show had been done earlier, Atoz might have had two library workers. A guy who could have been called 'Dewey Decimal,' and a girl we might have called 'Cata Logg.' Ah-h, 'tis prudent to heed…your budget's need."	G78 EP78.9	All Our Yesterdays CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott Mariette Hartley as Zarabeth Ian Wolfe as Mr. Atoz
B157 EP79.6	Turnabout Intruder with BOB JUSTMAN, associate producer "Everything seemed to go wrong with this final episode of the series. Even the regular cast, who had to know by then that this was Star Trek's swan song, seemed embarrassed by some rather inept dialogue and situations, but they soldiered on. Luckily, Bill Shatner revelling in his role reversal portrayal, pulled out all the stops and 'saved' this show from becoming a total bust. Nevertheless, in my humble opinion, 'Turnabout Intruder' takes the honors for the all-time worst episode eclipsing even 'Spock's Brain.'"	B158 EP79.7		Turnabout Intruder with CHARLES WASHBURN, 2nd asst. director "In this last episode of the STAR TREK series, Bill Shatner puts an exclamation point on the fact that he is one of this country's finest actors. In 'Turnabout Intruder,' it was a pleasure to watch Bill interject so many female mannerisms in his performance-some blatant, some ever so subtle. Here's hoping Bill Shatner someday puts a punctuation mark on a grand scale performance that generations from now he'll be hailed for the high level he perfected his craft."	G79 EP79.9	Turnabout Intruder CAST William Shatner as Captain Kirk Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy James Doohan as Lt. Comdr. Scott George Takei as Lt.
