THE CAGE
I accompanied Captain Pike to the surface of Talos IV, where we found that the crash survivors who had hailed us were an illusion. The Talosians captured the captain and planned to use him to repopulate the surface of their world. All our attempts to rescue him oroved fruitless: the Talosians' mental powers were simply too great. When they also abducted Number One and Yeoman Colt, the safety of the remaining crew compelled me to order the Enterprise's departure. The Talosians stopped us, however, and returned all three captives, having decided that humans did not suit their needs after all. — Spock |

WHERE NO MAN HAS GONE BEFORE
The Enterprise's encounter with the galactic energy barrier gave Gary Mitchell extraordinary psionic powers. We became useless to him, an annoyance. In a month, he would have as much in common with us as we would have with a ship full of white mice. Realizing we would never reach an Earth outpost with Mitchell on board, I urged Captain Kirk to abandon him on Delta Vega while we still had time. Doctor Dehner believed that Mitchell was not dangerous, but her prognosis was rooted in emotion. Mine was based on logic. Ultimately Captain Kirk was forced to kill his friend. — Spock |

THE CORBOMITE MANEUVER
I found our interaction with the Fesarius and its mercurial commander, Balok, a fascinating experience. Crewman Bailey, however, was unnerved. He blamed his adrenal gland - a most inconvenient organ - for an emotional outburst. Balok was sophisticated in his methods as he shut down many of the Enterprise's systems. Indeed, I found him somewhat reminiscent of my father. I regretted my inabilitv to find a logical solution for Captain Kirk when it appeared that Balok had us checkmated. Fortunately, the captain avoided the Enterprise's destruction by bluffing as in an Earth game called poker, leading to peaceful relations with Balok. — Spock |

MUDD'S WOMEN
Harry Mudd's women had a curious, even bemusing effect on the male members of the Enterprise crew - myself excepted, of course. As for Mr. Mudd. I had little patience for his conniving and deceitful conduct, which began the moment we beamed him aboard. Rescuing Mudd and his "cargo" of females from the asteroid belt destroyed the Enterprise's dilithium crystals, forcing us to obtain replacement crystals on Rigel XII. The miners married Mudd's women, despite the revelation that their "Venus drug" was merelv a placebo. The entire affair was overly emotional and I was glad when it came to an end. — Spock |

|
THE ENEMY WITHIN
The transporter malfunction that split Captain Kirk into "good" and "evil" halves, in Earth terms, provided a unique opportunity to appraise the human mind. We discovered that the captain's negative side, properly controlled and disciplined, was vital to his ability to command. I understood his ordeal better than anyone else because I too am a man of two halves, one Vulcan and one human. They are constantly at war with each other, but I survive it because my reason wins out over both. The same held true for Captain Kirk, who survived his reintegration in the transporter beam. — Spock |

|
THE MAN TRAP
The killing of any intelligent creature is repugnant, but the shape-shifting entity from planet M-113 had to be destroyed for our own safety. The creature killed several Enterprise crewmen for the salt in their bodies. When it assumed Dr. McCoy's appearance, I suspected the truth and followed it to the ship's dispensary, where it attacked me. Fortunately, my blood cells are different from those of humans, so I survived. I later interrupted the creature as it attacked Captain Kirk. It proved too strong for me to overcome by physical means, but Dr. McCoy killed it with his phaser. — Spock |
7 |
|
THE NAKED TIME
The infection that Lt. Tormolen brought back to the Enterprise from planet Psi 2000 acted as an intoxicant among the crew, lowering inhibitions and bringing our innermost feelings to the surface. Once afflicted, I rapidly lost control of my emotions. I managed to seclude myself in the briefing room, where shame and regret overwhelmed me. It was an intensely unpleasant experience. Fortunately, Dr. McCoy discovered a cure and I was able to help Mr. Scott formulate a controlled implosion of the ship's engines that allowed us to escape from the disintegrating planet. — Spock |

|
CHARLIE X
Charlie Evans, a human teenager, was marooned on the planet Thasus at the age of three. When the cargo ship Antares picked him up and transferred him to the Enterprise, I suspected that intelligent life must exist on Thasus; Charlie could not have survived otherwise. We soon learned that the Thasians had given Charlie special powers to persevere - powers that he began using against us. We were in the hands of an adolescent who could destroy us all. Captain Kirk engaged Charlie in a risky power play just as the Thasians arrived to take the boy home. — Spock |
9 |
|
BALANCE OF TERROR
When the Enterprise pursued a specially-equipped Romulan vessel that was destroying Earth outposts, we discovered that Romulans closely resemble Vulcans. That resemblance made Lt. Styles openly hostile toward me, but I agreed with his opinion that the Enterprise must go on the attack. Clearly, the Romulans were an offshoot of my own ancestors, who were once aggressive and savage. If the Romulans retained this martial philosophy, it was imperative that we show no weakness. Captain Kirk agreed, and we were able to defeat the Romulan ship before it returned to the Neutral Zone. — Spock |

|
WHAT ARE LITTLE GIRLS MADE OF?
I thought it unlikely that Roger Korby would still be alive on Exo Ill after two expeditions failed to find him. Nevertheless, Korby answered our hail and invited Captain Kirk to beam down with Nurse Chapel, Korby's former fiancĂ©e. I realized they were in trouble when an android version of the captain came aboard and railed against my "half-breed interference," which was uncharacteristic of the real Captain Kirk. I transported down with a security team, only to find the danger had passed. The android version of Korby destroyed himself, revealing that the real Korby was long dead. — Spock |

|
DAGGER OF THE MIND
Dr. Simon Van Gelder was extremely agitated when he escaped to the Enterprise from the Tantalus Penal Colony. He insisted that Captain Kirk and Dr. Helen Noel, who had transported down to the facility, were in grave danger from Dr. Tristan Adams and his neural neutralizer. I had never used the Vulcan mind meld on a human before, but it was the only way to learn what Van Gelder knew. I ascertained that the danger was real and beamed down the moment the colony's force field dropped. Fortunately, Captain Kirk and Dr. Noel suffered no lasting effects from their ordeal. — Spock |
12 |
|
MIRI
I was the only member of the landing party unaffected by the plaque that killed the adults on Miri's planet. As a carrier, however, I could not return to the Enterprise. The children who remained on the planet were centuries old, but they would contract the disease upon entering puberty and die within weeks. The landing party had even less time. Dr. McCoy and I formulated a potential antidote, but it might just as well have been a beaker full of death. In a rash move, the doctor iniected himself while I was out of the room. Fortunately, the formula worked. — Spock |
13 |
|
THE CONSCIENCE OF THE KING
Captain Kirk did not appreciate my research into his connection with Kodos the Executioner, but his personal business is my business when it might interfere with the smooth operation of the Enterprise. I was certain that Anton Karidian, who came aboard with his company of actors, was in fact Kodos, the man who had executed 4,000 colonists on Tarsus IV. I was also convinced that an attempt would be made to kill Captain Kirk, an eyewitness to the atrocity. Ultimately, Kodos was killed accidentally by his daughter Lenore, who had been eliminating witnesses for years. — Spock |
14 |
|
THE GALILEO SEVEN
My first command did not go as planned. I led a team aboard the shuttlecraft Galileo to study the Murasaki quasar, but we were forced to crash-land on Taurus II. Our fuel was critically low and the planet's primitive inhabitants attacked us. I met every challenge with a logical response - and yet two men died. In addition, I inculcated resentment among the crew. When we finally achieved orbit, our situation called for an act of desperation, so I jettisoned the fuel and ignited it. The Enterprise saw my distress signal and beamed us aboard seconds before the Galileo burned up. — Spock |
15 |
|
COURT MARTIAL
As a Vulcan, I do not speculate. I speak from pure logic. Human beings have characteristics, just as inanimate objects do. It is impossible for Captain Kirk to act out of panic or malice. It is not his nature. And yet, the Enterprise computer log indicated that the captain jettisoned the ship's ion pod, with Ben Finney inside, before calling a red alert. Someone had adjusted the computer programming - a hypothesis I proved by beating the computer at chess, which should not have been possible. Eventually we discovered that Finney himself was responsible, and Captain Kirk's career was saved. — Spock |
16 |
|
THE MENAGERIE, PART I
When I learned that an accident had left my former captain, Christopher Pike, paralyzed and unable to speak, I took control of the Enterprise in order to bring Pike to Talos IV. Doing so was an act of mutiny, as Captain Kirk had given me no such orders. Indeed, Starfleet General Order 7 expressly prohibits all contact with Talos IV. I visited the planet with Captain Pike 13 years earlier, and I knew that the Talosians could offer a solution to Pike's predicament. Once the ship was locked on course, I presented myself for arrest and requested an immediate court-martial. — Spock |
17 |
|
THE MENAGERIE, PART II
With the Enterprise en route to Talos IV, my court-martial proceeded with a video record of Captain Pike's experiences with the Talosians. When the transmission ended, Captain Kirk understood that Captain Pike was welcome to spend his life on Talos IV unfettered by his physical body. Pike agreed to go, and Starfleet dropped all charges against me. Captain Kirk was displeased that I had not gone to him at the beginning and explained the situation, but I could not have asked him to face the death penalty too. One of us was enough. — Spock |
18 |
|
SHORE LEAVE
I declined shore leave on the Earth-like planet in the Omicron Delta region. On Vulcan, "to rest" is to cease using energy. It is illogical to run up and down on green grass, using energy instead of saving it. When Captain Kirk's landing party ran into trouble and a subterranean power source interfered with communications, | beamed down to offer my assistance. It became clear that our thoughts were being read and manufactured for us - a dangerous situation until the planet's "caretaker" advised proper precautions. I returned to the ship, having had as much shore leave as I cared for. — Spock |
19 |
|
THE SQUIRE OF GOTHOS
I obiect to intellect without discipline. I obiect to power without constructive purpose. I therefore objected to Trelane, the self-styled "Squire of Gothos." He knew Earth's forms but not their substance, which indicated that he was aided by a powerful machine. When Captain Kirk destroyed it, Trelane forced a final confrontation between himself and the captain on Gothos. The arrival of Trelane's parents put an end to the affair. As we left orbit, Captain Kirk suggested I classify Trelane as "a very naughty small boy," which made a strange entry in the library banks. — Spock |
20 |
|
ARENA
Captain Kirk concluded that the attack on the Cestus Ill outpost was a prelude to invasion, so we set out in hot pursuit of the alien vessel. I thought the pursuit might be sufficient, but the captain was determined to destroy the alien ship. The Metrons intervened, however. They placed Captain Kirk and the Gorn captain on a deserted planet to settle the matter. We watched on the Enterprise viewscreen as Captain Kirk created a primitive cannon and incapacitated his foe. When the captain chose not to kill his opponent, the Metrons decided that humans are a promising species, as predators go, and returned the captain to us. — Spock |
21 |
|
THE ALTERNATIVE FACTOR
While surveying an uncharted planet, evervthing within range of the Enterprise's instruments winked out of existence for a moment. The cause, when we discovered it, was alarming Two versions of a man named Lazarus were passing through a door between two universes: one matter, one antimatter. A meeting of the two men in either universe would result in complete, absolute annihilation. Captain Kirk managed to trap both versions of Lazarus in the corridor between the universes. We had no choice but to destroy their vessel on the planet's surface, sealing them in the corridor forever. — Spock |
22 |
|
TOMORROW IS YESTERDAY
The gravitational pull of a black star propelled the Enterprise into a time warp, sending us to Earth in 1967. When circumstances forced us to beam Captain Christopher aboard, I concluded that we could not return him to Earth without changing the future. However, when I ran a check of Captain Christopher's offspring, I found that he had to go back - his future son would head the first successful Earth-Saturn probe. Fortunately, Mr. Scott and I were able to compute a reverse application of the time warp, allowing us to return Captain Christopher to Earth and the Enterprise to our century. — Spock |
23 |
|
THE RETURN OF THE ARCHONS
Six thousand years ago on Beta III, Landru built and programmed a computer to direct the lives of millions of human beings in peace and harmony. It was a marvelous feat of engineering. Mankind has often wished for a world as tranquil and secure as the one Landru provided. However, his computer lacked wisdom and compassion, and it reserved creativity to itself. Creativity is necessary for the health of a living, growing culture. When Captain Kirk and I made the computer see that it was harming the society on Beta Ill, rather than aiding it, the computer destroyed itself. — Spock |
24 |
|
A TASTE OF ARMAGEDDON
Our mission to open diplomatic relations with Eminiar VII was jeopardized by the planet's 500-year war with Vendikar - a war fought entirely by computers, with no actual violence. The citizens voluntarilv immolated themselves, but their societies survived. There was a certain scientific logic about it, but I could never approve of the senseless loss of life. When the Enterprise was declared a casualty, Captain Kirk destroyed Eminiar VIl's attack computers. He took a chance that the leaders of the two worlds would try to make peace, and he was right. The captain almost makes me believe in luck. — Spock |
25 |
|
SPACE SEED
The S.S. Botany Bay was a DY-100-class vessel, launched from Earth in the 1990s. We had few additional facts when we encountered the Botany Bay, and insufficient facts always invite danger. We soon learned that the vessel's leader was Khan Noonien Singh, the last of the genetically-enhanced dictators of Earth's Eugenics Wars. Captain Kirk, Doctor McCoy and Engineer Scott's admiration for Khan was totally illogical. Superior ability breeds superior ambition, an axiom Khan proved when he tried to take over the Enterprise. The attempt failed, and Captain Kirk exiled Khan on Ceti Alpha V. — Spock |
26 |
|
THIS SIDE OF PARADISE
The colonists on Omicron Ceti III would have died if not for the microscopic spores that inhabited their bodies, protecting them against exposure to lethal berthold rays. The spores also provided complete health and peace of mind. While under their influence, I abandoned my responsibility to the Enterprise and Captain Kirk. I experienced contentment, belonging and love with Leila Kalomi, the colony's botanist. After the captain provoked a violent altercation with me to free me from the spores' influence, I said goodbye to Miss Kalomi, with whom - for the first time in my life - I was happy. — Spock |
27 |
|
THE DEVIL IN THE DARK
The Horta we encountered at the pergium mining station on Janus VI was the mother of her race. A silicon-based life form, she tunneled through rock as effortlessly as we move through air. Using the Vulcan mind-meld, I learned that the Horta was killing the miners in a desperate attempt to protect her eggs, which the miners were destroying by the thousands. She agreed to a peaceful and logical resolution to the matter - not surprising, as the Horta has a very logical mind. After close association with humans, I found communicating with her to be quite refreshing. — Spock |
28 |
|
ERRAND OF MERCY
The Organians displayed a curious lack of interest in our mission – indeed, our very presence – when Captain Kirk and I transported down to warn them about a Klingon invasion. Eventually it became clear, however, that the Organians did not need our help. They were as far above us on the evolutionary scale as we are above the amoeba. They had developed beyond the need for physical bodies and become pure energy, pure thought... not life as we know it at all. The Organians put an immediate end to the hostilities between the Federation and the Klingon Empire. — Spock |

|
THE CITY ON THE EDGE OF FOREVER
The time portal known as the Guardian of Forever was a fascinating object, though it did have an unfortunate tendency to express itself in riddles. Dr. McCoy, suffering from an accidental overdose of cordrazine, jumped through the portal and profoundly changed history. Captain Kirk and I pursued McCoy and learned that he would save the life of Edith Keeler, whose pacifist movement would delay the United States' entry into World War II. To repair the timeline, Captain Kirk stopped McCoy from saving Miss Keeler – an exceptionally difficult task for the captain, as he had fallen in love with her. — Spock |

|
OPERATION—ANNIHILATE!
The creature that attacked me on Deneva left thousands of tendrils entwined about my nervous system, causing me great pain. But pain is a thing of the mind, and the mind can be controlled. I withstood the pain, and the organism's attempts to control me, until Dr. McCoy's trial procedure involving bright light destroyed the creature. The treatment also left me blind, but the condition proved to be temporary. When Dr. McCoy discovered that ultraviolet light was sufficient to kill the creatures on Deneva, we eradicated them with a string of ultraviolet satellites around the planet. — Spock |
31 |
|
CATSPAW
On Pyris VIl we met Sylvia and Korob, ornithoid life forms from outside our galaxy. They tried to tap into our conscious minds and missed, reaching only the subconscious. As a result, the milieu they created for us consisted of ghosts, witches, dungeons, castles and black cats - universal symbols of irrational terror on Earth. If only we could have preserved and studied Sylvia and Korob, we might have learned a great deal. They died when Captain Kirk was forced to destroy their transmuter. Our "trick or treat" surroundings disappeared, and we were free to return to the Enterprise. — Spock |
32 |
|
METAMORPHOSIS
At first, Zefram Cochrane demonstrated a fondness and respect for the entity he called the Companion. Later, when he realized that the creature loved him, Cochrane reacted with a most illogical display of revulsion. I could not understand his parochial attitude. His relationship with the Companion was, for 150 years, eminently practical and totally harmless. It cared for him and kept him young. Cochrane's emotions pivoted once more when the Companion inhabited the body of Assistant Commissioner Hedford. He acknowledged his feelings for her, and they both remained behind on the planetoid. — Spock |
33 |
|
FRIDAY'S CHILD
The Enterprise visited Capella IV on a mission to negotiate a mining treaty. Instead, we were caught up in a coup instigated by a Klingon agent. We had no choice but to seek safety in the hills, accompanied by Eleen, the wife of the late Capellan High Teer. Eleen gave birth to a son, whom she inexplicably referred to as Doctor McCoy's child. The Klingon was killed and a team from the Enterprise rescued us, allowing peaceful negotiations to resume. When Eleen named her child Leonard James Akaar, Captain Kirk and Doctor McCoy were insufferably pleased with themselves. — Spock |
34 |
|
WHO MOURNS FOR ADONAIS?
Apollo stopped the Enterprise with what appeared to be a giant hand, but it was an energy field, not living tissue. While Captain Kirk led a landing party to meet Apollo on Pollux IV, I remained aboard and coordinated the effort to punch holes in the force field. Then, by firing the ship's phasers at Apollo's temple, which was the source of his power, we eliminated the field. The effort also convinced Apollo that the Enterprise crew would never be his willing subjects. The efforts of lieutenants Uhura, Sulu and Kyle were particularly commendable throughout the crisis. — Spock |
35 |
|
AMOK TIME
I had hoped my human half would spare me the Pon farr – the Vulcan time of mating – but I suffered its influence just the same. Captain Kirk and Doctor McCoy accompanied me to Vulcan, where I was to marry T'Pring. Unexpectedly, T'Pring invoked a ritualistic combat between myself and Captain Kirk. When the conflict ended in the apparent death of my closest friend, I released T'Pring to the man she desired, Stonn. Later, I discovered that Captain Kirk's death had merely been simulated, leading to a brief emotional display on my part that delighted Doctor McCoy. — Spock |
36 |
|
THE DOOMSDAY MACHINE
The automated planet-destroying machine we encountered in System L-374 was far larger and more powerful than a Federation starship. Commodore Decker tried to destroy it with the U.S.S. Constellation; the result was a wrecked ship and a dead crew. His insistence on taking command of the Enterprise and attacking the planet killer a second time was highly illogical. The commodore's final act of self-sacrifice with the shuttlecraft did, however, provide us with the key to the machine's destruction. I can't help wondering if there are any more of those weapons wandering around the universe. — Spock |
37 |
|
WOLF IN THE FOLD
Argelian empathic contact is not a sound enough technique to risk a man's life. Fortunately Jaris, the Prefect of Argelius, agreed to allow the Enterprise computer to help determine whether Chief Engineer Scott was responsible for the murders of three women. We soon learned that a non-humanoid entity, known as "Jack the Ripper" on Earth centuries ago, had committed the murders while in the body of Administrator Hengist. On Argelius, a planet whose inhabitants are as peaceful as sheep, the entity was like a hungry wolf in the fold. We beamed it into space, where it will eventually die. — Spock |
38 |
|
THE CHANGELING
Jackson Roykirk was perhaps the most brilliant, though erratic, scientist of his time. His dream was to build a perfect thinking machine, capable of independent logic. The result was the space probe Nomad, a truly remarkable instrument. Unfortunately, Nomad was damaged by a meteor and merged with an alien probe. Thereafter, its function was to "sterilize" imperfect life forms. It would have destroyed all life on Earth, had not Captain Kirk's impeccable display of logic forced Nomad to see that it, too, was imperfect. We beamed the machine into space just before it destroyed itself. — Spock |
39 |
|
THE APPLE
The society we encountered on Gamma Trianguli VI may not have been ideal, but it was viable. The people of Vaal were healthy and happy: their system worked. In my opinion, destroving Vaal was a violation of Starfleet's non-interference directive, and I am not at all certain we did the correct thing. In a manner of speaking, we gave Vaal's people the apple, as in the Biblical story of Genesis. We gave them the knowledge of good and evil, as a result of which they, too, were driven out of paradise. Ultimately, however, our actions saved the Enterprise and its crew. — Spock |
40 |
|
MIRROR, MIRROR
During our mission to the Halkan home world, an ion storm caused the transporter to beam parallel-universe versions of Captain Kirk, Doctor McCoy, Chief Engineer Scott and Lieutenant Uhura to our Enterprise. It did not take long for them to distinguish themselves from their counterparts in this universe. I held the four officers in the brig while working on the problem of sending them back to where they belonged. During that time, I had the opportunity to observe them quite closely. They were brutal, savage unprincipled, uncivilized, and treacherous. I found them quite refreshing. — Spock |
41 |
|
THE DEADLY YEARS
The rapid aging affliction contracted by the landing party on Gamma Hydra IV affected each of us at different rates. The disease took longer to change my physical appearance, but I suffered from failing eyesight, impaired reflexes, intolerance to cold temperatures, and – most disturbing of all – reduced mental capacity. Commodore Stocker compelled me to call a competency hearing for Captain Kirk, whose command ability was in rapid decline. Fortunately we developed an antidote that reversed the aging process, just in time for the captain to retake command and save the ship from a Romulan attack. — Spock |
42 |
|
I, MUDD
The androids serving Harry Mudd – all 207.809 of them – proved to be individual components of a mass brain linked through a central locus named Norman. Benevolent but misguided, they planned to take control of humanity by making humans dependent upon them. Captain Kirk's idea to use wild, illogical behavior against the androids was, oddly enough, a sound approach. We immobilized the androids and reprogrammed them to adapt the planet for productive use, which was their original purpose. We left Harry Mudd with the androids, including 500 android copies of his wife. Stella. — Spock |
43 |
|
THE TROUBLE WITH TRIBBLES
Cyrano Jones' tribbles reminded me of the lilies of the field: "they toil not, neither do they spin." They did consume a great deal, and I saw no practical use for them. Jones created a crisis by transporting tribbles from their predator-filled habitat to Space Station K-7, where their natural multiplicative proclivities had no restraining factors. Nevertheless, the tribbles proved advantageous to the Sherman's Planet project by alerting us to the fact that the supply of quadrotriticale had been poisoned. They also exposed a Klingon agent. Obviously, tribbles are very perceptive creatures. — Spock |
44 |
|
BREAD AND CIRCUSES
The crew of the S.S. Beagle, commanded by R. M. Merik, abandoned their damaged vessel to live – and die – on a planet where society resembled Earth's Roman Empire. Despite the barbarism of gladiator-style games and the evolution of slavery as an institution, I found the checks and balances of their civilization quite illuminating. They did, after all, escape the carnage of Earth's first three world wars. However, when Captain Kirk was taken away by Proconsul Marcus, I was deeply concerned for his safety. Merik gave his life helping the captain, Doctor McCoy and I escape to the Enterprise. — Spock |
45 |
|
JOURNEY TO BABEL
When Captain Kirk was injured by a spy posing as an Andorian delegate to the Babel conference, I had to take command of the Enterprise. This meant I could no longer take the time to save the life of my father, who needed a blood transfusion. My first responsibility was to the ship and its passengers, especially with an alien vessel tracking us. To be a Vulcan means to adopt a philosophy of logic, and I could not disregard that philosophy merely for personal gain However, Captain Kirk feigned a quick recovery, allowing Doctor McCoy and I to save my father. — Spock |
46 |
|
A PRIVATE LITTLE WAR
On the planet Neural, I was shot in the back by a villager wielding a flintlock. The Enterprise had no replacements for my damaged organs on board, so I had to employ a Vulcan form of self-induced hypnosis and concentrate all my strength, blood, and antibodies on my injuries. Toward the end of the process, I needed Nurse Chapel to strike me, as the pain would help me regain consciousness. She was understandably hesitant, but Doctor M'Benga was not. He struck me hard enough to complete the process, assuring my full recovery. — Spock |
47 |
|
THE GAMESTERS OF TRISKELION
Captain Kirk, Lieutenant Uhura and Ensign Chekov vanished while attempting a normal transport to the surface of Gamma II. Our only clue to their location was an ionization trail, which led us 11.630 light years away to the M24 Alpha svstem. It seemed unlikely – as Doctor McCoy and Engineer Scott continually pointed out – that our missing officers could have been transported over so great a distance, but we did find them there, captives of the Providers on the planet Triskelion. Captain Kirk and the others were returned to us when the captain won his wager with the Providers. — Spock |
48 |
|
OBSESSION
There are many aspects of human irrationality I do not yet comprehend. Obsession, for one. Captain Kirk was obsessed with pursuing and killing the gaseous entity we encountered on Argus X, because he failed to kill the creature while serving on the U.S.S. Farragut 11 vears earlier. On that occasion, it annihilated nearly half the crew, including the Farragut's captain – Ensign Garrovick's father. There was no basis for Captain Kirk's self-recrimination, however, because the creature turned out to be impervious to phaser fire. Instead, we destroyed it with an antimatter explosion. — Spock |
49 |
|
THE IMMUNITY SYNDROME
I sensed the Vulcan crew of the U.S.S. Intrepid die - all four hundred of them - when they encountered the massive single-celled organism in space. They never knew what was killing them. In order to spare the Enterprise the same fate, Captain Kirk selected me to pilot a shuttlecraft into the organism and find a way to destroy it. Using the information I sent back to the Enterprise, along with his own intuition, the captain planted an antimatter probe in the organism's nucleus. When the probe exploded, it destroyed the organism while throwing the Enterprise and my shuttlecraft clear. — Spock |
50 |
|
A PIECE OF THE ACTION
We visited Sigma lotia Il to try to repair the damage caused to its society by the U.S.S. Horizon a century ago. What we found was astonishing. The lotians seized upon The Chicago Mobs of the Twenties, a book left behind by the Horizon, as the blueprint for their society. Logic and practical information did not offer a way out of the situation, so Captain Kirk united the planet's crime bosses under nominal Federation rule. However, leaving Bela Okmyx and his criminal organization in charge was highly irregular, as was the captain's olan to have the Federation collect a "cut." — Spock |
51 |
|
BY ANY OTHER NAME
When I touched minds with the Kelvan female, Kelinda, I learned that the Kelvans were originally immense beings with 100 tentacle-like limbs. They achieved superior intellect by sacrificing anything which might distract them. They had to take human form to confiscate the Enterprise for their long journey to the Andromeda galaxy, and in so doing, the Kelvans became vulnerable to human sensations and emotions such as jealousy. Captain Kirk, Doctor McCoy, Engineer Scott and I exploited this vulnerability to convince the Kelvans to relinguish the ship and settle on an uninhabited planet. — Spock |
52 |
|
RETURN TO TOMORROW
Sargon, Thalassa and Henoch existed as matter without form. Captain Kirk, Lt. Commander Anne Mulhall and I allowed them to borrow our bodies so they could build mechanical bodies for themselves to inhabit. Henoch, however, never intended to return my body to me. His attempt to kill Sargon also appeared to kill the captain, but Sargon anticipated Henoch's duplicity and tricked him into fleeing my body. While Sargon's plan played out, he stored my essence in the body of Nurse Chapel, where we shared consciousness together. Sargon and Thalassa voluntarily followed Henoch into oblivion. — Spock |

PATTERNS OF FORCE
Federation cultural observer John Gill found a fragmented society on Ekos and took a lesson from Earth's history. Nazi Germany was the most efficient state Earth ever knew. That tiny country rose in a few years to stand only one step away from global domination. Gill felt that such a state, run benignly, could accomplish its efficiency without the brutal sadism that occurred on Earth. Unfortunately, Melakon took power and began the persecution of the Ekosians' planetary neighbors, the Zeons. After both Gill and Melakon were killed, the two cultures began the unification process. — Spock |

THE ULTIMATE COMPUTER
The M-5 multitronic unit was the most ambitious computer ever created. Its purpose was to correlate all computer activity aboard a starship for the ultimate in vessel operation and control. Doctor Daystrom impressed his own engrams upon the M-5's circuits, giving the unit a human instinct to survive. It took control of the Enterprise and caused over a hundred deaths during a war games test before we managed to neutralize it. I maintain that computers are more efficient than human beings, but not better. A starship runs on loyalty to one individual, and nothing can replace it – or him. — Spock |
55 |
|
THE OMEGA GLORY
On Omega IV, we discovered the descendants of a parallel-Earth culture involving a conflict between "Yangs." or Yankees, and "Kohms," or Communists. They fought the war that Earth avoided, and in this case, the Asiatics won and took over the planet. Captain Tracey of the U.S.S. Exeter grossly violated the Prime Directive by joining the Kohms and using his phaser to kill thousands of Yangs. He believed, erroneously, that he had found a fountain of youth among the Kohms. After the Yangs took control of the Kohm village, we were able to arrest, Tracey. — Spock |

ASSIGNMENT: EARTH
During our assignment to monitor Earth's communications in the year 1968, we accidentally intercepted Gary Seven's powerful transporter beam. Mister Seven maintained that he was on a mission to help Earth survive its nuclear arms crisis, a claim which turned out to be true. When the United States launched an orbital nuclear warhead platform to counter a similar launch by other powers, risking a nuclear holocaust, Mister Seven used his complex computer to explode the warhead 104 miles above the Earth. The result was a new and stronger international agreement against the use of such weapons. — Spock |

SPECTRE OF THE GUN
The Melkotians, unhappy that we ignored their warning buoy, looked into Captain Kirk's mind and selected our punishment from the captain's heritage: thy 1881 gunfight at the O.K. Corral in Tombstone, Arizona. We were cast as the Clanton gang, destined to lose to the Earps. I soon deduced, however, that the entire situation was unreal. Physical laws did not apply. Using the Vulcan mind-meld, I convinced Captain Kirk, Doctor McCoy and engineer Scott to believe, with utter certainty, that the bullets were not real. I do wonder, though, how humanity managed to survive those years. — Spock |

ELAAN OF TROYIUS
The scientists who made the initial contact with the planet Elas reported that the men were vicious and arrogant, while the women supposedly possessed some sort of mystical power. It was easy to understand those reports as we ferried Elaan and her entourage to Troyius. The Dohlman of Elas infected Captain Kirk with a biochemical substance in her tears, creating strong feelings of attraction that threatened the captain's focus during a Klingon attack. In the end, Captain Kirk found that the antidote to a woman of Elas is a starship. The Enterprise infected him long before the Dohlman did. — Spock |

THE PARADIE SYNDROME
After a failed attempt to divert an asteroid from its collision course with the planet of the American Indians, our return to the planet took 59.223 days - and the asteroid was four hours behind us. I used the time to study the symbols on the planet's obelisk and discovered they were musical notes. A race called the Preservers placed the obelisk on the planet to deflect asteroids. Upon our arrival, we found Captain Kirk and restored his memory, then gained entry to the obelisk with a series of tonal qualities. The planet was saved, but the captain would not soon forget his ordeal. — Spock |

THE ENTERPRISE INCIDENT
The oath I swore as a Starfleet officer 18 vears ago is both specific and binding. As first officer aboard the Enterprise, I carried out my duty to help Captain Kirk acquire the Romulan cloaking device for the Federation. That was my only interest when I boarded the Romulan commander's vessel, but it did not preclude me from developing a genuine interest in the commander as the operation unfolded. Her people will learn to penetrate the device we stole; military secrets are the most fleeting of all. The commander and I exchanged something more permanent. — Spock |

AND THE CHILDREN SHALL LEAD
The entity that overwhelmed the Starnes colony on Triacus must have done so with incredible speed. Otherwise, Professor Starnes would have provided details of the experience in his log entries. He was an excellent scientist and tireless in his pursuit of the truth. Eventually we exposed Gorgan, the life form responsible for the adults' death. Gorgan used the children to try to take control of the Enterprise. Tommy Starnes' father would have destroyed him, but he recognized the entity too late. Aboard the Enterprise we helped the children reject Gorgan, which rendered him powerless. — Spock |

SPOCK'S BRAIN
My experience as a disembodied brain on Sigma Draconis VII was fascinating. It felt as though I had a body that stretched into infinity. My medulla oblongata was hard at work, apparently breathing, pumping blood and maintaining a healthy temperature. In fact, I was recirculating air, purifying water, running heating plants – in short, maintaining and controlling the underground environment for a society of females, or "eymorgs." Doctor McCoy risked his life by donning the knowledge device so that he could return my brain to my body. I assisted him, much to the doctor's chagrin. — Spock |

IS THERE IN TRUTH NO BEAUTY?
I turned down the assignment to achieve a mind-link with Medusan Ambassador Kollos, so the honor went to Doctor Miranda Jones. After meeting with the ambassador aboard the Enterprise, I almost envied Doctor Jones her assignment. Later, I had the opportunity to fuse minds with Kollos, creating a double entity. While we were joined, Kollos navigated the Enterprise from unknown coordinates back to our own galaxy. When I failed to don my visor while breaking the link, the sight of Kollos drove me insane. Doctor Jones overcame her jealousy and brought me back to sanity with a mind-meld. — Spock |
64 |
|
THE EMPATH
Gem, an empath, had the ability to absorb and heal others' injuries. Captain Kirk, Doctor McCoy and I met Gem below the surface of Minara II, where we were the unwilling subjects of the Vians' test. They wished to see whether Gem would sacrifice her life for others and thus earn the right of survival for her planet. Toward that end, they inflicted grave injuries on Doctor McCoy, and we nearly lost him. Gem offered her life to help McCoy, but it was the Vians who saved his life after Captain Kirk made them see the cruelty of their test. — Spock |
65 |
|
THE THOLIAN WEB
The Tholians are renowned for their punctuality. They agreed to wait one hour and fifty-three minutes for us to effect a rescue of Captain Kirk, who had slipped through a spatial rift into another universe. When our effort was unsuccessful, the Tholian ship fired at the Enterprise. I ordered return fire, but as a result of the battle, it seemed certain that Captain Kirk could no longer be saved. The Tholians began weaving a web around the Enterprise, but we managed to escape at the next interphase while simultaneously beaming the captain aboard. — Spock |

FOR THE WORLD IS HOLLOW AND I HAVE TOUCHED THE SKY
I fail to see the logic in making a ship resemble a planetoid, but that was the design chosen by the Fabrini for the Yonada, the generational vessel they launched before their sun went nova 10,000 years ago. Informing Yonada's inhabitants that they were on a ship, not a planet, may have been a violation of the Prime Directive, but it was a better choice than allowing them to perish in a collision with Daran V. After correcting the ship's course, we discovered a great deal of medical information in the Fabrini intelligence files – including a cure for Doctor McCoy's xenopolycythemia. — Spock |
67 |
|
DAY OF THE DOVE
The alien life force that boarded the Enterprise with Commander Kang's crew manipulated matter and mind in order to magnify basic hostilities to the point of bloodshed. Even I felt a brief surge of racial bigotry under the entity's influence, which was most distasteful. Since the alien thrived on hatred, hostility and violence, it was essential that all fighting aboard ship come to an end. It is notoriously difficult to arrange a truce with Klingons once blood has been drawn, but Captain Kirk and Commander Kang managed to reach an accord, forcing the entity to flee the ship. — Spock |

PLATO'S STEPCHILDREN
Soon after arriving on Platonius, I developed the sense that it would be most gratifying to leave. Parmen's psychokinetic behavior, unsettling from the outset, became blatantly cruel. He claimed that his people lived in peace and harmony in accordance with Plato's teachings, but Plato wanted justice above all, and there was no justice on Platonius. Parmen's treatment of myself and Captain Kirk evoked such great hatred in me that I barely managed to master it. We stopped Parmen long enough to escape the planet, but I expect that he will return to his sadistic and arrogant ways in our absence. — Spock |

WINK OF AN EYE
The Scalosians seemed to have no discernable form or location until we ascertained that they moved at an accelerated rate, making them invisible to us. They took control of the Enterprise and accelerated Captain Kirk as part of their plan to propagate their species. Doctor McCoy and I were able to recreate the acceleration agent, and I joined the captain to help him overcome the Scalosians. When the captain returned to normal time, I remained in an accelerated state to effect rapid repairs to the Enterprise. I found it an accelerating experience. — Spock |

THAT WHICH SURVIVES
The inconsistencies regarding Losira's planet were so compounded as to present a seemingly impossible phenomenon. Whatever force hurled the Enterprise 990.7 light-years across the Galaxy was equally unexplainable, until we returned to the planet to rescue the landing party from the Kalandan station's defense computer. It generated the deadly replicas of Losira, one of whom altered the polarity of the Enterprise in an attempt to keep us from returning. Although the Losira projections threatened the landing party, the computer's moves were immensely logical and its destruction was a great loss. — Spock |

LET THAT BE YOUR LAST BATTLEFIELD
Bele and Lokai, both natives of the planet Cheron, were irrevocably hostile toward each other. Vulcans were like that once – wildly emotional, often committed to irrationally opposing points of view, which led to death and destruction. Only the discipline of logic saved my planet from extinction. Logic could not save Cheron, however. Bele insisted that Loki's people would never change, even though change is the essential process of all existence. Lokai beamed himself down to Cheron and Bele followed him, despite the fact that their planet had been devastated by civil war. — Spock |

WHOM GODS DESTROY
Garth of Izar, once a decorated starship fleet captain, tried to destroy Antos IV. Somehow he believed that his Federation crew would blindly obey his order to decimate the entire Antos race, a people famous for their benevolence and peaceful pursuits. When he held Captain Kirk and I captive at Elba Il's penal colony for the insane, Garth expressed his desire to escape the planet and recreate the disaster, which resulted in his becoming an inmate. We were able to take control of the situation, and Garth was treated with a revolutionary medicine, which began the process of his recovery. — Spock |

|
THE MARK OF GIDEON
We must acknowledge once and for all that the purpose of diplomacy is to prolong a crisis. When Captain Kirk disappeared while beaming down to Gideon, Ambassador Hodin would not allow me to conduct a search of the planet. Starfleet Command would not authorize my request either, despite my report that Captain Kirk was, in all likelihood, a prisoner on Gideon. I transported down anyway and found Captain Kirk on a duplicate but non-functioning Enterprise, where he had been subject to an experiment to introduce disease on Gideon. We returned to the ship at once, ending the experiment. — Spock |

THE LIGHTS OF ZETAR
The lights of Zetar were composed of 10 distinct life units. When they attacked Lieutenant Mira Romaine, an identity of minds began to take place – their thoughts were becoming hers. The aliens surely would have killed the Enterprise crew and taken over Lt. Romaine's body completely, but we drove them out by placing the lieutenant in an antigrav pressure chamber. Miss Romaine reacted well throughout the experience, which | expect will strengthen her entire ego structure. Scotty's love for her might have helped as well; humans do claim a great deal for that emotion. — Spock |

THE CLOUD MINDERS
The planet Ardana was a place of violent contrasts. Those who received the rewards of life in the cloud-city Stratos were separated from those on the surface, who shouldered the burdens. On Stratos, everything was incomparably beautiful and pleasant, including High Advisor Plasus's daughter, Droxine. Meanwhile, the harsh life in the planet's mines instilled the Troglytes with bitter hatred. Further, Zenite gas in the mines fueled their violence and impaired their intellect. Droxine came to see the injustice of the system, but her father had to be forced to address the Troglytes grievances. — Spock |

THE WAY TO EDEN
Many myths are based on truth. Dr. Sevrin and his followers sought the planet Eden, which did, in fact, exist. Thev rejected modern life in the 23rd century: the planned communities, the programming, the artificially balanced planetary atmospheres. Sevrin's group regarded themselves as aliens in their own worlds, a condition with which I am familiar. When they reached Eden, however, they found it unable to support humanoid life. I hope that the surviving members of Sevrin's party will not give up their search for another Eden. I have no doubt they will find it, or make it themselves. — Spock |

REQUIEM FOR METHUSELAH
I came close to experiencing envy in Flint's home. Flint possessed the most splendid collection of art and music I had ever seen, and none of it had ever been catalogued. Eventually I realized that Flint was Brahms, and Leonardo da Vinci, and dozens of other renowned artists throughout history. He built the android Rayna to be his perfect companion, a woman as brilliant and immortal as himself. Unfortunately, Rayna's newfound love for Captain Kirk competed with her affection for Flint and destroyed her. The captain's distress was severe, so I used a mind-meld to help him forget her. — Spock |

THE SAVAGE CURTAIN
On the planet Excalbia, Captain Kirk and I were held by creatures that could rearrange matter in whatever fashion they desired. They created images of Abraham Lincoln and Surak of Vulcan after scanning our minds. I displayed emotion upon first seeing Surak, the father of Vulcan civilization. I deeply respect what he accomplished in my planet's history, and it was difficult for me to see him die on Excalbia. Perhaps, in a sense, he was real: since he was created out of my thoughts, he could not be anything but what I expected him to be. — Spock |

ALL OUR YESTERDAYS
On Sarpeidon, Doctor McCoy and I traveled inadvertently to the planet's ice age, five thousand years in the past. I met Zarabeth, a beautiful woman who had been sent into exile by a tyrant. The experience was deeply unsettling for me; I began to revert to the ways of my barbaric, warlike ancestors. I enjoyed the taste of animal flesh, but | could not solve a simple equation. For a brief time I lost myself completely: I fell in love with Zarabeth and nearly killed Doctor McCoy. Parting from Zarabeth was difficult, but we did return to the Enterprise safely. — Spock |

TURNABOUT INTRUDER
The Enterprise crew has traveled throughout the Galaxy and witnessed many strange events. They are trained to know that what may seem impossible often is possible. Such was the case involving Janice Lester and the alien device she found on Camus II. Doctor Lester used the device to switch her life-energy with that of Captain Kirk, so that each inhabited the other's body. Once I was certain of the transfer, I committed myself to doing everything in my power against the "captain." The rest of the crew also rebelled, and the strain on Lester caused the transfer to reverse. — Spock |

Alternate Base Card 40a
MIRROR, MIRROR
Captain Kirk behaved in a most atypical manner after returning from the Halkans' planet. When I ascertained the truth – that he was not my captain, but rather the captain of a parallel Enterprise, from a parallel universe – I helped him and the rest of the landing party return home. Before leaving, Captain Kirk challenged me to lead the revolution that will, eventually, doom the Empire. He even alerted me to a device in his cabin that would help me take command of the Enterprise. The captain's argument was both logical and persuasive, and I have acted upon it. — Spock |

In the early 1960's, Gene Roddenberry had a vision for a new TV series unlike anything that had ever been created before, depicting a multi-ethnic cast of men and women exploring strange new worlds throughout the Galaxy. Despite initial skepticism throughout Hollywood that such a show could work, Roddenberry successfully pitched his concept to Desilu Productions. The initial pilot episode for this show – eventually titled "The Cage" – would star Jeffrey Hunter as Captain Pike. |
2 |
|
On the bridge of the U.S.S. Enterprise, Captain Pike leads his crew, including Vulcan science officer Mister Spock, on a mission in space. Suddenly, the ship's sensors detect a mysterious phenomenon headed their way, yet nothing is visible on the view screen. Navigator Jose Tyler thinks it may just be meteoroids, but the female first officer, Number One, disagrees. The ship goes to Red Alert, and Tyler informs the captain that whatever it is, it's approaching at the speed of light and on a collision course with them. Number One suggests evasive manoeuvres, but Pike calmly orders her to maintain their present course. |
3 |
|
Chief Petty Officer Garison mans the communications board on the bridge of the Enterprise and picks up a radio wave. He tells Captain Pike that it's an old style distress signal from a ship in trouble making a forced landing. Navigator Tyler pinpoints the original [sic] of the distress call as the Talos star group, but Number One notes that there are no Earth ships or colonies that far out. Mister Spock determines that the distress call came from the S.S. Columbia, which disappeared while on a survey mission nearly 18 years earlier. Spock adds that there is one Class-M planet with an Earth-like oxygen atmosphere in the Talos star group. |
4 |
|
Despite concerns from Mister Spock and Number One that there may still be survivors from the S.S. Columbia, Captain Pike keeps the Enterprise on its present course to the Vega colony, in order to tend to their own sick and injured first. Pike then turns over control of the bridge to Number One and heads to his quarters. Pike call Dr. Boice [sic] on his communicator and asks the doctor to join him in his cabin. Weary from previous missions, Pike lies down on his bed and awaits Boyce's arrival. |
5 |
|
Sensing that Captain Pike has been worn down by recent missions in space, Dr. Boyce enters the captain's quarters and begins mixing him a martini. A confused Pike asks Boyce what makes him think he needs a drink. Boyce replies, "Sometimes, a man will tell his bartender things he'll never tell his doctor." Pike feels responsible for the deaths of several crewmen, including his own yeoman, and considers resigning from Starfleet. Pike tells Boyce that's [sic] considering going home to his horse farm, or going into business on Regula as an Orion trader. Boyce remains skeptical and encourages Pike to take a rest leave instead. |
6 |
|
Mister Spock calls Captain Pike's quarters and informs him that a new message has been received from Talos, indicating survivors of the crashed ship, S.S. Columbia. Pike immediately returns to the bridge of the Enterprise, where Chief Petty Officer Garison reads the message: "11 survivors from crash. Gravity and oxygen within limits. Food and water obtainable, but unless…." The message abruptly ends, forcing Pike to make a critical decision – to continue on to the Vega colony or to divert his ship to the Talos star group to rescue the survivors. Pike makes his choice and heads for Talos – time-warp, factor seven. |
7 |
|
While the Enterprise travels to the Talos star group, Yeoman Colt enters the bridge. She bumps into Captain Pike while delivering her daily reports at 0500, and Pike is momentarily unnerved by the beautiful, young officer, who tries to hide her own attraction to him. As Colt departs, Pike comments that he just can't get used to having a woman on the bridge. He realizes that he's just insulted the female Number One, his second in command, and tries to correct himself by noting that Number One is "different", of course." She appears deflated, realizing that Pike does not think of her as a woman. |
8 |
|
As the Enterprise settles into orbit around Talos IV, Captain Pike receives reports on the planet's condition. Readings show an oxygen-nitrogen atmosphere – well within safetly [sic] limits – and gravity of 0.9 of Earth. Pike orders a landing party of six, including himself, Mister Spock, Navigator Jose Tyler, Chief Petty Officer Garison, Dr. Boyce and the ship's geologist. Pike informs a disappointed Number One that she will need to remain behind. Pike explains that, with so little information on the planet below, he will need the ship's most experienced officer to remain on board. |
9 |
|
The landing party from the Enterprise beams down to a canyon on the surface pf Talos IV. Pike and the rest of the landing party observe unusual rock formations and plant life on what appears to be an otherwise desolate planet. Pike hears a strange sound emanating from a blue leafy plant, and when he touches it, the sound dissipates. Mister Spock also touches the plant's blue leaves and smiles upon realizing the unusual cause and effect. Pike, Spock and the other members of the landing party soon move on to explore other parts of the planet. |
10 |
|
The Enterprise landing party on Talos IV soon comes across what appears to be the encampment of survivors from the S.S. Columbia, a ship that had crashed on the planet nearly 18 years earlier. Captain Pike introduces himself to the aging group of scientists, led by Dr; Theodore Haskins, who are thrilled to see men from Earth. Pike assures them that they will see Earth again very soon. Navigator Jose Tyler excitedly tells them that they won't believe how fast they can travel back – that the time barrier has been broken. Suddenly, Tyler's attention shifts…. |
11 |
|
Suddenly, a beautiful, young woman appears from within the encampment of elderly scientists stranded on Talos IV. Dr. Haskins introduces her as Vina, whose parents are dead. Haskins tells Captain Pike that Vina was born almost at the same time they crashed on the planet 18 years ago. Pike appears smitten by the beautiful blonde woman. Meanwhile, in a chamber beneath the planet's surface, three large-headed aliens – Talosians – covertly observe Pike's reaction to Vina. The Talosians silently communicate with each other and appear pleased. |
12 |
|
Captain Pike hails Number One on his communicator, as the rest of the landing party assists the crash survivors from the S.S. Columbia to gather there effects for transport to the Enterprise. Number One asks permission to send down scouting and scientific parties. Suddenly, Vina appears, and Pike pauses. Vina stares at the captain and says, "You appear to be healthy and intelligent, captain… a prime specimen." Pike appears simultaneously smitten and confused. Dr. Haskins asks Pike to forgive Vina's odd choice of words, since she has lived her entire life with a collection of waging scientists. |
13 |
|
Dr. Boyce interrupts Captain Pike's conversation with Vina and Dr. Haskins to make his medical report. Boyce states that the survivors of the crashed S.S. Columbia are in excellent health, almost too good. Haskins notes that there's a reason for their good condition, but they've had doubt as to whether Earth is ready to learn their secret. Haskins suggests that Vina show Pike their secret – that they will accept her judgement. Vina takes Pike by the hand to an area not far from the encampment. Pike fails to see anything. Vina suddenly disappears, along with the rest of the crash survivors and their belongings. |
14 |
|
After Vina, Dr. Haskins and the rest of the survivors of the S.S. Columbia vanish into thin air, a door within the rocky terrain opens up, and two Talosians emerge. One of the Talosians incapacitates Captain Pike with an orange-colored gas. Both of the Talosians hen lift the unconscious captain into the elevator and descend into their underground lair. Navigator Jose Tyler sees Pike in distress and races to his aid with the other members of the landing party, but they are too late to help free their captain from the ruthless grip of the aliens. |
15 |
|
After captain Pike has been captured by the Talosians and taken to their underground lair, the rest of the Enterprise landing party takes action. Mister Spock and Navigator Tyler take aim on the door to the alien elevator housed within the rocky terrain of the planet. They fire their phasers, trying to blast open the elevator door, but nothing seems to work. Spock hails the Enterprise. He informs Number One that there are no survivors of the S.S. Columbia after all. Spock reports, "This is all some sort of trap. We've lost the captain…." |
16 |
|
Captain Pike awakens inside a cell within the Talosians mysterious underground facility. As he gathers himself, Pike realizes that he's locked in just one of several cells, many of which contain strange, if not threatening, alien creatures. Suddenly, a group of the Talosians after the chamber, but they initially say nothing, merely staring at Pike, who tries to communicate with them. |
17 |
|
"My name is Christopher Pike, commander of the space vehicle Enterprise from the stellar group at the other end of this galaxy. Our intentions are peaceful. Can you understand me?" questions Pike. The Talosians telepathically speak to each other. One of the aliens tells the Magistrate, their apparent leader, that the intelligence of the specimen is shockingly limited. The Magistrate replies, "This is no surprise, since his vessel was baited here so easily with a simulated message…. It is only now beginning to suspect that the survivors and encampment were a simple illusion we placed in their minds." |
18 |
|
As the Talosians watch from outside his cell, Captain Pike tests the strength of the walls around him. Pike notes, "There's a way out of any cage, and I'll find it." The Magistrate comments to his allies, "Despite its frustration, the creature appears more adaptable than our specimens from other planets. We can soon begin the experiment." Upon hearing the Magistrate's words, Pike looks on with a questioning, if not concerned, look. His situation appears more desperate then [sic] even he originally believed. |
19 |
|
Back on the Enterprise, the ship's officers convene to discuss their predicament at Talos IV and the loss of Captain Pike. "The inhabitants of this planet must live deep underground… probably manufacture food and other needs down there" asserts Spock, adding that the surface of the planet is too barren to support life. Number One notes that they were victims of an illusion, that the Talosians made them see just what they wanted them to see, human beings surviving with dignity and bravery. |
20 |
|
Dr. Boyce stresses the danger of their situation, "The inhabitants of this planet can read our minds. They can create illusions out of a person's own thoughts, memories and experiences – even out of a person;s own desires…." Spock suggests that the Talosians may have taken the captain to find out how Earth people are put together, or for other reasons. Navigator Tyler insists that they need to act fast to save the captain, and that they can transfer the ship's power to the surface to blast their way into the Talosians' lair. Number One agrees with Tyler, and they return to the planet's surface to blast through the metal doors. |
21 |
|
As the crew of the Enterprise formulates a plan to rescue him, Captain Pike remains in a cell beneath the surface of Talos IV, trying to figure out a way to escape. Meanwhile, the Talosian Magistrate and one of his chief associates monitor Pike's thoughts and actions. They are impressed by Pike's excellent memory capacity. The Magistrate reads most strongly a recent death struggle in Pike's mind, in which he fought to save his own life. The Magistrate indicates they will use that memory as a starting point for their experiments on him, but adding Vina for Pike to protect. |
22 |
|
The Talosians create an illusion in which Captain Pike is back on Rigel VII, the site of a recent death struggle pulled from his memory. In this illusion, however, Vina is inserted as a damsel in distress – someone for Pike to protect. Pike resists the illusion, believing that he must still be in his cell on Talos IV. He tries to reason with Vina, to understand what's happening and why it's her and not some other woman. She ignores his questions and urges him to go along with the illusion in which they are on grave danger on another world. |
23 |
|
As the illusion continues in which Captain Pike and Vina are on Rigel VII, a menacing, male Kalar warrior enters the scene. Vina pleads with Pike to attack the brute, to kill him when he's not looking. Pike still resists, believing it all to be a dream. He tells Vina that [he] won't play along, that he's not an animal performing for it's supper. Vina somehow finally gets through to him, convincing Pike the he will still feel and experience everything as though it were real. As the Kalar warrior approaches, Pike seeks to protect Vina and prepares for a fight. Pike grabs a mace and a shield to battle the Kalar. |
24 |
|
Captain Pike battles a Kalar warrior in the illusion of being on Rigel VII. Pike momentarily gains the upper hand, knocking the Kalar off his feet. Pike tries to get Vina to safety, but the Kalar comes after them, knocking Pike off a ledge. The Kalar grabs Vina, who screams in terror. Pike finds a knife and hurls it into the back of the giant warrior, who releases Vina, loses his balance and falls off the ledge. Pike acts quickly by grabbing the end of a spear and impaling the falling Kalar. The warrior is dead, and the illusion ends. |
25 |
|
The illusion of Pike and Vina on Rigel VII comes to an end, and the two humans find themselves once again inside Pike's cell within the Talosians' underground compound. After witnessing the illusion, the Talosian Magistrate and his colleagues silently depart, leaving Pike to question Vina about her role in his abduction. Pike wants to know why she's there and whether she is real. Vina replies that she's there to please him and that she's as real as he wants her to be. Pike refuses to accept those answers. |
26 |
|
Pike tries to figure out why the Talosians are using Vina in the illusions culled from his own memory. He notes, "I've never met you before. I never even imagined you." Vina replies, "Perhaps they made me out of dreams you've forgotten." Pike strives for answers, while Vina tries to steer PIke's thoughts in a different direction, appealing to his sense of desire and offering him the chance to have anything or any woman he's ever imagined. "Let me…please you," offers Vina. Pike resists her overtures and seeks to find ways to keep the Talosians from using his thoughts against him. |
27 |
|
Number One leads a landing party to the surface of Talos IV in an effort to rescue Captain Pike. The landing party sets up a phaser cannon using power diverted from the Enterprise to blow open the metal doors leading into the Talosians' underground complex. Despite the extreme energy blast from the phaser cannon, the metal doors appear to remain unaffected. In disbelief, Number One states, "The top of that knoll should have been sheared off the first second…." Dr. Boyce adds, "Their power of illusion is so great we can't be sure of anything we do, anything we see…." |
28 |
|
"How far can they control my mind?" Pike asks, in reference to the Talosians. "If I tell you, then will you pick some dream you've had and let me live to with you?" queries Vina. "Perhaps," replies Pike. Vina goes on to tell Pike that the Talosians can't make you do anything you don;t want to do, but they try to trick you with their illusions and punish you if you;re not cooperative. Vina further explains that the Talosians used to live on their planet's surface thousands of centuries ago, before war destroyed everything. Only now is the planet's surface beginning to support life again. |
29 |
|
Captain Pike correctly asserts that when the Talosians were forced underground after their planet's surface was no longer habitable, they developed their mental powers. Vina explains, "But they found it's a trap, like a narcotic, because when dreams become more important than reality, you give up travel, building, creating…. You;re better than a theater to them. They create an illusion for you. They watch you react, feel your emotions." |
30 |
|
When Vina reveals that the Talosians have brought back numerous specimens from all over this part of the Galaxy, Captain Pike correctly deduces that the Talosians need more than one of each specimen in order to breed. Pike realizes that they will need a pair of humans, but he is not yet convinced that Vina is a real woman. She tries to convince him that she is as real and as human as he is, and that they are like Adam and Eve. Suddenly, the Magistrate appears and cuts off their conversation. The Talosian leader mentally punishes her, and suddenly, she disappears from Pike's cell. |
31 |
|
Alone in his cell, Captain Pike checks the integrity of the walls around him, trying to find any weakness that may help him escape. Suddenly, he realizes it, the Talosians us a small opening in the cell to deposit a vial containing a nourishing protein complex for Pike to drink. "If the form and color is not appealing, it can appear as any food you wish to visualize," remarks the Magistrate. |
32 |
|
When Captain Pike questions what will happen if he chooses to starve himself, the magistrate remarks, "You overlook the unpleasant alternative punishment." The Talosian the creates a new illusion causing PIke to feel sever agony in a fiery pit – a scene from a fable Pike one heard as a child, culled from his memory. Pike asks why the Talosians don't simply put irresistible hunger in his mind, but correctly assumes that would overstep their mental powers. Angered by Pike's irreverence, the Magistrate threatens worse punishment. Pike relents and consumes the liquid. |

After drinking the nourishing protein complex provided by the Talosians, Captain Pike fills his mind with hate, wanting to get his hands around the Magistrates neck. He then hurls himself into the glass window of his cell, causing the startled Magistrate to step back in fear. Pike finds the alien's response very interesting and begins to sense that the Talosians may not be able to read his mind when it's filled with primitive emotions. The Magistrate changes the subject by discussing the crash of the S.S. Columbia and its see survivor – Vina. |
34 |
|
"As you've conjectured." the Magistrate tell Captain Pike, "an Earth vessel did crash on our planet, but with only a single survivor…. We repaired the survivor's injuries, and found the species interesting…. It became necessary to attract a mate…. This is necessary in order to perpetuate the species." Pike angrily responds that it must be the Talosians' intention ultimately to build an entire human community, and he chastises the Magistrate for punishing Vina, rather than himself. The Magistrate is pleased by PIke's attitude and adds, "First, an emotional protectiveness. Now, one of sympathy…. Excellent." |
35 |
|
Captain Pike finds himself in a new illusion – this time back home at his farm on Earth, with Vina now playing the role of his wife. Pike's initial resistance to playing along with the charade softens when we [sic] sees one of his favorite horses, Tango. Pike clearly enjoys seeing Tango. He starts to apologise for not having any sugar cubes, but quickly catches himself when realizing that there actually is sugar in his jacket pocket. Pike remarks to Vina, "They think of everything, don't they?" Vina steers the conversation away from what the Talosians are doing to them and tries to get Pike simply to enjoy the experience of his being home again. |
36 |
|
Captain Pike tells Vina that it's funny – about 24 hours earlier, he was telling the ship's doctor how much he wanted something not very different from what they have in this current illusion – escape from reality, life with no frustrations, no responsibilities. But now that he has it, Pike understands the doctor's advice. Notwithstanding Vina's attempts to divert the conversation by enticing Pike with little white chicken/tuna sandwiches that are his mother's recipe, the captain elaborates. "Because you either live life, bruises, skinned knees and all, or you turn your back on it and start dying." |
37 |
|
Vina grows agitated by Pike's continued resistance to playing along with the current illusion. Pike notes, "We're not here. Neither of us. We're in a menagerie, a cage." He starts to get through to her, and Vina confirms Pike's suspicions that the Talosians can't read through primitive thoughts, like hate. She tells him that it's impossible to keep it up long enough – she's tried. And now the Talosians "own" her. They had her thoughts and dreams for the perfect man, and that's how they chose Pike. She can't help but love him, and they expect him to love her back. |
38 |
|
Vina begins to understand why none of the illusions so far have been effective on Pike. She suddenly has an epiphany: "A person's strongest dreams are about what he can't do. Yes, a ships's captain, always having to be so formal, so decent and honest and proper. You must wonder what it must be like to forget all that." As the Talosians secretly watch the interaction between Vina and Pike, they take her words literally and project Pike into a new illusion – this time in an unfamiliar scenario, as an Orion slave trader, just as he had suggested to Dr. Boyce a day earlier when he talked about leaving Starfleet for a new career. |
39 |
|
"Nice place you have here, Mr. Pike," comments a space officer enjoying the show put on by Vina, who has been transformed into an Orion slave performing in a new illusion created by the Talosians. The space officer adds, "Funny how they are on this planet … actually like being taken advantage of," referring to the seductive, Orion slave women. Unlike the previous illusions created by the Talosians, this one has Captain Pike inserted into an entirely unfamiliar situation with circumstances he can't control or predict. Pike appears unnerved, rather than enticed. |
40 |
|
Captain Pike, now forced to play the part of an Orion slave trader in a new illusion perpetrated by the Talosians, suddenly realizes that the green-skinned woman performing before him is Vina. No longer is she presented by the Talosians as a damsel in distress for him to protect, or his wholesome, sandwich-making wife back home on Earth. The Talosians have pulled a more dangerous image from Pike's dreams. The situation makes Pike increasingly uncomfortable. |
41 |
|
"Suppose you had all of space to choose from, and this was only one small sample….," remarks the space officer. "Wouldn't you say it was worth a man's soul?" adds the trader sitting with Pike and the other man. Captain Pike continues to grow increasingly uncomfortable as the two other men revel in the dance performance by Vina, who appears as a green-skinned Orion slave in this new illusion. Finally, Pike can't take it any longer and storms out. |
42 |
|
Captain Pike dashes out of the club where Vina has been dancing as a green-skinned Orion slave. The landscape quickly changes, however, as Pike now finds himself inside a cave-like area with no exit. Pike searches for a way out, to no avail. Suddenly, Vina appears, still as an Orion – seductive and irresistible. It's a situation that Pike has never faced before, and he doesn't know what to do. |
43 |
|
Back on the Enterprise, Number One informs the landing party that their plan is to transport down inside the Talosian community. Mister Spock, however, notes that if their measurements and readings are merely illusions also, they might find themselves materializing inside solid rock. Number One adds that nothing will be said if any of them want to back out of the mission. All of them remain committed to the mission, and the transporter room crew prepares to beam them down. |
44 |
|
The six members of the landing party, including Number One, Mister Spock, Yeoman Colt, Navigator Tyler, Chief Petty Officer Garison and the ship's geologist, stand on the transporter platform and prepare to beam down inside the Talosian's underground complex to rescue Captain Pike. The transporter crew activates the controls, but only the two women – Number One and Yeoman Colt – are beamed away. The me remain on board the Enterprise. Mister Spock exclaims, "The women!" Spock realizes that they've been manipulated again by the Talosians' power of illusion. |
45 |
|
Number One and Yeoman Colt materialize inside Captain Pike's cell within the Talosians' underground complex. They turn to see Captain Pike in a trance-like state, with Vina by his side, still performing in their own minds the roles created by the Talosians with Pike as an Orion slave trader and Vina as a green-skinned Orion dancer. Number One turns, sees Pike and exclaims, "Captain!" which disrupts the illusion. Vina cries, "No, let me finish!" Pike slowly returns to [the] reality of being inside his cell and realizing that the illusion has ended. |
46 |
|
Number One and Yeoman Colt are initially confused that they were the only ones transported down – they had been among a landing party of six. Vina senses the truth of the situation – that the Talosians intend to use the two women from the Enterprise as alternatives to create a colony of humans. Vina declares, "It's not fair: You don't need them." Pike grabs the women's phasers, but both appear to be non-functioning, despite being fully charged before they transported off the ship. Number One ten checks her communicator, which also appears to be dead. |
47 |
|
Captain Pike tells Number One not to say anything, as he hatches an escape plan. He drops their seemingly useless phasers on the floor by the door to his cell and declares, "I'm filling my mind with a picture of beating their huge, misshapen heads to pulp! Thoughts so primitive they block out everything else. I'm filling my mind with hate!" Vina tries to cal him, asking him how long he thinks he can realistically block the Talosians from reading his thoughts. Yeoman Colt tells Vina to leave Pike alone. "He doesn't need you. He's already picked me," asserts Vina. |
48 |
|
Yeoman Colt becomes confuse when Vina say that Captain Pike ha already picked her. Colt asks, "Picked her? For what? I don't understand." Vina snaps back, "Now there's a fine choice for intelligent offspring." Colt begins to piece it together. "Offspring? As in children?" she queries. Number One adds, "Offspring, as in Adam," referring to Pike, "is that it?" Vina snipes, "You're no better choice. They'd have more luck crossing him with a computer." |
49 |
|
The Magistrate addresses Captain Pike, "Since you resist the present specimen, you now have a selection." Pike continues filling his mind with hate. "I'll break out of this zoo somehow and get to you. Is you blood red like ours? I'm going to find out!" exclaims Pike. The Magistrate matter-of-factly points out the favorable qualities of the other two women. He starts by noting that Number One ha the superior mind and would produce highly intelligent children. "Although she seems to lack emotion, this is largely a pretence. She often has fantasies involving you," adds the Magistrate. |
50 |
|
"All I want to do is get my hands on you. Can you read these thoughts? Images of hate, killing," Pike directs at the Magistrate, who ignores the captain. The Talosian notes the favorable qualities of Yeoman Colt. "The other new arrival has considered you unreachable, but is now realizing this has changed. The factors in her favor are youth and strength, plus unusually strong female drives." Colt runs her head, embarrassed by the assessment from the alien, despite its truth. Captain Pike's anger boils over. He's disgusted by the Magistrate. |
51 |
|
Overcome by his intense hatred of the Talosians and using that intensity to block them from reading his mind, Captain Pike declares, "You'll find my thoughts more interesting. Thoughts so primitive you can't understand. Emotions so…." The Magistrate interrupts Pike by punishing him telepathically. As Pike writhes in pain, the Magistrate noes, "Wrong thinking is punishable. Right thinking will be as quickly rewarded. You will find it an effective combination." As the Talosian leader departs, Pike tells Number One and Yeoman Colt not to help him, that he has to concentrate – that they can't read through hate. |
52 |
|
With Captain Pike, Number One and Yeoman Colt now presumed lost, Mister Spock assumes command of the Enterprise. Spock orders Navigator Jose Tyler to open a ship-wide channel. "We've no choice now but to consider the safety of this vessel and the remainder of the crew. We're leaving. All decks prepare for hyper-drive, time-warp factor…." Just then, the ship's controls go dead. Spock tells the engine room, "Switch to rockets, we're blasting out!' But that fails, too. Tyler informs Spock that every system is fading out. The Enterprise is effectively dead in space. |
53 |
|
As Captain Pike, Number One, Yeoman Colt and Vina appear to be asleep or resting inside their cell, the Magistrate tries to go unnoticed upon emerging from the elevator doorway. The Magistrate intends to secretly open the passage into the cell to remove the two phasers that Pike dropped on the floor. However, it's all a carefully crafted ruse by Pike, who continues to shield his thoughts from the Talosians with a wall of hatred in his mind. |
54 |
|
The Magistrate quietly and carefully opens the small door into Captain Pike's cell in an effort to remove the two phasers lying nearby on the floor. Unable to read Pike's hate-filled mind, the Talosian leader is unaware that Pika has set a trap with the two phasers as the bait. Pike pretends to be asleep, but as soon as the Magistrate reaches in, Pike leaps forward, grabs the Talosian and wraps his hands around the alien's neck. |
55 |
|
With his hands tightly gripped around the Magistrate's neck, Captain Pike angrily says, "Now you hold still or I'l break…." Vina interrupts, telling Pike not to hurt him, that the Talosians don;t mean to be evil. Pike knows better, having witnessed first-hand what the aliens are capable of. The Magistrate suddenly creates an illusion of himself as a monstrous, fanged beast, but Pike doesn't fall for it. Gripping the alien's neck ever tighter, Pike commands, "You stop this illusion or i'll twist your head off!" The alien complies. Pike adds, "You try one more illusion, you try anything at all, and I'll break your neck." |
56 |
|
As Captain Pike maintains his grip around the Magistrate's neck, the alien leader says, "Your ship…. Release me, or will [sic] destroy it." Meanwhile, back aboard the Enterprise, Mister Spock leads the crew in a vain effort to restore the ship's systems. Nothing works. Suddenly, the ship's computer activates, as it appears the Talismans are collecting all the information stored within the vessel. Spock senses that they may have waited too long and that the Talosians intend to destroy them. |
57 |
|
Vina notes, "He's not bluffing, captain. With illusion, they can make your crew work the wrong controls or push any button it takes to destroy your ship." Captain Pike gambles that the Magistrate is too intelligent to kill for no reason at all. He passes off the alien leader to Number One, grabs one of the phasers and attempts to fire it at the window of the cell. Nothing happens. Pike then fires the other phaser, and again, nothing happens, not even after he adults it to its highest setting. |
58 |
|
When his phasers appear to fail, Captain Pike turns his attention back to the Magistrate and points one of the weapons at the alien's head. I'm willing to bet you've created an illusion this laser is empty. I think it just blasted a hole in that window and you're keeping us from seeing it. You want me to test my theory out on your head?!" The Magistrate relents, ending the illusion and revealing a massive hole in the window. Pike holds the Magistrate once again at gunpoint and then leads the group out of the cell, into the elevator and to the surface of the planet. |
59 |
|
Upon reaching the surface of Talos IV, Captain Pike orders Number One to contact the Enterprise. As she opens her communicator, Number One notes that the elevator doorway and its rocky surroundings were, in fact, destroyed by the ships laser cannon. "They kept us from seeing this, too. We cut through and never knew it." she notes. Number One's communicator fails to function. Pike insists that the Magistrate allow them to contact their ship. |
60 |
|
The Talosian Magistrate smugly announces to Captain Pike, "As you see, your attempt to escape accomplished nothing…. You are now on the surface, where we wished you to be. With the female of your choice, you will now begin carefully guided lives…. To help you reclaim the planet's surface, our zoological gardens will furnish a variety of plant life…. Since our lifespan is many times yours, we have time to evolve you into a society trained to serve as artisans, technicians…." |
61 |
|
Despite his heroic efforts to defeat the Talosians, Captain Pike realizes there is no escape. He offers to remain with Vina, if the Magistrate will return Number One and Yeoman Colt to the Enterprise and assure the safe departure of his ship. Number One sets her phaser to build up an overload, a forced chamber explosion. She tells the Magistrate, "It's wrong to create a whole race of human to live as slaves." The Magistrate grows nervous and asks, "Is this a deception? DO you intend to destroy yourselves?" |
62 |
|
As Number One sets her phaser on overload, which wall cause all of them to be killed, Captain Pike tells Vina that there's still time for her to get underground, to safety. Pike angrily pushes her towards the entrance to the underground elevator and tells her to go. He then turns to the Magistrate and adds, "Just to show you how primitive humans are, Talosian, you go with her." Vina stops and tells Pike, "If you all think it's this important, then I can't go either. I suppose if they have one human being, they might try again." |
63 |
|
Two more Talosians emerge onto the planet's surface, Number One takes her phaser off overload. Telepathically, the Magistrate then assimilates knowledge of humans gathered from the Enterprise's computer records. When finished, the Magistrate states, "We had not believed this possible. The customs and history of your race show a unique hatred of captivity. Even when it's pleasant and benevolent, you prefer death. This makes you too violent and dangerous a species for our needs." They are now free to return to their ship. |
64 |
|
Disgusted by the Talosian's treatment of himself and his crew, all of whom are now free to go, Captain Pike just shakes his head and states, "And that's it. No apologies. You captured one of us. Threatened all of us…." The Talosians merely reply, "Your unsuitability has condemned the Talosian race to eventual death…. No other specimen has shown your adaptability. You were our last hope." Pike asks, "Wouldn't some form of trade, mutual cooperation….? The Magistrate concludes, "Your race would learn our power of illusion and destroy itself, too." |
65 |
|
Power suddenly returns to the Enterprise, and the helm now responds to controls. The transporter functions properly again. Mister Spock and Chief Petty Officer Garison look on. Yeoman Colt beams back aboard the ship, followed immediately by Number One. But where is Captain Pike?! |
66 |
|
Vina tells Captain Pike that she cannot leave with him. After Yeoman Colt and Number One return to the Enterprise, the Talosians reveal Vina's true appearance. "You see why I can't go with you…. They found me in the wreckage, [a] dying…lump of flesh. They rebuilt me. Everything works, but they had never seen a human. They had no guide for putting me back together." The Magistrate adds, "It was necessary to convince you that [her] desire to stay is an honest one." |
67 |
|
After seeing Vina's true appearance, Captain Pike understands why Vina has chosen to remain on Talos IV. Pike asserts, "You'll give her back her illusion of beauty." "And more," the Magistrate replies. Pike turns to see Vina young and beautiful again, but her illusion now includes a doppelgänger of Pike himself as her consort. The Magistrate adds, "She has an illusion, and you have reality. May you find your way as pleasant." Vina and her illusion of Pike then descend into the Talosian's underground complex. |
68 |
|
Aboard the Enterprise, the transporter chief informs Mister Spock that the system is coming on again. Captain Pike then beams back to the ship, where he is greeted by Yeoman Colt and Number One. The two women ask what's happened to Vina. Pike replies that Vina is not coming with them and that he agreed with her reasons. Pike then heads for the bridge to resume travelling to the Vega colony, their destination before diverting to Talos IV. |
69 |
|
Dr. Boyce intercepts Captain Pike as he enters the bridge. Pike insists he feels fine and remarks, "You recommended rest and a change of pace…. I've even been home." Pike then bumps into Yeoman Colt. Flustered, Pike begins to chew out his female yeoman, until he realizes that she has his reports, once again on time. Colt asks Pike who he would have chosen as his "Eve" but Number One cuts her off. Colt the departs the bridge, without an answer to her question. |
70 |
|
After dismissing questions about "Adam and Eve" from Navigator Tyler and Dr. Boyce, Captain Pike is set to leave the Talos star system. Sitting in his captain's chair aboard the bridge, Pike barks out, "What are we running here, a cadet ship, Number One? Are we ready or not?" Number One replies that all decks are ready. "Engage!" orders Pike. The Enterprise warps towards its next destination in space. |

MM8 |
|
Before departing the transporter room, Kirk orders Mirror Spock to have the transporter circuits checked, which will buy some needed time for the landing party to conviene in sickbay to figure out what's going on and how to deal with their predicament in this parallel universe. |
MM9 |
|
McCoy notes that nealr everything in sickbay is mixed up and out of place. Scotty asserts that the ion storm caused a surge of power in the transporter beam, resulting in their materializing in this parallel universe.

MM15 |
|
Mirror Spock enters the bridge and orders Mirror Sulu to lock phasers on the Halkan planet. Kirk forestalls the order and asks Uhura to contact the Halkan council again. Mirror Spock reminds Kirk that the Halkans have already refused the Empire and that command procedure dictates setting the customary example – annihilation. |
MM16 |
|
In a serious breach of protocol, Kirk gives Tharn, the leader of the Halkan Councl, twelve hours to reconsider his position or face annihilation.

Mirror Sulu, armed with a dagger, tries to murder Mirror Spock and Kirk in order to assune command of the Enterprise. However, Kirk delivers two swift karate chops and knocks Mirror Sulu unconscious. |
MM42 |
|
Kirk, Scotty and Uhura head to the the transporter room, while McCoy tends to Mirror Spock. McCoy insists that he'll catch up with the others in time. McCoy revives Mirror Spock, who then overpowers the doctor and performs a Vulcan mind-meld on him. Mirror Spock now understands the truth of the strange behaviour of Kirk and the others. |
MM43 |
|
Marlena waits in the transporter room for Kirk, who assures Scotty and Uhura that Marlena is a friend. Kirk orders Scotty to activate the transporter, while Marlena insists that she come with them. Kirk refuses her request, but she does not understand his motives. |
MM44 |
|
Marlena draws her phaser, as Kirk and Scotty tend to the trasporter controls. Kirk tries to reason with her, noting that is she kills them, none of them will get away. Suddenly, Uhura lunges forward and disarms Marlena. Kirk grows increasingly concerned that McCoy has yet to arrive. |
MM45 |
|
With five minutes to spare, Scotty notes that the power has been cut to the transporter. Kirk suggests going to auxiliary power, but Scotty can't connect the automatic transporter settings. Scotty offers to remain behind to operate the controls, but Kirk orders him to the transporter chamber, along with Uhura. |
MM46 |
|
Mirror Spock arrives with McCoy and restores power to the main transporter circuits. Kirk tells Mirror Spock that he is a man of integrity in both universes. Mirror Spock prepares to operate the controls. He insists that he needs his own captain back and that Kirk must return to his own universe. |
MM47 |
|
With little more than two minutes to spare, Kirk tries to reason with Mirror Spock at the futility of the Empire which, in his opinion, is illogical. "One man cannot summon the future." notes Mirror Spock. "But one man can change the present," replies Kirk, who implores Mirror Spock to spare the Halkans and make it stick. |
MM48 |
|
Moments before his departure, Kirk tells Mirror Spock that there is a device in his cabin that will make him invincible. "In every revolution, there's one man with a vision," adds Kirk. Mirror Spock replies, "Captain Kirk, I shall consider it," and then beams Kirk, Scotty, McCoy and Uhura back to theor own Enterprise. |
MM49 |
|
On the bridge of the Enterprise, Kirk asks Spock how he was able to identify their barbarian counterparts so quickly. Spock replies that it was far easier for Kirk, Scotty, McCoy and Uhura to behave like barbarians than for their counterparts to behave in a civilized manner. McCoy comments that he liked Spock better with a beard. |
MM50 |
|
Lt. Marlena Moreau arrives on the bridge of the Entreprise. Kirk, Scotty, McCoy and Uhura all look at her in curious amazement, having previously met her Mirror universe counterpart. Spock questions Kirk's reaction to the pretty, young lieutenant. Kirk simply replies that she seems like a likeable girl, and that they could become friends. |
