Poor Scotty. He never gets to score.

The closest he ever got was Uhura in ST-V.

Which is also quite worthy, IMO. :dude:

Poor Scotty. Lost another one....lol.....no wonder he drinks..... :dude:

 

Anther so-so season 3 episode. The consiousness of an entire race roaming around the galaxy for lord knows how long and they pick poor Mira to inhabit. Pretty contrived solution too having the pressure chamber kill the aliens.

Average. It could've done without the strange voice effects that "afflicted" victims of the Zetar. I did however enjoy the romance story between Scotty and Lt. Romaine. :nono:

The episode is terrible. It had Scotty acting like he had a school boy hormonal crush, and it was so sickeningly sweet that it made my fillings hurt. Of course look at who wrote it, Shari Lewis, as in Shari and Lambchop. Paramount was either really hard up for a script or wanted an episode nearly as bad as Spock's Brain to kill off the show. Episodes of this caliber along with the 10pm time slot killed a great show.

I'm giving it a 2.

 

It's never mentioned among the worst like 'Spock's Brain' however for me its running neck and neck for the worst episode.
