youbroughtheryouRiker 2 Posted December 7, 2006 Interesting episode. Nice dichotomy of the human psyche. And at least the late-occurring problem made sense as to how it occurred. It was an ok episode. Nice performance from Shatner. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kor37 9 Posted December 7, 2006 Another great first season episode. Shatner did a wonderful job portraying the good and bad sides of Kirk. The rape scene with Rand was also very risque for the time. I'm surprised they got away with it on TV. I don't remember but has anybody ever figured out why they just didn't send a shuttle down to get the stranded crewmen?

GhostofMajorHayes 10 Posted September 16, 2007 A tale of two Kirks, quite simply a great ep. :) Cool story that makes a person think about the bad that resides in all of us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rob39874 0 Posted May 28, 2008 This was a ok episode but I thought there could have been a bit more evil in the evil side of Kirk something that was not portrayed much Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stephen of Borg 2 Posted October 18, 2008 there is no denying it, Shatner's the man! Some of the performance by Bill comes off as funny, but it is entertaining none-the-less. Who can forget the cry "I want to live!!! I want to live!!!" Awesome, 5 stars "I'm Captain Kirk!!!!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
