Fabulous episode. I gave it a 5. Dealing with madness always makes for an interesting plot line. Good acting all around. Illusions and what not. It's always fascinating when Scotty is in command of the Enterprise. Loved it.

A truly great episode. A score of 5++. An interesting feature of this episode is the use of the code word to beam up. A great idea that was never used again. It also featured the delicious Yvonne Craig, who was Batgirl in the Batman series.

A good ep, featuring Keye Luke from the original Kung Fu tv series and "batgirl" Yvonne Craig as the insane, yet sultry Orion, Marta. Good humor mixed with the shapeshifting that Garth performs in an effort to win a battle of wits and gain access to the Enterprise is worth repeat viewings.

Steve Ihnat did a great job of playing a genius that crossed the line into madness. They say that there is a thin line between genius and madness and this episode showed that well.

 

And let us not forget Yvonne Craig doing a fantastic job as Marta, some of the best work she ever did. And of course she looked incredibly sexy doing it. What man could resist her and why would he want to? I know I couldn't :nono:
