And so I finish my last review of The Original Series. I give this one a three. REALLY good right up until we learn what the actual truth was. At first I was thinking a mirage of death or something, but they never seemed to think they had died. Ah well. From there though, it fell apart, and brought it down to a 3. Didn't think Kirk's continued affection for Odona was all that believable either. Next....hopefully I'll get the last disc of TOS with special features.....but after that....The Animated Series. *ominous music*

This episode was a real stinker. Another "we ran out of money this week" episode. The plot was ludicrous and the solution over-simplified. Ranks right up there with "Spock's Brain".

A good ep. I thought it was intriguing to see a planet free of disease and death that wanted to kidnap a person so that they could infect the populace with a virulent disease in an effort at population control. Neat and clever premise.
