The Mark of Gideon (TOS S03E16)

May 27, 2018

Kirk is beaming down to Gideon for some negotiations. Kirk beams away from the Enterprise to end up on an empty Enterprise.

Notes

Another Kirk focused episode. I am wondering if it will be the standard Kirk episode where Kirk uses his ingenuity to fix the problem. The voiceover by Kirk makes it so.

Spock does get a good chunk of the episode. His logic is used to find a solution while working with the politicians of the planet Gideon.

Grumbly Scotty is hilarious.

There's enough food on the Enterprise to feed a crew of 430 for five years. That's a lot of food.

Creepy green faces watch Kirk seduce yet-another-alien woman.

A viewing port and then there were creepy green faced people again.

A strange episode. I didn't really like it.
