Reactions and Reviews

Kirk and McCoy go in search of a missing survey party and find a planet of clones. The leader puts Kirk into suspended animation when he discovers this secret, leaving McCoy to solve the mystery with the help of a weakening woman due for a new body; she ends up sacrificing herself to convince the leader that the Federation do not intend to conquer them. [1]

"Companion Four" was delightfully spooky, and eerily familiar...finally discovered why. Migod, a world peopled by Edgar Allen Poe characters! Aha, sneaky! McCoy's solution was a good one, although the denouement was something of a letdown, and didn't really need to be there... [2]
