Reactions and Reviews
Shortly after McCoy's reactivation and the V'Ger affair, the doctor is sent on loan to an archaeological team - which then abandons him for dead in a flooded city. Kirk agonizes over having dragged McCoy away from home and to his death. It is Spock who urges optimism, and Chekov who finally finds the doctor, who has survived by using himself as bait to kill and eat the local blood-sucking fauna. Excellent characterization all around and a good combination of adventure story and relationship dilemma.[1]
