Reactions and Reviews
Post-Babel, Spock is furious with McCoy for not taking proper care of Kirk. McCoy sends them down for recuperation during the conference, and the Orion blood-mate of the spy who committed suicide goes after Kirk. Spock sets himself up as bait instead as they try to uncover the full Orion plot. Spock is held hostage, Kirk trades places, Spock overpowers his guards to escape and reveal the plot while the Orion tortures Kirk, and McCoy arrives with the cavalry to tend Kirk. Corridan is admitted, and Sarek asks Kirk to help him get to know his son on the return journey. Has some good points, including McCoy trying to fight his own jealousy of the friendship between Kirk and Spock, but flawed by a decidedly overprotective and overemotional Spock. [1]
