Arriving
at the planet Deneva, home of Kirk's only brother Sam and his familly,
the U.S.S. Enterprise picks up a transmission from a Denevan pilot who
has steered his craft into the sun to destroy some unknown menace.
Beaming down to the planet, Kirk finds his brother dead and Sam's wife
in a fatal condition. Their only son, Peter, survives informing the
landing party of what has occurred. It seems that Deneva has been
infested with large, amoeba-like aliens that attack humans and
intertwine their tentacles with the body's nervous system. They can
move short distances through the air and use excruciating pain as a
means of controlling their victims.
When Spock is attacked by one of the creatures, he uses his Vulcan mind
control to overcome the pain and return to duty. However, a cure must
be found; they must find a way to kill the parasite without harming its
host.
Kirk remembers the pilot that flew into the sun and sugests that they
may be sensitive to intense light. Spock volunteers to be McCoy's test
patient and the doctor bombards him with the light beams so strong that
the Vulcan is blinded. Too late, the doctor realizes that only
ultraviolet light is needed to kill the creatures.
Kirk sets off ultraviolet satellite flares over the planet Deneva,
freeing its people from the parasites. Fortunately, Spock's blindness
is temporary, due to a second eyelid developed by Vulcans to protect
their eyes from the harsh sun on planet Vulcan. |

It's too bad
they
killed off Sam, it would have
been very interesting to learn more about the
Kirk family. Actually, his name was George
Samuel Kirk; only Jim called him Sam probably
because their dad was named George also.

It would be
interesting to read the story
of how the aliens came to Deneva and how
they began to take over.
Anybody want to write it?

It's very
obvious
there was almost no money in
the budget to create these aliens. I think they went
to the local joke shop and bought some fake vomit!

A great
example of
why Kirk is the
best captain in Starfleet.
He can't accept the 'no win' scenario!
Yes, I'm aware it's a TV show and not real life.

This was a
rather
cheap gimmick to increase
the drama at the end of the episode, but it does
provide some great dialogue between the 3 friends.
Captain

Great
dialogue!!

Funny
dialogue to
end this episode and
to bring to a close the first season.
