Sent to the
planet Capella IV to negotiate a mining treaty, Kirk and a party beam
to the surface. They find the Capellans to be warlike and
tradition-bound people. Kirk also finds that a Klingon agent, Kras, has
gotten there before them and established an agreement with some of the
planet's rebels who kill their leader, Akaar, and take over. Akaar's
widow, Eleen, is willing to forfeit her life, as custom demands,
because she carries the child that will be the next leader, or Teer.
Kirk
convinces her to escape and they hide in the hills beyond the city.
While the landing party evades pursuit, a Klingon warbird prevents the
U.S.S. Enterprise from helping its people.
When
Eleen goes into labor, McCoy delivers the child. Eleen, however, hits
the doctor over the head with a rock, knocking him out, and returns to
the Capellans. She tells them that the landing party and the child are
dead. The Klingon decides this is the time to take control and begins
to attack the Capellans.
Arriving
on the scene, Kirk and Spock try to use primitive bows and arrows on
the Klingons which wound, but do not stop. Maab, the new Teer, draws
the Klingon fire while his lieutenant kills him. Eleen names her son
Leonard James Akaar, after Kirk and McCoy, and as her son's regent
until he comes of age, signs the mining treaty with the Federation. |

This voice

uncredited in this episode but
I think it sounds like the Vulcan Space Central guy
from 'Amok Time' where credit is given to a

Calm down
Scotty,
Sulu's only trying to help.
Dr. McCoy
A variation
of
McCoy's famous line:
"I'm a doctor not a ... "
And it got me to thinking... do they have escalators
in the 23rd century?? Then I remembered a scene
in Star Trek: The Motion Picture when Kirk meets
Cmdr. Sonak at Starfleet HQ... they ride up an
escalator together!!
Yes, I know... I have WAY too much free time...
