Psionic Abilities, McCoy, Torturing The Crew
Season 3, episode 10. The Enterprise receives a call for a medical emergency on a planet where the alien people once flourished on Earth during the time of Plato, then they left after the time of Plato and kept the Platonian society. The Platonians have selective breeding and a type of eugenics that left their number paired down to 38. The planet is rich in "kironide" mineral deposits which gives them their psionic abilities, all except for a friendly dwarf named Alexander. Alexander is their court jester and a slave to the Platonians - he is forced by the psionic abilities to do their bidding. McCoy, Kirk and Spock all beam down. McCoy gives Parmen the medical treatment he needs and decides to keep McCoy. They have not needed the medical arts before the time that Parmen became ill. When Kirk refuses Parmen makes all of them do things for his entertainment - even bringing down Nurse Chapel and Uhura for more entertainment. Now Kirk & crew must find a way out of there with the help of Alexander.
What an episode. I actually like this one - it's not the greatest of episodes but it does bring out emotions in me which has me really enjoying it... even though Mr. Spock might find that illogical. LOL. ;)
The famous kiss - erroneously called the first scripted interracial kiss on television. Forcing Kirk to the ground, having Spock to dance and almost crush Kirk's face with his foot, forcing Spock to laugh and then to cry (McCoy saying it will destroy Spock - meaning killing Spock to me). Kirk being forced to be a horse for Alexander the forced rider. On and on.... humiliating the crew in order to keep McCoy as their doctor. And what they have done to Alexander - very emotional.
9/10
