Former Starship Captain Is An Insane Shape-Shifter
Season 3, episode 14. The Enterprise has arrived at the planet Elba II, which is an asylum for the criminally insane, with a serum that can possibly cure all of the inmates. Kirk and Spock beam down and find that all of the inmates are running the asylum including former (now insane) starship captain Garth, who's exploits were once required reading at the academy. Garth has learned how to shape-shift and can become anyone including Kirk or Spock. The criminals hold Kirk and Spock captive so he can take over the Enterprise and escape. Kirk and Spock learn of all this and has a surprise waiting for Garth. Before Kirk left, he gave Scotty a chess problem as a sign - which plays an important role in signaling the Ship.
Another one of those "fun" episodes. As others have said, it is flawed but fun to watch. They sure loved to pair Kirk with green skinned or haired women did they. LOL. It's a joy to watch the lovely Yvonne Craig as Marta.
7.5/10
