#18: Star Trek: The Original Series, season 2, episode 7 "Catspaw"

Written by Robert Bloch, directed by Joseph Pevney.

Stardates 3018.2 (September 2267)

"We could have entered your galaxy in peace." - Korob (Theo Marcuse)

Captain Kirk is waiting for the landing party on Pyris VII to report in with increased anxiety. Once they finally do report, only one beams back to the Enterprise - who promptly drops dead in the transporter room. As if that wasn't enough, the crewman's corpse relays a verbal warning to the Enterprise that death awaits them if they try to return to the planet. Kirk, McCoy, and Spock beam down to the surface to investigate and are met with all the Human imagery of Halloween, from a black cat & witches to a haunted mansion.

"It's your life now. At least a chance for life." - Commander Spock

The Enterprise is called to Starbase 11 by an urgent summons. However, when they arrive Commodore Mendez (Malachi Throne) reveals that they sent no message to the Enterprise. While on base, Mendez reveals sad news to Captain Kirk, and especially Commander Spock - Captain Christopher Pike (the man who commanded the Enterprise prior to Kirk, and Spock's former Captain) has been gravely injured in an accident and is undergoing treatment right there on Starbase 11. When they go to see him, Pike is a shell of his former self and demands everyone except for Spock leave his quarters. When Kirk & Mendez suspect that the message was sent by Pike himself, Mendez reads Kirk into a top secret report about Pike's mission to a planet called Talos IV and how it is now forbidden for any starship to travel there. While they are talking, Spock reboards the Enterprise with suspicious, classified orders to embark for Talos IV immediately... leaving Kirk behind.

"Mr. Spock, that was a good gamble." - Lieutenant Montgomery Scott

In an effort to catalog a quasar while delivering critical medical supplies to New Paris, the shuttlecraft Galileo crashes on an unexplored world. Commander Spock, one of the shuttle's occupants, takes command for the first time and attempts to balance his rational, logical understanding with the frayed emotions of the other stranded crewmembers who must now follow his orders. Meanwhile, Captain Kirk fights a ticking clock to locate and rescue the lost shuttle occupants while High Commissioner Ferris (John Crawford) breathes down his neck to reach the life or death rendezvous on time.
