The U.S.S.
Enterprise is
ordered to pick up Ambassador Robert Fox, who is headed to planet
Eminiar VII on a diplomatic mission. Upon arriving at the planet, the
ship is warned away.
Beaming
to the
surface with a landing party, Kirk and Spock
are met by a young woman, Mea 3, who tells them that Eminiar VII has
been at war with its neighboring planet, Vendikar, for over 500 years.
Mea 3 takes them to the council chambers where they find banks of
computers. Eminiar's head council Anan 7
informs them that the two planets have learned to avoid the complete
devastation of war because computers are used. When a "hit" is scored
by one of the planets, the people declared "dead" willingly walk into
antimatter chambers and are vaporized. Anan 7 further tells Kirk that
his ship and all the crew aboard her have been declared casualties and
will be executed. When Kirk flatly refuses, the landing party members
are taken prisoner.
The
council
members are unable to convince Scotty, in charge of the U.S.S.
Enterprise,
to lower shields without a direct order from Captain Kirk. Meanwhile,
Ambassador Fox has beamed to Eminiar and is also taken prisoner, marked
for death. Kirk and Spock escape and gain the council chambers where
they destroy the computers. Kirk tells the council members that they
have made this war too easy for themselves and that they will truly
experience the horrors of war if they do not learn to make peace first.
Ambassador Fox volunteers to stay behind and negotiate a peace between
the neighboring planets.

You tell him

Why did they always make the Federation
representative act like an idiot? How did
the Federation get to be as big and strong as it
is if all they have are morons running the show?

I do believe
our

Mr.
Spock - Scotty
How did the
ambassador get to the planet?
As soon as the screens were lowered the ship
should have been fired upon from the planet, but
it wasn't!! So, how did Fox get to the planet?
They goofed here.
Mr.
Spock - Yeoman Tamula
It sounds to
me
like Spock is saying the
yeoman's name as "Tamura" but the
credits list her as "Tamula."
No big deal, I just thought I'd mention it.

This is the

a fake General Order used as a bluff by Kirk.

Kirk makes

It's one of the qualities of a great leader.
Yes, I'm aware it's a TV show.
