Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIn Robert Bloch's original script, a wealthy socialite named Margo hired the Enterprise to look for Doctor Korby, whom she greatly admired. In his script re-writes, Gene Roddenberry felt the role would be better filled by Korby's wife or fiancée, which would play well with the doctor's alleged intimate relationship with Andrea and his emotional coldness. Finally, he wrote the part to feature Christine Chapel, who was previously featured in The Naked Time (1966) (and was played by Roddenberry's lover, Majel Barrett). In any case, money is no longer widely used, certainly not by the Federation, so it is hard to see how someone could hire the Enterprise.
- GoofsOne close-up of Kirk during his last conversation with Ruk is flipped. Notice that his hair is parted the opposite way and the colors of the costume are reversed.

Featured review
Strong plot and with a shocking ending
This is an early Star Trek season one episode made when Captain Kirk, Spock, Uhura, Scotty, Sulu and Nurse Chapel were members of the standard Star Trek crew that we all recognize today. Basically, Nurse Chapel--Dr. Roger Korby's old flame--together with Captain Kirk beam down to an isolated planet for what they imagine is a friendly get together with the doctor. Unfortunately...for Kirk, Dr. Korby has other ideas and forces Kirk to make a clone of himself in order to seize control of the Enterprise. This is a memorable episode with a compelling and powerful ending when you discover who Dr. Korby really is. Its a remarkable show when you consider that Sulu and Scotty were did not appear in this episode and has to be considered a Star Trek classic.
The episode does indeed have an extremely well written script and several emotional scenes such as when Nurse Chapel get a kiss from Uhura before beaming down to see her long-lost fiancée and Dr. Korby's haunting words to Chapel when she discovers Korby's true identity.
