This is the third episode of a high quality fan series about the ongoing adventures of the original crew of the Enterprise. Episode one was pretty good...episode two was much, much better. So what about this third one? Is it worth your time?
The episode begins with a word-for-word recreation of the final portion of "Mirror, Mirror" where the good Kirk lectures evil Spock about how the Terran Empire is destined to die. The episode then picks up with the beaming back of the evil landing party to the evil Enterprise--and evil Kirk is ready and willing to carry out his original order to wipe out the planet below! Nice guy, huh?
Because this is a Mirror Universe episode as told by the Terrans, the introduction is a militaristic one....a nice touch. What follows is an insurrection that breaks out on the mirror Enterprise--with either Spock, Kirk or perhaps some other taking control of the ship.
This episode marks a couple cast change among the core members of the ship. While the Scotty from episodes 1 and 2 was excellent, James Doohan's son, Chris, takes over and sounds even more like the original Mr. Scott. Dr. McCoy is also a different actor...though I hardly noticed much difference between the two.
So is it any good? Absolutely, as I always wondered what happened aboard the evil Enterprise following "Mirror, Mirror"...and the writing was good, as the show seemed quite logical and well thought out regarding the space mutiny. Overall, well worth seeing and an episode that is a must-see for any Trekkie.
