Episode 35: The Doomsday Machine. Star Trek 35: The Doomsday Machine centers on the conflict between the Enterprise and the titular machine, a gigantic alien vessel that consumes entire solar systems during its march across the galaxy. The trouble begins when the Enterprise encounters the starship Constellation, now a ruined hulk containing a single survivor: the nearly incoherent Commodore Matt Decker. Captain Kirk is investigating the destroyed starship when the source of this devastation becomes abundantly clear -- as the enormous alien ship returns -- trapping him aboard the helpless Constellation. Meanwhile, aboard the Enterprise, a newly energized Decker takes command of the Enterprise in an obsessive quest to destroy the alien ship at any cost. This episode from the enduringly popular television series' second season was penned by noted science fiction author Norman Spinrad. ~ Judd Blaise, All Movie Guide
Episode 36: Wolf in the Fold. After suffering a minor head injury, the Enterprise's chief engineer, Scotty, is ordered by Dr. McCoy to take a brief leave -- as part of his recovery process, of course -- in this episode of the popular sci-fi television series. Reluctantly, Scotty puts aside his workaholic tendencies and joins the doctor and Captain Kirk in traveling to a planet that bears a strong resemblance to 19th-century London. At first quaint, the parallels to Earth culture become frightening when the society proves to have its own variation on {%Jack the Ripper}, and Scotty is accused of the crimes. The other officers attempt to defend their friend against the charges, but mounting evidence refutes their arguments for innocence. Even worse, Scotty not only lacks an alibi, but has begun suffering from blackouts which leave him with no memory of his activities during the times of the murders. The script for {#Wolf in the Fold} was written by {$Robert Bloch}, best known for the novel that inspired {$Alfred Hitchcock}'s {#Psycho}. ~ Judd Blaise, All Movie Guide
