Episode 77: The Savage Curtain. This episode of the 1960s science fiction series begins with the Enterprise coming across one of the most unexpected space travelers they have encountered: President Abraham Lincoln. Finding the long-dead President alive and well in outer space, a stunned Captain Kirk beams him aboard. The man, who indeed seems to be Lincoln, convinces Kirk and Mr. Spock to accompany him to the surface of a nearby planet. They agree, and Spock is similarly shocked when the trio is joined by Surak, a legendary Vulcan historical figure. The meaning of these strange encounters becomes clearer when the foursome meets a powerful alien, who explains that he is conducting an experiment to test the worthiness of their species, using them as examples. This test takes the form of a battle to the death between Kirk, Spock, Surak, and Lincoln, on the side of good, against four historical representatives of evil, including Genghis Khan and the ruthless Klingon warrior Kahless. Kirk and Spock must band together with their idols to defeat their villainous opponents, or else they, and the Enterprise, shall be destroyed. ~ Judd Blaise, All Movie Guide
Episode 78: This episode of the popular science fiction series finds Captain Kirk, Dr. McCoy and Mr. Spock exploring a planet on the verge of destruction, and ultimately becoming lost in the strange world's history. The trio are puzzled when they first reach the surface, finding the structures of an advanced culture but no life. The mystery becomes somewhat clearer when they discover a building housing a time portal, overseen by a series of clones. Through these clones -- who call themselves "librarians" -- the Enterprise officers discover that the planet's residents, facing imminent doom, have all used a time machine to find new lives in their civilization's past. Trouble ensues, however, when Kirk accidentally steps through the time portal, finding himself in the planet's equivalent of the 19th century. Spock and McCoy follow, hoping to rescue their commander, but instead find themselves trapped in the planet's brutal ice age. Lost in inhospitable environments, the three must discover the way to return to the future before the planet and its time portals are forever destroyed. ~ Judd Blaise, All Movie Guide
