(First watched 2009-04-11) Hey, Dr. Pulaski! And she's blind! Funny how they made such a big deal about how even with an advanced sensor dress, a blind person shouldn't pilot the ship. A biiit different from [[Star Trek: The Next Generation Season 1|the first season of TNG]] when Geordi and his VISOR helmed the Enterprise-D. | |||
I think maybe TOS and I have a language problem. Sometimes there's a concept that I think I can grasp, but they explain it in what seems an off way. For instance, I can buy that there's something weird about the Medusans that can cause many humanoids to go insane upon seeing them... but to just repeatedly call that "ugliness". Come oooon. | |||
The end confused me a bit. Kirk seemed to be making accusations without certainty, and I wasn't happy with the lack of resolution. If she ''wasn't'' trying to kill Spock by influencing his mind, he was just being a big asshole. If she ''was'', it doesn't seem a good idea to just happily send her on her way after she helps him recover. | |||
The Spock/Kollos melding was pretty interesting. And gives Nimoy one of his few chances to use a very different demeanor with Spock. | |||
Standard Kirk move of the week: When called upon to create a distraction so big that it will distract Dr. Jones from telepathically noticing things... of course Kirk's solution is to try flirting. Which fails. | |||
