 : '''The Paradise Syndrome'''
+(First watched 2009-04-08) &nbsp;Hey, finally the &quot;I am Kirok!&quot; episode.
+I guess this is as close as Kirk gets to a &quot;The Inner Light&quot; situation, living another life, though it doesn't last for decades as for Picard. &nbsp;So really in that regard it's more like a couple Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis episodes I can think of.
+Busy episode for Kirk, though. &nbsp;Becomes a god, medicine man, husband, father-to-be, and widower within the span of one episode.
+Was it really such a surprise to Salish that the god Kirok could bleed? &nbsp;I mean, he eats and breathes and behaves in all other ways like a regular person. &nbsp;Why not bleed? &nbsp;Even if he was a god, it would seem he'd taken complete human form in a biological sense.
+Spock was talking about the logical choices and all, but he really seemed to blow it by blowing the engines. &nbsp;They had to waste 2 months crawling around. &nbsp;Perhaps with full power they could've used those two months to devise an alternate plan, or go get more help, rather than requiring last-minute use of a Preserver device.
+Preservers are an interesting concept. &nbsp;An ancient race that moved life forms around from planet to planet to help things not die off. &nbsp;McCoy says it helps explain why there are so many humanoids around, but not really; it would only help explain why there are ''humans'' around on other worlds, or whatever other duplicates.
+And featuring... white people as Native Americans!

 : '''And the Children Shall Lead'''
+(First watched 2009-04-09) &nbsp;I like the goofiness of being able to summon a spirite/energy being/whatever by just replaying the summoning ceremony's audio. &nbsp;I guess we viewers are damned lucky the glowing guy in robes didn't appear for all of us.
