00:00:00To Marcus III, with a cargo of medical supplies.
00:00:04Our course leads us past Murasaki 312, a quasar-like formation.
00:00:09Vague, undefined, priceless opportunity for scientific investigation.
00:00:16On board is Galactic High Commissioner Ferris,
00:00:21overseeing the delivery of the medicines to Marcus III.
00:00:26Captains of shuttlecraft Galileo, stand by, Mr. Spock.
00:00:30Oh, my God.
00:00:33Medical detection.
00:00:35I remind you, Captain, I'm entirely opposed to this delay.
00:00:42Your mission is to get those emergency medical supplies to Marcus III
00:00:46in time for their transfer to the new Paris colony.
00:00:50No problem, Commissioner.
00:00:53And may I remind you
00:00:54that I have standing orders to investigate
00:00:58all quasars and quasar-like phenomena
00:01:01wherever they may be encountered.
00:01:04Besides,
00:01:06it's three days to Marcus.
00:01:13And the rendezvous doesn't take place for five.
00:01:16I don't like to take chances.
00:01:22The plague is out of control on New Paris.
00:01:25We must get those drugs there on time.
00:01:28No problem.
00:01:33Captain to Galileo.
00:01:35All systems cleared for takeoff.
00:01:36Power up.
00:01:54All instruments activated.
00:01:56All readings normal.
00:01:58All go.
00:01:59Launch shuttlecraft.
00:02:01There he is.
00:02:02Here we go.
00:02:03Wh Hospción.
00:02:04Nobody took a lock.
00:02:05There he is.
00:02:14He's still in danger.
00:02:15I've been Ï…plested here.
00:02:18There you have.
00:02:20I've been waiting for one of them.
00:02:21выпол UFOs.
00:02:22there's no problem.
00:02:23There belongs to the Emperor.
00:02:24There belongs to Oregon's house.
00:02:25All listeners live in the zuf interviewed.
00:02:26And there hooves.
00:02:27Here we are.
00:02:28There is none.
00:02:28If you came from me,
00:02:28you wanted to do anything.
00:02:29readings normal acceleration normal
00:02:36phase one separation normal position 3.7
00:02:43sorry make up your mind please mr latimer so this indicator's gone crazy has to be expected
00:02:52mr spock places are extremely disruptive just how much we don't know considerably mr spock
00:03:02radiation is increasing stop for momentum mr letimer
00:03:11delileo 2 enterprise delileo 2 enterprise come in please
00:03:26i only got a fan of mr spock being drawn right into it delileo 2 enterprise delileo 2 enterprise
00:03:37we are out of control being pulled directly into the heart of murasaki 312 being hit by violent
00:03:47radiation on outer house course 3.25 anything at all nothing clear captain just a few words about
00:04:00being pulled off course try and get me a fix on the galileo scanners are blank captain we're getting
00:04:05massive readings i've never seen before nothing makes sense
00:04:09negative ionic concentration 1.64 times 10 to the 9th power meters radiation wave length 370 angstrom
00:04:25harmonics upwards along entire spectrum
00:04:29what is it captain that thing out there is ionizer's complete sector none of our instruments worked
00:04:37at least four complete solar systems in the immediate vicinity
00:04:43and out there somewhere 24-foot shuttlecraft off course out of control
00:04:51finding a needle in a haystack would be child's way
00:04:57space the final frontier these are the voyages of the starship enterprise
00:05:20its five-year mission to explore strange new worlds
00:05:26to seek out new life and new civilizations
00:05:30to boldly go where no man has gone before
00:05:36indelQpo
00:05:47in exchange
00:05:48it's the end of the world
00:05:52what's happening
00:05:53is the end of the world
00:05:56Captain's log, stardate 2821.7.
00:06:22The electromagnetic phenomena known as Murasaki 312.
00:06:27Whirls like some angry blight in space.
00:06:30A depressive reminder that seven of our shipmates still have not been heard from.
00:06:36Equally bad, the effect has rendered our normal searching systems useless.
00:06:41Without them we are blind and almost helpless.
00:06:49I was opposed to this from the very beginning.
00:06:51Our flight to Marcus 3 is of the very highest priority.
00:06:55I'm aware of that, Commissioner.
00:06:56At the same time I have certain scientific duties I must perform in investigating the Murasaki effect as one of them.
00:07:01Yes, but you've lost your crew.
00:07:06We have two days to find them.
00:07:08Two days? In all that? Two days?
00:07:12What would you have me do? Turn around and leave them there?
00:07:15You shouldn't have sent them out in the first place.
00:07:17Captain, there's one planet in this solar system capable of sustaining human life.
00:07:22It's type M. Oxygen, nitrogen, and it's listed as Taurus II.
00:07:27It's unexplored.
00:07:29As far as we can determine with our equipment malfunctioned, it's just about dead center of the Murasaki effect.
00:07:45Mr. Sullivan.
00:07:46Yes, sir.
00:07:47Set course for Taurus II.
00:07:49Aye, aye, sir.
00:07:50You all right?
00:07:51Yes.
00:07:52Yes, sir.
00:07:53You all right?
00:07:54Yes.
00:07:55Scotty...
00:07:56Olma?
00:08:19You all right?
00:08:20Yes.
00:08:21Scotty?
00:08:23Olma?
00:08:24Now, that's what I call a ride.
00:08:29Yellman?
00:08:30It's got a little bump in there.
00:08:34I'll see.
00:08:39What happened?
00:08:41I can't be sure.
00:08:43But I'd say that the magnetic potential of the effect was...
00:08:50It was such that as we gathered speed, it was multiplied geometrically.
00:08:59And we were simply shot into the center of the effect.
00:09:04Well, like a projectile.
00:09:07I say your evaluation is reasonable, Mr. Balmer.
00:09:11What a mess.
00:09:13Picturesque descriptions will not mend broken circuits, Mr. Scott.
00:09:17I think you'll find your work is cut out for you.
00:09:19All right.
00:09:20Laleo to Enterprise.
00:09:22Laleo to Enterprise, come in, please.
00:09:25You don't really expect to get an answer, do you?
00:09:27I expect nothing, Mr. Scott.
00:09:29It is merely logical to try all the alternatives.
00:09:33Dr. McCoy, a reading on the atmosphere, please.
00:09:36Partial pressure of oxygen, 70 millimeters of mercury, nitrogen 140.
00:09:45Breathable if you're not running in competition.
00:09:48Just the facts, doctor.
00:09:52Traces of argon neon kributon.
00:09:55All in acceptable quantities.
00:09:57However, I wouldn't recommend this place as a summer resort.
00:10:02Thank you for your opinion.
00:10:03It will be duly noted.
00:10:05You recording this, Yeoman?
00:10:06Of course, Mr. Scott.
00:10:07All right.
00:10:08Mr. Scott, if you'll make a survey of damage, please.
00:10:12Logical?
00:10:13Gentlemen, I think we should move outside and make room for Mr. Scott to do his work.
00:10:17Mr. Latimer, Mr. Guitano, you'll arm yourselves.
00:10:20Scott out the area, keeping in visual contact with the ship.
00:10:24Aye, aye, sir.
00:10:39What do you think our chances are of contacting the Enterprise?
00:10:43In the present conditions, extremely poor.
00:10:47But they'll be looking for us.
00:10:49If the ionization effect is as widespread as I believe it is, doctor,
00:10:53they'll be searching for us without instrumentation, by visual contact only.
00:11:00On those terms, this is a very large planet.
00:11:04Then you don't think they'll find it?
00:11:06Not as long as we're grounded.
00:11:08We may be here for a very long time, doctor.
00:11:11Nothing happened.
00:11:24Mr. Sulu.
00:11:25Yes, Captain.
00:11:26Anything on your scanners?
00:11:28Totally an opportunity, sir.
00:11:30No readings at all.
00:11:31Have you tried tying into the auxiliary power?
00:11:33Yes, sir.
00:11:33No change.
00:11:38Transport room.
00:11:38This is the captain speaking.
00:11:42Are the transporters beaming up yet?
00:11:44Not 100%, Captain.
00:11:47We beamed down some inert material, but it came back in a dissociated condition.
00:11:51We wouldn't dare try it with people.
00:11:58This is the captain speaking.
00:11:59Flight tech, prepare Columbus for immediate exit.
00:12:06Or search of the planet's surface.
00:12:09Correlate coordinates with Mr. Sulu.
00:12:14Anything over?
00:12:16All wavelengths dominated by ionization effects, sir.
00:12:21Transmission is blocked.
00:12:23Reception impossible.
00:12:24Well, Captain.
00:12:29We have until 28, 23.8 to continue the search, Commissioner.
00:12:37You don't really think you'll have any luck, do you?
00:12:42Look, these people are my friends and my shipmates.
00:12:44I intend to continue the ship's search for them until the last possible moment.
00:12:49Very well, Captain.
00:12:52But not one second beyond that moment.
00:12:54Is that clear?
00:12:57If it isn't, I suggest you look at Book 19, Section 433, Paragraph 12.
00:13:01I'm familiar with the regulations, Commissioner.
00:13:04I know all about your authority.
00:13:08Launch Shuttlecraft, Columbus.
00:13:10Well, I can't say much for the circumstances, but at least it's your big chance.
00:13:35My big chance?
00:13:37For what, Doctor?
00:13:38Command.
00:13:39Command.
00:13:40Oh, I know you, Mr. Spock.
00:13:44You've never voiced it, but you've always thought that logic was the best basis on which to build command.
00:13:50Am I right?
00:13:52I am a logical man, Doctor.
00:13:55Well, it would take more than logic to get us out of this.
00:13:58Perhaps, Doctor, but I know of no better way to begin.
00:14:01I realize that command does have its fascinations, even under circumstances such as these.
00:14:06But I neither enjoy the idea of command, nor am I frightened of it.
00:14:14It simply exists.
00:14:16And I will do whatever logically needs to be done.
00:14:20Excuse me.
00:14:20Very bad, Mr. Spock.
00:14:43In what way?
00:14:44We've lost a great deal of fuel.
00:14:46We have no chance at all to reach escape velocity.
00:14:50And if we ever hope to make orbit, we'll have to lighten our load by at least 500 pounds.
00:14:57The weight of three grown men.
00:15:01Ah, you could put it that way.
00:15:04Or the equivalent weight in equipment.
00:15:07Dr. McCoy, with very few exceptions, we use virtually every piece of equipment aboard this craft in a 10-orbit.
00:15:13There's very little excess weight, except among the passengers.
00:15:16You mean three of us must stay behind?
00:15:20Unless the situation changes radically, yes.
00:15:23And who's to choose?
00:15:26As commanding officer, the choice will be mine.
00:15:31You wouldn't be interested in drawing lots.
00:15:34A very quaint idea, Mr. Bulma, but I do believe I'm better qualified to make the selection than any random drawing of lots.
00:15:42All right, Mr. Spock.
00:15:44Who?
00:15:44Who?
00:15:46My choice will be a logical one.
00:15:50Arrived at through logical means.
00:15:52Mr. Spock, life and death are seldom logical.
00:15:56But attaining a desired goal always is, doctor.
00:16:00Now, gentlemen, I suggest we move outside to make a further examination of the hull in the event we've overlooked any minor damage.
00:16:10If any minor damage is overlooked, it was when they put his head together.
00:16:15Not his head, Mr. Bulma.
00:16:18His heart.
00:16:21His heart.
00:16:22His heart.
00:16:22What is it?
00:16:42I don't know.
00:16:46It's from up there.
00:16:47No, no, it's from back there.
00:17:05It's everywhere.
00:17:06It's all around us.
00:17:08Let's get out of here.
00:17:09Let's hear.
00:17:10Oh, yeah.
00:17:11Oh, yeah.
00:17:15I'm saying.
00:17:16You heard it.
00:17:21What's it?
00:17:22Ah.
00:17:25Oh, yeah.
00:17:27I remember where you are.
00:17:29Oh, yeah.
00:17:29Oh, yeah.
00:17:30Oh, yeah.
00:17:33Oh, yeah.
00:17:34Oh, yeah.
00:17:35Oh, yeah.
00:17:36Come on, Bola.
00:18:06Come on, Bola.
00:18:36It's terrible.
00:18:38Up there, I think I hid it.
00:18:43Did you see what it was?
00:18:49Vaguely, it was like a giant ape.
00:18:53Poor Latimer.
00:18:55Well, at least it was quick for him.
00:19:00We'll get off all right.
00:19:05Nothing there.
00:19:07I'll tell you there was.
00:19:09I don't doubt your word.
00:19:10Well, there must be something.
00:19:11I swear I hid it.
00:19:17Folsom Point.
00:19:18Sir?
00:19:19This.
00:19:20Remarkable resemblance to the Folsom Point discovered 1925 old world calendar.
00:19:26New Mexico, North America.
00:19:28Bit more crude about the shaft, I believe.
00:19:31Not very efficient.
00:19:33Not very efficient?
00:19:35Is that all you have to say?
00:19:38Am I an error, Mr. Boma?
00:19:41You, air?
00:19:44Impossible.
00:19:45Then what, Mr. Boma?
00:19:47There's a man lying there dead.
00:19:50And you talk about stone spears.
00:19:53What about Latimer?
00:19:58My concern for the dead will not bring him back to life, Mr. Boma.
00:20:02Mr. Spock.
00:20:04In the interest of efficiency, you don't think we should leave his body here?
00:20:11Bringing him back to the ship should not interfere with our repair efforts.
00:20:15If you need assistance, I'll...
00:20:17We'll do it.
00:20:21Give him a hand with Latimer, will you?
00:20:23Captain's log, stardate 2822.3.
00:20:48We continue to search.
00:20:51But I find it more difficult each moment to ward off a sense of utter futility and great loss.
00:21:03Captain, the Columbus has returned from searching Quadrant 779X by 534M.
00:21:10Results negative.
00:21:11Have them proceed to the next quadrant.
00:21:12Any word from engineering on our sensors?
00:21:14They're working on them, sir.
00:21:16Still inoperable.
00:21:17What about the transporters?
00:21:19They're still reported unsafe.
00:21:21Thank you, Lieutenant.
00:21:23Captain.
00:21:24Yes, Commissioner.
00:21:26I don't relish the thought of abandoning your crewmen out there.
00:21:30However, I must remind you...
00:21:31I haven't forgotten, Commissioner.
00:21:33You're running out of time.
00:21:35I haven't forgotten that, Commissioner.
00:21:37This is the Captain.
00:21:38Try using overload power on the transporters.
00:21:40We've got to get them working.
00:21:42Aye, aye, Captain.
00:21:45Uhura.
00:21:46Order the Columbus to open its course two degrees on every lap from now on.
00:21:54But, uh...
00:21:55Captain, two degrees means you'll be overlooking more than a dozen terrestrial miles on each search loop.
00:22:01Also means we have a fighting chance to cover the majority of the planet's surface.
00:22:05Mind your helmets.
00:22:06Mind your helmets.
00:22:07Yes, sir.
00:22:08Twenty-four more hours, Captain.
00:22:12Perhaps if you were to channel the second auxiliary tank through the primary intake valve.
00:22:17It's too delicate.
00:22:18It may not be able to take the pressure as it is.
00:22:21This should save us at least fifty pounds, Mr. Spock.
00:22:22Excellent, Doctor.
00:22:23We should be able to scrape up another hundred pounds.
00:22:24Which would still leave us at least one hundred and fifty pounds overweight.
00:22:26I can't believe you're serious about leaving someone behind.
00:22:29Oh, uh...
00:22:30You're right, Captain.
00:22:31Uhura.
00:22:32How much is it?
00:22:33What's the matter, Captain?
00:22:34Uhura.
00:22:35You're right, Captain.
00:22:36Uhura.
00:22:37Uhura.
00:22:38Uhura.
00:22:39Uhura.
00:22:40Uhura.
00:22:41Uhura.
00:22:42Uhura.
00:22:43Uhura.
00:22:44Uhura.
00:22:45Uhura.
00:22:46Uhura.
00:22:47Uhura.
00:22:48Uhura.
00:22:49Uhura.
00:22:50Uhura.
00:22:51Uhura.
00:22:52Uhura.
00:22:53Uhura.
00:22:54leaving someone behind.
00:22:55Now, whatever it is out there that we...
00:22:57It is more rational to sacrifice one life than six, doctor.
00:23:02I'm not talking about rationality.
00:23:04You might be wise to start.
00:23:11Mr. Spock, we're ready.
00:23:13For what?
00:23:14The service is for Latimer.
00:23:17Mr. Boma, we're working against time.
00:23:19The man's dead. He deserves a decent burial.
00:23:22You hear the captain a few words.
00:23:24Doctor, perhaps you know the great words for such an occasion.
00:23:27Mr. Spock, that's your place.
00:23:31My place is here.
00:23:33If you please, doctor.
00:23:34Now, look, we may all die here.
00:23:37At least let us die like men, not machines.
00:23:40By dealing with first things first,
00:23:42I hope to increase our chances of staying alive.
00:23:49Well, Mr. Scott.
00:23:50If you give me a hand with this conduit...
00:23:53The pressure's dropping.
00:24:06We're losing everything.
00:24:08What happened?
00:24:09One of the lines gave.
00:24:11The strain of coming through the atmosphere
00:24:12and the added load, and we tried to bypass.
00:24:14Yeah, perhaps done it.
00:24:21We have no fuel.
00:24:25Well, it would seem to solve the problem of who to leave behind.
00:24:31Consider the alternatives, Mr. Scott.
00:24:33We have no fuel.
00:24:35What alternatives?
00:24:36Mr. Scott.
00:24:37There are always alternatives.
00:24:40Mr. Spock.
00:24:43Something's happening outside.
00:24:44What do those super-sensitive ears make of that, Mr. Spock?
00:25:03Wood.
00:25:05Putting on some kind of leather.
00:25:07They're getting ready.
00:25:08A little attack.
00:25:09Not necessarily.
00:25:12It could be a simple tribal right.
00:25:14Assuming a tribal culture.
00:25:16Not a tribal culture.
00:25:18Their artifacts are too primitive.
00:25:19More like they're a loose association of some sort.
00:25:22If we knew more about them, we could...
00:25:24We know enough.
00:25:26If they're tribal,
00:25:28they'll have a sense of unity.
00:25:29And we can use that.
00:25:31How, Mr. Bulmer?
00:25:32By hitting them hard.
00:25:34Give them a bloody nose.
00:25:35Make them think twice about attacking us.
00:25:37Yes, I agree.
00:25:39If we stand by and do nothing,
00:25:41we're just giving them an invitation to come down and slaughter us.
00:25:44Hmm.
00:25:45I'm frequently appalled by the low regard you Earth men have for life.
00:25:50Well, we're practical about it.
00:25:52Now, I say we hit them before they hit us.
00:25:57Mr. Bulmer?
00:25:59Absolutely.
00:25:59Dr. McCoy?
00:26:02Seems logical to me.
00:26:06Yes, indeed.
00:26:08Seems logical to me also.
00:26:11But to take life indiscriminately.
00:26:13The majority.
00:26:14I'm not interested in the opinion of the majority, Mr. Gitano.
00:26:18The components must be weighed.
00:26:20Our dangers to ourselves,
00:26:22as long as our duties to other life forms.
00:26:24Friendly or not.
00:26:25It was the third course.
00:26:34That could get us killed.
00:26:36I think not.
00:26:37Dr. McCoy.
00:26:38Yes.
00:26:39You and Yeoman Mears return to the ship.
00:26:40Assist Mr. Scott in any way possible.
00:26:43We'll be back shortly.
00:26:43Right.
00:26:44Gentlemen.
00:26:46You follow my orders.
00:26:49With a letter.
00:26:50Firing only when so instructed.
00:26:52And at my designated targets.
00:26:54Now you're talking.
00:26:55You'll fire to frighten Mr. Gitano.
00:26:57Not to kill.
00:27:02Oh, for them.
00:27:04You saw what they did to Lattimore.
00:27:06I am in command, Mr. Gitano.
00:27:08The orders and the responsibility will be mine.
00:27:12Follow me.
00:27:12Follow me.
00:27:12I am in command.
00:27:17I am here to
00:27:37Oh, my God.
00:28:07Oh, my God.
00:28:37Oh, my God.
00:28:39Oh, my God.
00:28:41Oh, my God.
00:28:43Oh, my God.
00:28:45Oh, my God.
00:28:47Oh, my God.
00:28:49I say we hit them dead on.
00:28:50Yes, I know.
00:28:51But fortunately, I'm giving orders.
00:28:54Take aim, please, and fire when I give a signal.
00:28:57Fire.
00:29:07Fire.
00:29:12Fire.
00:29:20Fire.
00:29:21Fire.
00:29:22Fire.
00:29:23Fire.
00:29:24Fire.
00:29:26you should think twice before bothering us again i still say we should have killed them it was not
00:29:36necessary fear will do for us what needs to be done mr boma return with me to the galileo
00:29:44mr gitano you remain on guard here keeping contact with the ship
00:29:56did you find them yes they won't bother us again
00:30:16i hope not scotty has an idea it's dangerous but it might work
00:30:25go mr scott
00:30:29i can adjust the main reactor to function with a substitute fuel supply it's all very well but
00:30:38we don't have a substitute supply i we do our phasers i can adapt them and use their energy
00:30:45it'll take time but it's possible probably as they happen to be our only defense it would also seem to
00:30:52be our only hope i
00:30:53yeoman your phaser
00:31:05but what if the creatures attack again they won't attack for at least several hours by
00:31:10then with luck we'll be gone
00:31:11if i can get a full load we should be able to achieve orbit with all hands not that we can
00:31:16maintain it long we don't have to maintain it very long mr scott in less than 24 hours the enterprise
00:31:23will be forced to abandon its search in order to make a rendezvous if we can't maintain orbit after
00:31:29that time it won't make any difference if we burn up in a decaying orbit or die here on the planet's surface
00:31:37we shall surely die
00:31:39go to work mr scott
00:31:55aye aye sir
00:31:56aye sir
00:32:03aye sir
00:32:17aye sir
00:32:19aye sir
00:32:23They came back all right, sir.
00:32:29In my opinion, the transporters are now safe for human transport.
00:32:32Good.
00:32:33This is the captain.
00:32:35Landing parties 1, 2, and 3.
00:32:37Report to transport a room for immediate beaming down to service of the planet.
00:32:41Ordnance condition 1A.
00:32:43Captain, it's a big planet.
00:32:46It'll be sure luck if our landing parties find anything.
00:32:48I'm depending on luck, lieutenant.
00:32:50It's almost the only tube we have that'll work.
00:32:53I'm depending on luck.
00:33:23It's almost the only tube we have that'll work.
00:33:53Take this back to Mr. Scott for conversion, please, doctor.
00:34:21No one knows what's happened to Gaetano.
00:34:27And you hand over his phaser like nothing's happened at all.
00:34:32I'll give this to Mr. Scott in the event I don't return.
00:34:37Just where are you going?
00:34:38I have a certain scientific curiosity about what's become of Mr. Gaetano.
00:34:44Return to the ship, please.
00:34:45I don't know.
00:34:55He'll risk his night locating Gaetano.
00:34:59Then if he finds it, he's just as liable to order him to stay behind.
00:35:03You tell me.
00:35:05You tell me.
00:35:09Do you really think this ship will ever leave?
00:35:13Well, it won't unless we get these phasers back.
00:35:16I don't know.
00:35:18I don't know.
00:35:22I don't know.
00:35:24I don't know.

00:39:12YOU BROUGHT
00:39:13OUR FURRY FRIENDS
00:39:14DOWN ON US
00:39:15THINK
00:39:16YOU HAVE MISCALCULATED
00:39:17REGARDING THEM
00:39:18AND INCLUDED
00:39:19RESENTMENT
00:39:20ON YOUR WORDS
00:39:21SOME OF THE PARTS
00:39:22CANNOT BE GREATER
00:39:23THAN THE HOLE
00:39:24A LITTLE LESS
00:39:25ANALYSIS
00:39:26AND MORE ACTION
00:39:27THAT'S WHAT WE NEED
00:39:28MR. SPOCK
00:39:29How much longer, Mr. Scott?
00:39:32Another hour, maybe two.
00:39:35Won't be long enough.
00:39:36Doctor, a phaser can only drain so fast.
00:39:46How long do you think those plates will hold out under this?
00:39:48We've got to do something.
00:39:51You've got your hands full.
00:39:59Captain's log, stardate 2823.1.
00:40:03Our landing parties are on the surface of Taurus II, and we continue to hope.
00:40:08Instruments are only slowly returning to an operable condition
00:40:12as the ion storm slowly disperses.
00:40:15On the ship, we can only wait helplessly.
00:40:24What works from the census section?
00:40:26That last report that we're getting some readings.
00:40:28I'm not interested in the last report. I want to know now.
00:40:30Yes, sir.
00:40:31You have two hours and 43 minutes, Captain.
00:40:33I'm perfectly aware of how much time I have left.
00:40:36I am delighted. However, I shall continue to remind you.
00:40:39You do that.
00:40:40Sir, census section reporting.
00:40:43Static interference still creating false images.
00:40:46Estimates 80% undependable.
00:40:49What about radio communication?
00:40:51Clearing slowly.
00:40:53Still incapable of transmission or reception.
00:40:56What do you intend to do?
00:40:58Do they intend to continue the search, foot by foot, inch by inch, by candlelight, if necessary,
00:41:03until the last possible moment.
00:41:07If you keep your nose off my bridge, I'd be thankful.
00:41:11I'm sure the authorities will be pleased by your diligence, Captain.
00:41:17I'm not so sure they'll appreciate the way you address a high commissioner.
00:41:21I'm in command here, Mr. Ferris.
00:41:24You are, Captain.
00:41:24Mr. Scott, how much power do we have left in the ship's batteries?
00:41:43Well, they're in good shape, but they won't lift us off if that's what you're getting at.
00:41:47Well, they electrify the exterior of this ship.
00:41:50But they will, Mr. Spock.
00:41:52All right, go.
00:41:53Get to the center of the ship.
00:41:54Don't touch the plates.
00:41:55Be sure you're insulated.
00:42:04Stand by.
00:42:06Are you ready, Scott?
00:42:07Ready, Mr. Spock.
00:42:08All right, go.
00:42:15Again.
00:42:19Again.
00:42:29I can't use any more.
00:42:31Not going to be sure of ignition.
00:42:32I believe we've used enough, Mr. Scott.
00:42:34I suggest you continue draining the phasers.
00:42:36It must have worked.
00:42:40For the moment.
00:42:41For the moment?
00:42:42The moment they discover they're not seriously hurt, they'll be back.
00:42:46Meanwhile, please check the aft compartment.
00:42:48See if there's anything else you can unload to lighten the ship.
00:42:52Mr. Garton's body is back there.
00:42:54It will, of course, have to be left behind.
00:42:56Not without a burial.
00:42:58I wouldn't recommend it.
00:42:59The creatures won't be far away.
00:43:02Not without a burial, Mr. Spock.
00:43:03It would expose members of this crew to unnecessary peril.
00:43:08I'll take that chance.
00:43:10You see, Mr. Spock,
00:43:12I would insist upon a decent burial,
00:43:15even if your body was back there.
00:43:17Mr. Bulma.
00:43:18Well, I'm sick and tired of this machine.
00:43:20That's enough.
00:43:22Gentlemen.
00:43:25All right, Mr. Bulma.
00:43:26You'll have your burial,
00:43:28provided the creatures will permit it.
00:43:30Captain Kirk, landing party number two has been beamed back before a ship.
00:43:55They have casualties.
00:43:57One dead, two injured.
00:43:59Lieutenant Kellowitz, on visual.
00:44:03Kellowitz, Captain.
00:44:05Your report.
00:44:07We were attacked, Captain.
00:44:09Huge, furry creatures.
00:44:12I checked with Astral Anthropology,
00:44:14and they're ordered 480G,
00:44:17anthropoid,
00:44:18similar life forms discovered on Hanson's planet,
00:44:21but much larger.
00:44:23Ten, twelve feet in height.
00:44:26Your casualties?
00:44:27Lance and O'Neil got a spear through the body
00:44:30before we even knew they were around.
00:44:33Lieutenant Imamura has a dislocated shoulder
00:44:36and severe lacerations,
00:44:38but he'll make it all right.
00:44:40Captain,
00:44:42the creatures are all over the place.
00:44:44If the Galileo is down on that planet, I...
00:44:47Thank you, Lieutenant.
00:44:49You better report to sickbay yourself.
00:44:52All right, Captain.
00:44:56Captain Kirk.
00:44:59Check your chronometer.
00:45:00You'll see it is 2823.8.
00:45:03Your time is up.
00:45:04But they're still out there.
00:45:06So are the plague victims on New Paris.
00:45:08I'm sorry, Captain.
00:45:09I now assume authority granted me
00:45:11under Title 15 Galactic Emergency Procedures,
00:45:14and I order you to abandon search.
00:45:17The Columbus hasn't returned yet.
00:45:20I still have two search parties out.
00:45:22You're procrastinating, Captain.
00:45:24You have your orders.
00:45:25Recall your search parties
00:45:26and proceed to Marcos 3 immediately.
00:45:33Lieutenant.
00:45:34Yes, sir?
00:45:36Order the transporter room
00:45:38to immediately beam up
00:45:39the two search parties from the surface.
00:45:41Attempt to contact the Columbus.
00:45:43I'm in partial contact with the men, sir.
00:45:46Then have them return immediately.
00:45:48Mr. Sulu.
00:45:51Prepare to abandon search.
00:45:53Set course for Marcos 3.
00:45:56Captain's log, supplement.
00:46:14The search parties have returned to the ship.
00:46:17The Columbus is on its way back.
00:46:19I have been compelled to abandon the search.
00:46:24Captain.
00:46:24Sensor section says the beams are working again.
00:46:28What about the other systems?
00:46:29No, sir. Too much interference.
00:46:31Captain.
00:46:32Course said for Marcos 3.
00:46:37Stand ready, Mr. Sulu.
00:46:40How long before the Columbus comes on board?
00:46:4223 minutes, sir.
00:46:4723 minutes.
00:46:48Enterprise, this is Galileo.
00:47:01Come in, please.
00:47:02Enterprise.
00:47:05Nothing, sir.
00:47:06Just ionic interference.
00:47:08That's it.
00:47:10How about weight?
00:47:11If we shed every ounce, we might be able to achieve orbit.
00:47:15And how long can we hold it?
00:47:17A few hours, no longer.
00:47:19But if we time it right, we can cut out of orbit and save enough fuel for a controlled re-entry.
00:47:25To land here again.
00:47:27Not a very attractive possibility.
00:47:29We have very few alternatives, Mr. Spock.
00:47:31Dr. McCoy, Mr. Bomer.
00:47:39When can we lift off, Scott?
00:47:41Maybe eight minutes, if the weight's right.
00:47:45Gentlemen, ship will lift off in exactly ten minutes.
00:47:50You have that long to bury Mr. Guitano.
00:47:52Now, it appears to be clear outside, at least for the moment.
00:47:56I'll assist you.
00:47:57Hurry.
00:48:12The Columbus is aboard, sir.
00:48:14The flight hatch is closed.
00:48:16Transporter room reports last of the landing parties have beamed safely up.
00:48:21All systems reports secured for warp factors.
00:48:24Mr. Sulu, proceed on course for markers three.
00:48:29At space normal speed.
00:48:34Space normal, sir.
00:48:36Those are my orders.
00:48:37Lieutenant Agura, order all sensor sections to direct beams aft.
00:48:41Full function, continuous operation until further orders.
00:48:48Here's the ship, immediately lift off.
00:48:50No, go back.
00:49:00Lift off.
00:49:02Go back.
00:49:03No.
00:49:06All right.
00:49:08No.
00:49:09No.
00:49:10No.
00:49:11No.
00:49:15Go, Scott.
00:49:16Wait.
00:49:17I told you to lift off.
00:49:20Don't be a fool, Mr. Spock.
00:49:21We couldn't leave you out there.
00:49:23Get us off, Scott.
00:49:25We should be moving, but we're not.
00:49:29We're right, Mr. Scott.
00:49:31You seem to be holding us down.
00:49:33All systems are dull, but we're not moving.
00:49:37What are you doing?
00:49:38Hard boosters.
00:49:39We'll never be able to hold orbit.
00:49:41Would you rather stay here?
00:49:42No, Mr. Spock.
00:49:43We're moving.
00:49:50Let it go.
00:49:51What's going on?
00:49:52I remind you, we have yet to achieve orbit, nor can we maintain it long.
00:49:56An hour from now, we may be right back where we started from.
00:49:59Gentlemen, by coming after me, you may well have destroyed what slim chance you had for your survival.
00:50:23The logical thing for you to have done was to have left me behind.
00:50:26Mr. Spock, remind me to tell you that I'm sick and tired of your logic.
00:50:33That is the most illogical attitude.
00:50:37Orbit in one minute, Mr. Scott.
00:50:40Fuel status?
00:50:42Fifteen pounds PSI.
00:50:44Approximately enough for one orbit, sir.
00:50:47After that?
00:50:49Tapping our boosters ended our last chance for a soft landing.
00:50:53You mean a burn-up?
00:50:56That is the usual end of a decaying orbit.
00:50:59I don't want to die up here.
00:51:01Infinitely preferable to the kind of death we'd be grounded on the planet's surface, I should think.
00:51:06I admire your ability to make so measured a choice, Mr. Spock.
00:51:11You said a while ago that there were always alternatives.
00:51:15Did I?
00:51:15I may have been mistaken.
00:51:19Well, at least I've had long enough to hear that.
00:51:26Is there anything we can do?
00:51:29The Enterprise is surely on course for Marcus III by now.
00:51:34I, for one, do not believe in angels.
00:51:36Well, Mr. Spock, so ends your first command.
00:51:45Yes.
00:51:48My first command.
00:51:51Orbit attitude, Mr. Spock.
00:51:53With our present fuel, that gives us about 45 minutes.
00:51:59Delo-Leo to Enterprise.
00:52:15Delo-Leo to Enterprise.
00:52:16Come in, please.
00:52:19Delo-Leo to Enterprise.
00:52:21Come in, please.
00:52:22Mr. Spock!
00:52:52What happened?
00:52:54He jettisoned the fuel and ignited it.
00:52:56You need that fuel to maintain orbit.
00:52:59Are you out of your mind?
00:53:01Perhaps, Mr. Bowman.
00:53:03How long have we got now, Scotty?
00:53:06The orbit will start decaying as soon as the fuel's exhausted.
00:53:10Say, six minutes?
00:53:11Captain, something there on the screen.
00:53:41And Taurus, two.
00:53:48Sensors.
00:53:49A meteorite?
00:53:51No, it's holding a lateral line.
00:53:53There to scan.
00:53:55Only steady, Captain.
00:54:00180 degrees above, Mr. Sooner.
00:54:03Presented to Hura.
00:54:04Contact transporter room.
00:54:05All beings ready.
00:54:07School normal speed.
00:54:11The distress signal?
00:54:28The distress signal?
00:54:28It's like sending up a flare.
00:54:35Mr. Spock.
00:54:38That was a good gamble.
00:54:40Perhaps it was worth it.
00:54:41No one out there to see it.
00:54:53Orbit decaying, Mr. Spock.
00:54:55Ten seconds to atmosphere.
00:55:01Maybe the last action you'll ever take, Mr. Spock.
00:55:07For all of you?
00:55:10Totally illogical.
00:55:13There was no chance.
00:55:14That's exactly what I mean.
00:55:37It's getting hot.
00:55:38Transporter's locked in, sir.
00:55:58Activate beam.
00:55:59Whatever it was, Captain, just burned it in the atmosphere.
00:56:18Captain, transporter room just beamed up five persons.
00:56:35Alive and well.
00:56:36Mr. Sulu, proceed on course to Marcus III.
00:57:00Ahead, warp factor one.
00:57:02Aye, sir.
00:57:04War factor one.
00:57:05Captain, there's really something I don't understand about all this.
00:57:27And maybe you can explain it to me logically, of course.
00:57:30When you jettisoned the fuel and you ignited it,
00:57:33you knew that there was virtually no chance of it being seen,
00:57:36and yet you did it anyhow.
00:57:37And that would seem to me to be an act of desperation.
00:57:40Quite correct, Captain.
00:57:42Now, we all know, and I'm sure the doctor would agree with me,
00:57:45that desperation is a highly emotional state of mind.
00:57:51How does your well-known logic explain that?
00:57:53Quite simply, Captain, I examined the problem from all angles,
00:57:59and it was plainly hopeless.
00:58:01Logic informed me that, under the circumstances,
00:58:05the only possible action would have to be one of desperation.
00:58:10Logical decision logically arrived at it.
00:58:12Ah-ha, I see.
00:58:15You mean you reasoned that it was time for an emotional outburst.
00:58:23Well, I wouldn't put it in exactly those terms, Captain,
00:58:28but those are essentially the facts.
00:58:30You're not going to admit that for the first time in your life,
00:58:40you committed a purely human, emotional act?
00:58:47No, sir.
00:58:48Mr. Spock, you're a stubborn man.
00:59:04Yes, sir.
00:59:05Yes.
00:59:06Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
00:59:09Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
