00:00:00Approaching Sigma Yosho-2, Captain.
00:00:03Standard orbit, Mr. Chekhov.
00:00:05Captain, I have received vocal contact from an official station.
00:00:11They relayed us to a man named Oxlix.
00:00:14His title is Boss.
00:00:19Boss?
00:00:20All right, Lieutenant, fill them off.
00:00:24Oxlix.
00:00:25This is Captain James T. Kirk of the Starship Enterprise, representing the Federation of Planets.
00:00:32Hello, Captain.
00:00:34You're from the same outfit as the Horizon?
00:00:36Yes.
00:00:37Unfortunately, the Horizon was lost with all hands shortly after leaving your planet.
00:00:42We only received her radio report last month.
00:00:46Last month?
00:00:47What are you talking about?
00:00:50The Horizon left here a hundred years ago.
00:00:53Difficult to explain.
00:00:55We received a report a hundred years late because it was sent by conventional radio.
00:01:02Your system is on the outer reaches of the galaxy.
00:01:06They didn't have subspace communication in those days.
00:01:10Toward the edge of what?
00:01:13I'll explain it in more detail when I see them.
00:01:15The ship won't land, but we'll transport several people down.
00:01:22Well, that's a little difficult for you to understand, too.
00:01:26I'll explain it in more detail when I see you.
00:01:30Where will be convenient?
00:01:31Well, there's an intersection just at the end of the block, near a yellow fire plug.
00:01:36Do you think you can find it?
00:01:37Fine, fine, fine.
00:01:41Scotty, do you have the coordinates?
00:01:43Located, sir.
00:01:45Good.
00:01:46Mr. Oxmix, we have your intersection located.
00:01:51Will five minutes be all right?
00:01:53Fine, fine.
00:01:54I'll have a reception committee there to meet you.
00:01:57Good, I'll be looking forward to it.
00:01:59Kirk out.
00:02:00Scotty, you have the column.
00:02:01Aye, sir.
00:02:03Sparrow, McCoy, we're beaming down.
00:02:05Standard equipment.
00:02:09The horizon's contact came before the non-interference director went into effect.
00:02:14They must have interfered with the normal evolution of the planet.
00:02:17It will be interesting to see the results of the contamination.
00:02:21Well, we don't know there is contamination.
00:02:23The evidence is only circumstantial.
00:02:25Well, what was the state of the I-Ocean culture before the horizon came?
00:02:29The beginnings of industrialization.
00:02:41Horizon reports indicate the I-Oceans are extremely intelligent and somewhat imitative.
00:02:47So we're going down to recontaminate them.
00:02:50If the damage has been done, doctor, we are here to repair it.
00:02:53Let's not argue about it.
00:02:55Let's go study it.
00:03:06Analyze.
00:03:07Fascinating.
00:03:35Fascinating.
00:03:35This is like coming home.
00:03:37Home was never like this.
00:03:48I've seen pictures of the old days that looked like this.
00:03:52Interesting, Captain.
00:03:54Passers-by are carrying, I believe, firearms.
00:03:57Okay, you three, let's see if that's a fact.
00:04:09Sir, would you mind explaining that statement, please?
00:04:12I want to see it turn to stone.
00:04:16Put your hands over your head.
00:04:19You ain't gonna have no head to put your hands over.
00:04:21Space, the final frontier.
00:04:36Space, the final frontier.
00:04:36These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise.
00:04:48It's five-year mission.
00:04:51To explore strange new worlds.
00:04:54To seek out new life and new civilizations.
00:04:57To boldly go where no man has gone before.
00:05:03Castle, where no man has gone before.
00:05:27The final frontier.
00:05:27What's this?
00:05:55That's a weapon.
00:05:56A heater, huh?
00:06:00Hey, the boss will love that.
00:06:03Now, look, we were asked to come down here by Mr. Oxmix.
00:06:09He said...
00:06:09I know what he said, bud.
00:06:11He said some of the boys would meet you.
00:06:14Okay, we're meeting you.
00:06:15Well, those firearms are not necessary.
00:06:19You trying to make trouble?
00:06:21Who, me?
00:06:22Don't give me those baby blue eyes.
00:06:25What?
00:06:26I don't go for that innocent routine.
00:06:28Sir, does everyone here carry firearms?
00:06:33I never heard such stupid questions in my life.
00:06:36Well, since this oxmix asked us down here, don't you think we should see him?
00:06:40All right.
00:06:41Get moving.
00:06:42Down the street.
00:06:43Rocko's getting more gall all the time.
00:07:05Is this how you greet all your guests?
00:07:06It happens, pal.
00:07:08That man's dead back there.
00:07:09Yeah, we ain't playing for peanuts.
00:07:12What's the matter?
00:07:12You guys never saw a hit before?
00:07:14Sir, there are several questions I would like to ask.
00:07:18Ask the boss.
00:07:19I don't know nothing.
00:07:21Get moving.
00:07:21It's the contamination you're looking for, Jim.
00:07:31Yes, but the Horizon crew wasn't composed of cold-blooded killers, and they didn't report this culture in this state either.
00:07:38Well, what happened?
00:07:39Hey, hey.
00:07:42Hey, when's the boss going to do something about the crummy streetlights around here, huh?
00:07:47The girl ain't safe.
00:07:48Yeah, and how about the laundry pickup?
00:07:51We ain't had a truck by in three weeks.
00:07:53Write him a letter.
00:07:55I did.
00:07:56He sent it back with posters due.
00:07:58Listen, we pay our percentages.
00:08:00We're entitled to a little service for our money, huh?
00:08:03Get lost, will you?
00:08:12People got nothing to do but complain.
00:08:15Is this the way your citizens do business, the right of petition?
00:08:19They pay their percentages, and the boss takes care of them.
00:08:23Hit that button.
00:08:26Yeah?
00:08:27Got him, boss.
00:08:28No sweat.
00:08:29All right, bring him in.
00:08:45Which one of you guys is a captain?
00:08:52Depends.
00:08:56Make yourself a drink, captain.
00:08:59It's good stuff.
00:08:59I just stole it myself.
00:09:02No, thank you.
00:09:03You're, um, Mr. Oxnicks.
00:09:05That's me, pal.
00:09:06This is my first officer, Mr. Spock.
00:09:08Dr. McCoy.
00:09:09Put the chopper down, K-Lo.
00:09:15These guys are our guests.
00:09:17Pick up a queue, captain.
00:09:20Go ahead.
00:09:22You gotta excuse my boys.
00:09:25You can't be too careful around here these days.
00:09:27Yes, judging from what we've seen so far, I agree.
00:09:31They call you the boss, Mr. Oxnicks.
00:09:35The boss of what?
00:09:38The boss of my territory.
00:09:41I got the biggest in the world.
00:09:43You know, there's one thing wrong with having the biggest.
00:09:47There's always some punk trying to cut you out.
00:09:52That's why you can't be too careful.
00:09:55You're the government here?
00:09:57What government?
00:09:58Like I told you, I got the territory and I run it, that's all.
00:10:03But there are other bosses, other territories.
00:10:06Yeah, sure.
00:10:08Maybe a dozen or so.
00:10:11Not counting the small fry.
00:10:15But then they get burned anyway as soon as I get around to it.
00:10:19Does that include, if I may ask, a gentleman called Krakow?
00:10:26How do you know about Krakow?
00:10:28He hit us, boss.
00:10:33Okay.
00:10:34You hit him back, you hear?
00:10:36Hard.
00:10:37I'll take care of it.
00:10:56Krakow.
00:10:56Gangsters, Chicago.
00:11:05Bob's.
00:11:07Published in 1992.
00:11:12Where'd you get this?
00:11:14Hey, wait a minute.
00:11:16That's the book.
00:11:18I know, it's a book.
00:11:19The book.
00:11:20They left it.
00:11:21The other ship, the horizon.
00:11:23This is the contamination, Captain.
00:11:26Astonishing.
00:11:27An entire culture based on this.
00:11:30You said they were imitative in the book.
00:11:33Look, I don't want any more cracks about the book.
00:11:35Did they leave any other books?
00:11:39Yeah, sure.
00:11:40Some textbooks on how to make radio sets and stuff like that.
00:11:45But look, I brought you down here so you could help me, not for you to ask me questions.
00:11:52After that, I'll answer anything you want to know.
00:11:56What is it you want?
00:11:59Well, I was thinking.
00:12:01You feds must have made a lot of improvements since that other ship came here.
00:12:12They probably got all kinds of fancy heaters up there.
00:12:15So here's the deal.
00:12:19You give me all the heaters I need.
00:12:21Enough tools so I can knock off all those punks hot at once.
00:12:25Then I'll take over.
00:12:27And all you have to do is deal with me.
00:12:29Now, let me get this straight.
00:12:30You want us to supply you with arms and assistance so you can carry out an aggression against your neighbors?
00:12:37What aggression?
00:12:39I gotta make some hits.
00:12:40I want you to help me hit them, that's all.
00:12:43Fascinating.
00:12:45But quite impossible.
00:12:47Mr. Oxmix, my orders are quite explicit.
00:12:52I ain't interested in your orders.
00:12:56And from now on, you're going to take orders from me.
00:12:58I'm going to give you just eight hours to give me the things I want.
00:13:03If I don't have those tools by then, I'm going to call up your ship and have them pick you up.
00:13:08In a box.
00:13:10Is that understood, pal?
00:13:15Hey, boss.
00:13:34This here's the heater.
00:13:35I don't know what this is.
00:13:42Let's see how this thing works.
00:13:43Don't do that.
00:13:45You could knock out the sound of the building.
00:13:49That good, huh?
00:13:50Well, all you have to do is give me about a hundred of these fancy heaters and we'll have no more trouble.
00:13:57Out of the question.
00:14:00Captain Kirk, I usually get what I want.
00:14:04What's this thing?
00:14:05All right, burn them.
00:14:11Now hold it.
00:14:16It's a communication device.
00:14:19How does it work?
00:14:22It's locked onto my ship's system.
00:14:25Halo, take them to the warehouse and put them in a bag.
00:14:29Keep a sharp eye on me here.
00:14:31In the bag, boss.
00:14:32Come on.
00:14:32Hey, you.
00:14:54There's a ship up there.
00:14:56Hey, you and the ship.
00:15:02Scott here.
00:15:04Who's this?
00:15:06This is Bella Oxmix.
00:15:09I got your captain and his friends down here.
00:15:13If you want to see them alive again, you'll send me down a hundred of these fancy heaters you got.
00:15:18And some troops to show me how to use them.
00:15:21Am I to understand that you're holding the captain on this party?
00:15:25You heard right, pal.
00:15:28I'm going to give you just eight hours to get me the goods I want.
00:15:32Or I put the hit on your friends.
00:15:36You understand?
00:15:40I don't know.
00:15:41Lieutenant Hadley, check the language banks and find out what a heater is.
00:15:54One book on the gangs of Chicago did all this.
00:16:09It's amazing.
00:16:11Evidently seized upon that one book as the blueprint for an entire society.
00:16:15It's the Bible.
00:16:16In old Chicago, conventional government almost broke down.
00:16:20The gangs nearly took over.
00:16:23Yeah, well, this Oxmix is the worst gangster of all.
00:16:27We may quarrel with Mr. Oxmix's methods, but his goal is essentially the correct one.
00:16:33This society must become united, or it will degenerate into total anarchy.
00:16:39If this society broke down as a result of the horizon's influence, then the Federation is responsible,
00:16:46and we've got to do something to straighten this mess up.
00:16:49Spock, if you could get to the sociological computers, do you think you could find a solution?
00:16:56Unfortunately, I do not have access to my computers, nor are these gentlemen likely to permit it.
00:17:02Well, I've got an idea about that.
00:17:13Gentlemen, gentlemen.
00:17:15This, uh, this card game is a kid's game.
00:17:19You think so, huh?
00:17:21Oh, yes, yes.
00:17:23I wouldn't waste my time.
00:17:24Who's asking you?
00:17:26On, uh, Beta Antares IV, they play a real game.
00:17:29It's a man's game, but, of course, probably a little beyond you, it requires intelligence.
00:17:35Listen, Kirk.
00:17:36I can play anything you can figure out.
00:17:40Take the cards, big man.
00:17:42Show us how it's played.
00:17:44Captain, I'm familiar with the culture on Beta Antares.
00:17:47Spock.
00:17:48I don't know of any of you.
00:17:49Spock.
00:17:49Of course, the, uh, cards on, uh, Beta Antares IV are different, but not too different.
00:18:02Uh, the name of the game is called, uh, Fisbin.
00:18:07Fisbin.
00:18:08Fisbin.
00:18:09It's, uh, not too difficult.
00:18:11Uh-huh.
00:18:11Each player gets six cards, except for the dealer, uh, the player on the dealer's right,
00:18:17who, uh, gets seven.
00:18:19On the right?
00:18:19Yes.
00:18:20The second card is turned up, except on Tuesday.
00:18:24On Tuesday?
00:18:26Mm-hmm.
00:18:29Oh, look what you've got, two jacks.
00:18:32You've got a half Fisbin already.
00:18:33Ha-ha.
00:18:34I need another jack.
00:18:37No, no, if you've got another jack, why, you'd have, uh, a shrunk.
00:18:43A shrunk?
00:18:44Yes, you'd be disqualified.
00:18:45Oh.
00:18:45No, what you need now is either a king and a deuce, except at night, of course, when you'd
00:18:51need a queen and a, and a four.
00:18:53Except at night.
00:18:54Right.
00:18:57Oh, look at that.
00:18:59You've got another jack.
00:19:02Jack, how lucky you are.
00:19:05How wonderful for you.
00:19:07Now, if you didn't get another jack, if you'd gotten a king, why, then, you'd get another
00:19:14card, except when it's dark, when you'd have to give it back.
00:19:17If it were dark on Tuesday.
00:19:20Yes, but what you're after is a royal Fisbin, but the odds in getting a royal Fisbin are astrid.
00:19:27Spark, what are the odds in getting a royal Fisbin?
00:19:30I've never computed them, Captain.
00:19:32Well, they're astronomical, believe me.
00:19:38Now, for the last card, we'll call it a crunk.
00:19:41You got that?
00:19:42What?
00:19:46Oh, I'll get it.
00:19:48Spock, find the radio station.
00:20:06Uhura's monitoring the broadcasts.
00:20:08Cut in and have yourselves beamed up to the ship.
00:20:10Surely you're coming, Captain.
00:20:11I will, but I'm bringing Bella Hawks mixed with me.
00:20:14Jim, you can't...
00:20:15Bones is mess is our responsibility.
00:20:17Have your orders.
00:20:17Let's go.
00:20:18Okay, Pally, we're going for a ride.
00:20:34If you don't mind, I'd rather walk.
00:20:35Listen, Pally, this could either be a taxi or a hearse.
00:20:41You know what I mean?
00:20:43I'm beginning to get the idea.
00:20:45Hello?
00:20:45Come on.
00:21:15You did that very well.
00:21:26Now, how are you with primitive radio equipment?
00:21:32Very simple.
00:21:33Amplitude modulation transmission.
00:21:37Simply adjust the frequency, throw this switch, and the enterprise should answer.
00:21:44That was the jailbreakers with their latest recording on Request Time, brought to you by Bang Bang, the makers of the sweetest little automatic in the world.
00:21:55Fascinating.
00:21:57And very simple.
00:21:58Come on, let me see.
00:22:05Enterprise, this is Mr. Spock.
00:22:08Lieutenant Uhura here. Mr. Spock?
00:22:11Mr. Spock, what are you doing on this frequency?
00:22:15A very long and complicated story, Lieutenant.
00:22:18Notify the transporter room, too, to beam up these coordinates.
00:22:22A very long and complicated story, Lieutenant.
00:22:23The End
00:22:24The End
00:22:26The End
00:23:26I don't want to make a date with a broad unless I know about it.
00:23:32Well, I guess you want to know why I brought you here.
00:23:37You want to make a deal?
00:23:39Hey, I like that.
00:23:42That is sharp.
00:23:44That's sharp, isn't it, boss?
00:23:46Sharp, boss.
00:23:48That's right, a deal.
00:23:51I want you to help me.
00:23:53Ah, let me guess.
00:23:59You want...
00:24:03You want heaters.
00:24:07And then you'll want troops to teach them how to use them.
00:24:12And then you'll attack the other bosses and take over the whole planet.
00:24:18Then we'll sit down and talk, right?
00:24:20Wrong.
00:24:22I know, Bella.
00:24:23Eat it off of you beans.
00:24:26Me?
00:24:27I'm a reasonable man.
00:24:30You give me what I want, and I'll cut you in for, say, a third.
00:24:37Skimmed right off the top.
00:24:39Well, what do you think?
00:24:42I got a better idea.
00:24:44This planet has to be united.
00:24:46Now, you know that.
00:24:47Bella knows that.
00:24:49Let's sit down.
00:24:51You, me, Bella, discuss this whole matter,
00:24:56contact the other bosses,
00:24:57and talk about it like reasonable men.
00:25:01You watch it, Kirk.
00:25:03The book tells us how to handle things.
00:25:09You make hits.
00:25:15Somebody argues, you lean on them.
00:25:17What, do you think we're stupid or something?
00:25:19Oh, no, no, no.
00:25:20I don't think you're stupid, Mr. Gracco.
00:25:22I just think your behavior is arrested.
00:25:24I've never been arrested my whole life.
00:25:26Now, listen, pally, I know how to get what I want.
00:25:30You want to live, don't you, Kirk?
00:25:32You bet you do.
00:25:34But after I get through with you,
00:25:36you're liable to be sorry unless you come across.
00:25:40Hold him here.
00:25:43Tell Cyril the knife to sharpen up his blade.
00:25:47I just might have a job for him.
00:25:52Unless you come across with the eater.
00:25:55I'm sorry, Krakow.
00:26:01No deal.
00:26:05That's too bad.
00:26:08Put him on ice.
00:26:10I just can't go first.
00:26:20I just want to go first.
00:26:22I just want to the eater.
00:26:22I just want to be the eater.
00:26:23I just want to be the eater.
00:26:24The eater or who has not finished his ignite is impossible.
00:26:27Is it the eater?
00:26:29I just want to buy products.
00:26:31What are you saying?
00:26:34I wonder if he's sellingだから aansehen.
00:26:35He's selling out of his bases,
00:26:37not having children or friends.

00:29:37Help me!
00:29:54Help!
00:29:55Help me!
00:29:56Help!
00:30:07Mr. Scott, now we hope to avoid interference.
00:30:24I suggest you set one of our phaser banks on a strong stun position.
00:30:29Aye, sir.
00:30:31Now you're beginning to make sense.
00:30:34I trust we shall not have to use them, but it is best to be prepared.
00:30:40Energize.
00:30:45You know what to do.
00:30:46Don't worry, boss.
00:30:47They can't do nothing until they're through Sparkle.
00:30:50It's just the saying, you be careful.
00:30:52They'll have heaters on them.
00:30:54You watch this.
00:31:03ship's law.
00:31:23Mr. Spock reporting.
00:31:25Incredible as it seems, Dr. McCoy and I are once again prisoners of the chief criminal boss
00:31:32of a society patterned after old earth gangsters.
00:31:37Pick up many more of these. I won't need your cooperation.
00:31:40Mr. Oxnix, I understood we had an arrangement, a truce.
00:31:45I was hoping you'd think that, dummy.
00:31:48We're trying to help you, Oxnix.
00:31:51Nobody helps nobody but himself.
00:31:53Sir, you are employing a double negative.
00:31:59Huh?
00:32:00I fail to see why you do not understand us.
00:32:03You yourself have stated the need for unity of authority on this planet.
00:32:08We agree.
00:32:09Yeah, but I gotta be the unity.
00:32:12Cooperation, sir, would inevitably result...
00:32:15The most cooperative man in this world is a dead man.
00:32:19And if you don't keep your mouth shut, you're gonna be cooperating.
00:32:23Drop the guns.
00:32:24Drop them.
00:32:29Move down there.
00:32:36Hey, Captain.
00:32:37You got away from Crackle.
00:32:39You know that ain't easy.
00:32:40I thought you were supposed to report to the ship, Mr. Sparkle.
00:32:43We did, Captain.
00:32:44The situation required our return.
00:32:46It may be just as well.
00:32:48Did you find out anything from the computer?
00:32:50Nothing useful.
00:32:51Logic and practical information do not seem to apply here.
00:32:55You admit that?
00:32:57To deny the facts would be illogical, Doctor.
00:33:00Then you don't mind if I play a hunch.
00:33:02I'm not sanguine about hunches, Captain.
00:33:06But I have no practical alternative.
00:33:09What are we gonna do now, Jim?
00:33:11Well, now that we have Bella, I'm gonna put the bag on Crackle.
00:33:15Well, listen, you.
00:33:20Say, that's nice material.
00:33:22It ought to be.
00:33:23It cost a bundle.
00:33:25Get out of them.
00:33:26Hey.
00:33:26I said.
00:33:27Just a minute.
00:33:28You, too.
00:33:30Get out of the clothes.
00:33:33Nobody's gonna put the bag on me anymore.
00:33:35You, too.

00:34:12turn the ignition on

00:34:17where's the starter
00:34:18there's the starter
00:34:21yeah
00:34:22interesting
00:34:26gears
00:34:30yes
00:34:31oh
00:34:32I believe
00:34:33they had a device
00:34:35known as a
00:34:36clutch
00:34:37clutch cap
00:34:39perhaps one of those
00:34:40pedals on the floor
00:34:41I kind of like this
00:34:48I may get one myself
00:35:05I may get two
00:35:22Captain, you are an excellent starship commander, but as a taxi driver, you leave much to be desired.
00:35:44It was that bad.
00:35:52Now, that could be a bit of a problem.
00:35:59If they were inside, where they wouldn't be seen, we could stun them with our phasers, but not out here.
00:36:05If we can get close enough to them, we should be able to render them homeless with reasonable rapidity.
00:36:18They don't look like the thrusting pest.
00:36:22It's a hit, ain't it?
00:36:24I beg your pardon.
00:36:25You're going to hit somebody.
00:36:27Can I watch?
00:36:28Young man, run along and play.
00:36:31Where'd you get them ears?
00:36:32Young man.
00:36:34You're going to hit Cracko?
00:36:35Out here?
00:36:37You open up and you'll be scrapped from every window on the street.
00:36:44I can fix it for you.
00:36:46Young man, this is likely to be quite hazardous.
00:36:49If I want you, out of the mouth of babes.
00:36:53Who are you calling a babe?
00:36:54I'm calling you a babe.
00:36:56You're calling me a babe?
00:36:57Yeah, I'm calling you a babe, but there's nothing personal.
00:37:00Sit down.
00:37:02You know a way we could get close to them?
00:37:05Sure.
00:37:06How?
00:37:07What's in it for me?
00:37:08What do you want?
00:37:10A piece of the action.
00:37:11You do not even know what the action is going to be.
00:37:17I figure it's got to be a thick percentage or you wouldn't be trying to hit Cracko.
00:37:23Logical.
00:37:24All right, young man, we'll guarantee you a piece of the action if we can pull this thing off.
00:37:32Was that a contract?
00:37:34Done.
00:37:34What do we do?
00:37:41You don't know what to do.
00:37:50Enough!
00:37:51Enough!
00:37:51Enough!
00:37:52Enough!
00:37:53Enough!
00:37:53Enough!
00:37:55Thinking he's dang up on me, huh?
00:37:57What are you, chicken?
00:37:59Come on, watch it dang up on me!
00:38:02Cut off your head and throw it in your face!
00:38:04I take that!
00:38:06Enough!
00:38:07Enough!
00:38:07How do I like that?
00:38:10Daddy, daddy, I hurt myself!
00:38:12Daddy, daddy, I hurt myself!
00:38:13That's it, let's go.
00:38:18What's the matter?
00:38:19Do you hate yourself, kid?
00:38:20I want my daddy!
00:38:21He's a cute kid, ain't he?
00:38:23Daddy!
00:38:25I don't want my daddy!
00:38:27Lonnie!
00:38:29I want my dad!
00:38:30Lonnie!
00:38:31Wait a moment.
00:38:32What have they done?
00:38:33What have they done here?
00:38:35What have you done?
00:38:36What have you done?
00:38:49Piece of the axe.
00:38:50No one can see.
00:38:59Put your phaser on stone.
00:39:00Well, ain't this nice.
00:39:17I was wondering how I was going to get you back and hear you deliver yourself.
00:39:22Who's your friend with the ears, Kirk?
00:39:29I think you've got it reversed, Mr. Krakow.
00:39:32I ain't, Pally.
00:39:34Put down your heaters.
00:39:36I believe that perhaps it would be wise to do as he says.
00:39:46I just heard the sound of...
00:39:49The sound of a machine gun bolt being pulled back.
00:39:54Mr. Krakow.
00:40:09Mr. Cracko, I don't, uh...
00:40:27So this is a fancy heater, eh?
00:40:30How's it work?
00:40:32I'm trying to tell you, Mr. Cracko,
00:40:35that this is bigger than you, Ox Mix, or anyone.
00:40:39The only thing I want you to tell me is how it works.
00:40:42Well, can you trust all your men?
00:40:46Of course I can.
00:40:47Well, one of these can make a man a pretty big boss, you know.
00:40:52I either trust them or they're dead.
00:41:02Let's go in here and talk about it.
00:41:09Well, we got no business or lies to worry about.
00:41:13How does this thing work?
00:41:15All right, Cracko, we don't have time to show you how to play with toys.
00:41:20Toys?
00:41:20What do you think we're here for?
00:41:23To get a cut of your deal?
00:41:26Forget it.
00:41:27That's peanuts to an outfit like the Federation, right?
00:41:35Unquestionably.
00:41:37Right?
00:41:39Right.
00:41:41Now, look, Cracko, we're taking over the whole ball of wax.
00:41:47And you cooperate with us, and maybe we'll cut you in for a piece of the action.
00:41:51A minuscule, a very small piece.
00:41:59How much is that?
00:42:01That's, um, we'll figure it out later.
00:42:05I thought you guys had laws.
00:42:07No interference.
00:42:08Who's interfering?
00:42:10We're taking over.
00:42:14Check.
00:42:16Right.
00:42:17The, uh, planet is being taken over by the Federation.
00:42:24But we don't want to come in here and, uh, use our muscle.
00:42:29You know what I mean?
00:42:30Uh, that ain't, uh, subtle.
00:42:32So what we do is we, we help one guy take over the planet.
00:42:37He pulls the strings, and then we pull his.
00:42:39Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:42:43Hey, you.
00:42:45Um.
00:42:45Sit down.
00:43:09What's your cut?
00:43:11Why do you care?
00:43:12As long as you're being cut in.
00:43:15Of course, there's always Bella Oxlicks.
00:43:20All right, it's a deal.
00:43:23Call your ship, bring down your boys, and whatever else you need.
00:43:35Kirk Enterprise.
00:43:36Enterprise.
00:43:38Scott here.
00:43:38All right, Scotty.
00:43:40Uh, we made a deal with Krakow.
00:43:46We did, sir?
00:43:47Yeah, we're ready to make the hit.
00:43:49Uh, we're taking over the whole planet as soon as you get ready.
00:43:53Do you think that's wise, sir?
00:43:56Sure.
00:43:57We can trust Krakow, but we don't have any choice.
00:44:00You know what I mean?
00:44:01I mean, he's standing about 12 feet in front of me, all ready to be our pal.
00:44:08Of course, uh, Scotty, I'd like to show him the ship.
00:44:12Just, uh, to show him that we're, uh, we're on the level.
00:44:18But, you know how it is.
00:44:19I know indeed.
00:44:25Scotty, we'll, uh, need, uh, phasers, uh, to equip, uh, every one of Krakow's men.
00:44:31We'll need advisors and troops to back him up on the hit.
00:44:36You got all that, uh, Scotty?
00:44:39Aye, Captain.
00:44:45Captain, we're preparing everything.
00:44:48It'll be ready when you get the work.
00:44:51You, uh, may begin, Mr. Scott.
00:44:54Acknowledged, Captain.
00:44:57You mean you're gonna start sending down your boys now?
00:45:03Not exactly.
00:45:18All right, check.
00:45:30All right, check.
00:45:31How, how, how, how'd I get here?
00:45:46What, what happened?
00:45:51You, you must be that Scott fella that Kirk was talking to.
00:45:54I want to know what happened.
00:45:57It looks like we put the bag on you, doesn't it?
00:46:01I got rights.
00:46:03You got nothing.
00:46:04You mind your place, mister, or you'll, you'll be wearing concrete galoshes.
00:46:11You mean cement overshoes?
00:46:18Um, I.
00:46:19What is the way?
00:46:35It's faster than walking.
00:46:37But not as safe.
00:46:38Are you afraid of cars?
00:46:39Not at all, Captain.
00:46:40It's your driving that alarms me.
00:46:42Spark, I've got the hang of it by now.
00:46:43Go on.
00:46:44Oh, not again.
00:47:11Hey, wake up.
00:47:18You all right?
00:47:25Hey, you guys, come in here.
00:47:33Oh, the fed snatch crackle.
00:47:36I never seen anything like it.
00:47:39They're gonna move in unless we stop.
00:47:41I'm now.
00:47:42Yeah, how?
00:47:45Well, Bella's mixed up in this somehow.
00:47:50I got a sneaking hunch.
00:47:53They're gonna hightail it back to his territory.
00:48:00You know what we're gonna do?
00:48:03We're gonna hit his place.
00:48:05Where are they?
00:48:08Knowing crackle, he'll probably send them back on a blotter.
00:48:18Wrong again, Oxnicks.
00:48:21Jim.
00:48:23Knocking off some bones.
00:48:25I wanna talk to this creep.
00:48:29Now listen, I'm getting tired of playing pancake with you penny anti-operators.
00:48:33What do you mean, a penny anti-operator?
00:48:35You're a penny anti-operator.
00:48:37Sit down.
00:48:39All right, Sparko, cover him.
00:48:43Now listen, sweetheart.
00:48:44The Federation's moving in.
00:48:46We're taking over.
00:48:47You play ball, we'll cut you in for a piece of the pie.
00:48:50You don't, you're out.
00:48:52All the way out.
00:48:53You know what I mean?
00:48:53Yeah, sure.
00:48:57Why didn't you say so in the first place?
00:48:59All you had to do was explain it to me.
00:49:04Kirk, Enterprise.
00:49:05Enterprise.
00:49:06Scott here, sir.
00:49:07You got crackle on ice?
00:49:09Aye, he's here.
00:49:11Mad enough to chew neutronium, but behaving himself.
00:49:16Okay, baby.
00:49:16Cool him until I flag him.
00:49:20Flag me?
00:49:20Keep him there until I send for him.
00:49:24We're going to make some old-style phone calls from this locale.
00:49:30So you locate the man on the other end of the blower and give him a ride to this flop.
00:49:36What?
00:49:40Find the man at the other end of the phone and transport him to these coordinates.
00:49:45Can't do, sweetheart.
00:49:49Can do, Captain.
00:49:50Standing by.
00:49:52Now you.
00:49:54Get on the blower and call the other bosses.
00:49:59I sure don't know what you think you're talking about.
00:50:01Get with it.
00:50:01I'm giving the orders here.
00:50:03Scotty.
00:50:14Scotty.
00:50:15Scotty here.
00:50:16Guess who?
00:50:17Lock in and energize.
00:50:19Yeah, you bet your life I got a lot of nerve.
00:50:22What are you going to do about it?
00:50:24Coming over there with a couple of my boys.
00:50:27I said, we're...
00:50:27Mother!
00:50:38Mother!
00:50:49Hey, Captain, that ain't bad.
00:50:51Yeah.
00:50:52Yeah.
00:50:53I would advise you to keep down with our spirits.
00:50:57All right, you know what to do.
00:51:08We hit Bella's place and nobody comes out alive.
00:51:12All right, let's go.
00:51:15All right, all right, all right, all right.
00:51:34Now, the Federation's taking over, whether you like it or not.
00:51:40You people, you've been running this planet like a piecework factory.
00:51:46From now on, it's going to be under one roof.
00:51:50You're going to run it like a business.
00:51:54And that means you're going to make a profit.
00:51:57Yeah.
00:51:58Now, what's your percentage?
00:52:01I'm cutting the Federation in for 40%.
00:52:04You got any objections?
00:52:08Yeah.
00:52:10I hear a lot of talk, but all I see here is you and a couple of your boys.
00:52:15I don't see no Federation.
00:52:18Listen.
00:52:20They got a ship.
00:52:21I know.
00:52:22I was there.
00:52:24Wait a minute.
00:52:26Wait a minute.
00:52:28Kepler's got a point.
00:52:29Right.
00:52:30All we ever seen is them.
00:52:32What?
00:52:33A couple of your boys.
00:52:34I'm not going to believe my eyes.
00:52:35Right.
00:52:36All we ever seen is the whole I saw.
00:52:39There's too many horses here.
00:52:45Hang on a minute.
00:52:46Hang on a minute.
00:52:48There's too many horses here.
00:52:49Quiet.
00:52:50Just a moment.
00:52:52Let me say something.
00:52:54I only saw three guys in that ship.
00:53:02Maybe there ain't no more.
00:53:04There are over 400 guys, Dad.
00:53:16That's your story, Buster.
00:53:19Hey, that's my boys.
00:53:31They're making their head at this place.
00:53:33My boys will put you down.
00:53:35You want to bet?
00:53:38Keep moving.
00:53:39One move out of you two guys.
00:53:41Now drill them.
00:53:43Give me the hardware.
00:53:44Hey, that's great, Cracko.
00:53:47Now we got hushes again.
00:53:49We can make a deal with the feds up there.
00:53:51Are you kidding?
00:53:52This one's all mine.
00:53:55Now on, nobody's going no place.
00:53:57I'm going to be the big boss in this here, Terrence.
00:54:03Now wait a minute.
00:54:04Wait a minute.
00:54:06Get that heater down.
00:54:08Don't you want to take a look at what you're going to fight?
00:54:11I already seen it.
00:54:13You're nothing, Ted.
00:54:15All right, but at least let me call my ship one last time and say goodbye.
00:54:20Well, all right.
00:54:21Go ahead.
00:54:23Don't get smart.
00:54:25Hello, Scotty.
00:54:27This is point.
00:54:29Enterprise.
00:54:30Scott here, sir.
00:54:31Scotty.
00:54:32Put the ship's facers on stun.
00:54:35Fire a burst in a one-block radius around these coordinates.
00:54:39Right away, sir.
00:54:40Scott out.
00:54:40Hey, that's some trick.
00:55:09Hey, did you see that?
00:55:11They're not dead.
00:55:12Just knocked out for a while.
00:55:14But they might just as well have been that way if we wanted them to.
00:55:19Okay, okay, Kirk.
00:55:22So we get the message.
00:55:23Now, what was this syndicate deal you were talking about?
00:55:27Uh, but he was talking about a percentage.
00:55:30What?
00:55:30I was talking about both.
00:55:33Okay.
00:55:34A syndicate makes sense to me.
00:55:37I'm a peaceful man at heart, but I'm sick and tired of all these hits.
00:55:41I hit crackle, crackle hits teppo, teppo hits me.
00:55:48There's too many bosses.
00:55:49We can't get anything done.
00:55:52Now, I was thinking, if there was just one, maybe somebody like you is the top boss, then
00:55:58we can get things done.
00:56:00Hey, Bella.
00:56:02Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:56:04The Federation can't get connected with a small-time operation like this.
00:56:08Now, I was thinking, Bella, you would be the top boss.
00:56:15Crackle, you'd be his lieutenant.
00:56:18The rest of you, I don't want any trouble from the rest of you, because you'll have to answer
00:56:22to the Federation.
00:56:24We'll be back every year to collect our cut.
00:56:26Look, you figure maybe 40% is enough?
00:56:31Yeah, I think 40% is sufficient.
00:56:36It's reasonable.
00:56:38It sounds reasonable.
00:56:39That sounds reasonable to you?
00:56:41That's reasonable, Mr. Oxblicks.
00:56:43Let's break out some of your drinking stuff and celebrate the syndicate.
00:56:56Gentlemen, you two have been brooding ever since we returned to the ship.
00:57:08Brooding, Captain?
00:57:10Brooding, Mr. Spock.
00:57:12A somber, emotional state.
00:57:13Now, do you wish to continue it, or are you going to discuss it?
00:57:18Captain, I am neither brooding nor somber.
00:57:21But I do have reservations about your solution to the problem of the Iotians.
00:57:26Ah, yes.
00:57:27I understand that.
00:57:28You don't think it's logical to leave a criminal organization in charge?
00:57:34Highly irregular, to say the least, Captain.
00:57:37I'm also curious as to how you propose to explain to Starfleet Command
00:57:43that a starship will be sent each year to collect our cut.
00:57:51Yes, that's a very good question, Mr. Spock.
00:57:54Look, I propose that our cut be put into the planetary treasury
00:57:58and used to guide the Iotians into a more ethical system, despite themselves.
00:58:04They'll be forced to accept conventional responsibilities.
00:58:07Isn't that logical?
00:58:08All right, Bones, in the language of the planet, what's your beef?
00:58:22Well, I don't know how serious this is, Jim.
00:58:26And I don't quite know how to tell you.
00:58:30Well, go ahead.
00:58:30But in all the confusion, I...
00:58:34Tell me.
00:58:36I think I left it in Bella's office.
00:58:39You left it?
00:58:40Somewhere.
00:58:41I'm not certain.
00:58:43You're not certain of what?
00:58:44I left my communicator.
00:58:48In Bella's office?
00:58:50Captain, if the Iotians, who are very bright and imitative people,
00:58:55should take that communicator apart...
00:58:57They will, they will, and they'll find out how the translator works.
00:59:00The translator is the basis for every important piece of equipment...
00:59:03That we have.
00:59:04Do you really think it's such serious...
00:59:06Serious.
00:59:08Serious, Bones.
00:59:08It upsets the whole percentage.
00:59:11How do you mean?
00:59:12Well, in a few years, the Iotians made a man...
00:59:16A piece of our ash.
00:59:38It upsets the whole师's, Bones.
00:59:41Soon, it's a small town.
00:59:42I'm happy to sit around.
00:59:43What?
00:59:44icios who can break the松 flowers.
00:59:48I'm happy to break theindomerate house of theology.
00:59:50Best lies on your own me.
00:59:53Good solstice!
00:59:54Bad Hol Life!
00:59:54This is Block Nation.
00:59:55Allez!
00:59:56Good boy.
00:59:56Good boy.
00:59:58Good boy.
01:00:01Good boy.
01:00:02Good boy.
01:00:02Good boy.
01:00:04Good boy.
01:00:05Good boy.
01:00:06Good boy.
