THE DOOMSDAY MACHINE TO: THE REVIEW

THIS IS ONE OF THE TEN BEST TREKS!

GUEST STARS...
William Windom

PLOT SUMMARY...
The Enterprise encounters a huge, planet destroying, alien machine in space.

QUICK SCAN...
This episode features high suspense and exciting space action sequences. William Windom ("Newhart") delivers a terrific performance as the doomed Commodore Decker. If you like "Moby Dick", you'll love "The Doomsday Machine", which is essentially "Moby Dick" in space, with a dash of "The Caine Mutiny" for flavoring.

SYNOPSIS...
The Enterprise encounters Commodore Decker of the U.S.S. Constellation. All his crew are dead, as a result of a huge, space going machine that destroys planets.

Decker has been driven to madness by the loss of his crew. He conspires to take over the Enterprise, leaving Kirk stranded on the Constellation, which has a malfunctioning transporter. Spock assumes command of the Enterprise.

Decker flies a shuttle into the "mouth" of the alien machine, dying in the process. Kirk flies the Constellation towards the alien device. Kirk beams back to the Enterprise at the last moment; the Constellation explodes inside the huge alien machine, shutting it off.
