THE MENAGERIE TO: THE REVIEW

THIS IS ONE OF THE TEN BEST TREKS!

GUEST STARS...
Sean Kenney (and cast from THE CAGE)

PLOT SUMMARY...
Mr. Spock hijacks the Enterprise, and kidnaps his former captain, his destination... a forbidden planet.

QUICK SCAN...
This important episode features a fascinating performance by Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock defending his hijacking of the Enterprise. The only two part episode in the Classic "Trek" series, it cleverly incorporates much footage from the first pilot, "The Cage". Viewers get a good opportunity to compare and contrast early and later interpretations of Mr. Spock's bangs, eyebrows, and personality.

SYNOPSIS...
Former Enterprise captain Christopher Pike, now an invalid confined to a hi tech wheelchair, is kidnapped by Mr. Spock from Starbase 6. The Vulcan takes over the Enterprise, diverting its course to Talos IV, a planet it is forbidden to visit, under penalty of death.

On the way to Talos IV, a Federation board of inquiry, convened aboard the Enterprise and headed by Commodore Jose Mendez, listens to Spock's explanation of the kidnapping and hijacking. Spock's speech is aided by old tapes of the Enterprise's previous journey to the planet, under Captain Pike's command.

Captain Pike chooses to stay behind on Talos IV, with the illusion of health and youth provided by the planet's aliens. The Enterprise warps out of orbit.
