Quirky episodes like this one, whether good or bad, tend to stick with the fans for decades. This is Star Trek going Shakespearean, and it’s oddly fascinating and surprisingly natural. Star Trek doing Shakesopereand murder mystery is even better. I also love the way Kirk goes all out suave lover boy, while Spock starts investigating Kirk’s past actions. Even though the story is tense, it allows for some fine character moments and never turns theatrical. It turns a bit overly dramatic towards the end though.
