KIRK:
Captain's log, stardate 5423.4.

We are orbiting Gideon, which is still
not a member of the Federation.

Treaty negotiations have been difficult.

Gideon has refused the presence
of a delegation from the Federation,

or any surveillance
by the ship's sensors.

They finally agreed
to a delegation of one.

They insisted it be
the captain of the Enterprise.

I am therefore beaming down at once.

Too bad Gideon
isn't cleared for visitation.

According to the physio-cultural
reports, it's paradise.

I shall be interested in your description.

You won't have long to wait.

Lieutenant Uhura, do we have
final clearance from Gideon?

Yes. They have provided us
with the coordinates.

- May I have them, please?
- 875.

- 020.
- 020.

- 079.
- 079.

- Let's go, Mr. Spock.
- Energizing.

Mr. Spock?

Mr. Spock,
I have not yet transported down.

Why did you leave your post
before confirming transport?

Mr. Spock?

Spock?

Engineering? Mr. Scott?

Scotty?

Lieutenant Uhura, report immediately.

All bridge personnel,
report immediately.

Kirk to crew, is anyone aboard?

Sickbay? Dr. McCoy?

Bones, Bones, answer me.

Bones...

Still orbiting Gideon.

KIRK:
Space, the final frontier.

These are the voyages
of the starship Enterprise.

Its five-year mission:
To explore strange new worlds,

to seek out new life
and new civilizations,

to boldly go where no man
has gone before.

I am alone on the Enterprise.

I have searched every area of the ship
and cannot find a trace of the crew,

or an indication of how
its disappearance was managed.

One thing is obvious.
I suffered a memory lapse,

during which time I bruised my arm.

It is causing me some irritation.

Gideon is contacting us, Mr. Spock.

- Put it on the screen.
- Aye, sir.

Captain Kirk,
this is Ambassador Hodin.

The council is awaiting your arrival.

This is Mr. Spock, Ambassador Hodin.

Captain Kirk was transported down
minutes ago.

- That's impossible.
- I transported him myself.

He never arrived.

He was beamed
to your council chambers.

Please verify your coordinates.

875-020-079.

Coordinates confirmed.

We gave you the exact coordinates,

which should have brought
Captain Kirk to this room.

I am not questioning that, sir.

If he is not here, that is your own
responsibility and that of your staff.

I do not deny that. I am not attempting
to blame your personnel.

Glad to hear it. We shall enter it into
the records of this unfortunate event.

Even with intricate machinery
as delicately balanced as ours,

there is a margin for error
to be dealt with.

It is possible that Captain Kirk
materialized on another part of Gideon.

Let us hope it was on dry land.

Your Excellency.

May I cut to the heart of the matter?

I request permission to beam down
to conduct a search.

Permission denied.
Your Federation must be aware

of our jealous tradition of isolation
from all contaminating contacts

with the violent nature of planets
of other star systems.

Your Excellency, the wars
between opposing star systems

no longer prevail in our galaxy.
If you will grant permission...

We shall institute a thorough search.

In the meantime, Mr. Spock, I suggest
that you look to your machinery.

We must acknowledge once and for all

that the purpose of diplomacy
is to prolong a crisis.

What are we waiting for?
We're not diplomats.

We are representatives
of the Federation.

That doesn't mean we have to behave
like children and listen to a fool lecture.

Diplomacy is the only channel available
to us at the moment.

The planet is shielded from
our sensors. We cannot scan it.

We are unable to select coordinates.
They must be provided by Gideon.

We should never have agreed
to restrictions.

We did not, Mr. Chekov.
The Federation did.

Lieutenant Uhura, contact Starfleet
immediately. Explain our problem.

Request permission to use every
means to search for Captain Kirk.

- At once, sir.
- Are there any other possibilities?

There are endless, Mr. Chekov.

Where do we start, Mr. Spock?

Institute a sensor scan 360 degrees,
one degree at a time.

- You're going to scan space for him?
- But that could take years.

Then the sooner you begin, the better.

Aye, sir.

Who are you?

Odona. Yes. My name is Odona.

Why did you bring me here?

What are you doing on my ship?

Is this entire ship yours?

Not my personal property,
but I'm the captain.

You have it all to yourself?

It seems, at the moment,
we have it all to ourselves.

You're hurting me, Captain.

Kirk. I'm sorry. James Kirk.
And I didn't bring you here.

- If you didn't bring me here...
- Who has brought you here?

- I don't know.
- You...

What happened
before you came here?

Try to remember. It's important.

It seems I was standing in a...

Yes, I was standing in a large
auditorium, crowded with people.

Thousands, pressed in against me.

I could hardly breathe.
I was fighting for oxygen.

Screaming to get out.

Don't be afraid.

I'm not, but you are troubled.

I seem to be the only one of my crew
left on board the Enterprise.

430 and I, apparently,
am the only one left.

I'm sorry. I wish I could help.

Maybe you can. Tell me the rest.

You were fighting for oxygen?
Screaming to get out of there?

And then suddenly,
I was here on your ship.

And there was all this space and
the freedom. I just wanted to float.

And then there you were.

How long have you been
aboard the Enterprise?

I don't know. Not long.

- Is it important?
- It might be. Come with me.

Lieutenant Uhura, has Starfleet
honored our request with a reply?

There's been no response, sir.

Did you advise them
the captain's life is at stake?

Yes. They insist it must be
referred to the Federation.

- What department?
- Bureau of Planetary Treaties.

- Contact them directly.
- I did.

They insist that we must
go through Starfleet channels.

With the captain lost,
that's the best they came up with?

Diplomats and bureaucrats
may function differently,

but achieve exactly the same results.

- Nine minutes of my life has been lost.
- I don't understand.

Between the time I beamed down
to Gideon and I found myself here,

nine minutes have disappeared.

What happened during that time?

What is Gideon?

That's your home.

- The planet that you come from.
- Is it?

It must be.

Gideon? I don't know any Gideon.

That's impossible.

We were in synchronous orbit
over Gideon.

I tried to beam down.
Something happened.

And you were beamed aboard
from Gideon.

I do not think so.

We're no longer over Gideon.

- Where are we?
- I don't know.

I'm not familiar with that quadrant.

Odona, you must realize
that we're not here by accident.

Some force, some intelligence,
has arranged this... for a purpose.

Captain, before I said I wasn't afraid.
Now I am.

The ambassador is requesting
visual communication.

Very good news indeed, Mr. Spock.
Your captain is definitely not on Gideon.

As you requested,
we made a most thorough search.

You may investigate other possibilities
and forget about us.

That is not what we requested.

You requested a most thorough
search. It is in the record.

We used every means
at our disposal to accommodate you.

Your record on the subject
is not precise, Your Excellency.

Surely, Mr. Spock,
you do not intend, I hope,

to create a dispute between
the Federation and Gideon.

Your Excellency, a dispute
is the farthest thing from our minds

and there is no need
to check your records.

I merely suggest that the language
of our statement

may not have been...
understood exactly as intended.

Mr. Spock,
you are an officer of a space ship.

In your profession, you use many tools,
weapons to achieve your objectives.

True, Your Excellency.

However, the only tool
diplomacy has is language.

It is of the utmost importance
that the meaning be crystal clear.

Your Excellency,
I am basically a scientist.

Clarity of formulation is essential
in my profession also.

I am glad to hear it.

Perhaps you could make greater effort
to choose your words more precisely.

- Don't let him get away with that.
- No matter what you say, he'll twist it.

He's infuriating. How can you stand it?

We cannot leave without being
sure everything has been done.

You understand our feelings
about that?

- Mr. Spock?
- Yes, Your Excellency.

- Are you still there?
- Yes, Your Excellency.

There was interference
with your transmission.

Noise drowned out what was said.
Would you repeat, please?

I apologize for the noise,
Your Excellency.

I request permission
to transport down to Gideon.

Forgive me, Mr. Spock. No criticism
of your equipment was intended.

But it has sent your captain on a
strange journey, a safe one, we hope.

But it could create for us
serious incidents with your Federation.

Now you propose to repeat this disaster
with another officer? It's madness.

I'll not take that, Mr. Spock. That
transporter was in perfect condition.

I guarantee that myself. Transport me
down and I'll prove to those...

...gentlemen.

Go to the transporter
room and await my orders.

Aye, Mr. Spock. [MUMBLES]

I could not make that out, Mr. Spock.

Would you be repeat what you said?

Yes, the ship's engineer was
explaining that the malfunction,

which did exist,
has now been repaired.

We want an opportunity
to test the equipment.

I request permission to beam
down to your council chamber.

But, Mr. Spock, you...

Your Excellency,
grant this one request.

You are a very persistent fellow,
Mr. Spock.

Very well, then.

You shall test the skill
of your very excitable repairman.

There is one proviso.
We cannot risk further incidents.

You will therefore transport a member
of my staff to your ship.

- Let us first see if that works.
- Thank you.

Your proposal is accepted.

Mr. Scott, prepare to beam aboard
a representative of the Gideon Council.

My assistant will provide you with
the proper... What is the word?

- Coordinates.
- Thank you. Proceed, Krodak.

- 875.
- SCOTT [ON RADIO]: 875.

- 020.
- 020.

- 709.
- 709.

Energizing.

The gentleman from Gideon is here.

Your Excellency,
your assistant has arrived safely

and I am ready to transport
down to Gideon.

Not so fast, Mr. Spock.
That is quite a different matter.

We agreed to allow one representative
on our soil, your captain.

Sir, our captain is still missing

and I now demand that I be allowed
to transport to Gideon as we agreed.

Forgive me, but I overstepped my
authority when I made that agreement.

However, your request will be taken up
at the next session of Gideon's council.

Beam down the gentleman
from Gideon.

I'm sending him straight
to the same coordinates.

Just when I was beginning to think you
might find a new career as a diplomat.

Do not give up hope. Lieutenant
Uhura, contact Starfleet Command.

Demand an immediate reply to
our request to beam down to Gideon.

Yes, Mr. Spock.

Enterprise to Starfleet Command.

Enterprise to Starfleet Command.

Captain Kirk here.
Red priority. Red priority.

- Isn't it in working order?
- It seems to be.

Then someone should have heard you.

Captain Kirk here, please answer red
priority. Please answer red priority.

If someone is listening,
they're not answering.

Why should they do that?

They wouldn't.

- What did you do?
- Took us out of warp.

- Out of what?
- Space terminology.

We won't move faster than the speed
of light until we find out where we are.

- It feels the same.
- Of course it does.

Maybe it is the same.

Has the ship slowed down?

If you can believe that, we have.

Please. Don't tell me the sky
is out of order now.

It's so quiet.

So peaceful.

It isn't really, you know.

And it's beautiful.

Yes, it is.

Very beautiful.

And we're alone.

Can you make it last a long time?

How long would you like it to last?

Forever.

Let's see. Power, that's no problem.
It regenerates.

And food, we have enough to feed
a crew of 430 for five years.

- So that should last us...
- Forever.

All my life I've dreamed of being alone.

Most people are afraid of being alone.

Where I come from,
people dream of it.

Why are the people of Gideon
like that?

Gideon?

I told you I don't know where
I come from, what my planet is.

- It might be Gideon.
- Does it matter so much?

Yes. It might help me
pinpoint our location.

And you might find your crew.

Being here with you,
I forgot there must be others.

I envy you your sense of loyalty.

I want to ease your feeling of dread,

your fear that all your crew
no longer exists.

I've got to contact
whoever's manipulating us.

There must be a way.

Odona, can you remember why
your people dream of being alone?

Because they never can be.

Why?

What makes it so impossible
to be alone?

Because there are so many of us.
So many.

There is no place, no street,

no house, no garden, no beach,

no mountain that
is not filled with people.

Each one of us would kill in order
to find a place alone to himself.

They would willingly die for it,
if they could.

Who sent you here?

No one commands Odona.
I was not sent here.

You've come to kill.

Odona, have you come to die?

I don't know. I don't care.

I only know I'm here.
I only know I'm happy.

Now all I have to do is find a medical kit
and I can completely cure this.

- Cure?
- Yes, the irritation would be gone.

What will happen
if you do not find one?

Will you become sick and die?

No. Not from something
as simple as this.

No, it'll cure itself eventually, but...

Do you know, I don't even remember
how this happened.

[DISTANT THUMPING]

Do you hear that?

Yes, it sounds like an engine.

No, the ship's engines
don't make that kind of sound.

But something is wrong with
the equipment. Could that be it?

I know every sound
that this ship might make.

That's coming from outside.

- A storm...
- A storm might.

But you wouldn't be able to hear it.

Come on.

This is a viewing port. If there's
a storm, we'll be able to see it.

If it works.

People. The faces of people.

And then the stars.

What's happening? What's out there?

The sound is gone.

It was like the heartbeat
of all those people

and thousands more
pressing against the ship.

But you said
we were moving through space.

- Yes, I said that.
- Then the people can't be out there.

- Yes, they can.
- Please don't frighten me.

It could be a mirage.
They could exist in our minds.

You mean that we're going mad.

Or some power

is creating the illusion in our minds
that we are near your planet.

But why?

I don't know.

I don't know.

I think I have an idea.

So we won't try
to find out where we are,

that we'll be content to stay here.

Be content.

Be content?

Be content? Not until I find out
what happened to my crew.

- Are they dead?
- I don't know.

Did you kill them so you could have
the ship to yourself?

Captain...

Captain, something is
happening to me.

- I never felt like this before.
- I've never felt like this before either.

Is this the way one looks
when one is developing a sickness?

There's no sickness on your planet,
remember?

Now there will be.
There will be sickness.

There will be death.

- Hodin.
- Yes, Captain Kirk.

Our experiment
has passed the first stage.

Let me in there. I can help her.

We have no need of your medicines.

- But she's ill.
- We're grateful to you for her illness.

You have done well, my daughter.

Guard the captain well.
We shall need him for a long time.

ADMIRAL:
I sympathize deeply,

but Starfleet cannot
override Federation directives.

Admiral, the crew
will not understand it.

Is your crew interested in provoking
a war? That is not Starfleet's mission.

We wish only to save
the life of the Captain.

You have not proved your case
to the Federation, or to Starfleet.

I am positive that I can do so
to your satisfaction.

I have been convinced
since my first exchange

that the captain was taken prisoner.

- Granted as fact, Mr. Spock.
- I now know where he is being held.

If he is being held at the same place
to which we transported him.

They would not harm him
in the council chamber.

He is not being held in the council
chamber. He is being held nearby.

You answered what and where. I am
waiting for your explanation of why.

The planet is shielded
from our sensors,

so we cannot establish that
without an investigation.

Do you have evidence
the captain's life is threatened?

Permission denied.

Admiral, I wish to state for the record
that your decision is arbitrary.

So noted.

Will it last long?

That depends on the strength
of the one infected.

You have great strength.

How will you know when I am to die?

Your body temperature
will be very great.

You will see us,
but you will not know who we are.

I must see him before then, Father.

Lie still.

Do you feel great pain?

Yes. In my arms and thighs.

What is it like to feel pain?

It is like...

...like when you see the people have
no hope for happiness, Father.

You feel great despair.

And your heart is heavy because
you know you can do nothing.

Pain is like that.

Your courage gives me great pride.

- Let me see her.
- Not yet.

- You don't know what she may have.
- But we do.

She has Vegan choriomeningitis.

It's rare and fatal if not treated within
24 hours. I know. It almost killed me.

Our prime minister learned
during our negotiations.

That's why we brought you here.

Your blood provided micro-organisms
which infected her.

That's how my arm got hurt.

As Odona told you, we have no
need for medical practitioners here.

Our apologies. We were unforgivably
awkward to have hurt you.

- You're mad.
- No, we are desperate.

I don't understand how
they can deny us permission

to search for the captain.

They did not ask
for our understanding.

How can they expect us to wait
for the captain to reappear?

- Unfortunately, I must violate an order.
- That's the best decision. I'm with you.

I do not make it lightly, Doctor.

However, Command knows
Ambassador Hodin

has not been honest with us.

Lieutenant Uhura, repeat original
Gideon coordinates for beam down.

875-020-079.

Mr. Scott, the coordinates given you?

875-020-709.

- The coordinates don't match.
- Precisely. I shall beam down at once.

- Mr. Scott, you have the conn.
- I'll meet you in the transporter room.

I cannot accept responsibility for
ordering an officer to violate a directive.

I can make the decision
only for myself.

I'm not asking you
to make the decision for me.

The situation forces me to do so,
Doctor.

In that case, it's the worst decision
you can make.

This will not take long.

Isn't that just about what
Captain Kirk said before he left?

Captain Kirk, Spock here.
Captain Kirk?

Your report to the Federation
was a tissue of lies.

You described environmental conditions
that would make Gideon a paradise.

And so it was. A long time ago,
what we described was true.

The atmosphere on Gideon
has always been germ-free

and the people flourished in their
physical and spiritual perfection.

Eventually, even
the lifespan increased.

Death became almost unknown to us.

It occurred only when the body
could no longer regenerate itself

and that happens now
only to the very old.

Those are conditions
most people would envy.

But Gideon did not find it enviable.

The birth-rate continued to rise
and the population grew

until now Gideon
is encased in a living mass,

who can find no rest,
no peace, no joy.

Why haven't you introduced

the new techniques
to sterilise men and women?

Every organ renews itself.
It would be impossible.

Let your people learn about
the devices to prevent conception.

The Federation will provide
all you need.

But the people of Gideon have
always believed that life is sacred.

That the love of life is the greatest gift.

That is the one unshakable truth
of Gideon.

This overwhelming love of life has
developed our regenerative capacity

and our great longevity.

And the great misery
that you now face.

That is bitterly true, Captain.

Nevertheless, we cannot deny
the truth which shaped our evolution.

We are incapable of interfering

with the creation of that
which we love so deeply.

Life, in every form,
from fetus to developed being.

It is against our tradition,
against our very nature.

- We simply could not do it.
- Yet you can kill a young girl.

We are trying to readjust the lifecycle
of an entire civilization.

By killing your daughter?

My daughter hoped to make you
feel the agony of Gideon.

But it was impossible.

No stranger could realize
the horror that life can be here.

I will not beg for your understanding
of my grief,

nor will I parade it for you
to gain your cooperation.

My love for my daughter
is too deep for display.

My pride in her runs even deeper.

My daughter freely chose
to do what she is doing,

as the people of Gideon
are free to choose.

The virus you need is very rare.
Who will provide it?

You will stay. Your blood will provide it.

Not me. You have
many methods available to you.

I have mentioned only a few.
I do not offer my life for this purpose.

I have many plans and I have hopes
other than death for Odona.

My daughter pleaded with you to stay.

What was said and what happened
between us was for us alone.

She hoped you would love her
and wish to stay.

So that was your plan.

That I would fall so under her spell,

that I would give up my freedom
and become a willing sacrifice.

Stay with us. We're desperate.

[BLEEPING]

Odona's fever is rising.
She is calling the name of James Kirk.

You see, you cannot leave us now.

Go to her.

An exact duplicate of the Enterprise.

But completely inoperative.

Spock to Enterprise.
Spock to Enterprise.

Scott here, Mr. Spock.

I am speaking to you
from the bridge of the Enterprise.

- You're where?
- On the bridge of the Enterprise.

Those were the coordinates
you insisted on.

And they were correct. I'm on board
an exact duplicate of the Enterprise.

An exact duplicate of the Enterprise?

Is it in orbit, Mr. Spock?

In orbit, Doctor?

In a manner of speaking, Gideon is
in orbit and the ship is on Gideon.

That's a beginning.
What about the captain?

I'm sure he's on board somewhere.
I'm picking up life readings. Spock out.

SPOCK: Ship's log, stardate 5423.8.
First Officer Spock reporting.

The Gideons have transported Captain
Kirk onto a replica of the Enterprise

to so confuse his mind as to make him
susceptible to some experiment.

It is my intention to locate the captain

and warn him before the experiment
reaches its conclusion,

which logic indicates means the end
of the captain's life as he knows it.

[GROANS]

Allow me to bring Dr. McCoy down, or
it'll be too late to do anything for her.

We have told you,
it is her wish and mine

that there be no interference
with the virus.

Her death is unnecessary.

If she lives, her blood will provide
the same serum you need as mine.

No, her death at so young an age
will let the people know for certain

that our lifecycle can be changed.

It is the symbol that will bring forth
dedicated young volunteers.

The serum in their new blood
will change Gideon

and it will once more
be the paradise it was.

I'm glad that you're here.

Is the time short?

Very short.

And I asked you to make
our journey last for ever.

It began here.

And it can continue.

If only you will allow me,
I can cure you.

I am not afraid of what will happen.

It is just that now... I wish with all
my heart to stay with you forever.

Your Excellency.
Captain, you're looking well.

Starfleet's analysis was correct.

Mr. Spock, we have a patient for
Dr. McCoy. Have Scotty beam us up.

Spock to Enterprise.
Spock to Enterprise.

- Scott here.
- Three to beam up, Mr. Scott.

- Same coordinates?
- Lock in on my communicator signal.

Your Excellency,
please do not interfere.

I already have one serious problem
to resolve with upper echelons.

Well, that was close, but you made it.

I am... cured?

Right. Just like the captain.

Instead of smiling,
you should shout in anger.

Why, because you're well again?

No, because I pretended to be...

How can you bare to look at me
after the way I deceived you?

At least you owe me the privilege
of letting me look at you.

- You are a gentleman, Captain Kirk.
- Thank you, ma'am.

You are no longer needed on Gideon.
I can take your place there.

Is that what you want to do?

That is what I must do.

I am needed there now.

You're needed everywhere, Odona.

- It is not like our ship.
- It's exactly the same. Only it works.

- It goes to many other planets?
- Yes, the whole galaxy.

With another difference.
This one is crowded.

It seems crowded to you?

It does now.

Are you going to stay on the ship?

Yes, Odona, I have to.

As crowded as my planet is, I could
wish for it to hold one more person.

Kirk to transporter control. One to
beam down to the planet Gideon.

I will miss you, Captain James Kirk.
