cimorene: cartoony drawing of a woman's head in profile giving dubious side-eye (you know what)

entertaining enough but nothing especially special--except for one of tos's 1,600,042 plots about how computers can't replace humans because humans have SOUL (and this episode is particularly notable in that spock is first to bring it up, and he uses the word "soul" when he does it).  it's also one of the 1,600 episodes in which they defeat a computer by proving to it that it is illogical, whereupon it speaks in a strange voice, emits smoke and sparks, and ceases to work.  maybe kirk has psychic control over computers.

the best thing about this episode is spock's black hooded cape.  spock looks really good in a black hooded cape.  the second best thing is everyone else's costumes, which want to have a kind of The Puritans Have Just Landed vibe going on, but keep getting themselves confused with sort of 1910 and 1930 vibes, in that they couldn't actually afford any shirts more historic than oxford button-downs.  ahem.





a man who can't leave behind the mascara even in period costume.  spock loves him anyway.


spock's enjoying that cape a lot.  who wouldn't?





hold on, boys, one at a time.







the inner sanctum as designed by playskool.


don't call him "sister" or he'll fuck you up.


the promised shirtsleeves


kirk strikes a manly and heterosexual pose

and, of course,




kirk says spock would make an excellent computer; this is spock's surprised and flattered face.


this is kirk's "you're so adorable--raise your eyebrow at me some more" face.

Holy crap. That cape really is a fetching number on Spock. And Kirk's "awwww" face? Priceless.

Wow, Spock is really hot in black.

Also, I have never seen Star Trek, but they are so gay. So, so gay for each other. Honestly. They really are.
