cimorenethis one is called 'regek' in my head. it's the obligatory jack the ripper episode of star trek. everyone does it, don't they? mr scott is implicated in a few murders of women by stabbing, and it turns out they were committed by an eeeeeevil energy being from the dawn of time who goes around feeding on fear. when they scare it out of the body it's inhabiting, it flees to the computer and chants shrilly/breathily from all around, 'regek REGEK regek regek regekregek REGEEEEEEEEK!'
(so see, a much more fun title, too.)
in the computer, it has the ability to generate terror by cutting off life support, so mccoy shoots the whole crew up with a powerful tranquilizer. they're sitting at their stations giggling
(regek: ...and you're all going to DIE in HORRIBLE AGONY and there's NOTHING YOU CAN DO! [paraphrase]
sulu, with silly grin: whoever he is, captain... he sure needs to calm down. [also paraphrase] ::giggle::!)
spock over-rides the computer's programming and asks it to compute pi to the last digit, explaining to jim that it will gradually take over more and more of the computer's circuits since the task is impossible. 'but it won't last long,' spock cautions. 'how long?' says kirk. 'a few hours at most.' kirk replies with an air of mild surprise, 'oh, that should be plenty of time.'
when they at last have everyone on the ship tranquilized but the mccoy, kirk, spock, and the president of the planet ('i'll take a chance on spock,' says kirk--bwahahaha. is it because we'd notice if spock started acting oddly or because spock would be horribly humiliated to betray any emotions as the tranks would make him do?), jim says to mccoy, 'what would happen if the being entered a tranquilized body?'
mccoy: well, jim, it might take up knitting. certainly nothing more dangerous than that.
a few moments later they've got its present body pinned to the floor. it's shouting 'you'll all die!' they give it the injection.
tranquilized evil from dawn of time (TEftDoT): you'll ALL--::pause:: ::dreamily:: i'm going to kill you ALL.
spock and kirk lift him and sling him over kirk's shoulder. as they're leaving the room, TEftDoT is chanting hypnotically, interspersed with giggles and in a nasal-ish cartoon-voice falsetto, 'die, die, die, die, die...'
