I really wish we could have seen more of her, but I donвЂ™t know how they could have done that and IвЂ™m not just talking about what happens to her. Yvonne Craig, of Batman fame, gives an amazing performance as Martha. He fails and has a hissy fit which is hilarious to watch. The villain,В Garth, shapeshifts into Kirk in an attempt to get onto the Enterprise, seize control of it and rage war. The leader of the inmatesВ tries to get Kirk to join him. Whom Gods DestroyДЄfter beaming down to deliver new medical equipment to anВ insane asylum, they are captured by the inmates who have taken control of the facility. In the end, their pride wonвЂ™t allow them to co-exist,В so they continue to fight even when the war is over. There is no forced resolution or says вЂњhe is right, you are wrongвЂќ. The reason I love this episode is because of how it ends. Admittedly it is one of the better episodes of that nature, but for me, I see it as a cautionary tale of what stubbornness and pride can lead to in any conflict of interest whether it be race or just ideologies clashing. This is often the episode that gets namedropped when people talk about how Star Trek discussed race issues and how it was ahead of its time. This small difference has created a race war that kills all but two of their people. The story is about two aliens who look the same only with their colours mirrored. I know, but it is still a fantastic episode nonetheless. Yes, this might be one of the most overratedВ episodes. In the animated series, there is a spinoffВ episode which is just as charming. Bones and Sulu also have some interesting character development. From the back rub scene to Spock expertly manipulating Kirk into shore leave. This episode has some of the best banter between Spock and Kirk. They soon discover that the planet brings their thoughts and desires to life. While scouting out a planet for shore leave, odd things start to happen. Yet at the same time, it is a great character piece. Perhaps one of the most random episodes in the original series. However, it works because of SuluвЂ™s deadpan reaction to it and TrelaneвЂ™s childlike behaviourВ shows that there wasnвЂ™t any malice behind it. The only downside of this episode is a couple of lines that could be taken the wrong way *cough* Tumblr *cough*. Trelane is such a fun character, it is a shame we donвЂ™tВ see him again but he was the inspiration for another Godlike character further down the line, Q. The episode is just the crew trying to deal with a man with who seems to have almost Godlike powers and the mentality of a child. The crew meet an odd person namedВ Trelane, the self-proclaimedВ Squire of Gothos. This episode is the cheesiest on this list, but I love it! Starting off the list at number five isВ The Squire of Gothos.
