Star Trek TOS: The Enterprise Incident

The second episode from the third and final season (you should know that!) of the original series manages to pack quite a bit into an hour! We have Captain Kirk going from insane to dead to Romulan and back again all the while Spock plays double agent, Joanne Linville does her very best to "bring sexy back" to the role of Romulan Commander, Bones tries not to overact and the Federation ends up stealing a cloaking device to boot. Amazingly it all works when you consider how quickly all of this has to unfold. The real story with this one has to be props department who raped the Nomad probe and the Sargon globe (come on...you know the episodes) to build the cloaking device and some idiot stepped on the Romulan battle cruiser model so, oh shit, have the buggers buying Klingon technology...no sense crying over broken Romulans as they say. Good action with some fun laughs thrown in make this a great one!
