Trivia:
This was one of three scripts submitted to NBC (along with "Star Trek: Where No Man Has Gone Before (#1.3)" (1966) and "Star Trek: Mudd's Women (#1.6)" (1966)) when they were seeking to do a second pilot for the series. They ultimately chose to kickstart the series with "Where No Man Has Gone Before". more
Goofs:
Continuity: Early in this episode, when Kirk is calling from the Exeter's engineering section to the rest of the ship, we see various shots of different parts of the ship. One of those shots is of an empty engineering deck, which makes no sense - that is where he is calling from. more

The #1 oath for a captain is to give their lives before directly interfering with the development of a civilization. Kirk and a landing party board an empty starship and find the whole crew contracted a deadly disease that wiped them all out. Now that they too contracted the sickness, they dare not return to the Enterprise, but to the planet below to find a cure. On reaching the planet, they find Capt. Tracey alive and well. They will later find out Tracey has been using his weapons to influence power in the primitive culture which is forbidden by StarFleet regulations. Some great fight sequences with Kirk, including a great one-on-one showdown with Tracey at the end.
