Episode 28: Operation: Annihilate!

Operation Annihilate

OMG!!! We actually made it through Season One!!

Ok so it took us about as long as Kirk’s complete five year mission, but we completed Phase One of what started off as a fun little idea concocted over Bailey’s-infused coffees on a Christmas morning long ago.

To finish the season, we had to deal with Kirk dying (Oh wait, that’s his twin brother, right? No, just his brother who looks exactly like him. I’m just confused now…), Kirk’s sister-in-law dying, and Kirk’s nephew apparently being sent to live in an orphanage for the rest of his childhood (“Sorry, there’s no room on the Enterprise for a snot-nosed kid.” -Kirk).

Oh yes, and did we mention LOTS OF FLYING VOMIT?!?!?!

And that Spock GOES COMPLETELY BLIND?!?!?!

Episode 27: The City on the Edge of Forever

City on the Edge of Forever

An award-winning classic Star Trek episode? You mean we’re not the only ones who think Star Trek really does have some great plots?

Generally regarded as one of the all-time best Star Trek episodes, this episode features a gorgeous Joan Collins as possibly the one true love of Kirk’s life (Kirk exempted of course). Some funny Spock humor, some over-the-top demented Bones acting, and a genuinely soul-crushing Kirk decision makes for a surprisingly effective combination.

Could you build something from stone knives and bearskins? Do you own a few pounds of platinum? Do you dig Joan Collins’ accent? Let us know your thoughts in the comments or send us an email at StarTrekQuest@gmail.com.
