Summary
When a private sub-space message is “delivered” to the Enterprise, Kirk and Co. make their way to Star Base 11. But when Spock takes this opportunity to abduct captain Pike and the ship, there’s no TAL-ing what can happen. Is this Spock from an alternate Trek timeline? Will Bones address the elephant on the bridge? Can Pike scratch that itch? It’s the episode that doesn’t say “fire” but leaves its finger on the button.

| 0:42.1 | Star Trek and make dick and fart jokes. It's a hell of a combination. Okay. I think it's important |
| 0:46.9 | that the show is in the right category if one were to for some reason look for mug related |
