PLOT
The Enterprise is under attack by Vaal, a big stone idol that the primitive
natives feed. It is really a machine that guides the actions and
environment of the populace. There are no children on the planet.
Everyone speaks perfect English except they don't know the words "children"
or "love". The natives laugh at Spock's speech.
FACTS
Kirk fires Scotty.
Exploding rocks.
Flowers shoot darts.
Chekov falls for Yeoman Martha London.
OPINIONS
The plot was a bit drafty with all the holes in it (knowing all but two
words of English, etc) and the acting wasn't the best I've seen, but not
the worst episode by any means.
