Listen Later

In this episode of Trekking Through Compliance, we consider the episode Wolf in the Fold, which aired on December 22, 1967, Star Date 3614.9.

Scotty, Kirk, and McCoy beam down to Orgellius II for shore leave when Mr. Scott is accused of murder. His fingerprints are the only ones on the murder weapon, and he has a concussion and amnesia.

Mr. Scott claims that he felt the presence of a foul, cold, evil creature. A search of crime records shows the following pattern of unsolved mass murders: 1932 Shanghai, 1974 Kiev, 2105 Martian colony, and 2156 Heliopolis on Alpha Eridani 2. In order to avoid making the creature stronger by allowing him to feed off the fear of the crew, McCoy injects everyone with a tranquilizer. The creature returns to Hengist's body. However, Hengist is quickly subdued and tranquilized, and Spock transports him into space with the widest possible separation. Kirk and Spock must wait 6 hours for the tranquilizer to wear off their extremely "happy" crew.
