The Trekzone Review

This… this is where the series gets going. The trio dynamic begins to take shape with Bones and Kirk struggling to understand why Spock would disobey orders. We also get some of our first glimpses – in cannon – of the way things work with the computer and Starfleet orders.

I decided not to cap the clips from The Cage, instead find them here.
