SYNOPSIS

After investigating a colony of rapidly-aging scientists, Kirk, Spock and McCoy begin to experience the same symptoms… aging decades each day…

REVIEW

Some amazing visuals in this episode with some impressive Romulans ships in that battle sequence in the Neutral Zone. I didn’t really buy Kirk’s arrogance towards Spock following the compentancy hearing but alls well that ends well. (Mind you, they didn’t seem too cut up about that poor medical officer that died…)
