Original Airdate: February 9, 1968
Stardate: 4768.3
Synopsis: Responding to a hail from deep within an ancient, unpopulated world, Kirk takes the risk and beams into a chamber where ancient life essences have been preserved. Using the captain's body as a temporary host, the leader Sargon explains how only a few survivors of a massively destructive war were so preserved, including his mate Thalassa and the rebels' leader, Henoch. Kirk agrees to loan them host bodies long enough to build permanent android shells for themselves in return for their shared knowledge, but Henoch -- ensconced in Spock's body -- has other ideas.

Guest Cast:
Diana Muldaur as Dr. Ann Mulhall
James Doohan as Sargon's Voice

Where was Spock's "essence" secretly (and temporarily) stored when Sargon sets out to defeat Henoch?
