Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAfter the scene where Spock is weeping, Leonard Nimoy's fan mail increased exponentially. Viewers were enthralled with the idea that Spock was secretly a reservoir of love and passion instead of an empty emotional void. This reaction inspired further scripts which explored Spock's inner makeup.
- GoofsTormolen snaps that Sulu doesn't "rank" (outrank) him. Tormolen is a lieutenant junior grade (the only one seen in the series), while Sulu is a full lieutenant. So technically, Sulu does outrank him.
- Alternate versionsSpecial Enhanced version Digitally Remastered with new exterior shots and remade opening theme song. A highlight of the new special effects is a new establishing shot of the outpost, replacing generic footage of a frozen landscape.

Featured review
PSI 2000 Goes Out with a Bang
This is a great example of how to tie character development into the plot of your episode. The use of a bug to unearth the crew's inhibitions and self-doubt makes for a great episode and good way for the audience to find out more about these characters. Spock's struggle with emotion, Kirk's conflict between finding romantic love and maintaining Captain-like control, Sulu's... fencing hobby?
All of this further's the development of these characters and makes the audience identify with their plights. Mix this with a little bit of peril and you have yourself a solid episode.
