Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIt took about a month to complete this particular episode. After filming had begun, BarBara Luna was diagnosed with strep throat. Since the script called for Capt. Kirk to kiss her, they had to postpone the kissing scene for three weeks until she was medically cleared, since they couldn't risk William Shatner getting infected.
- GoofsWhen Dr. McCoy uses a hypo to gain entrance to Engineering for Scotty and himself: when the door first opens, the shoulder of the set crew can be seen briefly behind the actors.
- Quotes
Dr. McCoy: Jim, I think I liked him with a beard better. It gave him character. Of course almost any change would be a distinct improvement.
Captain James T. Kirk: What worries me is the easy way his counterpart fitted into that other universe. I always thought Spock was a bit of a pirate at heart.
Mr. Spock: Indeed, gentlemen. May I point out that I had an opportunity to observe your counterparts here quite closely. They were brutal, savage, unprincipled, uncivilized, treacherous - in every way splendid examples of homo sapiens, the very flower of humanity. I found them quite refreshing.
Captain James T. Kirk: [to McCoy] I'm not sure, but I think we've been insulted.
Dr. McCoy: I'm sure.

As Scotty and McCoy attempt to rig the transporters to replicate the conditions that transposed them, Kirk has to prevent arousing the suspicions of the alternate Spock and avoid being bumped off by Chekov, while Uhura does her best to keep the lusty parallel version of Sulu at arm's length.
Spock with a beard; George Takei playing a treacherous sex pest; Chekov thrown into an agony booth; good Kirk snogging the evil captain's woman Marlena (BarBara Luna); Uhura looking foxy in a sexier than usual outfit: it's all tremendous fun, one of the most enjoyable TOS episodes.
