Kirk..."Why Lincoln, Mr. Spock?" Spock... "Because he always has been ur hero, Jim." Kirk.."Not only mine Mr. Spock. You seem to like him too." Spock...."Not really. I was always more partial to Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson. I just wouldn't say anything with Uhura always on the bridge."
Another awful episode, this time redeemed only by comic value and those uniforms.
The meeting between Uhura and Lincon was cringe-worthy, but what was worse was the reaction to his slip -- boy, they really got the future wrong, didn't they?
@controlledfolly11 that's because he wasn't really abraham lincoln. His personality and appearance was fabricated by that rock-like species by reading Kirk's mind.
if the "evil" team was offered power, and it took more than the offer of their own lives and instead the threat of the death of the crew to "force" kirk and spock to fight, then shouldn't the difference have been obvious to the rock creature in the beginning? evil is selfish, and doesn't hesitate to fight for personal gain, good isn't necessarily the absence of violence, but fights for the good of others (in the parameters of this episode, mind you; i'm not making a generalization.)
I always loved this episode. The battle between good and evil, vividly illustrated using historical characters. It was a great idea! Stop badmouthing this episode!

You know i've noticed that some of the commentators on these videos always try to get so deep,i mean please just stop.This isnt school and you arent my teacher,just sit back and enjoy the show!
This movie failed to recognize the basic differences between good and evil, and Kirk failed to address the lava man's flawed logic. Knowledge does not supercede right to life, nor does the winner of a battle prove which is better, for while evil may win battles, it is still seen as evil. Thank God that evil will not win in the long run.
Well good wins because balance is a circle and our world is an oval. So one side of the balance of good and evil is stronger. It has been proven that good is the one with the slight advantage.
I agree that the episode failed in its attempts, but only because it didn't really address the point made at the end about want of power as opposed to desire to save others... the lava fellow should have recognized that that defined the difference, but it seemed like Kirk and Spock didn't even get it. Then they returned to the Enterprise without warning Star Fleet about the immense danger of this planet. Tsk.
Kirk and spock got it because the creatures obviously have the same curiosity about finding out new things.
And the experiment set up was flawed logically because the variables in the experiment were tainted by the experimenters own viewpoint of what G and E are.
Creatures,races, even individuals can have a flawed logic, especially an isolated species, that is based on their own customs, which are unknown. So with that perspective, the lava feels the experiment is sound and logical.
and Kirk would warn Starfleet in his Log entry, which would be analyzed by star fleet command, with his recommendation that the planet to be quarantined. Likely, star fleet would send an ambassador to "break bread" with the Lava creatures, especially to learn how they manipulate matter. Perhaps starfleet did, and this is the point where the technology for the TNG holo-deck was conceived.
nope because the commercials arent loud, the show is simply quiet. i answered why before on a bunch of episodes to random people that ask lol but ima not gonna again =p.
I think this episode had the most scarey looking creature on TOS that I can remember from my childhood. It makes you want to blow the planet up before leaving orbit... of course that monster would have read Kirk's thoughts beforehand.
In the pictures I see of Gengkis Khan, he isn't dark skinned as he is in this episode!
And in "The Trouble with Tribbles" the Klingons aren't dark skinned either. To make whites hate them more, they gave them dark skin, and Asian features.
Which I always thought was odd, being tht the themes of Star Trek was often about tolerance.
Lincoln was 6'4". Shatner is 5'9.5" The actor playing Lincoln looks like maybe no more than an inch taller than Shatner. I don't believe that Mr. Self-Absorbed would have allowed a 6'4" actor anywhere near the set.
Like how Worf on TNG wears the Klingon sash over his uniform. The officer may choose to wear variations of the Starfleet uniform according to their traditional garb. I'm sure it was Scotty's choice; its not like Starfleet said, "You're Scottish, Mr. Scott. Look like one."
The actual Kahless would never have agreed to attack like Green had them do in the midst of negotiations. That would not be honorable and warrior like.
Genghis Kahn is evil... I didn't know that. True he was a conqueror, but evil? His methods were no more harsh than others of his period. I agree with JIMJ32X, someone with Kahn's reputation would not follow another.
Hitler I think would have been a better choice. He committed great acts of evil in trying to exterminate an entire people.
As far as Obama is concerned, history has yet to tell. Will he bring the hope and change or is he yet another politician? I am starting to lose hope.
I agree Hitler would have been a better choice, but since this show was made only 25 years after the end of WW2 the network would have never considered it. The wounds were still too fresh. A good evil team would be: Hitler, Stalin, Saddam Hussein and Idi Amin.
There is a flaw with the evil ones in this episode. They are all supposed to be power crazed madmen, yet they are taking orders from colonel Green? They would most likely be warring amongst themselves for control, and Kirk Spock and the good guys would wipe them out. Still all in all a good episode, one of the better ones from the third season.
In a battle against good and evil...Why do all the bad guys get the vicious warrior types while the good side gets...Lincoln...and Seraph(?). It doesn't sound like fair game to me. :O
Unfortunately this ep is not one of the gems, tied for worst ep of the series along with Spock and the space hippies (people should campaign to have the name legally changed to this, since it should be called nothing else).
My only problem with this episode is how they portray Genghis Khan, one of the great military geniuses and rulers of all time, as a big lug. Someone didn't do their homework.
I agree. We know practically nothing about Khan himself. But he must have had quite a lot of inteligence to be able to come from a small raiding group to the conquorer of the known world. The only thing that protected Europe from him was his death.
Potential contradiction in the Star Trek universe around 23 minutes. There was a Klingon who set up his planet's philosophy of tyranny. But the guy did not have a bumpy head. The Klingons were all bumpy headed in the days of Archer, when they were pretty tyrannical. The genetically altered smooth headed Klingon's came about as a result of disease in that time.
Yea the galaxy does have a vested interest in the development of Earth because its a t.v show! What historical figures would they base their characters on other than real ones? Especially since aliens don't exist yet.
Kirk..."Why Lincoln, Mr. Spock?" Spock... "Because he always has been ur hero, Jim." Kirk.."Not only mine Mr. Spock. You seem to like him too." Spock...."Not really. I was always more partial to Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson. I just wouldn't say anything with Uhura always on the bridge."

Even die hard fans gotta admit that once roddenberry got fed up with NBC, the third season got terribly corny...although there are still some gems.

Potential contradiction in the Star Trek universe around 23 minutes. There was a Klingon who set up his planet's philosophy of tyranny. But the guy did not have a bumpy head. The Klingons were all bumpy headed in the days of Archer, when they were pretty tyrannical. The genetically altered smooth headed Klingon's came about as a result of disease in that time.

remember, the famous people are created according to Kirk and Spock's imagination

Yea the galaxy does have a vested interest in the development of Earth because its a t.v show! What historical figures would they base their characters on other than real ones? Especially since aliens don't exist yet.
