Thank goodness they had those big, sturdy, plastic rocks to hide behind while the Enterprise was firing - otherwise they might have been hit by pieces of glowy melty temple

I really liked this episode. this and "balance of terror" so far. they both had that quality where they run just as all the other episodes do, but when they finish, with no spectacularly unpredictable end, they leave you in a nice plaintive mood. the title works well.

@samhainaz no the episode is titled "who mourns for adonais?" adonais alludes to Shelley's elegy for Keats called "Adonais: somethingsomethigndgdng"
