KIRK:
Captain's log, stardate 5029.5.

Responding to a distress call
from our scientific colony on Triacus,

we are beaming down to investigate.

Professor Starnes?

It's Kirk.

He's dead, Captain.

He didn't seem to know me.

Cyalodin.

Self-inflicted.

STARNES: Must destroy
ourselves. Alien upon us.

The enemy from within! The enemy!

All this. Self-inflicted.

Mass suicide.

[CHILDREN'S VOICES]

You did not! You missed me!

Hi. Who are you?

- Kirk of the starship Enterprise.
- I'm Tommy Starnes.

Er... This is Mary, Steve, Ray and Don.

Come on. Play with us. Come on.

♪ Ring around the rosy,
pocketful of Posey ♪

♪ Ashes, ashes, we all fall down ♪

[CHILDREN LAUGH AND SCREAM]

KIRK:
Space, the final frontier.

These are the voyages
of the starship Enterprise.

Its five-year mission:
To explore strange new worlds,

to seek out new life
and new civilizations,

to boldly go where no man
has gone before.

KIRK:
Captain's log, supplementary.

We have buried the members
of the Starnes exploration party.

Everyone has been deeply affected
by what has happened here,

with some important exceptions.

Let's go and play.

- No sign of grief?
- No indication of any kind.

- Fear?
- They seem completely unafraid.

- You insist it's traumatic shock?
- I don't insist but it's possible.

A child suppresses the fact that both
parents are dead? I can't believe it.

Humans do have a capacity
for believing what they choose

and excluding what is painful.

- Not these children. It's incredible.
- What they saw is incredible.

The way those deaths occurred, any
reaction is possible, including amnesia.

That's my diagnosis. Until specific
tests can be made, it remains that.

I'll be guided by that opinion,
for the present.

What about questioning them?

Not until traumatization weakens

or you come up
with another explanation.

Forcing them to see this experience
could cause permanent damage.

Accepted, Doctor.

Be careful.

I'm... I'm sorry, Captain Kirk.

Children? Listen to me. It's late
and it's time to go up to the ship.

Oh, not yet.

- We're just beginning to have fun.
- Not now.

I'm sorry. You'll go up with the doctor.

Come on. It's time to be going.

Whatever happened here
is locked up inside those children.

The attack on Starnes' party
must surely have been unprovoked.

Attack? Mass suicide
is what it seems to be.

I stand corrected. Induced
would be a more precise term.

Induced by an outside force.

- Such as?
- The release of bacteria.

Or a helpless mental depression
and a state of suicidal anxiety

could have been chemically induced.

What would make
the children immune?

I do not know. But it is possible.

The children would have been
exempted by conscious design.

- A valid assumption, I would say.
- And their present behavior

explained by a fear of punishment.

Or the promise of reward.

An attack by an unknown assailant

on an uninhabited planet.

This planet is uninhabited,
to the best of our information?

At present, yes.

- Odd.
- Getting a reading?

There seems to be some disturbance
coming from that cave.

Picking up any life-forms?

Definitely not humanoid, Captain.

Impossible to make
any specific identification.

Readings do not correlate
with any known information.

That's strange.

That's... very strange.

I'm getting a feeling of anxiety
in this place.

It doesn't sound very scientific,
does it?

But it's strongest right here.

I'm not aware of it.

Maybe that's what's registering
on your tricorder.

I was not aware that anxiety
could be registered on sensors.

No...

Of course. That's... that's me.

That's me.

But what's causing your tricorder
to react?

- Are you all right, Captain?
- Yes, I'm fine. I'm... fine.

Just some sympathetic vibration
with what happened here.

Let's get back to the ship.

I want to check out those tapes
from Professor Starnes' tricorder.

And I am going to question
those children.

All right.
Each card is a different flavor.

Take your pick and the computer
will mix a combination.

Call out your favorite.

- Vanilla!
- Chocolate!

OK!

Well. Would you like
a surprise, Stevie?

It's coconut and vanilla.
They're both white.

There, there, now.

There are unpleasant surprises
as well as pleasant ones.

That was your unpleasant one. What
would you like for your pleasant one?

Chocolate wobble and pistachio.

Well, coming right up.

And peach.

All right. It's going to be
a wonderful surprise.

Tests show no evidence of lying.

They behave as though
nothing's wrong.

They're sound physically,

and no signs of substances
to account for their present state.

- I have no answers.
- There has to be one.

Can't it wait till we get to a hospital?

We're not leaving until we know
what went on, or what's going on.

I won't prevent you questioning them,
but it could harm the children.

It could be worse for them if I don't,
and for us too.

Be careful.

After this, we can all play games.

What's it like getting your ice cream
out of a computer?

- That was fun.
- Well, you're all having a good time.

- I think I'll join you. Is that OK?
- Please do.

All right. I'll have a dish too.

A very small one.
It's better than Triacus, isn't it?

- That dirty old planet?
- What's so good about that place?

You weren't there very long.
You don't know.

- I don't think your parents liked it.
- Yes, they did.

- Mine sure did.
- Parents like stupid things.

I don't know. Parents like children.

Ha. That's what you think.

I'm sure your parents loved you.
That's why they took you to Triacus.

So they wouldn't be far away from you
for a long time.

That would make them unhappy.
They'd miss you.

I'm sure that
you would miss them too.

Busy, busy...

Busy, busy, busy, busy!

CHILDREN: Busy, busy, busy, busy!

- Guess what we are?
- I know. A swarm of bees.

Watch out. Watch out. I'll sting you.

Now, wait a minute.

Can we have
more ice cream, please?

I don't think so. It'll
spoil your dinner.

See? They all say it.

Yeah.

You've had a busy day. Nurse Chapel
will see you to your quarters.

Very good idea. Come on.

- Do we have to?
- Tommy, just a moment.

I'd like to ask you a question.
Come and sit down.

Will you tell me what you saw?

Saw where?

In the cave. On the planet. On Triacus.

- You were there.
- Did you see your father today?

- I saw him.
- Did he seem upset?

- He was very upset.
- What about?

- I didn't ask him.
- What was going on to upset him?

How should I know?
He was always upset, just like you.

I'm not upset with you,
or your friends.

We invited you aboard the Enterprise.
Why would I do that if I didn't like you?

You have your reasons.

Aren't you unhappy
about leaving Triacus?

That place? That's for adults.

Aren't you upset
about leaving your parents?

My parents? They love it down there.

Always busy.

They're happy.

Can I go now? I'm tired too, you know.

- Yes, certainly. I'll take you.
- I know the way.

Kirk to security.
Post a guard on the children.

They're to be kept
under constant watch.

ALL: Hail, hail, fire and snow,

call the angel, we will go,

far away, for to see,

friendly angel come to me.

Hail, hail, fire and snow,

call the angel, we will go,

far away, for to see,

friendly angel come to me...

You have done very well, my friends.

You have done what must be done.

You have come aboard the Enterprise.

Now, our destination
is a Federation settlement.

Captain Kirk will undoubtedly
choose a closer station.

Do not let that deter you.
Marcos XII has millions of people on it.

Nearly a million
will join us as our friends.

The rest will be our enemies.

Together with our other friends who
will join us, we will defeat our enemies

as we defeated them on Triacus.

A million friends on Marcos
will make us invincible.

No one will tell us where to go,
when to sleep, where to eat.

The universe will be mine
to command, yours to play in.

To accomplish this great mission,
we must first control the Enterprise.

To control the ship,
we first must control the crew.

You know how to do that.
That is your next task.

And as you believe,
so shall you do, so shall you do.

As you believe,
so shall you do, so shall you do.

As you believe,
so shall you do, so shall you do.

Maintaining standard orbit.

Any report
from planet's security team?

Everything is quiet, sir.

I have extracted the salient portion
of Professor Starnes' tapes.

Among the technical facts gathered,

he also
offered unscientific hypotheses.

Let's see them.

STARNES:
Log date 5025.3.

Ever since our arrival on Triacus,

I've felt a growing feeling
of uneasiness.

First, I attributed it to the usual case
of nerves associated with a new project.

However, I found the rest of my
associates also bothered by anxieties.

The only ones not affected
are the children.

They find the whole thing
an exciting adventure.

Ah, to be young again.

Let's see some more of these
unscientific hypotheses, Mr. Spock.

5032.4.

The feeling of anxiety we've all been
experiencing is growing worse.

There is another portion which I think
you'll find particularly interesting.

5038.3.

Professor Wilkins
finished his excavation today.

Although the civilization here was
destroyed by a natural catastrophe,

it would appear one of our race
took refuge in the cave.

For our efforts, we are becoming
only more apprehensive.

As if some unseen force
were influencing us...

- What happened?
- Unknown.

I didn't see you come in.

After we leave here,
can you take us to Marcos XII?

We'll probably take you
to a Federation starbase.

- I have relatives on Marcos XII.
- I'm sorry.

It's not in our patrol area. Mr. Spock,
we'll pursue this in my quarters.

Can I stay here and watch?
I'll be very quiet.

All right, Tommy. Lieutenant,
have Dr. McCoy report to my quarters.

Mr. Leslie?

- Hi, there.
- Hi.

What is that?

The planet Triacus.

- Will we see it all the time we're here?
- Yes, we will.

- All the time we're here.
- He sees Triacus on the screen.

He thinks he sees it.

Mr. Sulu, the screen. We're out of orbit.

- Will we reach Marcos XII soon?
- Very soon.

When did we change course?

- We haven't changed course.
- What do you mean?

- Look at your control monitor.
- We're still in orbit.

Have you gone blind?
That's not orbiting position.

- Don't touch the controls.
- What the devil are you doing?

- We must remain in this orbit.
- You blind fool.

Can't you see what's in front of you?
We're not in orbit.

I won't disobey orders
from the bridge.

You are. Now step aside.

You're losing control of yourself, sir.

Not yet.

STARNES: I'm being influenced
to do things that do not make sense.

I even went so far
as to call Starfleet Command

to request a spaceship
to be used as a transport.

It was only when I didn't know
what to transport

that I realized
my mind was being directed.

I decided to send a dispatch
to Starfleet, warning them.

God forgive us.
We must destroy ourselves.

Alien upon us. The enemy from within.

The enemy?!

He never completed the entry.
The dispatch wasn't sent.

Except for scenes of family life,
games with the children,

that is the complete record.

Whatever overwhelmed them
must have done so fast.

Otherwise the professor would have
provided details of the experience.

He was an excellent scientist and
tireless in his pursuit of the truth.

- That could be what destroyed him.
- Evil does seek to maintain power

- by suppressing the truth.
- Or misleading the innocent.

Misleading the innocent? I wonder.

Do you mean
the children may be involved?

Yes, Doctor. What do we know
about the race that lived here?

According to legend, Triacus
was the seat of a band of marauders

who were at constant war
throughout Epsilon Indi.

After centuries, the destroyers were
destroyed by those they preyed upon.

- Is that the end of it?
- No. Like so many legends,

this one has a frightening ending.

It warns that the evil is awaiting
a catalyst to set it again into motion

and send it marauding
across the galaxy.

Is it possible
that the evil found the catalyst?

- I was speaking of a legend.
- Most legends have their basis in fact.

I read you, but as medical officer,
I must warn you.

Unless the normal grief is tapped
and released from these children,

you are treading dangerously.

I understand your diagnosis
and I'll respect it.

But not to the exclusion of the safety
of the Enterprise. Thank you.

What other expeditions
have visited Triacus?

According to Federation records,
this is the first.

What did Starnes say
about the unseen force?

He said an unseen force
was influencing him.

He recognized it, was fighting it,
and canceled his request for a ship.

A ship? Yes. A ship for Triacus.
But why? And by whom?

Security detachment. Ready for relief
duty. Assemble in transporter room.

I'll have questions for that detachment
when they're beamed up.

It's about time we found out
whether Starnes' enemy within

is on the planet below
or here on board with us.

Come on.

Your tour of duty will last one hour.
Be prepared with your communicators

to report any alien beings.
Don't wait to investigate.

Beam up the security detachment
from Triacus.

Spock?

What's wrong?

- I can't lock on to the coordinates.
- Why not?

It appears
we are no longer orbiting Triacus.

That's impossible.

If we're not orbiting Triacus,
the men I beamed down are dead.

Captain,
we are no longer orbiting Triacus.

Activate the bridge monitor screen.

Captain to bridge.
We're not orbiting Triacus.

With all respects, you're wrong.
I have Triacus on my screen now.

You're off course. I'm coming up.

ALL: Hail, hail, fire and snow,

call the angel, we will go,

far away, far to see,

friendly angel come to me.

Sulu...

Call the angel, we will go,

far away, far to see,

friendly angel, come to me.

Friends, we have reached
a moment of crisis.

The enemy
have discovered our operation.

But they are too late. They no longer
control the ship. We do.

We shall prevail.
They will take us any place we desire.

So back to your stations.
Maintain your controls.

If resistance mounts, call upon their
beast. Their beast will serve us well.

The fear in each one of them
is the beast which will consume him.

Remember how it was on Triacus?

If they resist,
so shall it be on the Enterprise.

If you need me, call and I will appear.

Our new goal is Marcos XII.

It is our new beginning.
We must not falter.

Go to your stations.
Mary, you remain with me.

Helmsman, disregard what you see
on the screen, what you think you see.

Set a course for Starbase 4.

- Do you hear me?
- Yes, sir.

Lieutenant Uhura.

Contact Starbase 4. Tell them
we're bringing the children there.

Tell Starfleet Command
I suspect them of being alien in nature

and I want a thorough investigation
made upon our arrival.

Aye, aye, sir.

Lieutenant?

- What are you staring at?
- I see my death.

A long death. Disease and pain.

I see my death.

- There's nothing there.
- Oh, God!

Captain, don't let it be.

Mr. Spock, you make the call
to Starfleet.

I ordered you to change course.

Mr. Sulu...

Stay away from the controls.
If you touch them, we'll be destroyed.

Mr. Sulu, there's nothing there.

Captain, why are we
bothering Starfleet?

- That was an order.
- This bridge is under complete control.

- Complete...
- There is no need.

Take a look around you.

I cannot obey your order, Captain.

Take Mr. Sulu to his quarters.
He's relieved of duty.

[TALKS BACKWARDS]

Did you hear me?

Captain, we must get off this bridge.

We must... I'm losing command.

I'm losing my ability to command.

I'm losing the Enterprise.

I'm losing command.

I'm losing the Enterprise.

The ship is sailing on and on.

I'm alone.

Alone.

Alone.

- I'm losing command.
- Captain.

I've lost command.

I've lost the Enterprise.

Jim...

I've got command.

I've got command.

- I've got command.
- Correct, Captain.

- Where to, Captain?
- Auxiliary control, my Vulcan friend.

This ship is off course.

Scotty.

Override the navigation system
and plot a course for Starbase 4.

I can't do that, sir.

- Why not?
- These are sensitive instruments.

I will not have you upset their delicate
balance. We'd be lost, forever lost.

Go away now.
Go away or we'll kill you.

Scotty...

Listen to me. The Enterprise
has been invaded by alien beings.

If we take it to Marcos, millions will die
the way they died at Triacus.

No, I'm all right, Spock.
My beast is finished. It won't return.

So long as the children are present,
there is danger. They are the carriers.

They're not the alien beings.
They're children being misled.

They are followers.
Without them, evil cannot spread.

They're children.

430 men and women
on the Enterprise

and the ship itself
are endangered by these children.

They don't know the evil
they're doing.

Perhaps that is true.

But the evil within them
is spreading fast

and unless we can find a way
to remove it...

We'll have to kill them.

- Captain Kirk?
- What is it?

I have been instructed
to place you and Spock under arrest.

- By whose order?
- Starfleet Command, sir.

Where did you hear
this order, Ensign?

Listen to me. This order is false.
I want you to return to your stations.

Sorry, but I must insist you and Spock
come with me to the detention section.

Ensign, listen to me.

Do not force me to kill you, sir.
I will if I have to.

- Will you come peacefully?
- This is a false order, Ensign.

- I have never disobeyed an order.
- I know that.

- But there's an alien aboard the ship.
- I cannot disobey.

- You will disobey this order!
- Starfleet supersedes your order.

Enough.

Take these men to detention
and join me on the bridge.

Enterprise will never reach Marcos XII.
It will not land there.

- The crew will take us. They believe.
- The crew... does not understand.

When they understand,
they won't take you there.

- They will!
- We are going to Marcos!

We're going to follow our friend.

Your friend? Where is that stowaway?
Why does he hide?

He will come if we call him.

We don't need him.
We're not afraid of you.

Good. I'm glad you're not afraid of me.

But your leader is afraid.
What's he afraid of?

- He's not afraid of anybody.
- Or anything.

He's afraid to be seen.

And when the crew sees
and hears him,

they'll understand he is not their friend,
and they won't follow him.

- He is our friend.
- Then let him show himself.

Bring him out.
Let him prove that he is my friend

and I'll... I'll follow him
to the end of the universe.

No!

Mr. Spock. Play back the chant

the children sang
to summon up the Gorgan.

Hail, hail, fire and snow.

Call the angel, we will go,

far away, for to see,

friendly angel come to me.

Hail, hail, fire and snow,

call the angel, we will go,

far away, for to see,

friendly angel, come to me.

The time has come
to see the world as it is.

Come on.

Who has summoned me?

I did, Gorgan. My beast has gone.

It lost its power in the light of reality.
I command again.

And I ordered you here.

No, Captain. I command here.

My followers are strong and faithful
and obedient.

That's why we take what is ours
wherever we go.

You take from those
who do not know you.

And we know you.

- Then you know I must win.
- Not if we join together to fight you.

Foolish. You will be destroyed.

I would ask you to join me,
but you are gentle.

And that is a grave weakness.

- We are also very strong.
- Strength is canceled by gentleness.

You are full of goodness.
Such as you cannot be changed.

You were like the parents.
You must be eliminated.

Children, I have pictures of you
on Triacus. Would you like to see?

Mr. Spock? The pictures?

I forbid it.

- Why should you fear it?
- I fear nothing.

So we were told. Mr. Spock,
the pictures. The children are waiting.

They would not help transport us.
They were against us.

They had to be eliminated.

Tommy's father would have
destroyed you, but he was too late.

You were also too late.
The kind ones always are.

Not always. Not this time.

You can't hide from them.
They see you as we see you.

They know what you are.

- Even the children learn.
- You are my future generals.

Together we can raise armies
of followers. Go to your posts.

The first great victories are upon us.
You will see.

We have millions of friends
on Marcos XIII.

We shall exterminate all
who oppose us.

Our purpose cannot be
contaminated by those who disagree,

who do not understand.

- They must be annihilated.
- Don't be afraid.

Look at him.

Without you children, he's nothing.

The evil remains within him.

I command you! I command you!

To your posts. Carry out your duties
or I will destroy you.

You will be swept aside
to make way for the strong.

Look how ugly he really is.
Look at him and don't be afraid.

Death. Death to you all.
Death to you all.

Death to you all.

It's all right.

They're crying. I don't know how
it happened, but it's good to see.

It's all right.
It's all right, isn't it, Doctor?

Yes, it's all right.

We can help them now.

- Marcos XII dead ahead, sir.
- Reverse course, Mr. Sulu.

Course reversed, Captain.

- Set course for Starbase 4.
- Yes, sir.
