Teaser
Montgomery Scott is on medical leave on Argelius II, accompanied by Captain Kirk and Doctor McCoy, following a serious head injury caused by a female crewmember's error. McCoy believes that the sexually permissive Argelian culture will cure Scott's "total resentment towards women." On the planet, where the lifestyle and clothing of the Argelians, along with the architecture of their buildings, is akin to that of Middle Eastern countries on Earth, Kirk, McCoy and Scott are gathered together in...

1. "Captain's log, stardate 3614.9. Planet Argelius II. While on therapeutic shore leave, Mr. Scott has fallen under suspicion of having brutally murdered an Argelian woman. The chief city administrator, a Mr. Hengist, has taken charge of the investigation, but has learned little of value." Hengist, who is not a native Argelian, but from Rigel IV, confesses himself "speechless" about the incident, because Argelius is the last place in the galaxythat one would associate with violent crime.

When Scott regains consciousness, he is again disoriented and doesn't remember what happened. Kirk explains that Lieutenant Tracy is dead. Scott says that all he remembers is her taking the readings and then nothing else after that. He cries that he really cannot remember anything. Hengist returns with two men who were at the cafe at the night of the first murder. Tark, a musician who played for Kara's dance at the cafe, was her father; they'd put on shows together since Kara was a child. The...

Story and production
1. Robert Bloch, the writer of this teleplay, originally envisioned the Enterprise crew sipping drinks which had several differently colored layers, much like a pousse-café. The imbiber's mood would change as he drank each layer. This was dropped as being too complicated and costly to realize just for a throwaway moment of humor. According to David Gerrold in his book about the making of "The Trouble with Tribbles", network censors were concerned that it would appear that the crew was engaged...
Soundtrack
1. This is the first episode of the second season to completely utilize stock music, largely from Gerald Fried's scores for "Catspaw" and "Friday's Child". Fried's Finnegan jig from "Shore Leave" can also be heard. 2. Fried composed a new track for this episode to accompany Kara's dance (he recorded it during the scoring sessions for "Amok Time"); however, it went unused as the producers decided to reuse Vina's dance music from "The Cage" instead of Fried's composition. (Star Trek: The Origin...
Performers
1. This is one of two episodes that prominently feature Scott. The other episode is Season 3's "The Lights of Zetar". 2.
