Synopsis

The U.S.S. Enterprise and her crew are diverted by a signal from Christopher Pike, the former captain of the U.S.S. Enterprise, to Starbase 11. When they arrive, they find Captain Christopher Pike severely crippled and paralyzed by radiation burns. Unbeknownst to Captain Kirk, Spock beams himself and Pike to the ship and locks the ship's controls on a course set for Talos IV -- a planet that Starfleet regulations has deemed absolutely off-limits to all vessels. Forced by the extreme actions of the Vulcan first officer, Kirk and Commodore Mendez convene a court-martial against Spock.
