Season 2 Episode 1 ('Amrok Time')

I think I saw Spock looking at porn, on this one. At least, he totally had some chick on his little screen and looked totally ashamed and hid it, when Kirk walked in. It was sort of adorable.

That's pretty much the tone of this whole episode, outside of the whole combat-to-the-death/Kirk-disobeying-Star Fleet Command thing. Apparently... Vulcans go full-on crazy when it is time to fuck. Yes, that was crass. So was the episode, a little bit, in its adorable sixties fashion.

Basically, Spock goes batshit-crazy cuz it is his mating season, so the Enterprise drops everything to get him married, and then it turns out his bride doesn't want him, so he has to fight Shatner to the death. Clear everything up? Probably not. But you can watch it and fill in the gaps that way, if you care!

Not Cold-War-y at all, and relatively unique so far, it wasn't really an interesting episode but it was at least not the same old crap. Bodes well for the new season!

Random Stats: a bottle of Argentenian wine, one shot of scotch, and two drinks with ginger-infused Skyy that really sucked.
