Summary[]

James T. Kirk is on leave after the ISS Farragut encountered a "vampire cloud" and most of the crew was killed, all at Kirk's behest. Kirk uses his time off to gather information about Christopher Pike, captain of the ISS Enterprise, in order to assassinate him and gain command of the Enterprise. With the help of Spock and Marlena Moreau, Kirk learns that Pike is under the influence of the Talosians. Also as part of his leave, Kirk is forced to get a mental evaluation, so he goes to the Tantalus colony to have his old friend Simon Van Gelder provide him with one. While on the colony, Kirk gains control of the Tantalus device. Kirk then uses this device to assassinate Pike and Number One, gaining command of the Enterprise for himself and the first officer's position for Spock, who then lead the Enterprise againt the Talosians, killing them, ironically by destroying the planet's oxygen.
