'''[[Stardate]] 6720.8: ''An accident leaves Spock delusional'''''

To investigate a planet with limited technology and have the capability to blend in with the populace, members of the crew have a device surgically implanted that enables the user to successfully mind-link with an inhabitant. The procedure is thoroughly researched and the natives of the planet are specifically screened for compatibility with their [[Starfleet]] hosts. An act of sabotage links [[Spock]] with a madman who believes he is the planet’s messiah, making Spock act irrationally and believe he is their savior.

'''Written by''' [[Theodore R. Cogswell]] and [[Charles A. Spano Jr.]]
