Stardate SD3715.3: The crew discovers a paradise controlled by computer.

Beaming down to Gamma Trianguli VI, an Enterprise landing party discovers a seeming paradise — until they encounter poisonous plants, exploding rocks, and extremely dangerous weather conditions. In contrast, the planet's inhabitants are a gentle, childlike people who call themselves the Feeders of Vaal. Vaal is a computer constructed "in the dim time" many years before by unknown entities, which survives by metabolizing the natives' offerings of food, and it is draining the Enterprise of energy as well. The landing party must defeat Vaal and its people, led by the high priest Akuta, before the machine can destroy the starship. After a fight with the villagers, and Mr. Spock's encounter with a lightning bolt, the starship's phasers destroy Vaal.
