In 2207, Balok was the commander of the First Federation Starship Fesarius. On Stardate 1512.1, Balok and the Fesarius encountered the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701, of the similarly-named United Federation of Planets.
Though the encounter began on a tense note, Balok—who initially used an intimidating-looking puppet that he described as "the Hyde to my Jekyll" while dealing with the Enterprise crew—soon discovered that the Enterprise crew was sincere in its claims of peaceful exploration, and opened a dialogue with Captain James T. Kirk. The Enterprise's navigator, Lieutenant David Bailey, volunteered to remain with Balok as an unofficial ambassador.[1]
