Stardate 4011.9: A transporter accident creates two Spocks!

Captain Kirk and the crew of the Starship Enterprise find themselves in the middle of an undeclared war waged by the Klingon Empire... The Organians should be consulted about the war but their entire planet has disappeared—or been destroyed. Mr. Spock enters the transporter chamber. His image should be flashed to Organia by the huge machine’s faster-than-light tachyons. But the experiment fails! Suddenly there are two Mr. Spocks! One must die...

But which one?
