Starfleet Ensign Compton was part of a landing party which answered a distress call from the planet Scalos on Stardate 5710.5. When the young officer was exposed to the contaminated Scalosian water on the planet’s surface, he was accelerated to the level of the Scalosians in order to be used as a mate. The process quickly caused Compton to become passive and forget his Starfleet training; he tried to stop Captain Kirk, who had also been accelerated, from preventing the Scalosian sabotage of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701. Compton’s loyalty resurfaced when his captain’s life was threatened by one of the alien intruders. Unfortunately, Compton was injured by one of the Scalosians while leaping to Kirk’s defense; in his altered state, the smallest injury could prove fatal, and the ensign’s susceptibility to cellular damage caused him to rapidly age and die.[1]
