Part II Captain's log, stardate 10:26.8 – Upon beaming down to the planet Gamma Alpha V, we've discovered something incredible – a city peopled by every famous person who ever walked the Earth! While examining a strange silver tower in the city's center, Mr. Spock's arrival has inspired him to study Vulcan history – for which he will need Spock's brain. However, Lazarus has now grown bored of their reminiscences. The androids constructed the city around the antenna, and Lazarus then built more androids and turned them into duplicates of famous people from Earth's past. One day one of Lazarus' androids was caught in a burst of energy from the computer and was transformed into Benjamin Franklin in both body and mind. The spire is a receiver for the brain-waves of famous people throughout Earth's history, which are recorded on punch-cards. He gathered his android assistants and traveled to Gamma Alpha V, where the androids set up his computer in the underground cavern and built the silver spire above it. Lazarus explains how he fled Earth after being discredited by a computer malfunction. He is the prisoner of a man who identifies himself as Alexander Lazarus, an Earth historian. In a cavern miles beneath the city, Spock is seated in a chair, his hands manacled behind his back. When Kirk is unable to contact Spock, the three Enterprise officers rush to the silver spire, where Sulu is recovering from a blow to the head.
Kirk orders Spock and Sulu to investigate the tower, while Washington introduces Kirk, McCoy and Uhura to some of the city's other residents, including Emperor Nero, Abraham Lincoln, and Anton York, 45th President of the United States of America, who refers to Kirk and his crewmates as "new additions". A huge silver spire in the center of the city is off-limits to them. Washington explains that the city's people have been there for as long as they can remember.
Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Sulu and Uhura beam down to the city, where Kirk is stunned to recognize the first inhabitant he approaches as George Washington.
Levelling his phaser at the historical figures, Kirk says they will go down fighting.Ĭaptain's log, star date 10:26.3 – We've established orbit around Gamma Alpha V to verify findings of the robot probe that discovered this planet ten years ago.Īlthough the probe reported the planet as uninhabited, Spock's sensors now detect a large city on the surface. Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Sulu and Uhura are surrounded by famous people from Earth history wielding clubs and swords.
