The Galileo Seven

 This episode gives new meaning to EPIC! Kirk is transporting Ambassador Ferris on a mission that he's been commissioned for to deliver medical supplies to Markus III. AS they're traveling they discover a Quasar and by Kirk's duty he has to stop and check it out. He sends seven of his crewman aboard a shuttle called the Galileo to check it out. The seven consist of Spock, McCoy, Scotty, a Yeoman who isn't Rand, a Lt. Boma, Lt. Latimer, and a Lt. Kelowitz. But what I find interesting is the color combos. It's two yellow guys, two red, and three blue. SCIENCE FOR THE WIN!

 Galileo gets caught in an ion storm and lands on a planet in the middle of the Quasar. Everyone's find but their out of fool and have too much weight to get the shuttle off the ground again. Spock figures they'd have to lose three members to be able to fly again.
   On the Enterprise, Kirk is working hard to find the missing Galileo but according to the Ambassador he has a deadline on how long he can  search for the crew. After that the Ambassador can take over the ship and take them to Markus III to deliver the supplies without hesitation or question.
  The crew of the Galileo don't exactly agree with Spock's means of logic and tend to get on him. Boma especially tends to refer to as a robot. A creature is discovered on the planet and kills the two yellow shirts. Boma wants to have a burial for them and both times Spock finds them very illogical. Finally Spock gives in and they are about to bury the second dead crewman when they are yet again attacked by the creature. Luckily by this point Scotty had figured out how to use the phasers for power and had generated enough to get the ship running.
  Eventually Kirk runs out of time and must start heading to Markus III, but refuses to give up without a complete fight.
   And neither does Spock. Using up their last bit of fuel he rockets them around the planet in desperation hoping the jet fuel would be seen by someone.
    Kirk sees it and just as the Galileo is about to crash through the atmosphere Kirk has them beamed up into the Enterprise. Now Kirk can go about his mission to Markus III.
  The episode ends with Kirk picking on Spock because desperation is an emotion. Though Spock refuses to believe he used an emotion but acted purely out of logic. The logical thing to do was act emotionally.
 "You're not gonna admit for the first time in your life you committed a purely human emotional act?"
 "No sir."
"Mr.Spock, you're a stubborn man."
"Yes sir."

And then EVERYONE and I mean EVERYONE on the bridge laughs at this. Cause apparently there is nothing funnier than a stubborn Vulcan.
