Star Trek (s03e22)

The Savage Curtain

by Gene Roddenberry and Arthur Heinemann, directed by Herschel Daugherty

The critics agree that this episode lives in the bottom ten of all Star Trek episodes, but we kinda liked seeing Lincoln and Surak, even if Spock concludes that they were mere sims.
— Michael Main
Conjecture, Captain, rather than explanation: It would seem that we were held in the power of creatures able to control matter and to rearrange molecules in whatever fashion was desired, so they were able to create images of Sarak and Lincoln after scanning our minds and using their fellow creatures as source matter.

I saw this in the theater with Deb Baker and Jon Shultis during a winter trip to Pittsburgh for a small computer science education conference.

— Michael Main
