Star Trek - The Original Series, Episode 3: The Corbomite Maneuver [VHS]
$12.95
The intensity of this episode and the calmness of most of the Enterprise crew in the face of imminent destruction demonstrate the professionalism of Star Fleet personnel. Crewman Bailey is the exception, when faced with the unknown; he panics and is relieved by Kirk. When Balok, the commander of the alien ship, states his intention to destroy the Enterprise, Kirk argues his case, but when that fails, he engages in an elaborate bluff. He claims that a device called Corbomite has been incorporated into the Enterprise, which will cause any destructive energy to be returned to the attacker, destroying the attacker.
The ruse apparently works, as the attack is suspended and a small ship is then used to transport the Enterprise to another location. When the Enterprise breaks away, Balok's small ship is damaged and sends out a distress signal. Rather than flee, Kirk chooses to beam over and assist the crew. In a gesture of effective command, Kirk allows Bailey to be a part of the away team.
To their surprise, they learn that there is only one person in the crew, and he appears to be a human child. The nasty "person" that appeared on their viewing screen was an animated dummy. In closing, the Federation has made a new friend and crewman Bailey has accepted the assignment of being the representative of the Federation to Balok and his species.
There is substantial substance to this story, when humans encounter other species, the initial contact will be unpredictable and problematic. An intelligent and technologically advanced species would be very sensible in taking a duplicitous approach to first contact. By appearing to be something else, as did Balok in this episode, the new species would be able to see whether the behavior of humans would match their lofty rhetoric. Also, the people who made the first contact must be calm, collected and willing to die rather than take a chance in making a major mistake when encountering another species for the first time. This is a very underrated episode; I rank it in the top ten of all episodes of the original series.
