NO ONE DIES IN THIS EPISODE. I PROMISE.
The above statement is a lie. In this penultimate episode of the season, Enterprise is called to an L-class planet to rescue a Federation ship that has crashed there. A landing party goes down, it's icy and cold. they get to the ship, no life-signs. The enter and it's full of blood and strewn body parts.
It's not long before they discover that, yes, there are *GORN* (!!!!!!) aboard and the battles for survival begin. An action-packed, heart-wrenching episode of Star Trek is what follows. And though things worked out in the end, I, Akie, may still be somewhat in denial...
At least Uhura decided to stay. There's that.
