In What are Little Girls Made Of?, we discover that Nurse Chapel gave up a promising career in bio-research to board a starship. In order to, get this, track down her missing fiance. In orbit of the planet Exo 3, said fiance Roger Corby's last known whereabouts, Kirk is instructed to come down alone- until Corby hears Christine's voice. Redshirts inevitably die before Kirk figures out Corby's secret. Let this be a lesson to you, ladies. Don't bother tracking down that lost fiance, he may be a power mad android.
In Miri, the Enterprise discovers an exact copy of Earth. Exact. From the continents to the written language. What except laziness could explain that. Not the processes of geological, biological and social evolution. Upon beaming down to a seemingly deserted town, McCoy is attacked by a juvenile humanoid with obvious mutations. He dies, leaving a mystery of a high speed metabolism. A young girl named Miri is discovered hiding in a building. Kirk plays upon her obvious smittenness with him to get him on her side- which only work until jealousy kicks in. Dr McCoy is in a race against time to cure himself and the other Enterprise crew of the disease which killed the adults of Miri's planet.
