Loved this. The Ent shuttles Elaan, the Dohlman of Elas and an ambassador for a warring planet to a ceremony that should bring peace to each other. In the meantime, they want to kill each other, the woman is pic.twitter.com/1cmQFsCm07

abusive, and of course Kirk falls for her. There's a space battle w/the Klingons here too. It's cornball as hell, but I love it. Elaan looks hot, which helps. Also loved the incidental music. Really fun ep. pic.twitter.com/ZbBd1ERvWI
