Spock, Kirk, Scotty, McCoy, & Scotty are captured and forced to play out the battle at the OK Corral in order to return to the ship. It's a simple premise, but I always liked it. Due to real world issues, pic.twitter.com/7dFCXxk38F

the budget was radically cut and they could only build sets with the fronts of them. It looked weird, but fit the unreality of this story. I enjoyed this now as much as I did when I was a kid. Good stuff. pic.twitter.com/YJ7NFYxmGH

It always amused me that the font used for the buildings was the same as the show’s title font.
