Description:
Stardate 2341.4: The Enterprise is docked to Starbase 1 for repairs. Spock promises his fiancée T'Pring to spend time with her, after attending a briefing on a possible new ally of the Federation, the R'ongovian Protectorate. When representatives of that civilization unexpectedly show up on the Enterprise, Spock is late for his date, and T'Pring leaves his quarters. In the crew lounge, Christine Chapel, who is on a date herself, decides to give Spock relationship advice. Spock returns to T'Pring and performs a Vulcan soul sharing with her. But it takes an unexpected turn, and their two katras switch bodies. When Captain Pike appears and says that the R'ongovians would only continue to talk with Spock, the two explain the dilemma. T'Pring decides to join the meeting, in Spock's body. Spock, on the other hand, is confronted with the case of the Vulcan criminal Barjan. He is ready to surrender, which would have been T'Pring's task to take care of. Spock seeks the help of Nurse Chapel yet again and knocks down the reluctant Barjan when he mocks the two. The empathic R'ongovians continue to adapt to the person they are talking to, and no one can tell what they actually think about joining the Federation. Pike changes the tactics and begins to dissuade them because he thinks someone needs to address their concerns. They leave the conference room wordlessly, but they raise the Federation flag on their solar sailing vessel just before their departure. In the meantime, many crew members have decided to use the opportunity to go on shore leave, but La'an and Una prefer to stay aboard. They apprehend two ensigns in the airlock, who are trying to leave the ship without authorization. They were playing "Enterprise bingo", a game that involves a checklist of crazy things to do on the ship. La'an and Una decide to try it themselves, only to notice that there is no thrill to it unless they really break a rule. In sickbay, Dr. M'Benga and Nurse Chapel revert the katra transfer.
