Plot – The planet of the Klingons has been fighting the Earth for 25 years and is now close to an ecological catastrophe. Its inhabitants decide to lay their weapons down and to seek help. The crew of the Enterprise rushes to their aid. Two hitmen kill the Chancellor Gorkon, but Dr. Spock and Captain Kirk are accused and, after a trial, they are sentenced to hard labor. Once they are saved by the crew, they discover a traitor on board. The references to the end of the Cold War and Shakespeare’s quotes are interesting.
