1.02 "Charlie X"

Early appearance for the green Captain's shirt of Kirk's.

These guys in the horrible peach coloured uniforms can't wait to ditch him, you can tell right away he's a wrong 'un.

It takes Charlie all of 2 seconds to start staring Janet up and down. Dirty beggar.

Charlie: "Is that a girl?" Kirk: "Sure. I call her number 74, 369." Hard to tell which of them is worse.

"Captain Kirk is one of a kind!" says Bones. Ain't that the truth. 

Obviously this is so 60s it hurts, but Charlie slapping Janice's backside is ridiculous even by 's standards.

Bones reckons Kirk will make a good father figure for Charlie. Really, Bones, really?

Crazy scene. Spock busts out a mad harp solo and Uhura makes up a song to the tune on the hoof.

If Scotty starts breakdancing, I'm out.

There's definitely something not right about Charlie. He gives Uhura evils and she can't speak...

Bizarre card tricks now. Devil child.

Jim's back in the yellow. Charlie slaps his arse. Average day on the Enterprise.

"There's no right way to hit a woman," explains Kirk. THAT's the best you can do? How did this joker become a Captain?

"Captain, I put meatloaf in the ovens and now there's Turkeys, real Turkeys!" Shit just got real.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: 3-Dimensional Chess is for wankers.

Charlie's mind tricks don't seem to work so well on Spock, so he mangles the chess pieces instead. Poor horsies.

Rand has had enough & tells Kirk he needs to sort it. Kirk being the sensitive, understanding, boss he is, nods & smirks.

Kirk's attempts at explaining the birds & the bees are diabolical. What made McCoy think he'd make a good dad?

Charlie needs teaching so naturally Kirk strips to his waist and wrestles him.

Charlie magics a guy away for laughing, so Kirk gets in a thin-strip-of-light-across-the-eyes staring match with him.



No idea what sort of logic Spock's employing here; Kirk has to sort Charlie and the others shouldn't get in the way.

Charlie's completely out of control now; running the Enterprise, making Spock recite (admittedly cool) poetry...

Now he's torn it - Charlie's disappeared Janice, and broken Spock's legs.

Charlie steals someone's entire face for laughing now. Creepy stuff.

"If we could tax his power..." Hang on Captain Cameron, how's about you sort out Amazon and Starbucks first?

Shatner falls to the floor and you can see the join. In the floor, I mean.

Janice is back, pink nighty and all.

The Thasians have come to tell Charlie it's bedtime.

So Charlie promises to be good and Kirk talks floaty green head man out of punishing him. Job done! That's it for .

TTFN! K.
Coming Soon... Planet of Fire
