Star Trek episode "The Savage Curtain"

"The Savage Curtain"

Season 3, Episode 22.

Another super-entity! This one is Abraham Lincoln in space! Literally, he is Lincoln, sitting in a chair in space. "I am Abraham Lincoln." WTF? And Gene Roddenberry wrote this one. Can you trust Honest Abe?

Kirk and Spock beam down and the aliens somehow prevented the beaming of their phasers and tricorders. They also deprive the Enterprise of almost all its power. Spock meets the great Surak of Vulcan on the surface. We find that they have been brought here by powerful rock-beings!

Genghis Khan, Colonel Green (who led some genocide war on Earth), Zora (some evil alien scientist), and Kahless the Unforgettable (a terrible Klingon) are all on the surface of the planet too. And it's all set up as some kind of battle to watch and test them.

The whole episode reminds me of a child's toy box, mine especially--different toy lines have been merged to make a cohesive story. I remember playing with Indiana Jones (from Temple of Doom, wish I still had that figure) and an Ewok that teamed up in an alternate dimension just so they could have adventures with or against my other toys.

Spock in hand-to-hand combat is losing to Genghis Khan when Kirk has to come and save him. Kirk beats Kahless and Green in hand-to-hand. Then the rock-alien basically shrugs and says he will try to understand these concepts of "good and evil." They were still able to control matter and create things easily, like these historical figures. What happens next? Does Starfleet send a follow-up mission, like damage control? Would they quarantine the planet like Talos IV in "The Menagerie"?
