On this episode of Star Trek Universe, Effie and I encounter the most advanced multitronic unit of the 23rd century: Richard Daystrom’s prototype M-5 computer. Otherwise known as Dick “Defense-Ain’t-Murder” Daystrom’s Destruction Device. We’ll get into this catalyst for Kirk’s existentialist nightmare, maman, and maybe even explain how this could have been the perfect series finale.
