Android Kirk: In the 1966
episode of Star Trek named "What Are Little Girls Made
Of?" Dr. Korby replaces Captain James T. Kirk with an
android. The plan is to take over the Enterprise and fill the
universe with robots. Kirk is able to alter his replacement's
programming to key Spock into the fact something is not quite right.
So, in the end Dr. Korby (a robot), Dr. Brown (a robot), Andrea (a
beautiful robot who has her programming altered by a kiss from Kirk,
naturally), Ruk (an evil robot), and robot Kirk all die in a kind of
robot holocaust. There is a question that must be asked here. If Ruk
and Korby are able to create robots shouldn't they also be able to
make enough robots to manufacture their own starship. In the long
term it would have saved a lot of robot's lives.
