bidden, slave!
You need a lesson in
how to use your betters.
- Who's your master?
- I'm a free man, sir.
Then you want better
manners, free man.
Defend yourself!.
[ Crowd Laughing ]
Heating this boulder may
provide some temporary heat.
[ Phaser Clicks ]
What's wrong?
Something's preventing
my phaser from operating.
[ Laughing ]
Oh, thank you, man.
I thought I'd be limbered sure...
when that gull
caught me cutting his purse.
What's that?
Are you all right?
Oh, I took you
to be an angler,
but you're none
of us, are ya?
Well, you're
a bully fine coe...
- for all of that.
- Thank you.
What a handsome dish ya served them,
the coxco-- Ooh.
You better come back with me to
the library. You'll be safe there.
Dr. McCoy can see
to those bruises.
I'm game, love.
Lead and I'll follow.
- Where's "library"?
- It's right over th--
Where's the captain, Spock?
We were right behind him.
What's with ya, man?
Let's make off...
before coxcombs come
with shoulder clappers.
No, no, come here. Do you
remember when you first saw me?
Do you remember whether
I came through some kind of door?
Oh, I think the rum gull
must've kicked you in the head.
Come on, love. I know a leech
who'll ask no questions.
- No. No. It must be here someplace.
- [McCoy]Jim!
-Jim, can you hear us?
- Bones? Spock?
Captain, we hear you,
but we cannot see you.
Are you all right?
- We must've missed each other.
- [Spock]Agreed.
Apparently they've all escaped
the destruction of their world...
by retreating into its past.
- Mercy on us. It's spirits.
- No, no. No, no, no.
These are friends of mine.
They're--
[Kirk]Spock,
are you in the library?
Indeed not. We're in a wilderness
of arctic characteristics.
He means it's cold.
- Can you get to the library?
- There is no library, Captain,
at least
not that we can see.
-We are at the base of an ice cliff.
-Explain.
Just before you disappeared,
Captain,
I discovered a machine which
Mr. Atoz called the atavachron.
It must have been tied in
to the tape viewer somehow.
Opening time portals
to the past.
You crossed through into the period
which you were viewing.
I was looking over some
material about their Ice Age.
I am here, evidently,
because I stepped through...
at the same instant
as Dr. McCoy.
- Yes.
- [Approaching Footsteps]
My friends are coming back
with reinforcements.
There's the mort's
accomplice. Arrest him.
We are the law, and do require
that you yield to us.
- On what charge?
- Thievery and purse cutting.
- That is a mistake. I'm no thief.
- [McCoy] What’s happening?
- Lord help us. What's that?
- It's spirits.
Away. Away, spirit,
and let honest men approach.
- Keep talking!
- [Spock] Captain!
[Man] They speak at his bidding.
Stop his mouth and they'll quiet.
[Spock] You must be
close to the portal.
Keep talking now!
- [ Kirk Groans ]
-Jim, what's the matter?
Jim sounded like
he was in trouble.
We may be in trouble ourselves.
We must find shelter.
In this severe cold,
we cannot survive much longer.
- Leave me here, Spock.
- We go together or not at all.
Don't be a fool!
My hands and face are frostbitten.
I can't feel my feet.
Alone you have a chance. Now do
what I say. Go try to find Jim.
- We go together.
- You stubborn, thickheaded Vulcan!
He's suffering from the severity
of your weather.
Unfortunately,
he is the doctor, not l.
[ Humming, Buzzing ]
I'll avoid giving him
any medication at this time.
Perhaps, if he's kept quiet
and warm, he may recover naturally.
It is agreeably
warm here.
What are you called?
I'm called Spock.
Even your name is strange.
[ Chuckles ]
Forgive me. I've never seen
anyone who looks like you.
Why are you here?
- Are you prisoners too?
- Prisoners?
This is one of the places
Zor Kahn sends people...
when he wants them
to disappear.
Didn't you come in
through the time portal?
Yes, we came through the time
portal, but not as prisoners.
- We were
