have been attempted.
No response.
Now using standard
interstellar symbols.
Keep trying.
Aye, sir.
Magnification 10,
Mr. Chekov.
Aye, sir.
38,000 and closing.
Well, Scotty?
It beats me.
But isn't she a beauty?
Interesting design.
I've never seen
anything like her.
And ion propulsion
at that.
They could teach us
a thing or two.
Life forms,
Mr. Spock?
One.
Humanoid or similar.
Low level of activity.
Life-support systems
functioning.
Interior atmosphere.
Conventional
nitrogen oxygen.
[Beep Beep Beep]
Instruments indicate
a transferral beam
emanating from the area
of the humanoid life form.
Directed at what?
The Enterprise bridge,
Captain.
Security guard.
Security guard
to the bridge.
I'm Captain James Kirk.
This is the star ship
Enterprise.
Space --
the final frontier.
These are the voyages
of the star ship Enterprise.
Its five-year mission --
to explore
strange new worlds ...
to seek out new life
and new civilizations ...
to boldly go where
no man has gone before.
What happened?
Helm status, Mr. Sulu.
No change from
last reading, sir.
Condition reports
from all decks, Lieutenant.
Aye, sir.
Spock. Where's Spock?
Jim! Jim!
Yes, what is it?
Better come down to sickbay
right now.
All right.
On my way.
Deck Five,
personnel, no damage.
Now.
Functioning.
Thank God.
Spock.
What happened?
I found him.
Like this?
No, not like this.
What happened?
I don't know.
You've got him
on complete life support.
Was he dead?
He was worse than dead.
What do you mean?
Jim --
Bones,
what's the mystery?
His brain is gone.
It's been removed
surgically.
How could he survive?
It's the greatest
technical job I've ever seen.
Every nerve ending
in the brain
must've been
neatly sealed.
Nothing ripped,
nothing torn,
no bleeding.
It's a medical miracle.
If his brain
is missing ...
then Spock is dying.
No.
That incredible
Vulcan physique
hung on until
the life-support cycle took over.
His body lives,
the autonomic functions
continue ...
but there is no mind.
That girl.
Aye.
What girl?
From that ship.
She took it.
I don't know why ...
or where ...
but she must've
taken it.
Bones, how long can you
keep him functioning?
I can't give you
any guarantee.
That's not good enough.
If it happened to us,
I'd say indefinitely.
But Vulcan physiology
limits what I can do.
Spock's body is more dependent
on that tremendous brain
for life support.
Then we'll
take him with us.
Take him where?
In search of his brain,
Doctor.
The moment we find it,
we'll restore it to his body,
or we lose him.
Jim, where are you
going to look
in this
whole galaxy?
Where are you going to look
for Spock's brain?
How are you
going to find it?
I'll find it.
Even if you do,
I can't restore it.
I don't have
the medical technique.
It was taken out.
It can be put back in.
But I don't know how.
The thief that took it
has the knowledge.
I'll force it
out of her.
If you don't find it
in 24 hours,
you better forget
the whole thing, Jim.
You and Scotty ...
have Spock ready.
I've got it again.
An ion trail.
Where does
the trail lead?
System
Sigma Draconis.
Lock on, Mr. Sulu.
Maximum speed.
Warp 6.
No question
about the trail?
No mistake, sir.
Captain 's Log,
Star date 5431.4.
for 15 hours
and 20 minutes
we have been following
the ion trail
of the spaceship
that has Spock's brain.
Time left to us --
8 hours and 40 minutes.
Captain,
I've lost the trail.
All scanners,
extreme sweep.
Aye, sir.
Well?
Nothing, sir.
No signal at all,
Captain.
It's gone, sir.
A sudden deaction shift.
We've lost her trail,
but she went
into that system.
Put a schematic of Sigma
Draconis on the screen.
Aye, Captain.
Read out, Mr. Chekov.
Sun, spectral type,
Gamma 9,
nine planets,
three of them,
Class-M
possessing
sapient life
according to reports
and long-range scanning.
She was breathing our air.
She must've gone
to one of
