Star Trek TOS: Episode 48 - A PRIVATE LITTLE WAR

Many people assume that this is me attacking Kirk, but it’s actually my brother. His name is Mugato, but unlike MY name which is pronounced Mugato … his name is pronounced Mugato. Understand? Also, I’m always hearing how “all Mugato’s look the same”, we’ll this is untrue. Anybody can see the difference between the two of us!

Me

My brother

There are many different elements to this episode. How they managed to squeeze it all into 50 minutes is pretty impressive. First we have the whole “incident with my brother”. Kirk, Spock and McCoy beam down to my planet. Kirk had been here years earlier and made friends with Tyree. Honestly I find this guy to be a big pussy, but damn his wife is hot (although not so much the face … also she’s a witch!). Note: the woman that plays the wife, graduated from Michigan at the age of 19. Suddenly my brother attacks Kirk and bites him. One thing you must understand about him is that he’s a bit slow. One time he jumped through a second story window, a CLOSED second story window, and for no good reason either. He also pretended to go on a week’s vacation, even posted daily on Facebook about his escapades … meanwhile he never left his bedroom!

He can be a little horny sometimes

Kirk nearly dies from the bite but the witch lady saves him. But, not before Spock gets shot with a flint lock rifle! Such twists. But wait there’s more! Kirk and McCoy discover a Klingon (and this one actually almost looks like the TNG ones), he’s secretly supplying one side of the planet with arms. The Klingons are aiding a revolution in order to pave the way for their take over … or they could have just come in and taken over??? But anyway, Kirk decides to supply the other side with arms (or as he calls it “give snakes to the garden of Eden”). This is a tough choice because he is now starting an all out war on this planet … but it’s also creating a balance of power.

All seems normal until the very end, when everything goes CRAZY! Tyree’s wife is taken and nearly gang raped, then one of the guys stabs her in the chest. McCoy then gets grazed with a bullet and an all out brawl ensues. It’s an old school hand to hand brawl. Kirk looks over and notices the formerly peaceful Tyree straddling a guy and bashing his head in with a giant rock. Meanwhile back on the Enterprise: Spock is cured by getting violently slapped in the face – hilarious.

Kirk and McCoy beam up and leave my planet in shambles. You may be wondering “Mugato, what the hell where you doing this entire time?” …. Hahaha, I was doing coke!
