Obviously Dr. McCoy was killed after being pierced in the heart by the knight so why didn't he report what it felt like to die before he was supposedly repaired?
McCoy wasn't repaired. He was dead too long. He was simply replaced with one of the planet's androids, and for the rest of the series, that's McCoy 2.0. -

One of my favs as well The animated series did a sequel explaining the computer system
A few side notes Angela while running from the Zero and The American Plane (Both were used) Hit here head on a tree knocking here out hence why she appears later
Also Supposedly McCoy continued a relationship w Barrows and They get married
at some point
The Gun Sulu wished for was used till almost the end of the 20th Century
Seldom if ever misfired despite only six shots
And that's my two cents -

One of my favorites. It was an extra pleasure to know that my second favorite writer had a hand in the story, as well.
Interesting about Barrows was how out-of-breath she was after running to where Sulu was shooting his antique pistol. I thought the actress (Emily Banks) might actually have been having a problem there. -

The amazing thing was that she didn't fall down at least once like most women in these old television shows used to do.
At any rate, Emily Banks had that sexy girl-next door thing going on at maximum photon-torpedo levels.
No blah, blah, blah! -

I like this episode. Yes it's very weird, with the Alice in wonderland characters, but I love the beauty in it. The beauty of the planet. The dress Tonia tries on. I love her dress. This episode seems over looked.
It's an episode about making fantasies come true in order to alleviate some kind of diagnosed pain on the part of the person fantasizing. -

Here's a few IMDb trivia items (relevant to this thread) for the episode
The original script featured Yeoman Rand as part of the landing party, but as the character was written out of the series, she was changed to Yeoman Tonia Barrows. Also, in Sturgeon's original script, the Yeoman had a share of close scenes with Kirk. In the rewrites, Gene L. Coon and Gene Roddenberry changed these to feature Doctor McCoy instead and introduced Kirk's old Academy flame Ruth to the story.
Although Kirk appears to address the "Angela" character as "Teller" early in the episode, she is played by Barbara Baldavin, who played Angela "Martine" in Star Trek: Balance of Terror (1966) (her fianc, Robert Tomlinson, died in the episode). The script name for her character was "Mary Teller" and was changed to Angela Martine on the set when somebody noticed that she had already appeared as a named character. In the closing credits, she is identified as "Angela".
When I was a kid, the local TV station would play
Shore Leave
every Halloween. This might seem strange when you consider other, more horror themed episodes (like
Catspaw
) were available and yet it always felt strangely appropriate. -

Yep. The script was written by legendary SF author Theodore Sturgeon, and Emily Banks (Yeoman Barrows) is definitely one of the top ten Trek babes.
There are 8.2 billion people in the world. 8.19 billion of them have never heard of and don't give a fuck about Charlie Kirk. Get over it.
