I read the recent posting which listed all the episodes. However, I saw no mention of one that I remember seeing several years ago. The only thing I recall is the ending in which the crew discovers the 'care taker' of the amusement planet in Shore Leave has died and the machinery has gone berserk due to lack of maintenence. Can anyone tell me if there was a sequel to Shore Leave? Or, am I just confused? Werner Baumgartner

You are thinking of "Once Upon a Planet" One of the animated episodes. It was novelized in _Star Trek Log Three_ by Alan Dean Foster. BTW, I don't think the computer went amuck because of lack of maintenance, but rather, because it could not see the value of humans. -- Name: John Ruschmeyer US Mail: Monmouth College, W.

Yes, it was an animated episode. -- "We are going to give a little something, a few little years more, to socialism, because socialism is defunct. It dies all by iself.

The episode you're refering to is "Once upon a Planet". But it's not a regular (ie. live action) show. It's one of the animated shows and is about 25minutes long. One last thing. The machinery does not go beserk. It explains that it has been serving for thousands of years and wants more. When the keeper died, he left the door open for the machine to go off and do what it wants. Steve Abbott
