Powers and Baron pitched a story based on a reptilian race following a code of honor similar to the bushido code of the samurai. This was developed into the final story, which was described as having a “1940s tribal Africa” theme by staff writer Tracy Tormé.[2] The episode was received negatively amongst cast, crew, fans, and reviewers, and has been called “quite possibly the worst piece of Star Trek ever made”

It would rule if someone would just throw copyright lawyers into a pit
