[TOS] Season 3, Episode 12: The Empath
Rating: 2
I like the characters in this episode, but the plot feels too drawn out and predictable.

Notes:
Spock, Bones and Kirk find themselves in a big dark room with a lady that can’t speak
Bones wants to call her Gem
Then evil aliens show up with sparkly outfits
Gem can transfer wounds from other people to her, as Kirk is helpfully pointing out
There are guys in tubes
They think they escape, but the aliens were just messing with them
They torture Kirk
But Gem helps him
My favorite part of the episode is when one of them must go to be tortured and Bones knocks Kirk and Spock out with hypos
The aliens say this was all to test Gem, to see if her people are worthy of saving, and so that she can learn to be as cool as Kirk, Bones and Spock
She saves bones and passes the test
