Kirk sure is in a mood this week, but while he has a pretty good excuse in "The Deadly Years," what with crazy space radiation causing him and other members of an away team to rapidly age, he seems to have no excuse in "Obsession," wherein he has been cast as a pseudo-Ahab hunting a white cloud instead of a white whale.
Also this week: space feels small, Starfleet officers feel unprepared for shocks, and away team kit seems poorly thought-out. Also also: Tom Hanks.
