The first Star Trek motion picture was not well received, so Roddenberry was pushed aside and Harve Bennett hired instead.
He had a little issue, however: he had never watched a single episode of the original series.
He filled this knowledge gap in a hurry, watching all 79 episodes in search for an idea.
And he stumbled on that season 1 episode "space seed".

Whatif Bennett missed that episode and the second motion picture was, well, based on another TOS episode ?

What episode would you have chosen ?

(I don't know much of Star Trek, but I thought it may make for an interesting POD...)

Gentlemen, starts your engines !
