Name That STAR TREK Episode...

Ah, the edited guess of Spectre of the Gun is good, as is the guess of Catspaw, but no.

Clue 1: But wait, what are they selling?
Clue 2
: Kirk shows a clever, if completely unanticipated, approach to resolve a violent situation.
Clue 3: Talking about my generation.
 
The Way to Eden?
1. The space hippies are selling their idea of Eden.
2. KIRK: No. No, they tried to destroy us. Let them think they succeeded.
3. A Who song about young people, like space hippies?
 
Journey To Babel?

(I believe there's a central-European language in which "Arena" sounds very much like an invitation to do something anatomically impossible to yourself...:D)
 
Thinking about the Way to Eden, the episode would have more interesting if you replace Dr. Sevrin with Sybok.

It would depend on who would play Sybok. If it's Skip Homeier then it would just be the same thing in different makeup.

No. Good try.

Negative.

Ah, interesting. Or Joanna McCoy as originally envisioned, but frankly I like the actress who played Irina (Mary Ann Rapelye?) and appreciated the character development for Chekov.
 
And The Children Shall Lead?
1.?
2. Kirk summons Gorgan to expose him, instead of a good spanking. :ouch:
3. The kids are of the same generation (children) only which Gorgan can corrupt.

Selling the ice cream, maybe? But no.

Going offline and will wait for a while for anyone else who wants to guess.

I have to justify my random guessing? Ugh.

Mudd's Women

1. lithium crystals or wives
2. Let's Eve think she took the drug, although I'm not sure if there were violence here
3. I was going to guess this at 2 clues, I don't know how this clue fits. Eve doesn't seem too young at the end though, a lot of those "mail order brides" are usually much younger, late teens even.

This won't be the first time I'm wrong, won't be the last.
 
Assignment: Earth
1. "Research for a new encyclopedia?"
2. Phaser stun or trusting Gary Seven at the end.
3. Roberta talking about her generation, wondering if they'll live ti see 30.

You win!!! Good job. Actually not what I was thinking of for Clue 1 but since it recurs in other eps, I can use it in the future, and your explanation was very good and something I hadn't thought of.

Yes, Kirk's tactical decision to stun Seven instead of taking him on hand-to-hand is awesome.
As to Roberta, precisely.

You're up! :bolian:

Clue 1: An unplanned visitor.
Clue 2: Talk about lucky timing.
 
The Alternative Factor?
1. Lazaruses, Lazarii, two dudes named Lazarus.
2. Good timing for Kirk to go through the portal before Lazarus.
