I was confused for a minute, until I realized you meant Pilgrims of Eternity. (And yes, they are official episodes to me, too!)
Tribble Revolution (TOS, etc.)
Incensed at their mistreatment pretty much everywhere, the tribbles become sentient and revolt, electing first Porthos, and then M'Ress, and then Spot, as their leader, a kind of god-monarch. The Federation is on the brink of extinction, due to the tribbles' secret fluff weapon, when Picard and Sisko band together to create a giant electric razor, which they plug into the USS Voyager.

Lots More Time Travel (ENT)
People from the 33rd century went to the 17th century to stop people from the 26th century from interfering with events in the 20th century that triggered a 27th century event that prevented the universe from being destroyed in the 31st century. So people from the 28th century came back to the 22nd century to bring Archer to the 25th century to become Future Guy so he could prevent the 27th century people from destroying the Federation in the 24th century. Shakespeare is involved. He falls in love with Lwaxana.

Not got an episode title, but think that it might qualify as an ENT episode.
Whilst testing the new transporter system, a quantum malfunction creates a new life form from the polystyrene packing beads surrounding a test item. Aware, and increasingly intelligent as they develop, the polystyrene beads replicate to the point the they fill up the interior of NX-01, ultimately getting into the control system and hijacking the Enterprise, going in search of a new home...

If I may offer a title: For the World is Popcorn, and I Have Touched the Butter (and now need to wash my hands)
That sounds like a Doctor Who episode waiting to happen
Year 2369. Enterprise-X arrives in the orbit of Taganatuga IV.

Nothing odd about the planet, typical class M capable of supporting life.
A ship arrives next to the Enterprise. They hail. Enterprise responds and the aliens welcome them.
Landing party goes to the planet. They are greated with open arms, they have fun and return to the ship.
After an exchange of information with the aliens everybody are happy and continue their voyage.
Wasn't that boring? It was an episode with no problems.

That gives me an idea.
