Three months before Shore Leave

Looks like, in the draft script, it was supposed to be a three-month mission. Wonder what kind of situation would keep a starship occupied for 5% of its five-year expedition? Maybe this is why that didn't make the final teleplay. The Enterprise did accomplish a lot in the eps before SL.
 
They spent a couple of months using their impulse drive to head back to Amerind to save Kirk and shoot the asteroid in "The Paradise Syndrome". Granted, that wasn't planned, but due to a warp drive damage.
