Trekking Through Compliance: Episode 59 – And The Children Shall Lead

 

In this episode of Trekking Through Compliance, we consider the episode And The Children Shall Lead, which aired on October 11, 1968, Star Date 5027.1.

An alien named the ‘Gorgon’ takes over the minds of the children of colonists on Triacas. He causes the children to mind trick their parents into committing suicide as the colonists feel compelled to destroy themselves to escape what they call “the enemy within.” As the Children are evacuated to the Enterprise to transport to Star Base 4, the Gorgon commands them to take over the Enterprise, which they temporarily do until Kirk and Spock break the spell and destroy the Gorgon.

Compliance Takeaways:

1.     How can you ask the right question?
