Line 10:
Finally finding a moment to take refuge alone, our four man crew [[Huddle Power|attempt to figure out what happened]]. They reason that an ion storm around the planet distrupted the transporter and sent them to a [[Mirror Universe]] by accident, swapping them with their own counterparts from this universe. They make a plan to return home, replicating the unique situation that brought them here. But until then they will need to [[Fish Out of Water|try and blend in]] as best they can. As for the unsettling thought of what their counterparts are doing, it turns out that Spock back in their own dimension has it under control; their barbaric character was immediately obvious to him and he had them hauled to the brig right away.
In his quarters, Captain Kirk meets [[Girl of the Week|Marlena Moreau]], who introduces herself as "[[Fetish Fuel|the Captain's woman"]]. He resists the temptation to [[Boldly Coming|Boldly Come]], instead subtly pressing her for information. Moreau introduces Kirk to the real source of his evil counterpart's power: [[New Powers
Our crew put their plan into action. While Lieutenant Uhura distracts Evil Sulu from his security monitoring board, Scotty shorts out the main phaser couplings and siphons power off to the transporter. Kirk, in the meantime, has to deal with an [[Klingon Promotion|assassination attempt]] by Evil Chekov, and another possible attempt from Evil Spock. In the sickbay, a fight breaks out between the crew and Evil Sulu's gang of thugs. Marlena Moreau evens the odds by using the Tantalus field to [[Unperson|remove]] Evil Sulu's gang, and our crew triumph. But Evil Spock arrives on the scene. His curiosity about the crew's bizarre behaviour since returning from the surface has been piqued, and he performs a [[Mind Rape]] on the doctor to get the full story.
Line 39:
* [[Agony Beam]]: Both the Agony Booth and the Agonizer are classic examples.
* [[Beard of Evil]]: The [[Trope Maker]] and the [[Trope Namer]]. Ironically, Mirror Spock is just about the ''least'' evil person in the Mirror Universe.
* [[A Day in
* [[Designated Girl Fight]]: Uhura and Marlena. Doubles as a [[Curb Stomp Battle]], as Uhura totally owns Marlena from the word "go".
* [[Disintegrator Ray]]: The Tantalus Field.
