Quotes:
Lt. Mitchell:
Hey, man, I remember you back at the Academy; a stack of books with legs! The only thing I ever heard from an upperclassman was, "Watch out for Lt. Kirk! In his class, you either think, or sink!"
Capt. Kirk: I wasn't THAT bad, was I?
Lt. Mitchell: If I hadn't aimed that little blond technician at you...
Capt. Kirk: You what? You... you PLANNED that?
Lt. Mitchell: Well, you wanted me to think, didn't you? I outlined her whole campaign for her!
Capt. Kirk: I almost MARRIED her!
Lt. Mitchell: You better be good to me. I'm getting even better ideas here.

Pretty good. Not as good as "The Cage", but a worthy pilot, er, I mean third episode.
When the episode begins, the rapport between Kirk, Spock, and Mitchell is so good that it almost feels as if you're tuning into the show mid-season, instead of at the very beginning. That's what makes Mitchell's fate all the more tragic.
The moral discussion between Kirk and Spock in the conference room as they decide Gary Mitchell's fate is a highlight. You also get an inkling of how OTT Shatner can get when he's imploring the god-like Dr. Dehner.
There's an amusing blooper in the last scene - the crewman at the communication station appears to be fast asleep!
