Spock gets a disease that attacks his bloodstream. There is only one place to get the stuff needed to cure him. Unfortunately, it takes too long to get there. Spock will die unless they have a rendezvous with a cargo ship. That ship is attacked by Orions (pronounced or-ee-ons). They are pirates and attack the cargo ship, taking everything on board. They are not open to negotiations because they will anger the Federation. Kirk meets with one of them. They have a code of death they live by. The ending is pretty weak and not much fun.
