Storyline
A huge cosmic cloud is reported moving into the outer fringe of the galaxy. Starfleet Command sends the Enterprise to investigate. Sensors indicate it is a strange combination of Matter & Energy. It seems to engulf and feed on the energy of planets. It makes a deliberate course change to head towards the populated planet of Mantilles indicating that it could be intelligent. Kirk sees it as a threat to every planet in the galaxy and if they can't communicate with it and make it stop it will have to be destroyed. Written by tomtrekp

This is the tired old plot line that was used about six times in the original series. There is a life force out there that needs energy to survive. The Enterprise encounters a cloud that is "eating" everything in its path. Unfortunately, one of the things is a planet with millions of people on it. They will all die when the planet is consumed. The ship must negotiate the inside of the thing and avoid touching the walls. It would cause an explosion and destroy the ship. Since this cloud is sentient, what can Enterprise do to make it understand their plight? Sadly, the solution is tired and far-fetched, to say the least. I imagine some of these plots were thrown together with a deadline in sight.
