Another ship drops off a teenager that they found stranded on a planet, and Enterprise will deliver the boy, “Charlie,” to the next Starbase. Charlie has been without human contact for many years, and doesn’t have a normal teen’s social skills. This leads to his mishandling several encounters with the female crew. Although Kirk tries to take the boy under his wing, strange events continue to occur, including the destruction of the earlier ship. Charlie appears to be connected in some way, and Kirk must learn Charlie’s secret before the Enterprise is lost, too.

| As certain character aspects were not yet finalised, Spock both shows irritation and smiles at Uhura as she teases him.

Kirk: Hang on tight and survive. Everybody does.
Charlie: You don't!
Kirk: Everybody, Charlie. Me too.

| Charlie: I wanna stay...stay...tay...tay...ay...ay... {fades}

| What Changed in the Remastered Version
General improvements cited on the main series page. The Antares is inserted into the opening shot (it was absent in the original) and here resembles the cargo drone ships from the animated series. The Thasian's face is digitally enhanced to be more clearly human-looking and their ship is a bit more detailed.
