  Episode Summary  
The Enterprise speeds to help a science party on Camus II after receiving their distress call. Upon arriving at Camus II, the Enterprise's landing party finds all but two of the science party dead.

When Kirk sits with her, Janice uses an alien device to switch minds with Kirk, leaving him in a woman's body while she takes command of the Enterprise.

  Episode Notes  
Leonard Nimoy (Spock) is the only actor to appear in all 79 episodes of the series. In second place is William Shatner (Captain Kirk), who appeared in every episode except for "The Cage".
 
This episode was originally due to be aired on March 28, 1969. However, it was re-scheduled following the death of former President Dwight D. Eisenhower on that same date.
 
Leonard Nimoy (Spock) and Majel Barrett (Number One/Nurse Chapel) are the only actors to appear in both this episode and the first pilot, "The Cage".
 
Besides William Shatner, Sandra Smith is the only other actor to ever play Captain James T. Kirk.
 
DeForest Kelley (Dr. McCoy) died thirty years and eight days after this episode originally aired.
 
The last line of the series, "Her life could have been as rich as any woman's. If only...if only" was delivered by William Shatner (Captain Kirk).
 
  Episode Goofs  
Spock tells Captain Kirk (in Dr. Lester's body) that he has never heard of complete life energy transfer being achieved successfully anywhere in the galaxy. However, he himself underwent the process when he exchanged minds with Henoch in "Return to Tomorrow".
 
Despite his death in "The Omega Glory", Lt. Galloway (David L. Ross) returns without explanation in this episode.
