Mirror Mirror SEASON 2 EPISODE 4

Man, this was a fun episode. A transporter malfunction (*cough* The Enemy Within *cough*) causes Kirk, McCoy, Scotty and Uhura to appear in a mirror universe (*cough* The Alternative Factor *cough*), where the peaceful federation has been replaced by a fascist 'empire'. We have a beardy Mr Spock, a sneaky, cowardly Chekov (no wig
), a ambitious, murderous Sulu, and my personal favourite, Uhura in a two-piece uniform. To expand on Uhura's outfit and look, HUBBAHUBBA WOOF WOOF!
This is great fun, because of the alternate universe is riddled with backstabbers and murderous ambition, and our more moral heroes have to navigate this. We get fights (where beardy Spock bitchslaps Kirk instead of punching him), we get Uhura cockteasing Sulu and then pulling a knife on him when he gets too rampant, and we get 3 redshirts evaporated.
There's also a bit near the end where Kirk and McCoy try and trashtalk Spock, but Spock puts them down like the bitches they are.
And we even get a speech from Kirk trying to persuade the beardy Spock to start a revolution against the evil Empire. Now, THAT'S a story that should have also been sequeled in the movies. Imagine if Star Trek 5 was Kirk and crew getting flung back into this universe, to find evil Kirk as head of the empire, and beardy Spock as the head of the rebellion? How marvellous would that have been?
Also, did I mention Uhura's two piece?
