Description

At Gamma Hydra IV, a landing party consisting of Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Scott, Chekov and Lieutenant Galway find that most of the colonists (all of whom should have been in their 20s) have died of old age; the two survivors appear to be in their 70s. Upon returning to the Enterprise, five members of the landing party begin aging rapidly. Lieutenant Galway (obviously the "bit player of the week") dies, and it seems the same fate will befall Kirk, Spock, McCoy and Scotty soon. Their only hope is in Lt. Chekov, who is mysteriously showing no effects of aging.
