TOS s3e19 “Requiem for Methuselah”
All mind controlling/altering magic is much less ethical than even Necromancy
puts on tinfoil hat For the entirety of his journeys, Spock uses his telepathic powers off camera to manipulate his starship captains as useful idiots that can take the fall for any error while he executes his personal agendum
puts on a second, larger tin foil hat All of the Vulcans are actually using their telepathy to puppeteer humankind to remotely fulfill their own agendum
puts on a third, even larger tinfoil hat The Talosians are actually using their telepathy to puppeteer Vulcankind into puppeteering humankind to remotely fulfill their agendum
puts on a fourth, solar-system scale tin-foil hat The Taelons from Earth: Final Conflict are actually using their skrill to puppeteer Talosiankind into puppeteering Vulcankind into puppeteering humankind to remotely fulfill their agendum, as of 3 years ago when they came. Among this pupeteering chaos, William Boone is searching for the truth… until he gets killed off, upon which weird half-human alien baby who instantly grows into an adult, who I think then searches for the truth? I don’t know much after that - masochism can only get you so far in that series before you turn it off.
I can tell you copy and pasted part of my comment because I am possibly the biggest stickler in the world for grammatically-correct-but-still-parsable unusual singular and plural forms of nouns in my formal-ish writing, in this case “agendum”.
That’s a lot of tinfoil.
“K, you ever flashy thing me?”
“No.”
“I’m not kidding, K, you ever flashy thing me?!”
“No.”
That last movie 😭
I mean no, but that’s probably because Spock mind melted it out of my brain too
Third season. Enterprise had a gas leak.
Just in case anyone hasn’t seen it/doesn’t get this, it’s a Community reference.
Feel like Enterprise had a gas leak the whole time, but I just got to the third* season, so I guess I’ll see. I don’t understand how it could possibly get any more unhinged.
Between the shootout in the “OK Corral” setting, Kirk’s body taken over by a woman, and floating Abraham Lincoln… well, you could be onto something.
Here, let me just let me quickly perform the equivalent of mental rape to help you forget about that robot pussy
A point that was made on Troi multiple times and once more on T’Pol. Berman’s definitely going to the special hell.

Dalinar, be reasonable
If there was ever a time for intervention…
