[@kellyrayburn4093]

Given the circumstances, acting illogically was the most logical course of action that would ensure the success of the goal (to disable the androids). This is not meant as a joke, but is said with all seriousness. There are times when an illogical or desperate act is the only solution that will allow survival and/or make success of the goal possible. Witness the episode 'Gallileo 7'.Venting and igniting the fuel was an act of desperation. But it was the only course that offered *any* hope of survival. Therefore, although it would normally be an illogical act, at the time it was the most logical act available.

Think about what Spock says in _The Galileo Seven_ and process what that means in this situation. _The most logical possible solution was an emotional outburst_ . If it becomes logical to behave illogically, then illogic is only logical. Even more than that, _only illogic is logical_ . I imagine being in such a situation where illogic is the only logical course of action, would be very liberating for a Vulcan, once they've parsed it. If I was writing a Vulcan society, I would create a final test of Sarek's teachings which requires such a situation -- a situation where the only possible logical path is to engage in illogical behavior -- in order to sort those who really get the spirit of his teachings and those simply following out of dogma. Those Vulcans who really *understand* Sarek would be liberated, perhaps acting out their greatest and deepest fantasy, while lesser, more dogmatic minds would simply be confused, stymied or frustrated and would not know when the time had come to relax their control.
