Captain Kirk's "but you're no god to us Mister" Best. Line. Ever.

Hahaha Captain Kirk is legend. Also in this episode he says “Apollo is no God.” Such defiance.

[@julianmelan85]

Why defy & deny the Gods who made Man?

[@skipstalforce]

For those who don't know Apollo returns 50 years later to reprise his roll in the first episode of Star Trek Continues. I recomend it.

[@JWBabaYaga]

Role!

[@vernonbolinger9488]

Star Trek continues is a terrific series.

[@davidyoung5114]

Agreed! They re-created the set of the Enterprise so realistically that the production company in charge of STAR TREK told them to stop producing the show, which was a shame. All the episodes in S.T.C. were so good, they could have been considered a fourth season of the original series! Plus having James Doohan's son playing the role his father originated didn't hurt as well!

[@gregshock]

I remember watching this one, when it first aired, well over 50 years ago. Man oh man.

[@jonathancummings6400]

This is my all time favorite episode of the classic Star Trek TV show. It was an awesome performance by Mr. Forrest.

[@LordZontar]

The best scene of the episode is when Apollo is telling Carolyn of the downfall of the Olympians. "Even for a god, there is a point of no return. Hera was first. She stood at the edge of the temple, spreading herself upon the wind. Thinner and thinner, until only the wind remained." The dialogue combined with the musical score made the scene quietly epic.

[@ACLTony]

It sort of ties in the Star Trek Continues series where Athena disappears from an aged Apollo's hands after he life energy dissipated. Forest delivered a fine performance.

[@sdrfz]

"KIRK: Give me your hand. Your hand. (she does) Now feel that. Human flesh against human flesh. We're the same. We share the same history, the same heritage, the same lives. We're tied together beyond any untying. Man or woman, it makes no difference. We're human. We couldn't escape from each other even if we wanted to. That's how you do it, Lieutenant. By remembering who and what you are. A bit of flesh and blood afloat in a universe without end. The only thing that's truly yours is the rest of humanity. That's where our duty lies. Do you understand me? "

Mind-blowing episode. Easily one of top 5 best episodes from all the Star Trek Universe. Michael Forest(Apollo) was perhaps the best and most dynamic guest Stars to appear in the Trek episodes. I can watch this over and over.

[@ardalla535]

He's rather convincing as Apollo. I doubt if the real Apollo would have been nearly that patient with Kirk though. Kirk is totally arrogant and dismissive. Apollo would have exploded his head as a lesson to the others.

[@perfectstrangers4031]

Kirk was on a booty call at the academy and missed the Apollo missions lecture so...no respect

[@mainman3476]

Yeah, the Greek gods had no patience for insolence. Kirk would've died the moment he defied Apollo.

[@CaptGage]

Plus, Kirk was the star.

[@june3420]

No. Apollo is more patient than you think. Just because you are a God does not mean you like to hurt people.

[@Turrican60]

​@@june3420 Are you sure of that? If a 'god' didn't wish to hurt people, then souls wouldn't be sentenced to an eternity of burning in hellfire. Good job I don't believe in such shit or I'd be worried about the mental welfare of the 'god' concerned...

"You will worship me".

[@astrofan1993]

There's actually a webcomic with a somewhat similar concept to this episode, called Wayward Sons: Legends. In that webcomic, both the Greek and Egyptian Gods were aliens who crash landed on Earth due to a freak accident involving a powerful object called the Star Core, gaining their powers in the process. They meet the indigenous humans, who immediately worship them as deities. They even come across the ancient Mesopotamian city of Uruk, where the being whom we know of as Hercules becomes the father of Gilgamesh with the city's queen, Ninsun. While it has not updated in years (there have been many failed attempts to restart publishing of the webcomic), and stopped updating during the middle of a story arc, it is definitely worth the read if you want a more sci-fi twist to classic Greek, Egyptian, and even Mesopotamian Mythology. Eagle-eyed readers will also notice a reference to Star Trek in one of the pages, where one of the characters says, "It is green." So check it out if you ever have the chance!

This episode is underrated. Might be a bit of a guilty pleasure, due to the lack of subtlety and some predictability according to some people. But the climax is awesome. It wasn't overcomplicated, of course, and the climax rocked. The repeated thunderclap was a slice of cheese though, LOL. I read once that a the end Lt. Palamas was originally going to be knocked up by Apollo. That would have been an interesting ending. Many people think these episodes, along with "How Sharper Than A Serpent's Tooth" in the Animated Series, "New Adam, New Eve," on Space: 1999, and Star Trek V, are pointless because the antagonist never turns out to be a god. Still intrigues me, though, the whole ancient astronaut theory, whether it's true or not.
