-: Hi, it's Ethan Peck,
and I'm gonna read to you
this Little Golden Book, as it's called.
Called Too Many Tribbles.
There I am, looking very handsome.
Captain's log, stardate 4523.3.
Captain Kirk and the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise
have received an urgent call
from Deep Space Station K-7.
Could it be a Klingon attack?
Upon arrival, Kirk and Mr. Spock learn their true mission
from an assistant named Darvin.
They must protect a shipment of high-yield grain.
The greedy Klingons will probably try to steal it
for themselves, probably.
While two guards keep the grain secure,
the rest of the crew explores the station.
Lieutenant Uhura meets a trader who sells
furry little creatures called tribbles.
Uh-oh, the salesman gives Uhura
a tribble as a gift.
Uhura loves her new furry pet.
As you can see.
Uhura returns to the Enterprise
with her hungry little tribble.
The next morning, she is shocked to discover
that she has a bunch of new tribbles.
Uh-oh, suddenly, a Klingon battle crew
arrives at the space station.
This could mean trouble, probably.
The Klingons are allowed to board the space station
but can they be trusted?
Not even furry little tribbles like Klingons.
Although, the Klingons say they come in peace,
a fight breaks out!
No one insults the Enterprise
in front of Scotty.
That's right, he's pretty hot-headed.
Meanwhile, back on the Enterprise,
the bridge is covered in tribbles, as illustrated here.
The tribbles got into the air vents
so, they are now all over the ship.
Even in the mess hall
and they're eating everything in sight.
Look at me.
If the tribbles were able to find their way
into the air vents aboard the Enterprise,
they must have done the same in the space station.
Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock beam aboard the space station
and their fears are confirmed.
The tribbles have eaten all the grain.
Mr. Spock notices that some of the tribbles are sick.
Someone must have poisoned the grain.
How'd that work out, huh?
With a little help from Dr. McCoy
and a couple of tribbles,
Kirk discovers that the Darvin is a Klingon spy in disguise.
Darvin was the one who poisoned the grain, unreal.
With their spy revealed,
the Klingons quickly leave the space station.
The crew returns to the Enterprise
but all the tribbles are gone.
Where did all the tribbles go?
It turns out that Scotty transported
the furry creatures to the Klingon ship
where they'll be no tribble at all.
That was lovely, wasn't it?
Thanks for your time.
