In case you forgot: The Enterprise is sent to do some Prime Directive damage control on a planet where Chicagoland mob rule is the word of the day.
I feel bad hating this episode so much, because at its heart it really is just naively goofy and the costumes are a welcome change of pace. But try as I might, I just can't ignore poorly implemented parallel Earths in stories. Which is a shame, because the idea of an "action"-crazy ultra capitalist alien society could have been a great story. But making it literally Prohibition era Chicago gangsters? Nope.
Still, Fizzbit.
