8 out of 10. I remembered that episode pretty well, but not that well. Supervisor 194 and McKinley base stumped me.

8/10. Don't remember, on question #5, the device being called a servo.And there was still a lot that Gary Seven did not tell the Enterprise crew of his origin and how he could transport thru space. And being unaffected by Spock's neck pinch.

I believe it is in the climactic scene in Seven's office, when Roberta Lincoln has the device and points it at Kirk. Seven snatches it from her hands saying something like "Careful! Servo's set to kill.." before he hands it over to Kirk as a gesture of good faith.

Great guest actor playing Seven but I would say this is the worst episode of the series.

"Highly Illogical"
Love this episode and the storyline and especially Robert Lansing as Gary Seven. One of my favorite actors and his cat companion. Cool feature. 🖖🚀🪐🛸🖖

It makes you wonder what might have been if the pilot had been turned into a series. There definitely were some interesting elements. Especially for 1967-68.

Yes, I agree Mempatfan. But was this episode pilot or the series finale? Took the quizz twice and got two different answers for # 10. Series finale and pilot. Hmmm 🤔 "Highly Illogical"

9/10. Intriguing pilot that would have made a good weekly series.
Ironically, around the same time Irwin Allen had a similar science fiction series proposal with a very similar premise: The Man From The 25th Century. The story was about aliens from a technologically superior civilization who have kidnapped a human and brought him to their planet. There, they train him to become a covert agent who is returned to Earth and whose mission is to sabotage a defense shield preventing the aliens from invading Earth. Their human agent, played by James Darren (The Time Tunnel) comes to realize his alien superiors are evil and he changes his allegiance to his home planet and fellow humans.
A demo reel was created for this but not a full-fledged pilot.

3/10 Interesting to see Spock wearing a toque.

A note on the path of Hollywood redevelopment. Roddenberry reworked this concept into 1974's "The Questor Tapes", the pilot for a series with the Gary Seven character re-framed as "Questor", an alien Android. Like Seven, Questor had a human assistant. The network again passed. (Well, sort of. They wanted premise changes that Roddenberry would not make.)
HOWEVER... The android character was again re-worked by Roddenberry, this time into 1987's "Star Trek: The Next Generation" as "Data". Anyone ever hear of him?

I knew Questor and Data were connected, but I had no idea that "Questor Tapes" was a reworking od "Assignment Earth." Cool.

I love all the Logan's Run references.

5/10… I liked Spock holding the cat. He was “strangely drawn to it”. That’s was I remember from the episode. 🐈‍⬛

That part was cute. Too bad they didn't have a question about it!
