10/10. Excellent episode. I submit myself to the will of Landru.

Dang. Since it was Kirk I was sure #7 would be "affection."

Not that it would have helped my score all that much.

8/10, Kirk convinces a computer to kill itself, which happened several times in the series run.

If writers become part of series long time contributors, they are wont to repeat material,
especially if it's been a few years since they first used it.
The last season of McHale's Navy recycled material from earlier seasons.
John Wayne's later Westerns raided his earlier flicks for bits that worked, such as
his almost feral canine sidekick, "Dog" from Hondo.
After they became "That Girl" writers, "Dick Van Dyke Show" scribes Bill Persky and Sam
Denoff recycled quite a bit from their Van Dyke days.
Such as Rob Petrie's songs "Attila the Hun" and "Guns of Navarone".
They had Don composing and singing them as well on "That Girl".

Good idea! You've earned four "Oh Robs" out of a possible five.

10/10. Entertaining episode that is about a hot topic today, the potential dangers of AI.
The clock tower ("the Red Hour") was constructed specifically for this episode on the Desilu 40 Acres backlot.
