[QUOTE]Originally posted by Raw Cadet: [QB] Captains of "The Original Series" certainly did seem to yield a great deal of power, so Kirk may have, indeed, had the authority to maroon Khan. Thus, we are back to the original question. Was that a reasonable decision? Timo makes the point that it may have been unreasonable to do anything else; the nearest Federation outpost could have been months "out of the way," and Ceti Alpha V may have seemed a St. Helena at the time. However, barring those circumstances, I still think it was a rather poor decision. Leaving a highly intelligent and resourceful man unsupervised is, at best, slightly irresponsible, and, at worst, immoral, say, if it leads to the near destruction of "Enterprise," the deaths of many cadets, the death of Spock, the untimely detonation of the Genesis Device, and the eventual collapse of a pending peace treaty with your government's enemy. I guess the second question is, if one agrees that Kirk made a poor decision, do you hold this against "Star Trek II," or not? If so, is the plot fatally flawed? [/QB][/QUOTE]
