    Summary

    After attempting to save the lives of cadets caught in an accident, Fleet Captain Christopher Pike was exposed to high level of delta radiation that left him essentially trapped in his own body--unable to move and unable to speak. To spare his former captain this dire fate, Spock, with help from the Talosians, took matters into his own hands and returned Pike to Talos IV where Pike could live an illusionary life, unencumbered by his physical condition.

    Una Chin-Riley strongly disagreed with Spock's actions, refusing to believe that Chris couldn't be cured. Meanwhile, on Talos, Chris learns that the Talosians' offer of help will only go so far.

    Summary

    Conversations with Christopher Pike during the Menagerie, and on Talos IV afterwards.

    -

    "You know, there are some things you never really lose from being a test pilot. Being able to get into the cockpit of a new ship and figure it out quick, get something moving at full impulse and have it feel like it’s an extension of yourself in - a day. But after what happened…” he shakes his head slightly. “It’s like trying to fly a ship I don’t know, that’s not like anything I’ve flown, but the ship is filled with…”

    “Fire and smoke.”

    “Yes.”

    -

    “Why should I force myself through unnecessary pain just to fit? To interact with the world in a way someone else considers real and correct? I’m happy.” She shakes her head. “I don’t need to walk through their world in pain just to have them look at my body with pity. My body - that’s not my self. My body walking away from here, through another world, onto your ship, even - that’s not what makes me present. It doesn’t mean I can be myself there.”

    -

    “Maybe it doesn’t have to be a choice between limited interaction in our world full of pain,” Una continues, “or less pain here but interaction that’s … limited differently. We can change it."
