"We have established that the thing which destroyed the USS Intrepid and the Gamma 7A system is an incredibly huge but simple cellular being whose energies are totally destructive to all known life. Both Mr. Spock and Dr. McCoy have volunteered to go in a specially equipped shuttlecraft to penetrate the cell, find a way to destroy it, and free the ship.

"With most of our battle damage repaired, we're almost home. Yet I feel uneasy, and I wonder why. Perhaps it is the emptiness of this vessel. Most of our trainee crew have been reassigned. Lieutenant Saavik and my son David are exploring the Genesis planet, which he helped create. And Enterprise feels like a house with all the children gone. No. More empty even than that. The death of Spock is like an open wound. It seems that I have left the noblest part of myself back there, on that newborn planet."
