Hvorfor ændrede star trek fra gedde til kirk?
Christopher Pike (Star Trek)
I The Menagerie rejser Enterprise, nu under kommando af kaptajn James T. Kirk, til stjernebase 11. Spock, som havde tjent sammen med Pike i "elleve år, fire måneder og fem dage", arrangerer hemmeligt at tage Pike tilbage til Talos IV, selv om rejser til Talos IV er den eneste forbrydelse, der stadig straffes med døden i Stjerneflåden. Spock kommer for en krigsret, hvor hans beviser under retssagen er optagelser fra "The Cage". I slutningen af den todelte episode afsløres det, at hele proceduren var en Talos-genereret illusion for at sikre, at Enterprise nåede Talos. Talosianerne inviterer kaptajn Pike til at tilbringe resten af sit liv blandt dem, "uden at være hæmmet af sin naturlige krop", hvilket var hele formålet med Spocks handlinger. Pike tager imod tilbuddet, og Spock, der nu er renset for alle anklager, tager afsked med ham. Talosianerne viser derefter kaptajn Kirk et billede af Pike i perfekt helbred og genforenet med Vina (en anden scene fra "Buret").

In The Menagerie, the Enterprise, now under the command of Captain James T. Kirk, travels to Starbase 11. Spock, who had served with Pike for "eleven years, four months, and five days", makes clandestine arrangements to take Pike back to Talos IV, despite travel to Talos IV being the only criminal offense still punishable by death in Starfleet. Spock undergoes court-martial, with his evidence presented during the trial being footage from "The Cage". At the two-part episode's conclusion, it is revealed that the entire procedure was a Talosian-generated illusion to ensure that the Enterprise reached Talos. The Talosians invite Captain Pike to spend the remainder of his life among them, "unfettered by his natural body", which was the entire purpose of Spock's actions. Pike accepts the offer and Spock, now cleared of all charges, sees him off. The Talosians then show Captain Kirk an image of Pike in perfect health and reunited with Vina (another scene from "The Cage").
