Synopsis: A piece of one of history's great puzzles falls into place when Kirk's crew comes across the S.S. Botany Bay. The old-style, pre-warp sleeper ship contains the bodies in stasis of Khan Noonian Singh, a genetically engineered strongman and one of the great leaders of Earth's Eugenics War. Although he and his superhuman brethren disappeared from history without a trace, in his reappearance Kahn soon displays the ambition and strength that conquered a quarter of the Earth. Kirk is forced to hang the fate of the entire ship on the dictator's new lover, the adoring ship's historian Lieutenant Marla McGivers, seduced by Khan and traitor to the crew.
