"The Counter-Clock Incident" is the sixth episode of the second season of the American animated science fiction television series ''Star Trek'', the 22nd episode overall. This episode was also the second season finale as well as the series finale. It first aired in the NBC Saturday morning lineup on October 12, 1974, and was written by Fred Bronson under the pen name "John Culver". Bronson would eventually work on two ''Next Generation'' episodes ("Ménage à Troi" and "The Game"). Set in the 23rd century, the series follows the adventures of Captain James T. Kirk (voiced by William Shatner) and the crew of the Starfleet starship ''Enterprise''. In this episode, the ''Enterprise'' is unwillingly pulled by a smaller craft into the heart of a supernova and finds itself in another universe. ==Plot== On stardate 6770.3, the Federation starship ''Enterprise'' is taking its first commander, Commodore Robert April (voiced by James Doohan), and his wife, Sarah (voiced by Nichelle Nichols), to a diplomatic conference on the planet Babel and his planned retirement ceremony, when it encounters a ship flying at fantastic speeds directly into a supernova. The ''Enterprise'' attempts to assist by grabbing the vessel with a tractor beam and locking onto it, but instead both ships are pulled through the supernova and into a negative universe where time flows backwards and "everything works in a counterclockwise fashion." Consequently, everyone aboard the ship begins to grow younger. The young woman piloting the ship, Karla Five (voiced by Nichele Nichols), takes them to her homeworld, Arret (Terra, backwards), and seeks the help of her son, a much older man named Karl Four (voiced by James Doohan). In a race against time for the increasingly de-aging ''Enterprise'' crew, they work out a solution for getting back home. With Captain Kirk and his crew members reduced to children, "April, now a thirty-year-old man, retakes command and must bring the ''Enterprise'' to safety before it's too late."〔 The attempt to get back home is successful, and then he and his wife, Sarah, use the transporter to restore the rest of the crew to their proper ages. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Counter-Clock Incident」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
