This is a pretty good episode, highlighted by Shatners deliciously sneering, sweaty, raging Captain Kirk. I also love the space dog. The concept of a person split in two is always interesting.
But I go crazy wondering why they don't use the Suttlecraft. The design of the Enterprise clearly shows a hanger deck with clamshell doors from the beginning. Maybe they were offloaded for some reason, perhaps overhaul at a Star base.
Even more baffling is why they don't transport down warm clothing, blankets and even a temporary shelter. That is something that always bugged me about Star Trek. Except for the first pilot episode, the crew always beams down with no equipment except Tricorder, Phaser and Communicator. And no warm jackets!
Maybe it's because it is filmed in Southern California - ha,ha.
