Stardate 6063.4 A mysterious probe that scanned a Federation system and sent a signal into outer space is pursued by the U.S.S. Enterprise, which follows its propulsion trail to see if it can catch the probe. While tacking the probe, the Enterprise encounters an alien vessel that is surrounded by a magnificent energy field which proceeds to encompass the Federation ship. The alien ship transforms itself into the shape of a large feathered serpent which reveals itself as Kulkukan of ancient Mayan-Aztec legend. Upset over being forgotten by Earthlings, Kulkukan transports Kirk, Scott, McCoy, and Ensign Dawson Walking Bear to his ship to solve an enigmatic puzzle. If they succeed, Kulkukan will reveal himself. If they fail, the crew will all perish. The four crew members are transported to an Earth-like city filled with many cultures and must force a light source to strike a certain space on an ancient pyramid. When they accomplish the task, Kulkukan appears as the winged serpent, alleging to be their master. Transported to an ominous "life-room," the crew members notice a variety of creatures from around the galaxy, including the ferocious, but now peaceful, Capellan power-cat. Kirk explains that they cannot accept Kulkukan as their master, despite his contributions to mankind. On the U.S.S. Enterprise, Spock discovers a way to break the energy field surrounding the ship, distracting Kulkukan from the other crewmen. The men release the animals from their cages, thereby creating a chaos which Kulkukan is unable to control. The power-cat traps Kulkukan and prepares to kill him; Kulkukan is forced to reveal himself as a mortal. Kirk saves Kulkukan and thus teaches him a valuable lesson about human survival. Kulkukan leaves as an old, broken mortal, and Kirk decides that the price of infinite knowledge is too high to pay.

Stardate 6770.3 The U.S.S. Enterprise is escorting Commodore Robert April and his wife Dr. Sarah April, the first captain and chief medical officer of the U.S.S. Enterprise, to Commodore April's retirement ceremonies on Babel. While en route, an alien vessel passes the U.S.S. Enterprise at warp 36 toward heading directly into the Beta Niobe nova. Locking onto the alien ship with the tractor beam, the U.S.S. Enterprise is dragged along, unable to break free; both ships fall into the nova and arrive in an antimatter universe where time flows backwards. The alien ship's pilot, Karla Five, is an explorer from the reverse universe who accidentally became lost in our universe. He leads the U.S.S. Enterprise to his home world of Arret to help find a way back into normal space. On Arret, the crew encounter an old man, who is Karla Five's son, and a baby, his father. The crew begin to notice that they too are getting younger as they remain in the negative universe. In time they discover a dead star that corresponds to the nova in the positive universe; it is the gateway for the U.S.S. Enterprise's return. Though Karla Five's ship is strong enough to pull the starship through the nova, the Enterprise crew is now too young to pilot it. Commodore April, now a young handsome man, takes command of the ship steering it back through the nova. Using the transporter, April restores the crew to their proper age. The Aprils consider remaining young, but instead decide that they have lived their lives to the fullest. Once back to their original ages, the Federation decides to change the mandatory retirement age and the Aprils are able to continue their careers.
