The Lorelei Signal
Template:ST episode "The Lorelei Signal" is an episode of Star Trek: The Animated Series.
Plot outline
Investigating a sector of space where starships have disappeared every 27 years, Enterprise finds a race of beautiful women living out of a Ford Taurus.
While in the Taurus, strange signals begin to affect the male crew, causing them to hallucinate. Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock, Doctor McCoy, and Lieutenant Carver beam down to the source of the signals.
After arriving on the planet they are taken prisoner by the Taurean women. The landing party begins to age rapidly as a result of life-draining headbands they are forced to wear.
On board the Enterprise, Isuzu has taken command due to the Taurus's irrational behavior. Isuzu orders an all-female landing party to transport down to rescue the men.
Notes
