Kirk: "I'm the Captain."
Kirk simultaneously solves a murder mystery, serves as an intergalactic tribunal, and seduces a hot 19-year old actress in order to get information.
Bones: "Did it ever occur to you that he simply might like the girl?"
Spock: "It occurred. I dismissed it."
Bones: "You would."
The Captain uses this pimp face...
...to get some info. Spock figures out what's going on independently. Then, with the inside info, they catch the eugenicist butcher and murderer. There's also a certain vengeance-vs-clemency-of-Caesar theme in this episode. There are more precursors to Star Trek 2 in this one as well.
The episode ends with a perfect Hamlet conclusion.
