I finally watched "Plato's Stepchildren"

And it was awesome.  In a 1960s, overacted, low-budget-set sort of way.  Anyways, Gene Roddenberry was such a BAMF that he decided that Star Trek would be full of social commentary and stuff; end result is that the "Plato's Stepchildren" episode is host to the first interracial kiss shown on public television!

Also in the episode: hilarious outfits.

Kirk and Spock get to wear the sexy miniskirts (and OMG the Shat is showing off his gloriously hairless chest!  And a nipple!  Again!) while Uhura and Chapel, who are generally considered to be the sexiest female cast members, are stuck in granny pajamas.  : (
