My own contribution: my first visit in way, way too long to classic Star Trek territory, supplying additional context for Lt. Uhura's miraculous recovery from NOMAD's shenanigans in the relevant second-season episode.

Lieutenant Uhura's recovery from her contact with NOMAD is going less well than it should. Logic dictates intervention is required.
