ST: Interstellar bordello?

Tonight's offering is Mudd's Women. Apparently this is a famous episode, but I know little to nothing about it coming in. So far it looks like he's an intergalactic pimp. Fun times and ruinings of the ending after the jump.

Sulu had to help his shipmate recover his composure after dealing seeing the women arrive who have a strange attraction to men. Except, Sulu didn't seem to be bothered by them, though he claimed to be.

Mudd has the most ridiculous earring. But he has a fantastic moustache.

There was an excellent scene that involved the interrogation of Mudd that seemed like the precursor to the excellent scene from the Simpsons where Moe is interrogated about the shooting of Monty Burns.

Turns out that not only is Mudd a pimp, he's also a drug dealer. What a jackass. He has the women hooked on some sort of drug that keeps the ageing process at bay (or the appearance of it, at any rate) and they do what he tells them in order to keep him from cutting off the supply. This is almost as crazy as the previous episode where Kirk's evil side tries to rape Yeoman Rand.

The miners on Rigel 12 have circular playing cards. Which is pretty cool; I have a deck of those as well.

I cry aloud with mirth and merriment. They did the whole, you didn't really need the drug, you had inside you the whole time. I can't believe it.

No one died this episode.
