I just saw "Wink of an Eye" for the 256th time and noticed
something.  At the end, as Kirk is about to transport Deela
back to Scalos, she tells him that he will never be able to
get back to normal speed.  He looks to Spock who gives him a
knowing nod.  My question is: if Kirk had a formula that
could "counteract the effects of the Scalosian water"
(McCoy|Spock), why didn't Kirk let the Scalosians use it?
It seems that Kirk wanted the Scalosians to remain in their
accelerated state.  Why?
