In "The Omega Glory" (the one with the Yang(k)s and Kom(unist)s),

Kirk and party beam down from the Exodus and find the captain alive and 
well, while everyone else on the ship had died.  Why in the world didn't
the Exodus medical staff think that there might be some immunity on the
planet since they were dropping like flies and the good old captain was
doing fine?  What the hell was he doing down there alone?  He couldn't
have figured out a plan for immortality that early; even if he did, why let
the rest of the crew die?  All in all this was a pretty poor episode.
Parallel planet development !!! Give me a break.

Two more notes: The episode summary posted a while ago said that the Exodus'
                captain killed his crew; ain't the way I saw it.
                When Kirk and party were checking out the Exodus, they
                mention that all 4 shuttlecrafts are there. (I mention this
                since the number of shutttlecrafts per ship has been mused
                about in discussions of the Kobahashi Maru.
