Hi, did you know my greatgrandmother had an affair with James T. Kirk once? Yeah she did! Who she was? Well, she was (and still is...) Dr. Helen Noël, she used to be the Enterprise's phychiatrist (and boy they needed it..hehe).
Here she is, just like her greatgrandson a very good-looking individual!

How did she get involved with captain Kirk? Well, as an attractive young lady on the Enterprise it's very hard to get NOT involved with James Kirk, but it happened when this doctor called Simon van Gelder escaped to the Enterprise showing signs
of manic insanity. Well, doctor McCoy insists Kirk investigates the Tantalus Penal Colony to see what's going on over there. So ok, the Enterprise goes there and Kirk and my greatgranny tour around the place to see if they well, see something...
What they find out is that the director, one doctor Tristan Adams (Adams family?) is using a brainwashing device to not only control the prisoners but also his staff! Well, Kirk and my greatgranny found that totally uncool so they talk to Adams about it. But the silly captain let's himself get convinced it's harmless so he steps into the damn machine himself!
Well, Adams washes Kirk's brain (he had a dirty mind..hehe) to fall in love with my greatgranny (like she was complaining..sheesh!). So they're like kissing and Spock steps in with an expression like "Oh no, not again!" and Kirk went like "What?!?". Spock perform a mind-meld on that Van Gelder character to see what's actually going on in Tantallus. Meanwhile, my brave greatgranny escapes through an airvent and was able to disable (are you following this?) the shield so good old Spock could beam down a security team! Yaaay!
So, Kirk then recovers and runs of to kick Adams butt so hard he'll need to take of his shirt to do a number 2, but he's still weak so after he puches Adams into his own machine Kirk stumbles off (he did that after leaving Scotty's quarters as well I heard, only then large amounts of Scotch whiskey were involved..."wee nip" my ass!). Later he realises he left the dude in there so goes back.. guess what? He's toast, dead! Well, they make Van Gelder sane again (so far that was possible) and they left him in charge of the colony. Well, cool story not? After everyone was back to normal Kirk wasn't that much interested in my greatgranny again.. she felt bad about it, but she knew he kissed her because of the mind-control thingy.. Oh well, c'est la vie!
