The one with Vaal.
The inhabitants of Gamma Trianguli VI are gentle and childlike 'Feeders of Vaal'. Vaal is a powerful intelligent machine that is draining energy from the Enterprise, and sees them as a threat.
Of all the episodes involving the destruction of a computer, this is the worst. The "Garden of Eden" analogy complete with "fruits of knowledge", "serpent" and "the apple" is strained.
Landon tells Chekov that without Vaal the planet would be a paradise. So, explosive rocks, plants that shoot poison darts and extremely dangerous weather condtions are a paradise, or is Vaal meant to be responsible for those too?
