[edit] Plot outline

The USS Enterprise receives orders to arrest Federation outlaw Harry Mudd, who is accused of selling fake love crystals. Intercepting Harry on the mining colony of Motherlode, they bring him aboard the Enterprise. Harry explained that he was able to escape the custody of the android planet (where he had been left at the end of I, Mudd) by teaching the androids how to play organized sports. While the entire planet population was cheering on their respective teams at a baseball game, Mudd slipped away.

However, after convincing Nurse Chapel to try and use the love crystals to win the affection of Mr. Spock, Mudd abducts her, steals a shuttlecraft, and escapes to a rocky planet.

During a struggle some of his love crystals are accidentally broken near an air vent and affect the entire crew of the Enterprise.
