The Enterprise and Klingons both show up at space station K-7
for shore leave. A reluctant Kirk is given the job of protecting
a wheat shipment.
A local trader aboard the station, Cyrano Jones, sells a small,
fuzzy, alien animal called a Tribble to Uhura. Soon both the
Enterprise and the station are crawling with Tribbles. Meanwhile,
Federation and Klingon crews get into a big brawl.
The Tribbles eat the wheat, get sick, then die. It turns out
that the wheat was poisoned. A Federation aid turns out to be
a surgically altered Klingon. The Tribbles are beamed aboard
the Klingon ship.
