In this episode of Trekking Through Compliance, I consider the episode Bread and Circuses, which aired on March 29, 1968, and occurred on Star Date Unknown.

The Enterprise has used the light-speed breakaway factor to propel itself backward in time. It can monitor Earth communications while on a historical fact-finding mission to study how Earth survived the turbulent year 1968. While in orbit, the Enterprise accidentally intercepts a transporter beam originating more than 1000 light years away, beaming aboard interplanetary agent Gary Seven and his partner Isis, disguised as a black cat. His mission is to prevent Earth from destroying itself before it can become a peaceful society by destroying an orbital nuclear weapons platform launched by the US.

Chekov notes the arming of the warhead aboard the Enterprise, who attempts to contact Kirk for instructions. When the communicator beeps and the rocket base guard picks it up, Spock nerve pinches the guard and tells Scott to beam Kirk and himself to Seven’s apartment. Here, they watch Seven explode the warhead 104 miles above the ground and meet Seven’s cat, Isis. Records from the Enterprise show that such an event occurred and that it caused the nuclear powers to re-assess the risks of placing hydrogen bombs in orbit.

Compliance Takeaways:

2. A lunch alone is a lunch wasted.

3. Does your organization rotate senior executives through compliance?
