Wikipedia Plot...
The Enterprise investigates the disappearance of a colony of Illyrians, a species that are banned by the Federation due to their genetic engineering. As an ion storm approaches, members of the away team beam back to the ship after contracting a virus that causes them to be addicted to light. Number One has to reveal that she is an Illyrian to explain why she is immune, and a cure is synthesized from her blood. Trapped in the storm, Pike and Spock determine that the colonists were attempting to reverse their genetic modifications so they could join the Federation when they may have created the virus and transformed into plasma-like beings who protect the pair from the storm. Once everyone is cured, Pike and Spock return to the Enterprise where Number One attempts to resign. Pike refuses, and Number One later wonders whether he would have shown more prejudice if she had not helped save the crew. She learns that the virus got through the ship's automatic filter because chief medical officer Dr. M'Benga is using an outdated transporter to hold his sick daughter in stasis until he can cure her condition.
